Bonterra Commences 2024 Drilling Campaign at its 100% Owned Desmaraisville South Project

Val-d’Or, QC – August 27, 2024 – Bonterra Resources Inc. (TSX-V: BTR, OTCQX: BONXF, FSE: 9BR2) (“Bonterra” or the “Company”) announces the start of a diamond drilling program at its 100% owned Desmaraisville South project. Several prospective geological, geophysical and drill targets have been identified throughout the year and have been prioritized following last summer’s field work carried out by Bonterra’s geology team (see Figure 1 for the location of the drill targets). A drill rig has been mobilized to site and the Company plans to drill from 4,000 to 6,000 meters (“m”) before the end of the year. Please refer to the press releases dated May 16, 2024, February 27, 2024, February 5, 2024, December 14, 2023, and December 4, 2023, for exploration updates on the Desmaraisville North and South projects and the surrounding area.

Marc-André Pelletier, President and CEO commented: “The commencement of exploration at our 100% owned Desmaraisville South project follows the diligent efforts of our geologists to design an optimal drilling program targeting several promising areas. Our primary goal for this campaign is to discover new mineralized lenses within 15 kilometers of the Bachelor Mill Complex. Concurrently, the Company is considering an update to the 2021 mineral resource estimate (the “2021 MRE”) for the Barry and Gladiator deposits (see press release dated June 23, 2021). Since the 2021 MRE, Bonterra has completed over 100,000 m of diamond drilling in and around the Barry and Gladiator deposits. This exploration comes amid a favorable increase in the price of gold, which was assumed at US$1,600 per ounce in the 2021 MRE.

At our Phoenix JV, the compilation work continues following the 60,000 m drill campaign that was completed in July. Drilling activities are expected to continue later this year with Gold Fields as the operator of the Phoenix JV.”

Deep Drilling at Phoenix JV Yields High-Grade Lynx-Type Mineralization at Moss Target, Highlighted by 38.3 g/t Au over 1.1 m and 7.37 g/t Au over 4.2

Val-d’Or, QC – August 6, 2024 – Bonterra Resources Inc. (TSX-V: BTR, OTCQX: BONXF, FSE: 9BR2) (“Bonterra” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce additional drill results on the Phoenix JV (formerly known as the Urban-Barry Property) (the “Project”). The Project is under a definitive earn-in and joint venture agreement (the “Agreement”) with Osisko Mining Inc. (“Osisko Mining”). Under the Agreement, Osisko Mining has the right to acquire up to a 70% interest in the Project by spending $30 million in work expenditures, with a minimum spending commitment of $10 million per year over a three-year period (see press release dated November 28, 2023, for more details).

To date, approximately 60,000 meters (“m”) have been drilled on the Project, including 37,000 m solely on the Moss Target where mineralization similar to the high-grade Lynx Zone has been confirmed at depth by Osisko Mining (see release dated April 15, 2024).

Diamond drilling activities are now completed and will resume later this year once all assays are received and the compilation and interpretation work are available. Importantly, total expenditures on the Project will exceed the minimum annual spending commitment of $10 million outlined in the Agreement.

Highlights at the Moss Target:

  • 38.33 g/t Au over 1.1 m, including 69.6 g/t Au over 0.6 m in hole OSK-PHX-24-078
  • 7.37 g/t Au over 4.2 m, including 28.6 g/t Au over 0.4 m in hole OSK-PHX-24-096
  • 14.35 g/t Au over 1.6 m, including 29.6 g/t Au over 0.7 m in hole OSK-PHX-24-082
  • 24.14 g/t Au over 1.4 m, including 48.1 g/t Au over 0.7 m in hole OSK-PHX-24-072
  • 42.1 g/t Au over 0.8 m in hole OSK-PHX-24-080
  • 75.8 g/t Au over 0.4 m in hole OSK-PHX-24-049

Marc-André Pelletier, President and CEO commented: “We are very pleased to report, in collaboration with our partner Osisko Mining, the discovery of high-grade Lynx-type mineralization at depth at the Moss target. Notably, the mineralization remains open and will be the subject of future work within the framework of our agreement. The presence of grey quartzpyrite veins with visible gold, combined with intense sericite-pyrite and silica altered rock, indicates wider mineralization, as observed in drill holes OSK-PHX-078 and OSK-PHX-096. We look forward to resuming exploration work on the Phoenix JV later this year.

At our Desmaraisville project, fieldwork is progressing well, and our geology team is working to generate prospective drill targets for exploration. A 6,000 m drill program is planned to start in September focusing on the most promising targets.”

Quality Control and Reporting Protocols (adopted by Osisko Mining)

NQ core assays were obtained by either 1-kilogram screen fire assay or standard 50-gram fireassaying-AA finish or gravimetric finish at ALS Laboratories in Val-d’Or, Québec, or Vancouver, British Colombia. The 1-kilogram screen assay method is selected by the geologist when samples contain coarse gold or present a higher percentage of pyrite than surrounding intervals. All samples are also analyzed for multi-elements, including silver, using Four Acid Digestion-ICP-MS method at ALS Laboratories. Drill program design, Quality Assurance/Quality Control (“QA/QC”) and interpretation of results is performed by qualified persons employing a QA/QC program consistent with NI 43-101 and industry best practices. Standards and blanks are included with every 20 samples for QA/QC purposes by Osisko Mining as well as the lab.

