Val-d’Or, QC – June 8, 2021 – Bonterra Resources Inc. (TSX-V: BTR, OTCQX: BONXF, FSE: 9BR2) (“Bonterra” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce results from the ongoing drilling campaign at the Barry project. Recent drilling continues to expand the Barry “H-Series” gold mineralized zones at depth. Specifically, the Barry H15 Zone gold mineralized outline has quadrupled in size since the last National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) report was filed in 2019 and remains open along strike and at depth (see Figure 4). The latest drilling results encompass 25 expansion diamond drill holes [12,989 metres (“m”)], including seven drill holes that were deepened to test for potential extensions of “H-Series” subparallel zones. Drilling highlights include a wide zone of mineralization in drill hole MB-21-346 that intercepted 4.4 grams-per-tonne gold (“g/t Au”) over 8.0 m (see Figures 1 to 4).

The Company is currently drilling at a rate of approximately 10,000 m per month and plans to announce a mineral resource estimate update on its three main deposits, Gladiator, Barry, and Moroy in the coming weeks (the “2021 Resource Update”), which is expected to incorporate approximately 130,000 m of new drilling information, including the results presented today. In addition, work on the the Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) is ongoing and is expected to be completed in Q4 2021 (see press release dated March 1, 2021).

Drilling Highlights*:

• 4.4 g/t Au over 8.0 m in hole MB-21-346
• 9.0 g/t Au over 3.6 m and 5.5 g/t Au over 2.1 m in hole MB-21-345
• 11.4 g/t Au over 1.8 m in hole MB-21-343
• 5.4 g/t Au over 5.0 m in hole MB-21-341
• 5.6 g/t Au over 4.0 m in hole MB-21-349

* True widths are estimated to be greater than 65% of the drill intersection length.

Pascal Hamelin, CEO commented: “It is very encouraging to continue seeing drill results that demonstrate good continuity across thick widths in these “H-Series” gold mineralized zones. I really look forward to seeing how these results are incorporated into the upcoming mineral resource estimate update. Importantly, companywide engineering and permitting continues to progress which should allow for a smooth and rapid transition for Bonterra from exploration to development over the next 18-24 months.”

The Company has drilled 86 holes and deepened eight existing holes representing a total of 38,958 m at Barry since July 23, 2020. Complete and partial results from 21 drill holes have been received including seven of the eight deepened holes since the press release dated March 31, 2021. Some results from the remaining holes are still pending (See Table 1 and Figure 1).

The Barry drilling program targeted the expansion and continuity of the gold mineralized zones in key areas around the NI 43-101 Barry mineral resource estimate in 2019. Drilling results continue to confirm the expansion of multiple “H-Series” subparallel zones which remain open at depth across the Barry deposit, in addition to outlining further potential to the east of the deposit (See Table 1 and Figures 1 to 4).

The Barry gold deposit is characterized as multiple sub-parallel, sub-vertical, shear zones and a second set of subparallel “H-Series” veins dipping 30 to 60 degrees to the south hosted within intermediate to mafic volcanics and tuffs with local felsic intrusions. Gold mineralization consists of disseminated sulfides within the shear zones and the veins with local visible gold. The Barry deposit has been delineated over 1.4 kilometres along strike and 600 m vertical and remains open for expansion.

Quality control and reporting protocols

The Barry project’s drill core gold analyses are performed at the Company’s Bachelor Mine analytical laboratory (the “Laboratory”). The Company employs a rigorous QA-QC analysis program that meets industry standards. The analyses are carried out by fire assay (A.A.) with atomic absorption finish. Blanks, duplicates, and certified reference standards are inserted into the sample stream to monitor the Laboratory’s performance. The Company’s QA-QC program requires that at least 10% of samples be analyzed by an independent laboratory. These verification samples are sent to ALS Minerals laboratory facility located in Val-d’Or, Quebec. The verifications show a high degree of correlation with the Laboratory’s results.

Val-d’Or, QC – March 31, 2021 – Bonterra Resources Inc. (TSX-V: BTR, OTCQX: BONXF, FSE: 9BR2) (“Bonterra” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce an update on results from the ongoing drilling campaign at the Barry project. Recent drilling was designed to expand the Barry “H-Series” gold mineralized zones at depth (See Figures 1 and 2). The latest drilling results encompass 11 expansion diamond drill holes (4,794 metres (“m”)), including six drill holes that were deepened to test for potential extensions of “H-Series” subparallel zones. Drilling was highlighted by a wide zone of mineralization in drill hole MB-21-340 that intercepted 7.4 grams-per-tonne gold (“g/t Au”) over 14.7 m. The Company is currently drilling at a rate of approximately 10,000 m per month and plans a mineral resource estimate update for Q2/21 (the “2021 Resource Update”), which is expected to incorporate approximately 130,000 m of new drilling information, including results presented today. In addition, work on the the Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) is ongoing and is expected to be completed in the fall of 2021 (See press release dated March 1, 2021).

