[{"type":"text","content":"New Kimberlite Pipe Discovery at Dunnedin's Kahuna ProjectVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 19, 2018) - Dunnedin Ventures Inc. (TSXV: DVI)  (the \"Company\" of \"Dunnedin\") today provided an update on rotary air-blast ('RAB') drilling at its 100% owned Kahuna Diamond Project in Nunavut. The Company reports it has discovered a new kimberlite pipe (KH10-11) and drill-tested two additional historic pipes. Diamond recovery tests will begin shortly, and first results are expected in 8-10 weeks.Highlights include:New KH10-11 kimberlite pipe discovery, and two historic pipes (KD900 and KD230) re-drilled to review diamond content and potentially expand diamond-bearing phasesNew KH10-11 pipe was drilled to 112 metres and KD900 drilled to 114 metres vertically. The newly discovered pipe KH10-11 remains open at depthIndicator minerals were observed in kimberlitic material recovered from two of the three pipes (KH10-11 and KD900), including garnet, picroilemite, and olivine - similar to significantly diamond bearing kimberlite drilled on the property to-date. Most were observed in the newly discovered KH10-11 pipe More than three tonnes of kimberlitic material was collected from these three pipes and is available for diamond analysisApproximately one tonne of representative kimberlitic material from all three pipes was shipped and prioritised for diamond recovery at CF Mineral Research Ltd. ('CFM') in Kelowna, British ColumbiaChris Taylor, CEO of Dunnedin commented, \"We are excited to have tested three kimberlite pipes, one of which represents a new discovery and has over 100 metres of continuous kimberlite from surface. We plan to return as soon as possible to determine the size and potential of not only these pipes, but also several additional nearby lookalike targets. The Company has expedited select material from each pipe for diamond recovery. Numerous pipe and dike targets remain untested and these will be drilled as soon as practical, and with new diamond results in-hand to guide us.\"2018 Summer Program SummaryThe 2018 summer RAB drilling program was designed to specifically test kimberlite pipe targets in areas with diamond indicator minerals (\"DIMs\") in till. Progress includes:17 targets were successfully drill tested, three of which were kimberlite pipes (see Figure 1)A total of 1,081 metres of RAB...
