Prophecy Platinum Corp. (TSX VENTURE:NKL)(OTCQX:PNIKF) "Prophecy
Platinum" or the "Company" is pleased to announce the first results
from the 2013 field program at its 100%-owned Wellgreen PGM-Ni-Cu
project, located in the southwest of Canada's Yukon Territory. The
Company has identified a significant, newly interpreted area of
mineralization towards the eastern end of the deposit that included
353 metres of continuous mineralization grading 2.62 g/t platinum
equivalent ("Pt Eq.")(1), comprised of 0.93 g/t 3E PGMs (Pt+Pd+Au),
0.31% Ni and 0.33% Cu. Please refer to the footnote below regarding
the Company's use of Pt Eq.
Highlights
Re-logging and analysis of previously unreleased drill core
assays by the Company's geological team has identified a broad
mineralized area in the Far East Zone which is believed to extend
the main Wellgreen deposit to the north. Historically, drilling in
the main Wellgreen deposit was stopped upon entering the "footwall"
sediments, which were assumed to be the northern boundary to
mineralization. This drilling had defined the main Wellgreen
deposit as a south dipping tabular body approximately 2.5
kilometres in length that is typically 100-300 metres in width with
some zones of over 500 metres of continuous mineralization grading
in excess of 2 g/t Pt Eq. Based on this new interpretation of drill
holes in the Far East Zone, the historic footwall sediment package
thought to define the northern boundary of the Wellgreen deposit
does not extend to depth, but rather exhibits a wedge-like
geometry. This suggests that there is potential for a large area of
additional PGM-Ni-Cu mineralization in the pit model beneath and to
the north of the sediment package. In addition, this newly
recognized zone may connect the North Arm ultramafic body to the
main Wellgreen deposit, potentially converting a large area which
was modeled as unmineralized in the pit model to an area which has
potential to become mineralized blocks. This could have the
positive effect of reducing the life of mine strip ratio for the
project.
This Far East Zone also exhibits areas of significantly higher
grades than the average of the Wellgreen deposit that may be
amenable to selective mining of higher grade material early in the
mine life. The Far East Zone is completely open to the west, east
and to the north. More exploration work is being conducted by the
Company in this area to gain a better understanding of its
mineralization and the broader implications for the Wellgreen
deposit as a whole.
Highlight intercepts from the newly interpreted mineralized area
include the following, expressed in platinum equivalent and 3E PGM
(platinum + palladium + gold) (see definitions below):
-- WS-154 intersected five intervals totaling 501.2 metres grading 1.84 g/t
Pt Eq. (0.55 g/t 3E PGMs with 0.26% Ni and 0.19% Cu) for a total Pt Eq.
grade thickness of 922 g/t-m
-- WS-160 intersected two intervals totaling 443.6 metres grading 2.46 g/t
Pt Eq. (0.84 g/t 3E PGMs with 0.31% Ni and 0.30% Cu) and including 352.7
metres of 2.62 g/t Pt Eq. (0.93 g/t 3E PGMs with 0.31% Ni and 0.33% Cu)
for a total Pt Eq. grade thickness of 1,094 g/t-m
-- WS-165 intersected two intervals totaling 194.1 metres grading 2.99 g/t
Pt Eq. (1.24 g/t 3E PGMs with 0.26% Ni and 0.55% Cu) and including 60.7
metres of 4.24 g/t Pt Eq. (2.02 g/t 3E PGMs with 0.24% Ni and 0.99% Cu)
for a total Pt Eq. grade thickness of 581 g/t-m
-- WS-193 intersected two intervals totaling 410.7 metres grading 1.77 g/t
Pt Eq. (0.46 g/t 3E PGMs with 0.29% Ni and 0.10% Cu) and including 357.7
metres of 1.84 g/t Pt Eq. (0.49 g/t 3E PGMs with 0.30% Ni and 0.11% Cu)
for a total Pt Eq. grade thickness of 726 g/t-m
These results indicate the potential for the Far East Zone to be
laterally extensive with broad zones of significantly higher grades
than the average of the Wellgreen deposit. Several of these holes
contain Pt Eq. grade thickness values of 1,000 g/t-m, which are
some of the best intersections to date on the project.
