BonTerra Resources Inc.: First Drill Hole Nearly Completed on the Ice, Eastern Extension

BonTerra Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:BTR)(FRANKFURT:9BR) (the "Company",
"BonTerra") continues to propel its Eastern Extension Project (the "Property")
forward by drilling on the ice as well as the land. The first drill hole on the
ice is nearly completed on its 100% owned Eastern Extension Gold Project. The
Property is located 170km northeast of Val d'Or, Quebec in the Abitibi
Greenstone Belt. 


BonTerra plans to drill a total of ten (10) shallow (average of 125 metres each)
holes on the ice. Of these ten holes, a total of four (4) holes will be drilled
into the Peninsula Zone. These four (4) holes are being drilled to grow the
Peninsula Zone. In a news release dated February 17, 2011, this Peninsula Zone
assayed 13.00 metres of 7.00 g/t gold (0.20 Oz/ton) including 4.00 metres of
17.02 g/t (0.50 Oz/ton). The second two (2) holes planned for the Peninsula Zone
are 50 metres to the west to test a 140 metre wide high to very high near
surface chargeability anomaly. This very large anomaly has never been drilled
before.


Holes five (5) to eight (8) will aim to extend the strike 270 metres to the
southwest of the original gold intercept referred to in the previous paragraph.
Holes nine (9) and ten (10) will drill additional IP anomalies to the east. Once
all ten (10) ice holes have been completed the Company will have drilled the
gold zones along a total strike length of 590 metres. 


Thomas Clarke, Director, states, "BonTerra believes this is a fantastic
opportunity to create a significant strike extension of the gold zones to the
southwest. The Company is taking full advantage of great ice conditions to get
ten holes completed on the ice before break up. The chargeability of the zone is
very high and appears to correlate with the strike of the zone."
