Developing the next generation of Canadian potash production for a growing global market.
A proven team with a project in the world’s most established potash producing jurisdiction.
Buffalo Potash Corp. is made up of local Saskatchewan residents that have been serving the potash industry with a combined total of over 100 years of natural resource experience. Our local team has invented an innovative way of solution mining potash with our industry knowledge and business expertise. Adapted from ‘tight oil’ horizontal drilling used in the Saskatchewan oil patch, our technology, Horizontal Line Drive (HLD) Selective Solution Mining, is a capital-friendly and environment-friendly way of mining potash.
The Disley Project is located in southern Saskatchewan, approximately 50km northwest of Regina and covers approximately 9,413 hectares.
The Disley Project is located approximately 50km northwest of Regina and covers 9,413 hectares. The property is situated immediately adjacent to the east of the K+S Bethune potash solution mine and north of the Mosaic Belle Plaine potash solution mine(2) – both of which are amongst the largest producing potash solution mines in the world. In the opinion of management, the Disley Project is in one of the most favorable areas of Saskatchewan for potash solution mining (see map) as evidenced by the success of these neighboring projects(1)(2).
Horizontal Line Drive Selective Solution Mining (HLD)
Saskatchewan has solution-mined potash for decades. We’ve engineered what’s next.
Capital Efficient
Small Footprint
Minimal Fresh Water
Highly Scalable
How HLD Works
Our adaptation of Solution Mining drills wells parallel to rich potash seams to dissolve the potash and pump the brine to the surface, where it is crystallized and processed.
Did you know?
Potash is potassium, one of the three essential, irreplaceable crop nutrients. The other two are nitrogen and phosphorus.
Potash is an inorganic mineral found only in a few places in the world, and Saskatchewan is one of them.
Saskatchewan hosts the world’s largest potash deposit and is the global leader in potash production, expertise, and technology.
