BONTERRA INTERCEPTS A ZONE 169.70 METRES GRADING 0.73 GRAMS/TONNE GOLD , 
INCLUDING VARIOUS HIGH GRADE ZONES ASSAYING UP TO 54 G/T GOLD ON THE 
EASTERN EXTENSION PROPERTY 

BonTerra Resources Inc. (TSX Venture Exchange: BTR 

http://www.stockwatch.com/Quote/Detail.aspx?action=go&symbol=BTR®ion=C&lookup=symbol&snapshot=default 

, FSE: 9BR) has received complete gold assays for drill hole BA-11-10. 
This hole has the widest gold intercept BonTerra has discovered to date 
and to the knowledge of the Company the widest ever gold intercept for 
the Urban-Barry belt. This zone is 169.70 metres in width assaying 0.73 
grams/tonne ("g/t") gold. This expansive gold intercept is roughly 
twelve and a half times wider than the original gold zone discovered in 
BA-10-01 as disclosed in a news release dated November 9, 2010. 

As is typically seen on the property, there are bands of high grade gold 
situated within the large gold zones. In this drill hole, high grade 
stretches assayed as high as 54 g/t gold. Gold grades are outlined below 
and in table 1. 

89.70 metres assaying 1.33 g/t gold 

78.70 metres assaying 1.47 g/t gold 

57.20 metres assaying 1.97 g/t gold 

31.00 metres assaying 2.84 g/t gold 

4.50 metres assaying 18.16 g/t gold 

2.30 metres assaying 31.63 g/t gold 

0.70 metres assaying 54.00 g/t gold 

BonTerra also assayed several samples over 1 g/t between 440 and 508 
metres down hole. This equates to discovering gold at greater depths 
than previously known. BonTerra has now traced gold mineralization to 
480 metres in vertical depth. This deepening of the mineralized zone by 
115 metres creates additional tonnage for the anticipated resource 
calculation. 

BonTerra continues to grow this mineralized zone which is open to the 
east, west, south and down dip. Recently, BonTerra assayed a sample of 
114 g/t at depth in the south, another area previously unknown to host 
gold. BonTerra awaits assays for an additional seven drill holes at this 
time. 

Mitchell Adam, President, states, "BonTerra is pleased to intercept a 
gold bearing zone nearly 170 metres wide, by far the longest gold 
intercept discovered to date. Deepening the gold zones is also of great 
importance to us, it shows the blue sky potential of the property. The 
more data we put into our 3D model, the better our geological team 
understands the property. This advanced knowledge has been paying 
dividends lately, first with our highest assay value, now with the 
thickest gold intercept."

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 drill program and 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).
