[{"type":"text","content":"Bonterra Intersects 10.97 g/t Au over 10.1 m, including 16.36 g/t Au over 4.7 m on its 100% owned Desmaraisville South ProjectVal-d'Or, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - December 4, 2023) - Bonterra Resources Inc. (TSXV: BTR) (OTCQX: BONXF) (FSE: 9BR2) (\"Bonterra\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the first drill results of its 15,000 meters (\"m\") drill program at its Desmaraisville South project. Three diamond drill rigs have been mobilized on the project and are currently drill-testing several new geological and geophysical targets along with historical near surface gold mineralization along the edges of the O'Brien Syenite Intrusion (\"O'Brien Intrusive\").Located within three kilometers (\"km\") of the Bachelor Mill Complex, three different areas were drill tested for their near surface gold potential. These areas are located North, East, and South of the O'Brien Intrusive (Figure 1).At the Southern Area (\"South Area\"), several new drill targets were generated from the reinterpretation of previously intersected gold bearing structures. This reinterpretation was done with the use of the Bonterra drill hole database and the historical 3D models of high-grade gold intercepts drilled previously. Bonterra has drilled to date a total of 17 diamond drill holes (4,332 m) at the South Area (Figure 2 and Table 1). Highlights include:10.97 g/t Au over 10.1 m, including 16.36 g/t Au over 4.7 m in hole BRDS-23-0184.79 g/t Au over 6.3 m, including 9.03 g/t Au over 1.5 m in hole BRDS-23-0162.65 g/t Au over 4.2 m in hole BRDS-23-016Marc-André Pelletier, President and CEO, commented: \"After entering into an earn-in and joint venture agreement with Osisko Mining Inc. in the Urban-Barry camp, our Company has redirected its exploration efforts to focus on our 100%-owned Desmaraisville projects, which is close to where the Bachelor Mill Complex is situated. The current 15,000 m drill program aims to explore new targets across our land package and validate our improved geological interpretation. The recent discovery of mineralized zones at Desmaraisville South supports our current understanding of the gold potential, indicating similarities to the Bachelor and Moroy deposits on the western side of the O'Brien Intrusive, located about 3 km from the Bachelor Mill. The ongoing drill program with three rigs, set to conclude this year, sh...
