GTA Resources and Mining (GTA-V) and Balmoral Resources (BAR-T) June 21, '16 that drilling has commenced on the Northshore Gold Property near Schreiber, Ontario. The Northshore Property is being advanced in a joint venture between GTA and Balmoral. GTA, the current operator of the joint venture, plans to complete between 20 and 30 diamond drill holes over the next several weeks targeting the Afric Gold Zone on the Property, as well as the high-grade Gino and Audney vein systems.

The principal focus of this drill campaign will be the further delineation of near surface gold mineralization contained within the core of the Afric Zone. Previous drilling by GTA has returned broad intervals of gold mineralization, ranging from 30 to over 240 metres, from the Afric Zone, often containing numerous high-grade vein intercepts. All mineralized zones discovered to date come to surface. The high-grade Audney vein, which returned surface chip samples ranging from 3,709 g/t gold over 0.20 m to 580 g/t gold over 0.50 m (see NR11-27; Nov. 8, 2011), cuts through the core of the Afric Zone and will also be targeted during this phase of the program.

As well GTA plans additional testing of the Gino vein system, located 300 metres north of the Afric Zone, where previous drilling returned numerous gold bearing intercepts, including 46.40 g/t gold and 41.60 g/t gold over 1.0 metre core lengths (see NR13-31; Dec. 10, 2013).

"We are pleased to see the resumption of drilling at Northshore as GTA looks to continue to expand on the size of, and increase the confidence in, the Afric Gold Zone and follow-up on the high-grade gold intercepts within the Audney and Gino vein systems," said Darin Wagner, President and CEO of Balmoral. "Between Northshore and our aggressive plans for the Detour Trend Project there will be a lot of news flow from the drills this summer as we look to grow our gold assets on multiple fronts."

The Northshore Property is a joint venture between Balmoral and GTA. GTA is the current operator of the Northshore joint venture and holds a 51.4% interest in the Property. Partial funding for the current program will come through the Ontario governments Junior Exploration Assistance Plan ("JEAP") with GTA providing the balance of the funding. Drilling is expected to take approximately one month to complete.

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, on behalf of Balmoral, supervised the previous work programs on the Northshore, visited the properties on multiple occasions, examined the drill core from the holes noted in this release, discussed, reviewed the results with senior on-site geological staff and reviewed the available analytical and quality control results. All reported intercepts are reported as core lengths and not true widths. At this time there is insufficient drill data to accurately calculate true dimensions.