Greg Johnson, Prophecy Platinum's President and Chief Executive
Officer, stated, "We are excited about the implications of these
drill holes and the potential to define a large block of new
mineralization within the existing pit model. We are also
encouraged with the presence of the wide zones of significantly
higher grade, such as in hole 165 which intersected 60.7 metres of
2.01 g/t 3E PGMs with 0.24% Ni and 0.99% Cu for a total platinum
equivalent grade of 4.24 g/t Pt Eq. In our current drilling, we are
testing the total width of this zone with a step out to the east
designed to intercept both the historic tabular Wellgreen deposit
and to drill into this Far East Zone to the north. Though the assay
results of this offset drill hole are pending, it has already
intercepted more than 750 metres of continuous ultramafic host rock
containing disseminated sulphide mineralization. In light of this
new interpretation, the Company is also reviewing and assessing
additional historic drilling several hundred metres east of the Far
East Zone and believes that these holes may have also intercepted
this new zone of mineralization."
Mr. Johnson continued, "We are also excited to report that in
our review of historical information, some of which has not
previously been published, we have noted areas of strongly enriched
rare platinum group metals ("PGMs"), rhodium (Rh), osmium (Os),
iridium (Ir) and ruthenium (Ru). These rare PGM zones occur within
and adjacent to high sulphide zones with elevated concentrations of
platinum, palladium and gold. These rare PGMs are not common in
magmatic PGM-Ni-Cu deposits, but these results are consistent with
historic mining data for the Wellgreen concentrates; a total of
171,652 tonnes were milled by Hudson Yukon Mining in 1972 and 1973
with grades based on smelter returns of 2.23% Ni, 1.39% Cu, 1,300
ppb Pt, 920 ppb Pd, 171 ppb Au, 400 ppb Rh, 420 ppb Ru, 250 ppb Ir,
200 ppb Os and 200 ppb Re. The presence of these rare and valuable
PGM metals has been shown to increase the total PGM content by 100%
to 200% in some sulphide-rich samples and by 10% to 15% in adjacent
and shoulder zones with high sulphide contents. Because of the
potential positive economic impact of these rare PGMs, additional
analyses of the full suite of PGMs in the higher sulfide intercepts
and intervals are being conducted by the Company."
Main Wellgreen Deposit and New Far East Zone Interpretation
The main Wellgreen resource area has been delineated into five
zones which show broad disseminated to high sulphide mineralization
contained within host ultramafic rocks. These five zones - the Far
West, West, Central, East and Far East Zones - cover an area of 2.5
kilometres in length with mineralization starting at surface and
extending, at the deepest known point, to at least 700 metres .
These zones form a continuous, moderately to steeply south dipping
tabular body of disseminated PGM, nickel and copper mineralization
that is typically 100-300 metres in width with some zones of over
500 metres of continuous mineralization grading in excess of 2 g/t
Pt Eq. The Far East Zone is at the eastern end of the deposit and
remains open to the west, north and east towards the Quill target,
which has a similar geochemical and geophysical signature to
Wellgreen.
An ongoing, comprehensive review of the Wellgreen project has
focused on compiling all historic information on the deposit back
to the 1950s. This review has resulted in the development of a new
understanding of the controls to the disseminated PGM, nickel and
copper mineralization. During the review, the technical team
focused on several areas of particularly wide and significantly
higher grade mineralization. The Far East Zone at the eastern end
of the main Wellgreen deposit is one of these areas and our new
interpretation indicates the potential for a large new zone of
mineralization which is distinctive from the main tabular Wellgreen
deposit.
Historically, drilling in the main Wellgreen deposit was stopped
upon entering the "footwall" sediments, which were assumed to be
the northern boundary to mineralization. Results from the review of
deeper drilling in the Far East Zone indicate the footwall sediment
package does not extend completely to depth, but rather exhibits a
wedge-like geometry. This suggests that this zone may extend
significantly toward the west as well as toward the east and that
there is potential for a broad area of additional mineralization
that was not previously recognized beneath the sediment package
toward the north. This new zone may connect with a second
mineralized ultramafic body called the North Arm that has only
limited historic drilling but that falls within the pit model.
As can be seen in the cross section and table below, the Far
East Zone exhibits exceptionally wide and continuous mineralization
with all four holes in the area exceeding 500 gram/tonne-metres of
Pt Eq. mineralization, and WS-154 and WS-160 exceeding 900
gram/tonne-metres. WS-160 and WS-165 are approximately 150 metres
apart and have different lithological and mineralization
characteristics compared with the typical mineralization in the
main Wellgreen tabular body, including significant enrichment of
copper and platinum, which could indicate this area is part of a
feeder zone or area which focused greater sulphide concentration
during emplacement. Data seems to indicate that grades in this Far
Eastern Zone area may be increasing with depth and that the
ultramafic body is open to significant further expansion.

