BonTerra strikes gold ranging from near surface to 365 metres deep
Vancouver, BC - April 5, 2011: BonTerra Resources Inc. (TSX.V: BTR; FSE: 9BR)
(the "Company", "BonTerra") has received assays for the next 7 holes of the
2011 drill program on its 100% owned Eastern Extension Gold Project ("the
Property"). The Property is located 170km northeast of Val d'Or, Quebec in the
Abitibi Greenstone Belt.
* All of these holes intercepted mineralized, altered gold bearing veins.
* The first deep hole was completed on the property, BA-10-09. The depth of
the known gold mineralization was encountered as deep as 330 vertical metres
(365 metres down hole). Deep holes are very useful in creating tonnage for
future resource calculations.
* BonTerra has clearly defined a strike length of 315 metres. The Company's
aim is to increase the strike length to 650 metres before commencing infill
drilling.
* BA-11-07 assayed 7.20 metres of 5.92 g/t gold (0.17 Oz/t) including 1.50
metres of 21.70 g/t (0.63 Oz/t).
* BA-11-11 assayed 8.00 metres of 4.85 g/t gold (0.14 Oz/t) including 2.00
metres grading 10.96 g/t (0.32 Oz/t).
* There are an additional five (5) holes with assays pending at this time.
This includes two (2) ice holes.
* Significant gold intercepts are outlined in table 1 below.
Thomas Clarke, Director, states, "BonTerra is excited to encounter gold at
depths on the property. The company has recently completed several holes in the
east, an area with little previous work. These holes have all hit gold so far.
BonTerra is so confident in the property that we brought in 800 barrels of fuel
and additional core racks that can accommodate 10,000 metres of additional
drilling."

Qualified Person
This press release has been reviewed 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 zones of the drill hole. Depths and lengths are core lengths and not
true widths. 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 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.
