TSX-V: NDR

VANCOUVER, Nov. 21, 2018 /CNW/ - New Dimension Resources Ltd. (TSXV: NDR) (the "Company", "NDR", or "New Dimension") is pleased to provide the following update on ongoing exploration activities on its 100%-owned portfolio of high-grade gold-silver projects in Santa Cruz, Argentina, and at the Company's two Canadian projects, Savant Lake and Domain.     

Overview of Activities

Santa Cruz Projects, Argentina

Field activities in Santa Cruz remain focused on the discovery of new high-grade gold-silver resources, with field crews currently working on the evaluation and prioritization of drill targets at the Sierra Blanca project. In addition, further field work is scheduled to be undertaken on high-grade gold-silver targets in the Las Calandrias and Los Cisnes districts over the southern summer field season. Follow-up drill testing is currently planned for 2019.

Las Calandrias Project (Figures 1 & 2)

• An independent National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") technical report for the updated Las Calandrias Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE") has been filed on SEDAR. The updated MRE, completed by AGP Mining Consultants Inc., confirmed the robust nature of the Las Calandrias gold-silver resource and reported a total Indicated Category resource of 391,000 ounces ("oz") gold and 6,070,000 oz silver for the combined Calandria Sur and Calandria Norte deposits (see Appendix 1 and the Company's press release dated October 5, 2018 for further detail).
  
  
• The Company continues to evaluate extensions to known high-grade gold mineralization in the Morena vein/breccia deposit and the adjacent Despreciada vein system. The Company's 2018 diamond drill campaign successfully extended known high-grade gold mineralization at Morena (e.g. 4.2m @ 6.9 grams per tonne [g/t] Au + 13 g/t Ag from 18.8m downhole, including 1.6m @ 12.0 g/t Au + 22 g/t Ag from 19.7m downhole, in CAL18-12; see Company press release dated September 13, 2018), with modeling of the Morena system ongoing.

Sierra Blanca Project (Figures 3 & 4)

Field activities are currently focused on the evaluation and ranking of precious metals vein targets at the Sierra Blanca Project, which is located 40km NW of AngloGold Ashanti's Cerro Vanguardia gold mine and immediately adjacent to Austral Gold's Pinguino gold-silver project. Sierra Blanca hosts an extensive epithermal "vein field" characterized by E-W and NW-trending veins with high-grade silver-gold mineralization, especially in the Chala-Achen sector. The upcoming work program will focus on evaluating both extensions to the known mineralization at Chala-Achen, in addition to evaluating untested sectors such as El Tranquilo, through a combination of geochemistry, geology / vein texture analysis, and low-cost ground geophysics.       

Los Cisnes Project

•  During October, 2018, the Company completed a geochemical (LAG) sample grid and ground magnetic survey over prospective areas located to the south of the El Brio high-grade vein/breccia structure at the Los Cisnes Project. Results are pending and will assist in the evaluation of both parallel and cross-cutting structures to El Brio which may host new silver-gold shoots. 
  
  
• A metallurgical testwork program has also been initiated on 6 samples from the Calandria Norte deposit. This testwork will follow-up on the preliminary Leachwell analyses that were completed in 2011 by Mariana Resources Ltd, and which suggested amenability of the Calandria Norte mineralization to processing techniques utilizing leaching. 

Canadian Projects

• At the Savant Lake Project (Figure 5 - 7), which is located approximately 240km NW of Thunder Bay, Ontario, an NDR field crew completed 10 days of late-season prospecting with the primary aim of field-checking known high-grade surface gold workings and evaluating along-strike extensions to the known mineralized areas. The Company's field crews visited most of the historic gold workings (especially L28, where high-grade gold mineralization was confirmed through a grab sample returning 8.1 g/t Au), and were successful in discovering a new gold zone located approximately 600m along strike from the Stillar Bay surface gold working (Figure 6). 
  
  
• At the Domain Project in NE Manitoba, NDR has been in discussions with JV partner Yamana Gold, regarding the potential timing and scale of the next round of field work at the project. Historic drilling at Domain has intersected a main zone of gold mineralization over an approximate strike length of 500m and to a vertical depth of 300m, with gold mineralization remaining open in all directions. Gold mineralization at Domain is associated with NW-trending shear zone with magnetite-rich mudstones being the main hosts to mineralization. Yamana Gold is the Project Operator, and is currently in the progress of renewing access agreements with the local First Nation group at Domain.  NDR holds a residual 29.56% participating interest. 

Eric Roth, New Dimension's CEO, commented today: "I am pleased to be able to report significant progress in our exploration activities, both within our large Santa Cruz gold-silver portfolio and on our Canadian gold assets. In Santa Cruz, our focus remains on the discovery of high-grade gold-silver deposits with our current emphasis being on the evaluation of the extensive epithermal vein field at Sierra Blanca. Further upside also exists in the Las Calandrias and Los Cisnes districts, with field work planned to continue in these areas over the coming months. Separately, we are very encouraged by the upside potential at both the Savant Lake and Domain projects, where we expect to undertake further exploration activities in 2019".

Sierra Blanca Project

The Sierra Blanca Project is an advanced high-grade silver(-gold) project located approximately 40km NW of AngloGold Ashanti's Cerro Vanguardia gold-silver mine. Previous exploration by Mariana Resources Ltd identified in excess of 22km of cumulative vein strike length at Sierra Blanca, however, many veins extend under post-mineralization cover and therefore total strike lengths are likely to be understated.  Most of the work completed to date at Sierra Blanca has been focused on the E-W-trending Chala-Achen and Lucila vein systems, with high-grade silver values having been derived from surface trenching at Chala-Achen (including 9.4m @ 2,362 g/t Ag; source Mariana Resources Ltd). Significant gold-silver values were also derived from initial drilling at Chala-Achen, including 3m@ 9.5 g/t Au + 28 g/t Ag in drill hole CHD-61.  

Priority untested targets at Sierra Blanca include the NW-trending Veta Ana, El Tranquilo, Laguna, Cerro Bola, and Vetarron vein systems, together with the E-W-trending La Cresta vein system. The orientation of these veins is particularly noteworthy, as in most precious metals deposits in the Deseado Massif, NW is the preferred structural orientation for the localization of high-grade precious metals shoots. Many of the NW-trending veins at Sierra Blanca extend to New Dimension's eastern property boundary and are also interpreted to extend further in to Austral Gold's neighboring Pinguino gold-silver property.
