New Dimension Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:NDR) (the "Company" or "New
Dimension") is pleased to provide an update on the Cenepa gold project in
northern Peru. The Project covers the very attractive geological terrain
adjacent to the Kinross Gold Corp. ("Kinross") Condor Project and Fruta del
Norte gold deposit in Ecuador (please click to view map:

During the first week of January, Tom Burkhart, V.P. of Exploration for New
Dimension participated in several meetings in Lima Peru with various parties and
stakeholders currently active in northern Peru along the border with Ecuador.
Mr. Burkhart reports that results of the meetings were very positive and
provided the Company with significant insight on how best to address several key
issues including exploration logistics, social networking, various planning and
access options to the Cenepa Project. Mr. Burkhart also reports that he was
successful in establishing contact with a local community leader from the Cenepa
region who was very helpful in providing essential information on the area and
the communities that reside within the Cenepa boundaries. The Company has
engaged this community leader and his associates to serve as a scouting party to
enter the Cenepa claims with the objective of identify access routes into the
claims and locating possible mineral occurrences. These individuals have
prospecting experience and will obtain samples from any mineralized areas that
are identified. The individuals left for the property on January 12th. This
development with the local community is an important step in developing
community relations and gaining key information for the Company's short term
course of action on advancing its Cenepa Project.


The Cenepa Project is comprised of ten mining concessions totaling approximately
9,000 hectares in northern Peru along its border with Ecuador. The concessions,
staked by Minera NDR Peru ("NDR Peru") in 2006, cover the projection of a 20
kilometre long north-south trending mineral belt that includes Kinross' Condor
Project and the Fruta del Norte gold discovery. The Company has verified title
for six concessions and anticipates title for the remaining four concessions
shortly.


The Condor Project is situated in Ecuador near the Peruvian border and was
acquired by Kinross in September 2008 through the acquisition of Aurelian
Resources Inc. The Kinross property includes a NI 43-101 compliant Inferred
Mineral Resource at Fruta del Norte consisting of 58.9 million tonnes grading
7.2 g/t gold and 11.8 g/t silver containing 13.7 million ounces of gold and 22.4
million ounces of silver. Kinross currently have 4 drill rigs active on the
project and intend to complete a pre-feasibility study in 2010.


Also within the Condor Project is the Aquas Mesas Sur prospect, which includes
an announced drill intercept of 51.06 g/t gold over 9.2 metres. This prospect is
the southern-most known gold occurrence within this newly emerging gold belt and
is located only five kilometers north, and on trend with, NDR Peru's Cenepa
concessions. Although there has been very limited exploration work in Peru where
the mineral trend crosses the border, the Company believes the area is
geologically highly permissive for the discovery of significant gold deposits.


The technical information in this news release has been prepared in accordance
with Canadian regulatory requirements set out in National Instrument 43-101 and
reviewed by Thomas Burkhart, the Company's Vice President of Exploration, a
director and a Qualified Person under NI 43-101.