Please refer to the press releases dated December 4, 2023, December 14, 2023, February 5, 2024, and February 27, 2024, for exploration updates on the Desmaraisville North and South projects and the surrounding area.

The Company is pleased to announce that it has retained the services of Dr. Michel Jébrak for technical support on the upcoming drilling campaign. Dr. Jébrak is a well-known professional geologist with a deep understanding of the Desmaraisville camp geology, gained from prior work in the region. He is an emeritus professor at University of Quebec’s Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences. He is a former Vice-President for Research and Creation at UQAM and holder of the UQAT-UQAM Mining Entrepreneurship Chair.

Marc-André Pelletier, President and CEO commented: “We are excited to commence field work at our 100% owned Desmaraisville project under the guidance of Dr. Michel Jébrak. Over the next few weeks, our focus will be on investigating multiple high-grade gold values and new types of mineralization, all within four kilometers from the Bachelor Mill. Importantly, Dr. Jébrak`s expertise promises to offer insights into the exploration potential of the property.

At our Phoenix JV, operated by Osisko Mining Inc. (“Osisko Mining”), exploration efforts are progressing well, with approximately 35,000 m drilled to date. Currently, two drill rigs are focused on regional targets, while five are dedicated to the Moss target, bringing the total of operational rigs on the Phoenix JV to seven.”

Highlights of the Field Work

At the Desmaraisville South and North Properties, the field work is scheduled to commence late May 2024. The field programs will consist to: 1) evaluate several gold showings located within or at vicinity of the Opawica-Guercheville and the Wedding-Lamarck corridor of deformation where previous exploration works have returned very high-grade gold intersections in drilling and channel sample with values of 234.0 g/t over 0.4 m and 582.0 g/t Au over 0.53 m respectively, 2) map and sample outcropping areas with potential near surface gold bearing structures on both properties, 3) assess low-density circular features (Bouguer anomalies possibly corresponding to late felsic intrusions like the O’Brien Syenite Intrusion) interpreted from the high-resolution airborne gravity survey, 4) evaluate OreVision® 2D IP conductors and resistivity anomalies at the Desmaraisville South Property and 5) map and re-sample old gold bearing trenches to better assess their gold potential (Figure 1). Any positive results from these programs will help the Company to better focus and prioritize its diamond drill targets. The proposed 9,000 m drill program will commence later this year.

Brokered Private Placement Updates

Following the closing of the brokered private placement for proceeds of $8,541,250 (see press release of May 3, 2024), the Company paid a syndicate of agents led by Eight Capital, who acted as lead agent and sole bookrunner and that included Cormark Securities Inc.

Under the Offering, the Company sold (i) 5,250,000 flow-through units of the Company to purchasers (each, a “FT Unit”) at a price of $0.445 per FT Unit for gross proceeds of $2,336,250 from the sale of FT Units; and (ii) 24,820,000 units of the Company (each, a “Unit”, and together with the FT Units, the “Offered Units”) at a price of $0.25 per Unit for gross proceeds of $6,205,000 from the sale of Units.

Under the Offering, Eight Capital acted as lead agent and sole bookrunner on behalf of a syndicate of agents that included Cormark Securities Inc. (collectively, the “Agents”).

Each FT Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each, a “FT Share”) and one common share purchase warrant (each, a “Warrant”). The FT Shares and Warrants comprising the FT Units will qualify as “flow-through shares” within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and the Taxation Act (Quebec). Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (each, a “Unit Share”) and one Warrant. Each Warrant (including a Warrant comprising the FT Units) entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company (each, a “Warrant Share”) at a price of C$0.31 at any time on or before May 3, 2028.

20,000,000 Units (the “LIFE Units”) were sold pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions (“NI 45-106”). The LIFE Units are immediately freely tradeable under applicable Canadian securities legislation for Canadian purchasers. The remaining 4,820,000 Units, as well as the 5,250,000 FT Units, were distributed by way of the “accredited investor”, “minimum amount investment” and other exemptions under NI 45-106 in certain provinces of Canada, and are subject to a four-month restricted period in Canada ending on September 3, 2024. The Offering is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all required regulatory approvals including final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The gross proceeds from the sale of FT Units will be used by the Company to incur expenses described in paragraph (f) of the definition of “Canadian exploration expense” (“CEE”) in subsection 66.1(6) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”) and paragraph (c) of the definition of CEE in section 395 of the Taxation Act (Québec) (the “QTA”), and will be renounced in favour of the relevant purchaser for both federal and Québec tax purposes no later than December 31, 2024, pursuant to the terms of the subscription agreement to be entered into between the Company and such purchaser of FT Units.

The issuance of Units to insiders is considered a “related party transaction” within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to section 5.5(a) and the minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 pursuant to section 5.7(1)(a) in respect of such insider participation as the fair market value of the transaction, insofar as it involves interested parties, does not exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.
