Overview

New Dimension Resources' exploration team is led by a senior, highly experienced Vice President of Exploration. His world-wide background has helped NDR to develop a network of high-quality industry contacts throughout the Americas.

To maximize the efficiency of exploration expenditures, the Company utilizes its industry contacts and an ever-expanding prospector network to aid in locating projects for evaluation and prioritization by NDR geologists.

In North America, the Company is aggressively reviewing prospects, with the majority of these located in Canada and Nevada.

In South America,an exploration emphasis is given to higher grade precious metal prospects with underground or open-pit potential that can be developed and mined at low cost.

Reese River Project

The Reese River Project occupies a large land position within the northern portion of the Reese River Mining District, also known as the Austin District, in central Nevada. The land package includes the New York Canyon and Amador Canyon areas that experienced considerable historical silver production during the 1880's. New Dimension technical staff believes that there is significant potential on the claims for both high grade underground and bulk mineable silver and gold deposits. A surface evaluation program is ongoing with the objective of drilling priority targets at New York and Amador Canyon as soon as possible. A Plan of Operation to complete approximately 30 drill holes was submitted to the U.S. Forest Service in October with approval expected in the summer of 2008.

Trend Project

The Trend Project is located immediately south of the Barrick Gold - Kennecott Cortez Joint Venture (with published resources in excess of 30 million ounces of gold). In management's opinion, Trend shares many favourable geological characteristics with the Cortez JV deposits. Most notably, the Cortez Fault, which is recognized as a primary control for the deposits, crosses the central part of the Trend property. The property consists of 145 contiguous claims covering 12.8km2 and has been optioned to Calibre Mining Corp. who can earn up to a 65% interest. Calibre has informed New Dimension that work in 2008 will commence in late spring with compilation and review of all existing data followed by a drill program scheduled in the fall of 2008.

East Walker Project

The property covers an attractive precious metal target within the Walker Lane mineral belt, 20 kilometers west of the past producing Borealis gold mine in the State of Nevada. The company has an agreement with Gryphon Gold Corporation to acquire up to 65% interest in the project. New Dimension's technical staff believes the property could host important gold mineralization. Historic production from the nearby Borealis Mine was reportedly 600,000 ounces of gold. Beginning in June of 2008, New Dimension will complete additional field work on the East Walker Project to better define specific target areas and will complete the permitting requirements necessary to conduct a preliminary drill program.

Blackrock Project

The Blackrock Gold/Silver Project is located in the Como mining district of western Nevada and sits within a geologically similar setting to the famous Comstock mining district 19 kilometres to the northwest. The Blackrock Project contains a significant, largely untested, epithermal quartz vein system with a known strike length of 1,000 metres and widths of up to 15 metres. A March 2008 drill program focused on the southernmost 300 metre segment of the vein and consisted of 12 holes placed along the vein trend to penetrate the steeply dipping structure at multiple levels. These recent drill results will require further review before New Dimension decides its next program decision.

Hannapah Project

New Dimension Resources Ltd. acquired the Hannapah Gold Property by staking 109 mineral claims, covering 2300 hectares, near Tonopah in Western Nevada. The Hannapah property was identified during a generative exploration program conducted by the Company's consulting geologist, Steve Jones, and was staked due to its geologic similarities to the significant Midway deposit located 30 kilometres to the northwest. Midway is an advanced stage gold property owned by Midway Gold Corporation and Steve Jones was instrumental in its discovery in 1993 while employed as a senior geologist with Kennecott Exploration.


Domain Project

The Domain Gold Project totals 14,000 hectares and is situated approximately 120 kilometres southeast of Thompson, Manitoba within a highly prospective greenstone belt. The Domain Property is host to several steeply dipping, northwest trending gold-bearing structures up to 3.5km long and at least 100m in down-dip extension. In March 2006, the Company's JV partner, Rolling Rock Resources Corp., completed a ten hole drill program which produced very encouraging results. In February 2008, Rolling Rock commenced a follow up drill program consisting of approximately 2,500 metres of diamond drilling with the objective of further defining the mineralization orientation and delineating the full extent of higher grade zones. New Dimension plans to start a significant drill program within the fall of 2008.

Voisey's Bay Projects

New Dimension Resources was formed during the Voisey's Bay exploration rush and it continues to hold key ground in this attractive Labrador exploration district. One of the Company's claims, Project 61, is located within the Voisey's Bay Nickel Company Limited discovery claim block, approximately seven kilometres southwest of their deposit. Approximately 90 kilometres south of the Voisey's Bay deposits, the Company, along with Donner Minerals and others, hold an interest in a company formed to consolidate holdings in the South Voisey Bay area. This Company, SVB Nickel Company Ltd. controls in excess of 40,000 hectares covering geological targets with the potential for a discovery comparable to Voisey's Bay.


Cenepa Project

New Dimension Resources Ltd. has attained an irrevocable right to acquire ten mining petitions situated in Peru along the Ecuador border on trend and to the south of Aurelian Resources Inc.'s Condor Project and the Fruta Del Norte gold discovery. The mining petitions totaling 10,000 hectares and cover the projection into Peru of a 20 kilometre long, north-south trending mineral belt that includes Fruta Del Norte. The Company has been notified by its Peruvian legal counsel that the claims are anticipated to be granted this spring. There has been very limited exploration work in Peru where the mineral trend crosses the border, but the area is geologically highly permissive for the discovery.

Puma Dorado Project

The Puma Dorado Project is located near the community of Querobamba in the Department of Ayacucho, southwestern Peru. The Company has signed agreements to obtain a 100% interest in the property, which comprises two 1,000 hectare concessions that hosts a 1,700 metre long by 500 metre wide zone of massive magnetite with locally strong pyrite and disseminated chalcopyrite. Initial sampling by the Company, consisting of seven, one-to-three metre wide rock chip samples, reported values ranging from 0.50 to 3.2 g/t gold and from 0.26 to 7.8 % copper. The Company is currently in the process of carrying out additional field work to better define specific target areas and will, in due course, commence the permitting requirements necessary to conduct a preliminary drill program.

Odilin Project

The Odilin Project is located in the Department of Cajamarca, Peru and lies within the Chicama-Yanacocha trend, a Northeast-Southwest geological corridor that includes the Yanacocha (gold), Cerro Corona (copper-gold), and Minas Cascas (gold-silver) mines. The project area consists of one mining concession of 800 hectares and was aquired for its potential to contain porphyry-style copper/gold deposits. The emplacement of the Odilin porphyry system appears to be related to strong northeast trending faults associated with the regional Chicama-Yanacocha mineral trend. The Company will seek a joint venture partner to advance the Odilin project.

Cori Puncho Project

The Cori Puncho Gold Project is located in the Department of Puno, southern Peru. The property position covers the majority of a major north-northwest trending structural zone that can be traced for over five kilometers and is comprised of steeply easterly dipping volcanics and sediments mineralized with pyrite and specular hematite. A Phase 1 drill program, completed in May 2006, is highlighted by results that include 2.14 g/t gold over 26 meters. The Company has elected to seek a joint venture partner for the next phase of work on the Cori Puncho project.

Magma Project

NDR staked the Magma claims in 1999, during the relatively early days of the Esquel Gold Project, which is now owned by Yamana Gold. The two claims total 5,000 hectares in size and were located to cover the projected strike extensions of known mineralization on the Esquel mineral trend. At last report, the measured and indicated resources of Esquel stand at 3,276,000 ounces gold and 5,866,000 ounces of silver with 75% of this grading in excess of 10.5 g/t gold and 18.2 g/t silver. Recent local concerns have slowed the project, but the economics of Esquel remain favorable.
