NEWS RELEASE

GMD Resource Corp (the "Company") has signed a contract with Geoterrex-Dighem to immediately commence a comprehensive 13,650 line kilometer helicopter-borne magnetic and electromagnetic geophysical survey on the Royce Group diamond property (the "Property"), north of Yellowknife, NWT. The geophysical program is designed to examine the portion of the Property where the Company has identified;

concentrations of kimberlite indicator minerals that are;
coarse grained (near to source)
angular (near to source)
preserved reaction-rim and other delicate surface textures (near to source)
indicative of diamond stability (G-10 pyrope, Cr-diopside)
indicative of diamond preservation (high Cr Mg-ilmenite)
contains termination of several glacial dispersion trains
contains several magnetic signatures previously identified in an initial fixed-wing aeromagnetic survey.
Two small fragments of kimberlite.

The survey is expected to be completed in 4 weeks. Field data will be used to identify high-priority targets that can be ground checked immediately. The 1998 exploration program includes geophysics, follow-up till sampling and the geological mapping of targets which are planned to be tested by diamond drilling later this summer.

The Company also announces it has received final VSE approval for $808,600, and preliminary approval of the balance of the $1,330,640 financing announced May 12, 1998 (News release #196).
