TSXV : NDR FOCUS ON HIGH GRADE PRECIOUS METALS PROJECTS IN ARGENTINA MAY 2018 Forward Looking Statements This document may contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation and the United
Forward Looking Statements
This document may contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation and the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this document and New Dimension does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect New Dimension management’s expectations or beliefs regarding future events and include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the ability to raise funds and the availability of funds, future plans for exploration and development, including the obtaining of necessary permits, the potential of New Dimension’s properties to contain mineralization, whether or not at economically interesting grades, the timing of exploration and development work, the appointment of management and directors, and the filing of a technical report, and the ability of New Dimension to attract other mining companies to enter into a joint venture or acquire one or more of New Dimension’s properties. In certain cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "plans", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "budget", "scheduled", "estimates", "forecasts", "intends", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate",
- r "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved" or the negative of these
terms or comparable terminology. By their very nature forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of New Dimension to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, risks related to actual results of exploration activities; general economic conditions and the availability of investment funds, changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; fluctuations in prices
- f minerals and in exchange rates; variations in grade; regulatory and political risk, environmental risks, accidents, labour disputes and other risks of the mining industry; delays in obtaining governmental
approvals or financing; the absence of potential joint venture partners or acquirers of New Dimension’s properties; as well as those factors detailed from time to time in New Dimension’s interim and annual financial statements and management's discussion and analysis of those statements, all of which are filed and available for review on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Although New Dimension has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. This presentation also contains or references certain market, industry and peer group data which is based upon information from independent industry publications, market research, analyst reports and surveys and other publicly available sources. Although the Company believe these sources to be generally reliable, such information is subject to interpretation and cannot be verified with complete certainty due to limits on the availability and reliability of raw data, the voluntary nature of the data gathering process and other inherent limitations and uncertainties. The Company has not independently verified any

Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves have not yet demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources at the Las Calandrias Project may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, sociopolitical, marketing, or other relevant issues. Los Cisnes and Sierra Blanca are earlier stage exploration properties and do not contain any mineral resource estimates as defined by National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”). QUALIFIED PERSON (QP) STATEMENT The technical and scientific information contained in this presentation has been reviewed and approved for release by Dr. Eric Roth, the Company's President & CEO.

1. See press release dated February 20, 2018; NI 43101 technical report filed on April 10, 2018 ; see “Appendix” slide re: mineral resource estimate. 2. Gold equivalent ounces (“AuEq oz”) are calculated by New Dimension with reference to a variable cut-off grade (0.3 g/t AuEq for oxide and transition material and 0.7 g/t AuEq for primary), and by multiplying mineralized tonnes by gold equivalent grade, dividing by 31.1, and assuming 100% metallurgical recovery. 3. Gold equivalent grades are calculated by dividing silver grades by 60, adding this value to the gold grade, and assuming no differences in metallurgical recovery for gold and silver. See “Appendix” for further details.

22 1 The Global Mineral Resource has been calculated using a variable cutoff grade for varying metallurgical recoveries: 0.3 gAuEq/t for oxide and transition material and 0.7 gAuEq/t for primary. 2 Gold equivalent grades are calculated by dividing silver grades by 60, adding this value to the gold grade, and assuming no differences in metallurgical recovery for gold and silver. The resource estimate was completed by Steven Ristorcelli, of Mine Development Associates, an Independent Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”). Further details of the estimation methods and procedures are available in the NI 43-101 report which was filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) on April 10, 2018. Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves have not yet demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, sociopolitical, marketing, or other relevant issues The estimate is based on the results from 44,911 metres of drilling in 326 diamond drill holes, and reported of This mineral resource estimate included contributions from both the bulk tonnage, rhyolite dome-hosted Calandria Sur deposit and the high-grade Calandria Norte vein/breccia system
