.U) is pleased to announce that it has been granted an option by a private Australian company, Global Discovery Pty. Limited ("Global"), to acquire a 100% interest in the Murphy Ridge Project located in North East Northern Territory, Australia.

The Murphy Ridge Project is within the same tectonic area and along strike from Laramide Resources' Westmoreland Project in Queensland. Westmoreland is reported by Laramide to have a large existing inferred resource of 17.4M tons @ 1.2 kg/ton U3O8 (greater than 44 million pounds) which ranks it as one of the top ten largest uranium deposits in Australia. This resource calculation was based on work completed prior to the implementation of National Instrument 43-101, however, and is therefore not currently 43-101 compliant.

The Murphy Ridge Project comprises two strategically placed exploration permits totaling approx. 2300 square km. The target is unconformity un·con·for·mi·ty

 style uranium with a setting analogous to the world-class Ranger and Jabiluka Mines, also in the Northern Territory. This style of uranium deposits is the highest grade in the world with Canadian examples that include Cigar Lake and McArthur River.

Australia ranks first in the world in known recoverable resources of uranium with 28% of the total. By contrast, Canada ranks third with 14% but has a leading position in world mine output with 30% of global supply. (For further information on uranium in Australia, see www.uic.com.au).

Buffalo has signed a binding letter of intent on the Murphy Ridge project and has paid Global the initial $50,000 non-refundable payment that provides for a due diligence Research; analysis; your homework.

On completion of the due diligence period Buffalo can exercise its option and acquire 100% of the project by issuing Global 200,000 shares of Buffalo and agreeing to make a further payment of $50,000 on the anniversary date of the option exercise.

Global is a private company with exploration interests in the Northern Territory, Australia. Dr. Andy Wilde and Mr. Mike Raetz are the principals of Global and will work with Buffalo to capture further uranium project opportunities.

Dr. Wilde started his mineral exploration career working for Uranerz Australia, searching for unconformity-type uranium deposits in the Northern Territory of Australia (Rum Jungle Rum Jungle can refer to:
  • Rum Jungle, Northern Territory: former uranium mining area in Australia
  • Rum Jungle (Las Vegas): a popular restaurant & nightclub located at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
 and Westmoreland areas). He went on to complete a Ph.D. on the world-class unconformity-type uranium-gold deposits of the Alligator Rivers The Alligator Rivers is the name of a region in Arnhem Land containing three rivers the East, West and South Alligator River. It is regarded as one of the richest biological regions in Australia with part of the region in the Kakadu National Park.  region (Jabiluka, Nabarlek and Koongarra). Dr. Wilde joined BHP Minerals in 1988, and in 1990 completed a substantial review of global uranium opportunities. More recently he has been involved in research as part of the co-operative research centre in predictive mineral discovery, which included a study of the substantial uranium deposits of the Mount Isa region, and has consulted to a number of Australian and Canadian companies This is a list of companies from Canada.

Uranium prices have improved substantially in the past 24 months; with spot prices rising from below USD USD

The currency market, also known as the Foreign Exchange market, is the largest financial market in the world, with a daily average volume of over US $1 trillion.
$10/lb to current levels almost USD$40/lb. This trend of rising prices is attributed to strong industry fundamentals with present world mine output a little more than half the level of consumption by utilities that are the consumers of all of global uranium supply. This positive pricing picture follows a prolonged bear market dating to the early 1980's.
