BonTerra Resources Inc. reported that it has received final assay results from hole BA-15-03 and BA-15-04 of its 2015 Phase 1 Four Hole Exploration Program on its 100% owned West Arena Gold Property, within the Gladiator Gold Project located north of Val d'Or, Québec. Hole BA-15-03, located approximately 75 meters to the west of drill hole BA-15-02, encountered a number and range of gold intersections. High grade was discovered in the FW Zone, and broad lower gold grades were intersected within a mineralized felsic porphyritic intrusive in the lower half of the hole.

Hole BA-15-04, which intersected 1.3 m of 8.0 g/t Au, was located approximately 50 meters to the east of drill hole BA-15-01, and even though the hole was placed much higher in the system and above plunge, it hit the Main Zone with similar higher-grade mineralization as seen in BA-15-01 and BA-15-02. Project Overview and Phase 1 Summary: The 2015 Phase 1 drill program targeted the plunge and strike extensions the Company's newly discovered Gladiator Zone located on the Spartacus Trend within the West Arena Property. 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.

The Phase 1 drill program, essentially a reconnaissance effort using drills, met and exceeded expectations by localizing impressive gold bearing veins and also confirming the presence of a massive intrusive body, possibly porphyritic, defined by intercepts of up to 155 m with gold values between approximately 0.4 g/t and 0.9 g/t. 2016 Exploration Program: Based on results from the 2015 Phase 1 Drill Program and the recent successful financing in late 2015, the 2016 Exploration and Drill Program has been expanded to consist of up to 25,000 meters with a minimum of two drill rigs to extend and expand the known Gladiator zones. The Company will also explore the known and newly-discovered mineralized trends along strike, which have been further defined and extended by a recently completed ground geophysical program. The Program will focus on expanding the Main Zone and expand mineralization into the new strike extensions recently generated by ground geophysics.

The geophysical strike extensions have shown new identical signatures as the Main Zone's approximately 5km along strike to the west into the Coliseum Property.
