BISON GOLD RESOURCES INC. PROVIDES EXPLORATION UPDATE

Bison Gold Resources Inc. has provided an update on the company's current and future exploration activities.

Apex property

Bison Gold has mobilized a field crew and commenced the second phase of a comprehensive exploration program on its Apex gold property near Snow Lake, Man. The work includes detailed geological and structural mapping on the Apex deposit, areas of known historical gold occurrences and high-priority magnetic anomalies outlined by the company's 2009 high-resolution airborne magnetic survey. As well, a property-wide reconnaissance prospecting, lithogeochemical and soil sampling program will be completed. This will include the new claims staked by the company this past spring (see news release in Stockwatch dated May 12, 2010). An induced polarization (IP)/resistivity survey is scheduled to commence later in the summer.

Central Manitoba property

The company has mobilized a field crew and commenced an exploration program of prospecting, detailed geological and structural mapping, and lithogeochemical and soil sampling on the Central Manitoba property near Bissett, Man. The program will evaluate previously underexplored areas of the property, re-evaluate known gold-bearing structures and investigate possible extensions of these structures.

The company is currently awaiting fire assay and geochemistry results from diamond drilling on the Ogama-Rockland and Valley vein gold-bearing structures. Results are expected within the next several weeks and will be released after receipt from the assay lab.

"The results from the summer field programs, in consort with a critical review and examination of historical data, should enable Bison Gold technical personnel to identify and prioritize drill targets on potential gold-bearing structures and trends for each property," stated David Benson, PGeo, vice-president of exploration for Bison Gold.

All exploration activities for Bison Gold are under the supervision and guidance of Mr. Benson, PGeo, a qualified person under NI 43-101.
