Drill Results

Bonterra intersects 7.9 g/t Au over 12.1 metres at

Moroy

VAL D'OR, QC

Feb. 21, 2019

/CNW/ -

Bonterra Resources Inc. (TSX-V: BTR, OTCQX: BONXF, FSE: 9BR1)

("Bonterra" or the "

Company

") is pleased to announce drill results from the underground drill campaign at the Moroy

zone, including the following new high-grade results:

4.9 g/t Au over 14.3 metres in hole MY-18-089;

7.9 g/t Au over 12.1 metres in hole MY18-120;

15.5 g/t Au over 4.1 metres in hole MY-18-138.

Bonterra Intersects 7.9 g/t Au over 12.1 metres at Moroy (CNW Group/Bonterra Resources Inc.)

These new results both confirm the extent and continuity of the Moroy zone. The diamond drilling campaign also

succeeded in defining the Moroy zones M1 and M2. Highlighted drill intersections are provided in the table below.

The Moroy Deposit is a parallel system to the Bachelor Mine and shows similarities with Bachelor in terms of

geology, geometry, size and continuity. Located 1 km south, Moroy has been outlined over a strike length of 400

metres and a vertical extent of 600 metres. The mineralized zones consist of hematized brecciated stockwork

associated with pyrite. Bonterra will include these results in its upcoming mineral resources estimate and will focus

on expansion drilling in the Moroy zones, which remain open to the West and East, along the mineralization plunge.

Over 100,000 metres drilled in the Moroy deposit since its discovery in 2015.

Mineralized dimensions are now 400 metres along strike and 600 metres vertically.

Mine development into Moroy deposit, from level 11 of the Bachelor mine, allows for both bulk sampling and

underground definition drilling opportunities.
