NEWS RELEASE
Prosper Gold Expands Cyprus Project to 61,880 Hectares
Vancouver, British Columbia – February 26, 202 4 – Prosper Gold Corp. ( “Prosper Gold” or the
“Company”) (TSXV:PGX) is pleased to announce that the Company has acquired an additional 60,512
hectares by means of staking to increase the Cyprus Project land position to 61,880 hectares.
“The acquisition of 150,000 acres of prospective ground in north -central British Columbia establishes the
Cyprus Project as one of the largest in the region ,” commented Peter Bernier, CEO. “ The exploration
potential of this newly acquired ground is bolstered by the presence of significant copper -gold
mineralization at the Kaza and Northstar prospects. We will be systematically exploring this ground,
beginning with a district -scale ZTEM survey covering 675 km 2, generating targets under cover and at
depth.”
The Cyprus Project
The road-accessible Cyprus Project is situated in north-central British Columbia, Canada (Figure 1). The
61,880 hectare Project includes the historical Kaza and Northstar copper prospects (see the Company's
February 20, 202 4 news releases for details ) and is considered a district -scale copper -gold porphyry
exploration Project.
At the historical Kaza copper-gold prospect, soil samples up to 5.09 gpt gold and 10,000 ppm copper and
surface rock chip samples from 1973 including 0.88% copper, 15.4 gpt gold and 120 gpt silver over 4.0
metres coincide with a 2,000 metre by 600 area of high IP chargeability and low magnetic respons e. The
presence of sparse feldspar porphyry dikes and the sulphide assemblages present at surface suggest copper-
gold porphyry mineralization may exist at depth.
Copper mineralization at the Northstar prospect consists of vein-hosted and disseminated chalcocite and
bornite within faulted and fractured andesite. Surface trench sampling results includes 23.0 metres grading
2.1% copper and historical drilling intercepts include 0.55% copper over 138.2 metres. Zones of copper
mineralization outlined by previous operators at the Northstar prospect are likely driven by a magmatic -
hydrothermal system in the immediate vicinity.

District-scale Exploration Upside
A broad valley with very little outcrop exposure is situated to the southwest of the Kaza and Northstar
prospects (Figure 2). The roughly 15 km wide valley is the manifestation of a series of northwest-trending
faults which represents a district-scale exploration opportunity in the search for large copper-gold porphyry
deposits. The valley is underlain by a complex and strong magnetic response related to long-lived intrusive
activity in this portion of the volcano-plutonic arc. The Company is planning to commission a ZTEM survey
covering 675 km2 that will outline targets in this covered and prospective portion of the Cyprus Project.
