Bonterra Resources Announces $20 million Private Placement and Share Consolidation 

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION, DISTRIBUTION OR DISSEMINATION DIRECTLY, OR
---> INDIRECTLY, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, IN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES.

Vancouver, BC - October 15, 2018 - Bonterra Resources Inc. (TSX-V: BTR, US: BONXF, FSE: 9BR1) (the "Company" or "Bonte
--->rra") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Sprott Capital Partners to act as lead agent (
--->the "Lead Agent"), on its own behalf and, if applicable, on behalf of a syndicate of agents (collectively with the Lea
--->d Agent, the "Agents"), in connection with a marketed private placement to raise gross proceeds of up to $20,000,130 (
--->the "Offering").

Prior to closing of the Offering, the Company will consolidate its outstanding common shares on the basis of ten (10) 
--->existing common shares for one (1) new common share (the "Consolidation"). Upon completion of the Consolidation and pr
--->ior to closing of the Offering, the Company is expected to have 39,749,870 issued and outstanding common shares. No fr
--->actional shares will be issued. In addition, there will be no change in the Company's name or trading symbol. All secu
--->rities issued under the Offering will be, and all prices in this release are, on a post-Consolidation basis.

The Offering will consist of a combination of (a) up to 1,973,700 common shares of the Company issued on a flow-throug
--->h basis (the "FT Shares") at a price of $3.80 per FT Share, and (b) up to 3,787,900 common shares of the Company issue
--->d on a non-flow-through basis (the "NFT Shares") at a price of $3.30 per NFT Share.  Collectively the FT Shares and NF
--->T Shares are referred to as the "Offered Securities". 

In connection with the Offering, the Agents will be entitled to a cash fee in an amount equal to 6% of the gross proce
--->eds of the Offering. As additional consideration, the Company will grant to the Agents common share purchase warrants 
--->(the "Broker Warrants") entitling the Agents to subscribe for that number of common shares equal to 4.0% of the aggreg
--->ate number of Offered Securities placed in the Offering. Subject to regulatory approval, each Broker Warrant will be e
--->xercisable to acquire one common share at a price equal to $3.30 for a period of 24 months after the closing date.

The gross proceeds from the issuance of the FT Shares will be used for Canadian Exploration Expenses and will qualify 
--->as "flow-through mining expenditures" (the "Qualifying Expenditures"), as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Income T
--->ax Act (Canada), which will be renounced to the subscribers with an effective date no later than December 31, 2018 to 
--->the initial purchasers of the FT Shares in an aggregate amount not less than the gross proceeds raised from the issue 
--->of the FT Shares, as applicable, and, if the Qualifying Expenditures are reduced by the Canada Revenue Agency, the Cor
--->poration will indemnify each FT Share subscriber for any additional taxes payable by such subscriber as a result of th
--->e Corporation's failure to renounce the Qualifying Expenditures as agreed.  The net proceeds from the NFT Share Offeri
--->ng will be used for on-going exploration and development work on the Company properties and for general corporate purp
--->oses.  All Offered Securities will be subject to a four month hold period from the date of issue in accordance with ap
--->plicable securities laws. The Consolidation and the Offering are subject to approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
The Company will confirm the effective date of the Consolidation in a subsequent news release. The Offering is current
--->ly expected to close on November 8, 2018 or such other date or dates as the Company and the Lead Agent may agree.
