(TSX.V: BTR; FSE: 9BR) (the "Company", "BonTerra") is in receipt of gold assays for an additional four (4) drill holes on the Eastern Extension Gold Project ("the Property"). Hole BA-11-23 assayed 8.95 grams/tonne ("g/t") gold (0.26 Oz/ton) over 6.2 metres (20.46 Feet). Gold is concentrated in mineralized and altered quartz veins. Visible gold was observed in two samples in BA-11-23. The highest grade sample in this hole assayed 42.6 g/t and corresponded to a sample with fifteen (15) visible gold specks. Significant gold values are shown in table 1 below.

Mitchell Adam, President, states, "BonTerra is pleased to see the gold zones be proven larger with additional drilling. Intercepting veins bearing visible gold is rewarding and a result of the hard work by our geological team. BonTerra continues drilling with the intent of conducting the first ever NI 43-101 compliant resource calculation on the property."

The Company has drilled 32 holes on this property to date and is awaiting assays from three (3) additional holes drilled to expand the peninsula zone to the west.

The drill program and sampling is being supervised on behalf of the Company by Geologica Inc. of Val dOr, Quebec. These are sample results, taken from mineralized zones of the drill hole. Depths and lengths are core lengths and not true widths. Samples were submitted to ALS Chemex of Val dOr, 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 for future reference. The Company applies a full quality assurance and quality control (QAQC) system for every batch of samples submitted to the lab. The QAQC samples include a standard, duplicate and blank.
