VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 08, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Prosper Gold Corp. ("Prosper Gold" or the "Company") (TSXV:PGX) is pleased to announce it has commissioned Abitibi Geophysics Ltd. to complete a 58 line-kilometre Induced Polarization (“IP”) survey at the Golden Sidewalk Project (the “Project”) in the Birch-Uchi region of Red Lake. The survey will cover the newly identified Golden Corridor extending the historical IP coverage eastward (for details of the Golden Corridor see the Company’s Dec. 1, 2020 news release). The Company also announces that it has, subject to all required regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange"), retained CM-Equity AG (“CM”) to provide marketing, market awareness and corporate broker services, pursuant to agreements entered into between the Corporation and CM dated as of February 17th, 2021 (the “CM Agreement”).
“The Company engaged a leading geophysical services company Abitibi Geophysics to extend historical IP coverage eastward at the Golden Corridor focusing on the large pristine gold grain-in-till anomaly outlined by our team. The survey will also cover the E-12 till anomaly which is another target identified in 2020 that has not yet seen follow-up groundwork. E-12 lies three-and-a-half kilometres east along-trend from the Golden Corridor,” commented Peter Bernier, CEO. “As we lead up to our 2021 drilling program, we are pleased to have retained Michael and his team at CM Equity to help give the Company exposure to European retail and institutional investors.”

Abitibi Geophysics will be utilizing its proprietary OreVision® technology which can reveal targets at a greater depth than conventional IP without compromising near-surface resolution. The survey will extend eastward from the Golden Corridor to the E-12 till anomaly (Figure 1). The E-12 anomaly, outlined during Prosper Gold’s summer 2020 reconnaissance till survey, is defined as a 1,300 m long gold grain-in-till anomaly that is open to the east and west.

About the Golden Sidewalk
The Golden Sidewalk is a district-scale gold exploration project covering over 160 square kilometres of contiguous mineral claims and mining leases (see the Company's Aug. 10, Sept. 8, and Sept. 15, 2020 news releases for details) in the western Birch-Uchi Greenstone Belt, approximately 60 km east of Red Lake, Ontario. The vehicle-accessible project straddles 12 kilometres of the Balmer Assemblage – Narrow Lake Assemblage unconformity, a regional-scale feature that has been the Red Lake exploration guide, but which has seen limited exploration in the project area. The recently identified “Golden Corridor” lies immediately north of the unconformity in the western portion of the property and is characterized as a highly prospective, greater than 5 kilometre trend of coincident favourable magnetic and resistivity lineaments supported by highly anomalous gold-in-till samples covering 3.3 by 0.5 kilometres.
