NDR New Dimension Resources Ltd

New Dimension Resources Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:NDR) (the "Company" or "New
Dimension") is pleased to report the results of its Phase I field evaluation of
12 properties under option from Strategic Metals Ltd. ("Strategic Metals"), that
comprise the Lansing Project ("Lansing"), located in Yukon and the Gild Project
("Gild"), located in NWT. Highlights of the Phase I evaluation include two
strongly anomalous soil samples which returned 8.32 g/t gold and 2.50 g/t gold
from the Lance Property within the Lansing Project. 


LANSING PROJECT:

Of the 12 properties evaluated, 11 of these comprise the Lansing Project and are
located within the prospective Tombstone Gold Belt in central Yukon. The project
area lies 30 to 110 kilometres south of ATAC Resources Ltd.'s large Rau property
(which is within the Rackla Gold Belt), and cover areas anomalous in any or all
gold, silver, copper, lead, zinc, antimony, bismuth and arsenic as defined by
regional Geological Survey of Canada stream sediment surveys. To view a map

In June this year, field crews led by consultants, Archer, Cathro & Associates
conducted Phase I reconnaissance programs on each of the 11 properties. During
the initial program, 526 samples were collected with encouraging results
obtained from 7 of the 11 properties. Based on these initial results an
additional 360 claims have been staked, increasing the total size of the project
to 770 claims covering more than 150 square kilometers. To further investigate
these positive results, field crews have now completed a follow up Phase II
exploration program with focus on the Lance and Liam Properties. Results from
the Phase II program are pending and will be released when available.


Lance Property (Lansing Project):

At the Lance Property, strongly elevated gold, arsenic, bismuth and tungsten
soil values outline four target areas distributed over approximately 2
kilometres, as described below: 




--  The first target comprises a cluster of three strongly anomalous soil
    samples, including the two highest gold values on the property being
    8.32 and 2.50 g/t gold, respectively. Follow up prospecting of the
    anomalous gold-in-soil sites in this area did not reveal any obvious
    source for the elevated results. The sampled sites lie along a ridge
    crest that is cut by at least three broad sub-parallel gullies which
    could mark mineralized structures. 

--  The second target consists of a single strongly elevated gold-in-soil
    value of 261 ppb gold, which lies immediately downslope from an
    arsenopyrite-rich quartz vein that is only locally exposed through
    cover. 

--  The third target is defined by a gold-in-soil value of 337 ppb gold.
    Prospecting in the area of the sample revealed a relatively large,
    cliffy, quartz stockwork zone within a grainy, siliceous clastic unit. 

--  The fourth target comprises a high gold-in-soil value of 1.4 g/t. The
    target lies below tree-line in an area with extensive moss cover.
    Prospecting in the immediate vicinity of the sample revealed intrusive
    talus with locally hornfelsed meta sediments. All four of the gold
    targets are supported by strong arsenic and antimony values. This target
    is distinguished from the other three by accompanying strongly elevated
    tungsten values. 



On the basis of the promising gold results obtained to date from the soil
samples, additional staking has been completed by the Company. Further
exploration on the Lance property has included: additional closely spaced (100 x
50m) grid and contour soil sampling in areas that are known to contain elevated
metal values; reconnaissance-scale contour soil sampling and stream sampling on
the ground covered by the newly staked claims; and detailed prospecting and
mapping within anomalous areas. 


Liam Property (Lansing Project):

At the Liam Property, an approximate, 2,000 by 1,500 metre arsenic and
gold-in-soil anomaly was defined during initial exploration. Values for gold and
arsenic-in-soil and silt that make up the anomaly range from 10 to 81 ppb gold
and 50 to 5990 ppm arsenic. Based on these positive initial geochemical results,
additional contiguous claims were staked. To further assess the area, 96 stream
sediment and contour soil samples were collected during Phase II follow-up work.
These samples were positioned uphill from the known arsenic-gold anomaly and in
an area that had not previously been explored. Exploration in the vicinity of
the elevated arsenic and gold-in-soil values has revealed a zone of
arsenopyrite-bearing veins and skarn horizons with the arsenopyrite varying from
disseminated to semi-massive. To determine the full extent of this zone will
require additional field work; however, to date mineralization has been traced
along a 55 metre strike length. The arsenopyrite mineralization lies on a steep
slope, approximately 500 metres uphill of the nearest anomalous soil sample
sites.


Additional follow up prospecting and contour soil sampling has also been
completed on five other properties within the Lansing Project, with these Phase
II results pending.


GILD PROJECT:

At the Gild Project located in NWT, initial rock sampling yielded elevated
results for silver, lead and zinc, but no anomalous gold values were reported.
Results from a soil sampling program are still outstanding and future work on
the project will be contingent on these results.


About the Lansing and Gild Projects

New Dimension has an option to earn up to a 100% interest in 12 properties
consisting of the Lansing and Gild Projects. The Properties were originally
staked by Strategic Metals Ltd. ("Strategic Metals") following an extensive
review of a geological data base compiled by Archer, Cathro & Associates, an
independent group of consulting geological engineers and geoscientists with
extensive exploration experience in the Yukon. Strategic Metals acquired the
Properties with the objective of identifying targets similar to discoveries
found on ATAC Resources' Rackla gold project; where a 40,000 metre drill program
is currently underway. The Rau Property, located 110 kilometres to the west of
the Gild Project and 30 to 110 kilometres north of the Lansing Project, has
returned exceptional drill results including 65.20 metres of 4.65 g/t gold and
21.13 metres of 8.01 g/t gold on the Osiris and Conrad zones, respectively.
