Balmoral Resources Ltd.: Intersects 38.19 Metres Grading 4.16 g/t Gold, Bug Lake Gold Trend, Martiniere Property

Vancouver, Canada (ABN Newswire) - Balmoral Resources Ltd. ("Balmoral" or the "Company") (TSE:BAR) (OTCMKTS:BALMF) today reported the final results from the winter 2015 Bug Lake Gold Trend drill program on the Company's wholly owned Martiniere Property in Quebec. Results were highlighted by intercepts of 4.16 g/t gold over 38.19 metres, including a high-grade core of 25.05 g/t gold over 5.10 metres from the Lower Bug Lake Zone, and 17.71 g/t gold over 9.00 metres, including a high-grade core of 31.54 g/t gold over 4.99 metres from the Footwall B Zone (see Table and Figure 1 in link below). The summer 2015 Martiniere drill program is anticipated to commence in July.

The Bug Lake Gold Trend hosts four, sub-parallel gold zones - Hanging Wall, Upper Bug Lake, Lower Bug Lake and Footwall Zones. The four zones, and several sub-zones, are located within a 100 to 175 metre wide structural corridor centered on the Bug Lake Fault and porphyry. All four zones exhibit steep dips and moderate plunges to the south.

"The winter drill program has allowed us to more confidently delineate a number of high-grade zones and sub-zones along the Bug Lake Trend, locally added to the previously defined gold system and will aid considerably in targeting extensions to the zones and overall gold system on the Martiniere Property" said Darin Wagner, President and CEO of Balmoral. "Exploration activities have resumed and we look forward to more strong results as we continue to delineate the opportunities at Martiniere and Grasset, and continue our evaluation of our extensive holdings in the area."

The winter drill program was designed to achieve 25 metre pierce point spacing across the four principal gold mineralized zones located along the Bug Lake Gold Trend. In the process, it has helped to define and delineate several secondary high-grade structures in the hanging wall and footwall to the Bug Lake fault. The winter drill program targeted a 300 metre long by 150 to 200 metre deep panel through the central portion to the Bug Lake Gold Trend. The Trend extends for a minimum strike length of 1,200 metres and has been intersected to a vertical depth of 400 metres. The Trend and individual zones remain open along strike to the south-southeast and to depth. Individual holes may have been targeted at one or more of the zones of interest and frequently intersected multiple gold mineralized zones in traversing the Bug Lake Trend.

The wholly owned Martiniere Property forms part of the Company's 700+ square kilometre Detour Trend Project and is located approximately 40 km west of the Company's Grasset Ni-Cu-PGE discovery. The Detour Trend Project extends for over 100 kilometres along the Sunday Lake Deformation Zone. The Project covers the northern most frontier of the prolific Abitibi Greenstone Belt which has a 100+ plus year history of high-grade gold and base metal production making it a destination of choice for the global mining industry.


Quality Control

Mr. Darin Wagner (P.Geo.), President and CEO of the Company, is the non-independent qualified person for the technical disclosure contained in this news release. Mr. Wagner has supervised the work programs on the Martiniere Property, visited the property on multiple occasions, examined the drill core and/or photographs from the holes summarized in this release, discussed, reviewed the results with senior on-site geological staff and reviewed the available analytical and quality control results.

Balmoral has implemented a quality control program for all of its drill programs, to ensure best practice in the sampling and analysis of the drill core, which includes the insertion of blind blanks, duplicates and certified standards into sample stream. NQ sized drill core is saw cut with half of the drill core sampled at intervals based on geological criteria including lithology, visual mineralization and alteration. The remaining half of the core is stored on-site at the Company's Martiniere field camp in Central Quebec. Drill core samples are transported in sealed bags to ALS Minerals' Val d'Or, Quebec analytical facilities. Gold analyses are obtained via industry standard fire assay with atomic absorption finish using 30 g aliquots. For samples returning greater than 5.00 g/t gold follow-up fire assay analysis with a gravimetric finish is completed. The Company has also requested that any samples returning greater than 10.00 g/t gold undergo screen metallic fire assay. Following receipt of assays, visual analysis of mineralized intercepts is conducted and additional analysis may be requested. ALS Minerals is ISO 9001:2008 certified and the Val d'Or facilities are ISO 17025 certified for gold analysis.
