BonTerra Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:BTR) (FRANKFURT:9BR) (the
"Company", "BonTerra") has received gold assays from the infill
sampling program on the Eastern Extension property (the
"Property"). The infill sampling program involved sampling selected
veins and segments of drill holes not yet sampled. This program has
led to discovering wider gold intercepts than originally disclosed
by BonTerra since November 9, 2010. The Company is now targeting
all veins due to gold being discovered in all vein types and not
only the smoked quartz veins, as originally thought. The Company
intends to continue to release additional results of the infill
sampling and recently completed drill holes as they become
available. A description of the most significant new thicker drill
intercepts are listed below and significant assays from the infill
sampling received to date are set out in table 1.
Description of Significant Drill Intercepts from the Infill
Sampling Program
BA-10-01
This drill hole was originally disclosed by BonTerra in a news
release dated November 9, 2010. The original drill intercept has
not changed, instead a second gold zone has been defined.
-- 22.05 metres assaying 0.98 grams/tonne ("g/t") gold
-- Including 0.71 metres grading 18.95 g/t gold
BA-10-02
This drill hole was originally disclosed by BonTerra in a news
release dated November 9, 2010. In this drill hole infill sampling
has widened the original drill intercept from 7.73 metres wide to a
zone twenty two (22) metres wide.
-- 22.00 metres assaying 7.54 g/t gold
-- Including 7.73 metres assaying 21.24 g/t gold (original intercept)
BA-10-03
This drill hole was originally disclosed by BonTerra in a news
release dated November 16, 2010. In this hole two high grade gold
zones were defined. The lower zone has since widened from six (6)
metres in width to twenty six (26) metres in width.
-- 26.00 metres assaying 3.72 g/t gold
-- Including 6.00 metres assaying 15.81 g/t (original intercept)
BA-10-08
This drill hole was originally disclosed by BonTerra in a news
release dated January 12, 2011. One of the gold zones has widened
significantly from seven (7) metres in length to seventeen and a
half (17.5) metres in length.
-- 17.50 metres grading 6.24 g/t gold
-- Including 7.00 metres grading 14.84 g/t gold (the original intercept)
BA-11-06
This drill hole was originally disclosed by BonTerra in a news
release dated February 17, 2011. This gold intercept has widened
significantly from approximately ten (10) metres to seventy five
and a half (75.5) metres.
-- 75.50 metres assaying 0.82 grams/tonne gold
-- Including 12.70 metres assaying 2.81 g/t gold.

Mitchell Adam, Director, states, "It is great to see the infill
sampling program pay off with expanded widths for some of our key
gold intercepts in the early days of the drill program."
Geological Characteristics of the Gold Bearing Veins on the
Eastern Extension
The target for all drilling on the Eastern Extension property is
smoky quartz veins mineralized with sulphides (pyrite, pyrrhotite
& chalcopyrite +/- sphalerite +/- visible gold). Sulphides
commonly compose 1-10% of the mineralized zones and can be as high
as 30% locally. Alteration is most commonly silica, carbonate,
chlorite, tourmaline and sericite. The combination of quartz veins,
tourmaline, alteration types and sulphides is ideal for gold
mineralization in the area. Sphalerite present in the quartz veins
appears to be associated with the highest grade gold zones on the
property to date.

Mr. Clarke is a Qualified Person under NI 43-101.
The sampling is being supervised on behalf of the Company by
Geologica Inc. of Val d'Or, Quebec. These are sample results, taken
from mineralized intervals of the drill holes. Depths and lengths
are core lengths and not true widths. Gold intercepts disclosed in
this news release are significant gold intercepts and not all the
samples submitted for fire assay. Samples were submitted to ALS
Chemex of Val d'Or, Quebec for crushing, pulverizing and fire-assay
for gold. Samples fire-assaying greater than 10 grams per tonne
gold are then fire-assayed with a gravimetric finish. Assay samples
are taken from drill core, sawed in half along the core axis. One
half is sent to ALS Chemex Laboratories and the other half retained
by the Company for future reference. The Company applies a full
quality assurance and quality control program (QAQC) system for
every batch of samples submitted to the lab (gold standard, sample
duplicate and blank).
