VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 02/13/08 -- Brian
McEwen, President and CEO of Buffalo Gold Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:
BUF)(OTCBB: BYBUF)(FRANKFURT: B4K) is pleased to announce that the
Company has entered into its first off-take agreement with MRI
Trading AG ("MRI") of Zug, Switzerland to purchase gold and copper
concentrate produced at the Furtei Mine in Sardinia. This initial
contract is for up to 5000 tonnes to be produced from the Su Masoni
and Sa Perrima open pits in 2008. The contract is open and can be
extended if required. Production and shipping of the concentrate is
expected to begin in the next few weeks.

Brian McEwen, Buffalo Gold, President and CEO, stated, "This is a
major step for the Company as it establishes the initial revenue
stream for the Furtei mine. We are very pleased to be working with
the MRI Group and look forward to their continued involvement as we
grow our production at Furtei and other projects."

MRI has also expressed an interest in the purchase of concentrate
produced from the underground targets at Furtei. Buffalo currently
anticipates underground production to commence in late 2008 or Q1
2009 following the completion of a positive feasibility study on
those targets. A NI 43-101 report is being prepared by Wardrop
engineering, and will include updated geological models and resource
estimates. This will form the basis of the in-house feasibility study
of underground development, also being completed by Wardrop. Tim
Manula, PGeo is the qualified person defined under NI 43-101
guidelines completing the first report from Wardrop, which is
estimated to take 6 weeks.

Perrima pit, and tailings from the concentrate circuit, through the
on-site CIL plant.
