New Dimension Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: NDR) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Dimension Resources (USA) Inc. (the "Company" or "New Dimension") are pleased to report that a core drill has been mobilized to commence a two drill-hole program (totaling approximately 1,500 feet) at the Company's Reese River Project (the "Property" or "Reese River") in Nevada.

The core drill program will follow-up on a recently completed Phase I reverse circulation ("RC") drill program, (see NDR Press Release #09-09) and will be positioned to test a contact zone in the New York Canyon area where the recent RC drilling was unable to reach target depth due to high water flows.

The Company believes that the faulted contact between sedimentary rocks and an underlying intrusive body represents a favorable host environment for silver deposition and is thought to have served as an important feeder to the high-grade silver veins previously mined within the sediments in the district.

This model is supported by an abundance of historic mining activity along the contact and the Company's recent RC drill-hole (RR-6) that intersected the contact and reported noteworthy mineralization, with silver values over 13.7 meters grading at an average of 36.8 g/t (including 1.5 meters grading 182 g/t). (Map of the Section: http://media3.marketwire.com/r/section).

The contact zone underlying New York Canyon represents a large target area that has not been drill tested to date. The two core drill holes will be positioned within the heart of the historic mining area where the bulk of past production was realized from veins in the sediments and will be placed approximately 200 metres apart to test the east and west portions of the main zone of mineralization.

The first core hole (DD-A) will be drilled at the site of the Company's RC drill-hole RR-8, which averaged 3.6 g/t silver over its final 77 meters to a depth of 132.6 metres. Core hole DD-A is to be drilled to a depth of approximately 300 metres. A second core hole (DD-B) will be located at the site of the Company's RC drill-hole RR-10 that intersected anomalous silver throughout its entire length (88 metres grading 3.25 g/t) to a depth of 93 metres. Core hole DD-B is to be drilled to a depth of approximately 150 metres. (Map of the Plan: http://media3.marketwire.com/r/plan)

Reese River Project - Background Information

New Dimension's Reese River Project is located near Austin, Nevada, with excellent access and infrastructure. Reported historical silver production from the Austin District exceeded 20 million ounces with the majority of production coming from bonanza grade veins.

International Minerals Corporation can earn a 60% interest in the Reese River by undertaking an aggregate of US$1.0 million in exploration expenditures and maintaining the underlying property obligations over a four year period. International Minerals can also acquire an additional 10% interest (for a total interest of 70%) by funding and completing a Feasibility Study within eight years (by August 1, 2017). The overall drill program is managed by New Dimension with International Minerals Corporation funding 100% of the cost of the program.
