FIRST 2 HOLES OF PHASE 2 COMPLETE, EASTERN EXTENSION PROPERTY



FIRST 2 HOLES OF PHASE 2 COMPLETE, EASTERN EXTENSION PROPERTY Vancouver, BC – January 6, 2011: BonTerra Resources Inc.

(TSXV: BTR; FSE: 9BR) (the “Company”, “BonTerra”) announces the continued progression of its second phase of drilling on the Eastern Extension property.

Two drill holes were completed before Christmas.

The core has been logged and is being split and sent for assay.

These two recently completed holes were drilled to the west of the first three holes which returned gold assay values up to 77.8 grams to tonne in November.

It is the goal of the Company to focus phase two of drilling on extending the strike length of the known high grade gold zone.

These two recently completed holes appear to share similar geological characteristics of the first holes hosting high grade gold mineralization as disclosed in a news release dated November 9, 2010.

The Company also reports the completion of expanding its camp on the Eastern Extension property in preparation for significant winter drilling. Mitchell Adam, President, states, “We are enthusiastic about continuing to extend the high grade gold zone on the Eastern Extension property.

This is the primary focus of BonTerra Resources.” The Company also expects to be in receipt of a NI 43-101 Technical report for the Eastern Extension property once assays for the two recently completed holes are received in January.

At this time the Company is defining its strategy for drilling the property in 2011 including the possibility of utilizing two rigs. BonTerra has chosen to employ a full quality assurance and quality control (QAQC) system for every batch of samples submitted to the lab.

The QAQC samples include a standard, duplicate and blank.
