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 Project
Val-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").
魁北克瓦爾德奧--(Newsfile Corp.-2023 年 12 月 4 日)- Bonterra Resources Inc.(多倫多證券交易所股票代碼:BTR)(OTCQX:BONXF)(FSE:9BR2) (”Bonterra“或者”公司“) 很高興地宣佈其 15,000 米的首批鑽探結果 (”m“) 其德斯馬賴斯維爾南部項目的鑽探計劃。該項目已經動用了三臺金剛石鑽機,目前正在鑽探幾個新的地質和地球物理目標,以及O'Brien Syenite Incrussione邊緣的歷史近地表金礦化情況(”奧布萊恩侵入式“)。
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).
位於三公里以內(”公里“)在Bachelor Mill綜合體中,對三個不同的區域進行了近地表金礦潛力的鑽探測試。這些區域位於 O'Brien Intrusive 的北部、東部和南部(圖 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).
在南部地區 (”南部區域“),通過對先前交叉的含金結構的重新解釋,產生了幾個新的鑽探目標。這種重新解釋是使用 Bonterra 鑽孔數據庫和之前鑽探的高品位金截獲物的歷史三維模型完成的。迄今爲止,Bonterra在南部地區共鑽了17個金剛石鑽孔(4,332米)(圖2和表1)。

Marc-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, should provide valuable insights that will guide our future exploration strategy. It is to be noted that the nearby Bachelor Mine historically produced over 350,000 ounces of gold from two million tonnes at a grade of 5.0 g/t Au."
總裁兼首席執行官馬克-安德烈·佩萊捷評論說:“在與奧西斯科礦業公司在厄本-巴里營地簽訂盈利和合資協議後,我們公司已將其勘探工作重點放在我們100%持股的德斯馬拉斯維爾項目上,該項目靠近Bachelor Mill綜合大樓所在地。當前的15,000米鑽探計劃旨在探索我們的陸地一攬子計劃中的新目標,並驗證我們改進的地質解釋。最近在德斯馬賴斯維爾南部發現的礦化帶支持了我們目前對黃金潛力的理解,這表明與奧布萊恩侵入性河西側的巴切爾和莫羅伊礦牀有相似之處,距離巴切爾磨坊約3公里。正在進行的由三臺鑽機組成的鑽探計劃將於今年結束,這將提供寶貴的見解,指導我們未來的勘探戰略。值得注意的是,附近的巴切爾礦歷史上從200萬噸黃金中生產了超過35萬盎司的黃金,金品位爲5.0 g/t。”
The drilling encountered several sub-parallel hematite and silica rich altered zones with trace to 8% fine grained and disseminated pyrite which host the gold mineralization (Table 2 and Figure 2). From hole to hole, these mineralized zones show various orientations and suggest that the gold mineralization is related to a large complex with brittle zones of various orientations and plunges. Many assays are still pending from the 3,955 submitted samples.
鑽探中遇到了幾個亞平行的赤鐵礦和富含二氧化硅的變化區,其中微量爲 8% 的細顆粒和浸染黃鐵礦是金礦化的宿主(表 2 和圖 2)。從一個洞到另一個洞,這些礦化帶顯示出不同的方向,這表明金礦化與一個具有不同方向和墜落的脆性區域的大型複合體有關。從提交的3,955份樣本中,許多化驗仍在等待中。
Bonterra's review of the historical database demonstrated a lack of systematic sampling. Several gold mineralized intervals were not sampled above and below the mineralization. Bonterra will conduct a re-sampling program in early 2024. When all analytical data is received, Bonterra will update its 3D model including the geology, alteration, structures, and mineralization to better understand and evaluate the near surface gold potential of the South Area.
Bonterra對歷史數據庫的審查表明,缺乏系統的抽樣。未對礦化區上方和下方的幾個金礦化區間進行採樣。Bonterra將在2024年初進行重新抽樣計劃。收到所有分析數據後,Bonterra將更新其三維模型,包括地質學、蝕變、結構和礦化,以更好地了解和評估南區的近地表金礦潛力。

Quality Control and Reporting Protocols
質量控制和報告協議
The Desmaraisville project's drill core gold analyses are performed at Activation Laboratories (Actlabs) located in Ste-Germaine-Boulé and Val d'Or, Quebec and at the Agat Laboratory in Val d'Or. The external laboratory employs a rigorous QA-QC analysis program that meets industry standards. The analyses are carried out by fire assay (A.A.) with atomic absorption finish and with gravimetric finish for assay above 10 g/t Au at both Actlabs and Agat. Blanks, duplicates, and certified reference standards are inserted into the sample stream to monitor the Laboratory's performance. The Company's QA-QC program requires that at least 5 to 10% of the samples be analyzed by an independent laboratory. These verification samples are sent to ALS Minerals laboratory facility located in Val-d'Or, Quebec. The verifications show a high degree of correlation with the Laboratory's results. For the South Area, a total of 3,955 drill core samples and 702 QA-QC samples, have been sent to Activation Laboratories Ltd and Agat Laboratory.
Desmaraisville項目的鑽芯金分析在位於魁北克省聖日耳曼布爾和瓦爾德奧的活化實驗室(Actlabs)以及瓦爾德奧爾的阿加特實驗室進行。外部實驗室採用嚴格的質量控制分析程序,符合行業標準。分析採用火法試驗(A.A.)進行,表面採用原子吸收完成,在Actlabs和Agat進行金含量超過10 g/t的測定時採用重力法完成。樣本流中會插入空白、副本和經過認證的參考標準,以監測實驗室的表現。該公司的質量控制計劃要求至少5%至10%的樣本由獨立實驗室進行分析。這些驗證樣本被送往位於魁北克瓦爾德奧的ALS Minerals實驗室設施。驗證表明與實驗室的結果高度相關。對於南部地區,共有3,955份鑽芯樣本和702份質量控制樣本已送往活化實驗室有限公司和阿加特實驗室。

Caution regarding forward-looking statements
對前瞻性陳述的謹慎
This press release contains "forward-looking information" that is based on Bonterra's current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections. This forward-looking information includes, among other things, statements with respect to the earn-in and joint venture agreement with Osisko Mining announced on November 28, 2023. The words "will," "anticipated," "plans" or other similar words and phrases are intended to identify forward-looking information. This forward-looking information includes namely information with respect to the planned exploration programs and the potential growth in mineral resources. Exploration results that include drill results on wide spacings may not be indicative of the occurrence of a mineral deposit and such results do not provide assurance that further work will establish sufficient grade, continuity, metallurgical characteristics, and economic potential to be classed as a category of mineral resource. The potential quantities and grades of drilling targets are conceptual in nature and, there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the targets being delineated as mineral resources. Forward-looking information is subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause Bonterra's actual results, level of activity, performance, or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information. Such factors include but are not limited to: uncertainties related exploration and development; the ability to raise sufficient capital to fund exploration and development; changes in economic conditions or financial markets, environmental and other judicial, regulatory, political, and competitive developments; technological or operational difficulties or inability to obtain permits encountered in connection with exploration activities; and labour relations matters. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect our forward-looking information. These and other factors should be considered carefully, and readers should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking information.
