About New Dawn:
New Dawn is a Zimbabwe-focused junior gold company that is currently
expanding its consolidated gold production to 50,000 to 60,000 ounces
of gold within the next 18 to 24 months. New Dawn targets further
increasing gold production to 100,000 ounces of annualized gold
production within the next four to five years. New Dawn owns 100% of
the Turk/Angelus mine complex in Zimbabwe. New Dawn also owns a
controlling interest in Central African Gold ('CAG'), through its
acquisition of an 89% controlling interest in CAG in June 2010
(subsequently increased to approximately 96.4%). CAG owns substantial
gold mining assets and operations in Zimbabwe, as well as extensive
prospective acreage. In total, New Dawn operates three significant
gold camps in Zimbabwe containing six mines, three of which are
currently producing gold and in the process of expanding production.
Additionally, New Dawn, with its first mover advantage, is actively
exploring on highly prospective ground employing modern exploration
techniques and deploying capital in Zimbabwe, a country that is proven
to be geologically rich, highly prospective, and significantly under
explored.
New Dawn, with its large gold resource, existing production facilities
and current exploration efforts, is well on the path to becoming a
leading mid-tier gold mining company in Zimbabwe, active in both gold
production and gold exploration.
The Government of Zimbabwe is in the process of implementing an
indigenisation policy wherein all businesses are to be 51% owned by
indigenous Zimbabweans. New Dawn is continuing to discuss the outlines
of its indigenisation plan with the Government of Zimbabwe, the
objective of which is the design and implementation of a plan that both
complies with the relevant regulations and allows the Company to pursue
its goal of becoming a leading mid-tier gold mining company in
Zimbabwe. The Company will provide further information to shareholders
with respect to its indigenisation plan as and when such discussions
have been concluded, or when developments otherwise warrant.
The TSX has not reviewed and does not accept responsibility for the
adequacy or the accuracy of this release.
