New Dimension Resources (TSX VENTURE:NDR) has received assay results from 12
reverse circulation drill holes (808 meters) completed on its Blackrock gold
project located in the Como mining district of western Nevada. The Blackrock
project contains a previously untested, easterly dipping epithermal quartz vein
system with a strike length of 1,000 meters with widths of up to 15 meters.
Eleven angle holes and one vertical hole, varying in depths from 40 to 110
meters, tested the down dip extension of known mineralization. Drilling focused
on the southernmost 300 meter segment of the structure where vein exposures form
nearly continuous outcroppings. All of the drill holes encountered a strong
vein-structure that reported highly anomalous and continuous gold values
throughout as demonstrated in drill-hole BR-06, which reported a continuous 32
meter zone of anomalous gold averaging 0.72 g/t (not true thickness). Gold
values averaging over 0.50 g/t are tabulated below.

(i) Not true thickness
The vein remains open at depth and along strike to the north with the northern
most drill hole (BR-10) demonstrating 52 meters of veining (true width is
unknown but is estimated at 35 meters) averaging 200 ppb gold. This interval
indicates the vein is strengthening to the north and the possibility of
identifying important ore chutes within the Blackrock vein system remains
viable. After a period of data compilation and review, the Company will
formulate its plans for the Blackrock project.
Blackrock drill samples were transported to American Assay Labs in Sparks Nevada
and gold was analyzed by fire assay methods using a 30 gram charge. The Company
maintains a quality control program consistent with industry standards including
submitting control samples and sample blanks for assay with drill samples.
Company exploration programs are under the supervision of Thomas Burkhart, the
Company's Vice President of Exploration, and a Qualified Person under NI 43-101.
