Bonterra Resources Inc. (TSX-V:BTR) (US:BONXF) (FSE:9BR1) is pleased to announce that the ongoing resource development program at the Gladiator Gold Deposit has extended the North, Footwall and Main Zones by 200 m down plunge to the east. High-grade intersections identified in step-out drilling east of the known mineralization demonstrates the potential for further expansion of the Gladiator Deposit, which remains open in all directions.
Bonterra continues to advance the development of the Gladiator Gold Deposit through definition drilling across all mineralized horizons. Follow up on previous step-out drilling has led to significant results at multiple zones, including 26.7 g/t Au over 3.1 m at the North Zone and 15.8 g/t Au over 3.3 m at the Main Zone.
Dale Ginn, VP Exploration, stated, “Bonterra once again delivers strong results from its resource development program at the Gladiator Gold Deposit. To that effect, we currently have four drills at the deposit to continue with step-out and definition drilling. Recent drill results highlight both the predictability of the mineralized zones and the potential for further expansion of high grade ore shoots at depth. The current step-out drilling demonstrates the potential to expand the Gladiator Deposit, which remains open in all directions.”
