New Destiny Appoints Al Beaton (P.Eng) as a Director

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Vancouver, British Columbia – February 20, 2018 – New Destiny Mining Corp. (TSX-V:

NED), (the “Company” or “NED”) is pleased to announce that it has appointed Al Beaton

(P.Eng) to the board of directors.

Mr. Beaton has been actively involved in mining operations for over 40 years. Since becoming a

member of the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of British Columbia in

1974, he has over 30 years of experience as mine manager for mining and development

operations throughout Africa and across Canada. Mr. Beaton was the mine manager for Erickson

Gold Mine from 1979 to 1986, which, at its peak, was the No. 1 gold producer in British

Columbia. Throughout his career, he has been involved in over 50 mining and civil jobs in B.C.

and has thus gained a strong perspective on mining techniques over a wide diversity of mining

projects.

Mr. Beaton, has been involved with the original Treasure Mountain Mine since its discovery in

the 1980's and worked closely with Magnus Bratlien, the prospector who advanced the project

over the years. Mr. Beaton was responsible for four levels of development and over 1000 feet of

vertical development - over 10,000 feet with drifts and raises - prior to commercial production by

Huldra Silver Inc. (currently Nicola Mining Inc.) where Mr. Beaton served as the Mine Manager

over its three years of operations.

Mr. Beaton’ extensive knowledge of the region will be a major asset for developing New

Destiny’s Treasure Mountain Silver Project which is immediately adjacent to the former mine.

Al Beaton stated, “this is an area that has been underexplored and underdeveloped, with untapped

potential.”

The company is extremely pleased to have a person of Al’s high caliber join its board. His

extensive mining experience and astute knowledge of this area will be a considerable asset to the

board of New Destiny Mining Corp. and its shareholders as the company moves forward and

expands its technical team.