Highlights:

• 7.4 g/t Au over 14.7 m and 1.4 g/t Au over 6.8 m in hole MB-21-340
• 3.8 g/t Au over 6.8 m and 2.1 g/t Au over 6.6 m in hole MB-21-339
• 3.5 g/t Au over 6.3 m in hole MB-20-255
• 3.9 g/t Au over 2.7 m in hole MB-20-278

Pascal Hamelin, CEO commented: “The ongoing drilling results at Barry are very encouraging and support our view that tremendous exploration potential remains within the camp near existing infrastructure. Several historical intercepts suggest the potential for higher-grade material to the west and drill hole MB-21-340 is no exception. There are currently two diamond drill rigs operating at Barry. Importantly, having several parallel gold-bearing structures allows for drilling to pierce several zones with each hole. The Company continues to test extensions of the deposits at all three of the Company’s flagship assets in preparation of the upcoming resource update expected in Q2/21.”

Figure 1 – Barry Project – Drill Hole Location Map

Figure 2 – Barry Deposit Longitudinal Section

The Company has drilled 70 holes and deepened six existing holes representing a total of 28,658 m at Barry since July 23, 2020. Results from eight drill holes have been received since the press release dated March 1, 2021. Results from the remaining three holes are still pending (See Table 1 and Figures 1 and 2).

The Barry gold deposit is characterized as multiple sub-parallel, sub-vertical, shear zones and a second set of subparallel “H-Series” veins dipping 50 to 60 degrees to the south hosted within intermediate to mafic volcanics and tuffs with local felsic intrusions. Gold mineralization consists of disseminated sulfides within the shear zones and the veins with local visible gold. The Barry deposit has been delineated over 1.4 kilometres along strike and 600 m vertical and remains open for expansion.

Due to an accumulated backlog at the Company’s laboratory, assaying priority has been assigned to drill hole samples directly affected within the 2021 Resource Update. Pending assays of samples awaiting analysis from drilling beyond the project models not included in the 2021 Resource Update are to be processed by Activation Laboratories Ltd. (“Actlabs”), based in northwestern Quebec.

Table 1: Significant mineralized intersections of recent drilling on the Barry deposit

Six existing drill holes (MB-18-189, MB-18-191, MB-18-198, MB-20-246, MB-20-255 and MB-20-278) were deepened and five new holes (MB-21-336 to 340) targeted the expansion of key areas confirming mineral continuity within the inferred resource from the 2019 Barry mineral resource estimate. Drilling results confirm the expansion of multiple “H-Series” subparallel zones open at depth in the central and west areas of the Barry deposit.

The following holes have returned significant grades in this sector; MB-20-255: 3.5 g/t Au over 6.3 m in the H15 Zone; MB-20-278: 3.9 g/t Au over 2.7 m in the H15 Zone; MB-21-339: 3.8 g/t Au over 6.8 m in the H12 zone and 2.1 g/t Au over 6.6 m in the H15 zone; MB-21-340: 7.4 g/t Au over 14.7 m in the H8 Zone and 1.4 g/t Au over 6.8 m in the H15 Zone. Hole MB-21-336 intersected the 1000 zone returning 2.0 g/t Au over 2.0 m confirming that mineralization along this Barry zone remains open towards the east and at depth (See Table 1 and Figures 1 and 2).

Quality control and reporting protocols

The Barry project’s drill core gold analyses are performed at the Company’s Bachelor Mine analytical laboratory (the “Laboratory”). The Company employs a rigorous QA-QC analysis program that meets industry standards. The analyses are carried out by fire assay (A.A.) with atomic absorption finish.

Val-d’Or, QC – March 22, 2021 – Bonterra Resources Inc. (TSX-V: BTR, OTCQX: BONXF, FSE: 9BR2) (“Bonterra” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the discovery of a new near surface zone of gold mineralization found within the Company’s Bachelor-Desmaraisville land package. Drilling encountered a broad zone of mineralization that is located close to surface and within two kilometres of the Company’s 100% owned Bachelor Mill. The newly discovered zone of mineralization is proximal to the syenite intrusion shown in Figure 2. Results to date indicate that the mineralized zone is open in all directions. The Company plans to mobilize a drill crew as soon as possible to begin follow-up work.

