Prosper Gold 2,500m Phase 1 Drill Program Update:
Currie Project – Matheson, Ontario
Vancouver, British Columbia – January 7, 2019 – Prosper Gold Corp. (“Prosper Gold” or the “Company”)
(TSXV: PGX) is pleased to update the progress of the Phase 1 drill program at the Currie Project (the
“Property”) southwest of Matheson, Ontario. 3 holes for a total of 1,002m were drilled, logged, and sampled
in December. Assay results will be released when they are received and compiled. The drill is now back on
site to complete the remaining 1,500m of Phase 1.
Peter Bernier, President and CEO states, “ We are excited to be back on site to complete Pha se 1 and are
eagerly awaiting the assays. The remaining 1,500m will continue to target previously untested areas in this
historically underexplored region of the Timmins Gold Camp”

Currie Project Description
The 2,000 hectare Currie Project, 8 km south of the Destor-Porcupine fault, is underlain by altered volcanic
and metasedimentary rocks of the Abitibi greenstone belt. The property hosts the Grindstone Creek
occurrence, a Gold -Silver-Zinc zone in massive and semi -massive pyrite -sericite schist (GCZ). The
sequence strikes ESE and dips steeply southwest as interpreted from drilling. Rocks are strained and
especially the felsic volcanic rocks show a strong SW dipping single phase fabric into which any earlier
layering would have been transposed. Diabase, a dyke or sill, dips steeply with the strata. Drill intersection
modeling shows it is a branching anastomosing unit or swarm with two or three separate arms. The diabase
envelope trends ESE, dips steeply, and is about 70m at its thickest. Overburden thickness is consistently
about 50 m as shown by the earlier holes and the geology is inferred from drill results to date and from
geophysical data, mainly airborne magnetics. Kn own mineralization is between 120 m to 300 m below
surface and occupies a zone about 300 m long, 100 m wide.
Prosper has the option to acquire a 100% interest in the Property (for details see the Company’s March 5,
2018 News Release).
