BonTerra Clarifies Infill Sampling
02 Novembre 2011 - 7:11PM
Marketwired Canada
BonTerra Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:BTR) (FRANKFURT:9BR) (the "Company",
"BonTerra") released news earlier today regarding infill sampling on the Eastern
Extension property (the "Property"). Both previously disclosed assays as well as
newly received infill assays were used to calculate these amended drill
intercepts. Infill sampling was conducted on previously un-sampled core as
disclosed earlier today. The highest assays from the infill sampling program was
2.56 g/t gold over one metre in BA-10-08. One infill sample in BA-11-06 assayed
up to 2.42 g/t gold over one metre. As disclosed earlier today, gold is
primarily concentrated in previously sampled parts of the drill holes.

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.
Qualified Person
This technical content of this press release has been reviewed and accepted by
Thomas Clarke, Pr.Sci.Nat., a Director of BonTerra. 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).
