BONTERRA RETAINS AGAT LABS FOR VALIDATION SAMPLING ON 15,000 METRE
DRILL
PROGRAM IN QUEBEC

BonTerra Resources Inc. (TSX.V: BTR; FSE:
9BR) (the 'Company', 'BonTerra') has retained a second laboratory,
AGAT
Laboratories of Mississauga, Ontario ('AGAT') to assay drill core samples
along
with ALS Chemex ('ALS'). AGAT is a fully accredited laboratory and conforms
with
the requirements of CAN-P-4E (ISO/IEC 17025:2005) and CAN-P-1579 by
the
Standards Council of Canada. AGAT is a specialized Canadian based lab
with
thirty (30) years of experience in providing comprehensive analytical
services
to the mining industry.

AGAT is being used to both assay new drill core samples from the final
drill
holes as well as to validate assay results received to date from ALS
Chemex.
Validation is the process whereby samples that assayed over 1 g/t gold are
sent
in for re-assay to verify the values received to date. This is in
addition to
the Company employing a full quality assurance and quality control
('QAQC')
program. Sample validation is necessary for the completion of the NI
43-101
compliant inferred resource calculation for the Eastern Extension property
(the
'Property').

BonTerra should be finished drilling its 15,000 metre drill program by
the end
of November. Once the Company receives the final assay results from drill
core
including validation samples all efforts will focus on finalizing
the
compilation of database for all work completed to date. After this is
completed,
Geologica of Val d'Or, Quebec will complete the NI 43-101 compliant
inferred
gold resource calculation for the Property. Final holes are being
completed and
assays will be released when they become available.

Mitchell Adam, President states, 'The Company is looking forward to
completing
the 2011 drill program and compiling all the assay data from the 15,000
metres
of drilling completed over the past 12 months. Once we have
completed our
43-101 inferred calculation, we will begin to budget and plan for a 2012
drill
program with the focus of increasing the size and scope of the Eastern
Extension
project and prepare for winter drilling on the ice targets.'
