Bonterra Resources Cuts 14 g/t over 6.6m in First Hole at Gladiator Project

Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / November 4, 2015: BonTerra Resources Inc. (TSX-V: BTR) (the "Company" or "Bonterra") is pleased to report that it has received assay results from the first hole of phase 1 drilling at the Company's Gladiator gold project located in the Abitbi Subprovince, north of Val d'Or, Quebec. The first hole encountered the main zone at 175 meters below surface, intersecting 14.0 g/t gold over 6.6 meters. This included a high-grade section of 104.5 g/t over 0.8 meters where numerous flecks of visible gold were observed. Drilling continues to extend the zone down plunge with further results expected in the coming weeks.

* Width is expressed as core width, true width has not yet been determined.

The zone is described by company geologists as a highly silicified and altered sheared mafic volcanic, locally exhibiting intrusions of syenite and quartz porphyry. Smoky quartz veining also occurs locally containing the bulk of the mineralization and free gold, as well as tourmaline and chlorite occupying fractures. The alteration zone is pervasive between 210 and 220 meters with the mineralized portion occupying 210.6 to 216.7 meters. Mineralization consists of minor (trace to 2%) pyrite, chalcopyrite and yellow sphalerite throughout but especially in and near the contacts with the quartz veining. Please see sections and pictures of the zone and intersection on the Company's website:

Phase 1 drilling is targeting plunge and strike extensions the Company's newly-discovered Gladiator Zone located on the Spartacus Trend within the West Arena Property. The Spartacus Trend has been identified by the Company's geologists as a northeast trending shear zone primarily within mafic volcanic units that host local intrusions of syenite and gabbro. Gold mineralization is predominantly contained within quartz-carbonate veining and associated alteration related to shearing, faults, folds and other typical structural controls. To date, the deposit has been drilled over a 500-meter strike length from surface and consists of a number of parallel, anastomosing and intersecting steeply dipping shear zones. Two additional parallel trends have been identified by geophysical signature and limited drilling, namely the Crixus to the north and the Gannicus to the south, each trend is separated by approximately 500 meters. The Coliseum Property is situated immediately to the west along strike from the Spartacus and Crixus trends. The Barry Deposit and open pit are located along strike immediately to the west of the Coliseum Property.

Bonterra President and CEO, Nav Dhaliwal, commented: "Our team is very pleased having achieved success on the first drill hole from our most recent drill program. This shows strength as we probe the system down plunge. The high-grade intersections are consistent with some of the most successful deposits in the region, a well-established gold district. We look forward to future assay results as we progress with our current exploration program and endeavour to unlock the potential value this asset offers our stakeholders and investors."
