BonTerra Resources Inc.: Fugro Commences Airborne Magnetic Survey of the Symphony Property in British Columbia

BonTerra Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:BTR) (FRANKFURT:9BR) (the "Company",
"BonTerra") Fugro Airborne Surveys has commenced an aeromagnetic survey over the
entire Symphony Property (the "Property"). The Property is situated in the
Omineca mining division approximately 29 kilometres southwest of Houston,
British Columbia. The Property is accessed by a well-maintained forestry road
that is situated just east of Owen Lake. The Property comprises one contiguous
block of claims totaling 2975 hectares. BonTerra recently staked additional
claims to consolidate its land position situated in between the Silver Queen
Mine to the south and the Silver Streak property to the north.


Directly bordering the Property to the south is the past producing Silver Queen
Mine. Historical ore grades are 8.72 opt (299 grams / tonne) silver, 0.18 opt
(6.17 g/t) gold, 6.73% zinc, 1.16% lead, and 0.47% copper.


The Silver Queen property is currently being advanced by New Nadina
Explorations. New Nadina has intersected silver, gold and base metal
mineralization on the property. They have completed an aeromagnetic and ZTEM
survey, a titan geophysical survey and diamond drilling. Drilling revealed
grades of up to 493.5 g/t silver, 5.06 g/t gold, 13.5% zinc, 6% lead and 2.88%
copper. The mineralized trend has a general southeast to northwest trend, the
direction towards which the Property is situated. 


The Silver Streak property is situated to the north of the Property. Trenching
on the Silver Streak identified significant mineralization which included 1.99%
Cu and 338 g/t Ag over 33 meters. An inclined diamond drill hole was drilled
underneath this trench in 1991. A zone grading 8.8 meters of 0.49% copper and
258 g/t silver, within 21.1 meters averaging 0.27% copper and 127 g/t silver was
discovered. Another trench excavated in 2002 graded 0.26% copper and 1.91 g/t Ag
over 16.7 meters. The mineralized zone is believed to have a NW-SE strike, the
general direction of the Property.


This DIGHEM Electromagnetic survey with optional Radiometrics will total 308
line kilometres of readings. DIGHEM records magnetic data to measure the earth's
magnetic field which can be interpreted to show changes in bedrock geology to
great depth. The system uses multiple frequency electromagnetic fields to
measure and map electrical conductivity in three dimensions. The DIGHEM EM
system provides the interpretation benefits that can only be realized by a
system employing both horizontal coplanar and vertical coaxial
transmitter-receiver coil-pairs. BonTerra has selected Fugro's optional
Radiometrics application for an effective geological mapping solution as part of
this mineral exploration program. The Company plans on using this survey to
identify additional targets of interest on the property in its evaluation for
silver and base metal mineralization potential on the Property. 


Fugro Airborne Surveys is the global leader in providing airborne and ground
based geophysical surveys. Fugro collects, processes and interprets geophysical
data for clients in the mining, petroleum, engineering and environmental
sectors.
