BISON GOLD RESOURCES INC. CENTRAL MANITOBA PROPERTY UPDATE: HIGH GRADE GOLD INTERSECTIONS FROM DIAMOND DRILLING ON OGAMA-ROCKLAND TREND CONFIRM DEPTH AND STRIKE EXTENSION OF THE OGAMA ZONE

Bison Gold Resources Inc. has released initial results from drilling on the Ogama-Rockland trend from the company's Central Manitoba property.

Diamond drill hole OG-10-04 intersected 2.46 metres of 37.1 grams per tonne gold in a zone of intense alteration, shearing and quartz veining containing visible gold within a granodiorite. This drill hole intersected the Ogama zone approximately 50 metres west of drill hole OG-09-07, which intersected 35.0 g/t Au over 4.73 metres. Additionally, drill hole OG-10-04 intersected a new gold-bearing structure in the hangingwall to the Ogama zone; 0.87 metre of 27.3 g/t Au. Significant initial results are in the associated table. The widths reported are drill-intercepted core widths and not true widths.

            CENTRAL MANITOBA DRILL RESULTS

Drill hole     Core interval (m)   Width (m)   Au (g/t)

OG-10-04       402.77 to 405.23        2.46       37.1
including      402.77 to 403.53        0.76      117.9
OG-10-04       199.48 to 200.35        0.87       27.3

"The evolving picture at Ogama is that the gold-bearing structures of the Ogama mine, which were initially thought to have closed, actually open and persist at depth and along strike away from the mine," stated David Benson, PGeo, vice-president of exploration for Bison Gold. "We are very encouraged and pleased with the results so far." Bison's current drilling program has evolved with the OG-10-04 intersection and will step-out and continue to test at depth and along strike from the historical mine workings.

Bison is currently drilling the fifth hole of the drilling program that is targeted to test the depth extension of the OG-09-07 intersection.

Quality assurance and quality control

Drill core was sawed, with half sent to TSL Labs in Saskatoon, Sask., and the other half retained for reference. Most gold analyses were done using 50-gram fire assay with AA finish. A gravimetric finish is employed where samples return gold values in excess of 3,000 parts per billion. Screen metallics techniques were used on samples with visible gold. TSL maintains a strict quality control program with standards, blanks and duplicates included with every sample series. Standards and blanks are inserted regularly by Bison Gold personnel in to the sample series at its core-processing facility.

All exploration activities for Bison Gold are under the supervision and guidance of Mr. Benson, PGeo, and a qualified person under NI 43-101. Mr. Benson has reviewed the technical portions of this news release
