Vancouver, BC - April 28, 2011: BonTerra Resources Inc. (TSX.V: BTR; FSE: 9BR)
(the "Company", "BonTerra") is in receipt of gold assays for an additional four
drill holes on the Eastern Extension Gold Project ("the Property"). The Property
is located 170km northeast of Val d'Or, Quebec in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt.
The Company completed four (4) holes on the ice. These holes were drilled to
test a large Induced Polarity ("IP") anomaly. This anomaly appears to be a broad
gold bearing shear zone approximately 550 metres in length. Shear zones are
prime targets for gold concentration. Significant gold values are shown in table
1 below. The Company plans on continuing exploration drilling to make the gold
zones larger. The IP survey is one of the tools being used to plan future
drilling.
The Company is awaiting assays from three (3) additional holes drilled on land
in the eastern zone as well as one (1) deep hole under the main zone that is
nearing completion.
Since August 2010, the Company has drilled thirty (30) holes totaling
approximately 6,500 metres. Over the past eight months, BonTerra's drill program
has returned gold assays on 29 of 31 holes and developed a greater understanding
of the potential of the Property. BonTerra continues to hit gold on the property
throughout its ongoing drill program. After a week off during spring break up,
drill crews are once again on the Property. The project continues to grow in
size with continued drilling at this time.
Mitchell Adam, President, states, "BonTerra is close to outlining a strike
length of gold mineralization a half a kilometer in length. These ongoing drill
results coupled with our infrastructure, stockpiled fuel and our commitment to
expand the gold zones cements BonTerra as a significant player in the eastern
Abitibi region of Quebec."

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.
