[{"type":"text","content":"Bonterra Intersects 7.35 Grams Per Tonne Au Over 8.35 Metres at BarryVal-d'Or, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - April 1, 2020) - Bonterra Resources Inc. (TSXV: BTR) (OTCQX: BONXF) (FSE: 9BR2) (the \"Company\" or \"Bonterra\") announces the results of assays from the winter drill program completed to date on its Barry project. Results include an intersection of 7.35 grams per tonne (\"g/t\") Au over an intersection length of 8.35 metres (\"m\"), including a higher-grade interval of 10.26 g/t Au over an intersection length of 4.75 m in hole MB-20-250.The 2020 winter drill program at Barry commenced on January 6 and was suspended on March 17 due to the Company's response to the Covid-19 virus situation. A total of 10,662 m of drilling was completed in 24 holes. Assay results for 14 of the holes have been completed in full, while assay results for 5 of the holes have been partially completed, and assays for an additional 5 holes are pending in full. The holes completed at Barry were planned to: 1) In-fill drill in selected parts of the deposit, 2) test the down dip limits of the current resource model, and 3) Explore to the immediate west of the deposit including ice-based drilling on Lac Limpide. A table of significant intersections received is attached below, in addition, the plan map attached indicates the location of these holes and projected intercepts.Five holes drilled were aimed at deposit in-fill with the objective of converting inferred resource to indicated resource. Assays have been received for 3 of the 5 holes. The assays received from the 3 holes are consistent with assays from adjacent holes and confirm the trends of the block model. The metres completed on in-fill drilling to date are approximately one third of the metres planned for in-fill drilling at Barry. A detailed assessment of the results will be completed as assays are received and the drill program resumes. Eight holes were drilled along the down dip limit of the resource model in selected positions where the current drilling was widely spaced. In general, the grade, thickness, and location of the intercepts are consistent with their occurrence on the margin of the Barry gold deposit. Hole MB-20-257, however, intersected a wide zone of mineralization 3.53 g/t Au over an intersection length of 15.10 m, including 5.48 g/t Au over an intersection length of 8.10 m. T...
