Prosperity Goldfields Discovers Multiple New Gold Targets at Kiyuk Lake, Nunavut

Prosperity Goldfields Corp. (the "Company" or "Prosperity") (TSX VENTURE:PPG) is
pleased to announce the following highlights from the summer exploration program
at its Kiyuk Lake project: 




--  New surface showing identified (Rasmussen) with values up to 6.96 g/t Au
--  Three untested targets delineated from grid till sampling with values up
    to 3.6 ppm Au 
--  New areas of interest outlined from regional prospecting with values up
    to 25 g/t Au



The newly identified Rasmussen showing, as shown in Figure 1, is characterized
by sericite and silica alteration with pyrrhotite and pyrite mineralization in
fragmental felsic volcanic host rocks. Several rock samples were collected in
the area including four samples ranging from 1.47 g/t Au to 6.96 g/t Au. The
northeast trending zone of mineralization and alteration has been traced for
approximately 80m proximal to a contact with interbedded siltstone and
limestone. Given the abundance of locally derived boulders of mineralization the
Rasmussen showing is drill-ready. 


Additional anomalous gold values were obtained from samples of glacially
transported boulders at several locations outside of known target areas. Three
areas of particular interest include a sample in the southwest corner of the
property with a gold value of 25 g/t, samples ranging from 1.25-2.4 g/t Au to
the north of Kiyuk Lake and 2.41-2.58 g/t Au northwest of the Rusty discovery.

In addition to the regional till sampling program completed over the entire
property (previous release: September 25th, 2012), the Company conducted grid
till sampling over the Rusty and Amundsen zones. 


The Rusty grid was completed as an orientation study to determine the size,
magnitude, and orientation of the till dispersal train associated with the
mineralized zone discovered in 2011 (37.8 m at 4.2 g/t Au; Drill hole RU11-001).
Elevated gold values extend southwest from the surface showing for 1 km with
values decreasing from 1.8 to 0.072 ppm Au in a down-ice direction (see the
attached figure). Bulk till samples from Rusty have yielded gold grain counts up
to 1720 grains based on preliminary results. These results confirm Rusty as a
high priority target for follow up drilling.


The Amundsen grid covered a 1.8 x 1.8 km area from Amundsen to North Snake.
Systematic till sampling has refined the bedrock source area for numerous
mineralized boulders in this region of sparse outcrop. Anomalous gold values in
till of up to 3.6 ppm were identified within the Amundsen grid, higher values
than Rusty. Several ribbon-shaped gold dispersal trains are evident in the data
and three new untested target areas have been outlined as shown in Figure 2.

The grid sampling program involved collecting between 1 and 2 kilograms of
sample material from C-horizon till. A total of 587 grid samples, including
field duplicates were collected. Grid samples were orientated perpendicular to
the average ice flow direction. Sample locations were adjusted to avoid
low-lying areas where C-horizon till samples were absent or masked beneath
glaciofluvial sediments. 


All rock and till assay results from the summer program have now been received.
From the results of the summer program the Company is excited to advance
Rasmussen and new target areas and will continue to develop the Rusty discovery.



A comprehensive QA/QC program is in place to monitor precision and accuracy of
assay results. All till samples were submitted with certified reference
materials and were sieved to -230 mesh by the Acme Analytical Laboratories
preparation lab in Timmins, Ontario. The pulps were transferred to Acme
Analytical Laboratories Vancouver, British Columbia for analysis. Pulps were
re-mixed after transport to account for gravity settling of Au grains during
transport. A 30 g portion was digested in aqua regia acid and analyzed for Au
and a suite of 36 elements by ICP-MS. Acme Analytical Laboratories is ISO 9001
accredited. Rock samples were submitted to SGS Laboratories for gold fire assay
and multi element ICP analysis. Gold grain counts are being completed by
Overburden Drilling Management.