Highlights:

• 24.85 metres (“m”) of 1.4 grams-per-tonne gold (“g/t Au”); including 4.25 m of 3.6 g/t Au (EB20-008);
• 18.3 m of 0.9 g/t Au; including 10.5 m of 1.3 g/t Au (EB21-021); and
• Both results occur within 50 m of surface and the mineralization is open in all directions.

Pascal Hamelin, CEO commented: “This newly discovered near-surface mineralized target is extremely exciting for Bonterra. The new gold target has the potential to rapidly grow due to the widths and ease in which short holes from surface can be used to define the target boundaries. To find something this close to the Bachelor mill demonstrates the untapped potential of this mining camp. We continue to believe this camp is largely underexplored and that there will be several new discoveries in the region in the near future. In addition, the discovery’s proximity to our existing mill infrastructure is also important as it lowers the hurdle to becoming a potential source of mill feed. As a result of this success, we plan on mobilizing a drill crew as soon as possible to do immediate follow-up work on near-surface targets.”

Exploration drilling results are confirming the existence of gold mineralization within sheared meta-volcanoclastic and meta-sedimentary rocks hosting quartz (+/- carbonate-ankerite-pyrite) veining and related vein stockworks. Results from the recent drilling fence across the east flank of the O’Brien intrusive stock of syenitic composition is supporting the existence of a broad gold mineralized vein system at shallow depths proximal to the mine area.

Drilling of the other regional exploration targets: Clone, Sigmoid and Deer have so far, returned anomalous gold values. These early, first pass drilling results are key for exploring the potential for gold mineralization of the relatively untested targets within the mining camp (See Figure 1).

Exploration results that include drill results on wide spacings may not be indicative of the occurrence of a mineral deposit and such results do not provide assurance that further work will establish sufficient grade, continuity, metallurgical characteristics and economic potential to be classed as a category of mineral resource. The potential quantities and grades of drilling targets are conceptual in nature and, there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the targets being delineated as mineral resources. Forward-looking information is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause Bonterra’s actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information. Such factors include but are not limited to: uncertainties related exploration and development; the ability to raise sufficient capital to fund exploration and development; changes in economic conditions or financial markets, environmental and other judicial, regulatory, political and competitive developments; technological or operational difficulties or inability to obtain permits encountered in connection with exploration activities; and labour relations matters. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect our forward-looking information. These and other factors should be considered carefully and readers should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking information.

Val-d’Or, QC – March 8, 2021 – Bonterra Resources Inc. (TSX-V: BTR, OTCQX: BONXF, FSE: 9BR2) (“Bonterra” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce an update regarding the ongoing permitting process to expand the 100% owned Bachelor Mill from 800 to 2,400 tonnesper-day (“tpd”). As a result of the Company’s exploration success, Bonterra’s management began the process of seeking permits to expand the Bachelor Mill in 2018. Consequently, the Company estimates that the permitting process for the Bachelor Mill expansion is two-thirds complete.

Highlights:
– The Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (“MENR”) has approved the tailings storage facility (“TSF”) expansion location, which brings Bonterra one step closer to its goal of expanding the Bachelor Mill.
– Bonterra submitted an Environmental Impact Study in 2019 and entered the question & answer period (“Q&A”) in the spring of 2020. The Company is currently in the process of providing the Environmental and Social Impact Review Committee with additional information.
– Once the Q&A is completed, the Company will seek a Certificate of Authorization allowing both the TSF expansion and the mill to be operated at 2,400 tpd.
– In addition, the MENR has approved the Gladiator closure plan. The Barry and Bachelor closure plans are currently being reviewed by the MERN. Approval of closure plans is a key step in the permitting process to begin mining at each project.

Pascal Hamelin, CEO commented: “The permitting process to expand the Bachelor Mill is progressing well. Based on feedback received thus far, we believe that the mill should be permitted for expansion concurrent with the development of Moroy, Bachelor and Barry for a potential huband-spoke restart. To that end, the Environmental and Social Impact Evaluating Committee is currently reviewing the Certificate of Exemption application for an underground ramp at Gladiator. It is important to remind investors that the 100% owned Bachelor Mill is currently operational at a rate of 800 tpd and it is connected to the Quebec hydroelectric power grid.”
