Saskatoon, Saskatchewan--(Newsfile Corp. - March 31, 2026) - Buffalo Potash Corporation (TSXV: BUFF) (OTCQB: BLPTF) (the "Company" or "Buffalo") is pleased to announce the appointment of Jeff Barber as a Director to the Company's Board of Directors, effective March 26, 2026.
Jeff Barber brings over two decades of experience in investment banking, M&A advisory, and corporate finance with a track record of supporting resource companies through transformative stages of growth. Mr. Barber has served as an Independent Director of Standard Lithium Ltd. (NYSE: SLI) since 2017, a period during which the company transitioned from an early-stage TSXV explorer to its current position as a leading near-commercial development company controlling a world class lithium resource with significant institutional backing. Mr. Barber was also a co-founder and the Chief Financial Officer of a specialty consumer products company, leading its financial strategy from its founding in 2016 until its successful sale at a $630 million valuation. Previously, Mr. Barber co-founded and served as Managing Partner of an M&A advisory firm and held investment banking and equity research roles at Raymond James and Canaccord Genuity. He began his career as an Economist at Deloitte. Mr. Barber is a CFA charterholder and holds a master's degree in finance and economics from the University of Alberta. Mr. Barber's appointment adds significant public and private board experience to Buffalo, characterized by a focus on capital markets and value creation.
Mr. Steve Halabura P.Geo., Buffalo Chief Executive Officer, commented: "We are thrilled to welcome Jeff to the Buffalo Board of Directors. In addition to Jeff's extensive capital markets expertise, his time as a board member of Standard Lithium during the scaling from technical validation through to a large-scale near development asset is directly applicable to what we are now building at the Disley Project. His addition meaningfully strengthens our Board at a critical inflection point as we advance toward our maiden Technical Report and Preliminary Economic Assessment."
Mr. Jeff Barber commented: "The security of critical mineral supply chains has become a defining challenge of our time; as the global priority shifts toward securing independent inputs for food production, potash is increasingly recognized as central to that conversation. Buffalo represents the kind of opportunity that resonates deeply with my background - a project at a compelling stage of development with the assets, team, and strategy to be a meaningful part of the solution. Furthermore, I see a clear pathway to several near-term milestones that have the potential to unlock significant value, and I look forward to joining the Board and contributing to the Company's continued advancement."
