Buffalo Gold Continues to Hit Significant Mineralization at Mt. Kare

Acquires additional license based on geophysics

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(CCNMatthews - Aug. 28, 2006) - Buffalo Gold Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:BUF.U)(OTCBB:BYBUF)(FWB:B4K) is pleased to announce additional assay results from the diamond drilling program at the Mt. Kare Gold Project in Papua New Guinea. Highlights of the drill results include:

- 49.0 metres of 10.4 g/t gold in hole MK06-50

- Including 8.0 meters of 29.2 g/t gold

- 79.1 metres of 3.0 g/t gold in hole MK06-52

- 40.0 metres of 15.3 g/t gold in hole MK06-53

- Including 24.0 metres 24.0 g/t gold

- 26.6 metres of 3.7 g/t gold in hole MK06-56 (Hole abandoned while still in mineralization)

A summary of drill intersections can be found below in Table 1.

Damien Reynolds, CEO, Buffalo Gold, commented, "We continue to be excited by the results of the drilling program. This has led us to increase the exploration license area as we believe we are just beginning to understand the true potential of this world class deposit, especially given presence of the Porgera mine just seventeen kilometres away."

The drilling results confirm the cohesive, high-grade nature of mineralization in the North-Western Roscoelite Zone, (NWRZ). These encouraging results have prompted aggressive drilling to test the extension of the NWRZ as Buffalo works on expanding the resource at Mt. Kare as part of the planned pre-feasibility study.

The recent drilling has greatly enhanced the understanding of the nature of mineralization in the NWRZ. The presence of significant intersections of quartz roscoelite is similar to Porgera's Zone 7 ore body.

Furthermore, re-interpretation of the geophysical data at Mt. Kare suggests that the NWRZ extends directly north towards a known magnetic anomaly and also continues to the north east and extends along the Porgera Transfer Structure towards Red Hill. Induced polarisation anomalies displaying high chargeability are known in both areas. As well, Red Hill has an outcropping intrusive with associated brecciation, alteration and artisanal workings. Consequently, Buffalo is testing both targets as part of the on-going drill program to evaluate the northern extensions of the WRZ.

In addition, there are other targets in the immediate environs of the WRZ which the company plans to further drill. These include:

- Black Zone - will follow a similar programme as the WRZ

- Realgar Zone - effectively the northern extension of the Black Zone

- C9 Zone - possibly the feeder channel for other known mineralized zones

True widths from the drill intersections have not yet been estimated as Buffalo's geological team is completing a reinterpretation of the geology and structure of the Western Roscoelite zone. All samples were analysed for gold by PT Intertek Utama Services in Jakarta, part of an internationally recognized lab testing group with ISO 17025 accreditation at the Jakarta facility. Samples were analysed using a 50g fire assay with AA finish for gold and an aqua regia digestion, ICP-OES finish for silver.

Exploration program tests other highly prospective targets.

The mineralization at Porgera and Mt. Kare is associated with a number of magnetic anomalies related to intrusions controlled by major structures. A number of these features can be recognized in the aeromagnetic data covering the Mt. Kare exploration license and have been identified as exploration targets. These include:

- Lubu Creek - approximately 7 kilometres from Mt. Kare. The Lubu Creek Magnetic anomaly is coincident with alluvial gold. Previous sampling located mineralised float samples with values up to 500 g/t gold.

- Pinuni Creek - along the Porgera Transfer Structure, a major north-east structure covered by gold bearing colluvium. There are several magnetic anomalies associated with this structure.

- Orosa Creek - is a major north-west trending magnetic anomaly with alluvial gold workings.

- Lower Maratane zone - is likely the southern extension of the SWRZ. A grab sample was collected with 8.9 g/t gold.

Buffalo plans an exploration program in these areas which could include:

- Further refinement of the remotely sensed data

- Detailed stream sediment sampling

- Ridge and spur soil sampling

- Detailed Geophysics

- Pitting and trenching

- Diamond Drilling

New License Application - EL 1427 - 100% owned by Buffalo Gold PNG.

Following the encouraging results from the Mt. Kare project this season, Buffalo is expanding its exploration tenure in the region. The company has applied for a new license area "EL 1427" which will be 100% owned by Buffalo PNG. The license is continuous to the south of the current license being explored and will approximately double the area the company has to explore to approximately 360 square kilometres. The property was selected based on the identification of a cluster of magnetic anomalies lying within the confines of the Porgera Transfer Structure in a similar manner to both Mount Kare and Porgera.

A work program similar to the other targets on the existing license is planned.

Here's the agreement,
How is MMR a better bet? Do you know something else? Is there something later, this is old news.

MT. KARE TRANSACTION MOVES AHEAD

Buffalo Gold Ltd. (TSX-V: BUF.U) and Madison Minerals Inc. (TSX-V: MMR) are pleased to announce that Madison has now received TSX approval for the initial option granted by Madison whereby Buffalo can acquire a 49% interest in Madison’s interest in the Mt. Kare Property and Buffalo has paid Madison the initial $100,000 payment due to Madison. Madison has granted Longview Capital Partners Limited (“Longview”) an option to acquire up to a 100% interest of Madison’s 90% interest in the Mt. Kare Property and Longview’s rights to acquire Mt. Kare were, subject to regulatory approval, subsequently assigned to Buffalo.

Buffalo has mobilised its exploration staff to Papua New Guinea and expects to begin exploration fieldwork immediately following the Christmas break.

In order to acquire its interest in the Mt. Kare Property, Buffalo will assume Longview’s obligations under its agreement with Madison as follows:

· Buffalo will complete a preliminary feasibility study by January 4, 2007, including a minimum of 3,000 metres of drilling, and pay Madison, in cash or shares at Madison’s election, a total of CAD$500,000 by October 1, 2006 on a quarterly basis to acquire a 49% interest in Madison Enterprises (PNG) Ltd. (“Madison PNG”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Madison that is the holder of the Mt. Kare Property

· Buffalo can acquire a further 2% interest (51% in the aggregate) by paying, in cash or shares at Buffalo’s election, a further CAD$500,000 on or before February 15, 2007

· Buffalo can acquire a further 14% interest (65% in the aggregate) by completing a bankable final feasibility study by July 4, 2008 at the latest

· After acquiring at least a 51% interest, Buffalo will have the right to acquire the balance of Madison’s interest based on an independent valuation of Madison’s remaining interest for cash or shares of Buffalo or a combination of both

· If Buffalo elects not to acquire Madison’s remaining interest, Buffalo and Madison will enter into a joint venture for the further development of Mt. Kare.