WS-160 started in mineralization associated with the main
tabular Wellgreen deposit from surface, passed through the sediment
zone, and then intersected 353 metres of continuous higher grade
mineralization in the lower zone (see table and cross section
above). WS-165 exhibited a similar pattern at approximately the
same depth, though it did also intercept what is interpreted as a
narrow, tabular, post-mineral dike before passing into a higher
grade zone with 1% copper and 4-5 g/t Pt Eq. over 60 metres. This
lower intercept in WS-165 shows a broad zone of significant
enrichment of copper and platinum which may be amenable to
selective mining using bulk underground methods.
As can be seen in the section and the 3D geologic model, this
new area may connect the main Wellgreen deposit with the relatively
untested North Arm ultramafic body. The North Arm falls within the
current pit model but, due to a lack of modern drilling data, was
not included in the current Mineral Resource estimate. With the
current resampling effort and additional drilling the North Arm has
the potential of being reclassified from unclassified material into
a Resource designation which would add mineralized blocks to the
Wellgreen economic model that were previously modelled as waste
blocks.
The Far East Zone is significant since it indicates potential
for a considerable new zone of higher grade mineralization which
may connect the main Wellgreen deposit with zones to the east and
north. The new zone appears to open for at least 400 metres to the
west and it is fully open further east where only limited drilling
has been completed. It also suggests that the North Arm may be part
of a much larger ultramafic body than previously recognized giving
it greater potential for expansion.
Further exploratory work is planned in this new area over the
coming months to determine the extent of mineralization, its
orientation, grades, and potential for bulk mineability in the
first 5-10 years of mining. There are a number of broad zones of
higher grade material requiring follow up which the Company will
assess to determine if they can be scheduled for production, along
with other higher grade zones, early in the mine plan.
2013 Field Program Update
As indicated in our previous news releases, our 2013 field
program has the following key objectives:
-- Definition of higher-grade mineralization for scheduling in the first 5-
10 years of operations to improve existing positive project economics;
-- Key step-out drilling to offset higher-grade mineralized zones and bring
currently unclassified blocks that are within the previous pit model
into the mineral resource;
-- Conversion of a significant portion of the mineral resource from the
Inferred to the Measured and Indicated categories to increase overall
confidence in the mineral resource model; and
-- Testing of high priority targets adjacent to the main Wellgreen deposit
for the existence of new, higher-grade, bulk mineable mineralization.
Priority Drilling Targets
The Company identified and prioritized a series of drill hole
locations for the 2013 field program based on the above parameters.
The first of these drill holes was selected to significantly offset
and intercept wide zones of higher grade mineralization and to
demonstrate the predictability of the new 3D geologic model.
Drilling has been completed at the first of these locations,
which is a step out hole collared approximately 380 metres to the
south of WS-160 in the Far East Zone. This hole was designed to
test the extent of the main Wellgreen tabular body to the south and
to test the extent of the new Far East Zone at greater depth based
on our new interpretation from holes WS-160 and WS-165. The drill
hole was originally planned to extend 700 metres, but drilled to
over 800 metres due to the extent of mineralization.
The next priority target is a significant offset to the south of
WS-214 and WS-188 in the Central Zone. The Central Zone is one of
the thickest zones of higher grade mineralization with in excess of
500 metres of continuous mineralization at more than 2 g/t Pt Eq.
In the main tabular Wellgreen deposit in the Central Zone,
mineralization is open to the south and untested at depth.
In addition, the Company is drilling a series of shallow drill
hole targets in areas with potential for higher grade starter pits,
particularly in the Far West and West Zones. Five such drill holes
have been drilled this year as part of the 2013 field program, with
assay results pending.

Re-Logging and Sampling of Historic Drill Holes
The re-logging and sampling program of up to 12,000 metres of
historic drill holes initiated in June is approximately 66%
complete. The historic drill holes were previously only selectively
sampled for high-grade, massive sulphide zones amenable to an
underground mining scenario. Therefore, as much as 75% of the drill
core that can be considered in an open pit bulk mineable scenario
was never sampled. These historic holes are now being analyzed
across broad zones of disseminated sulphide mineralization for
platinum, palladium, rhodium and gold (4E) in addition to nickel,
copper, cobalt and trace elements. The analysis will include NI
43-101 quality control processes to allow these historic drill
holes to be utilized in the next Mineral Resource update and
updated 2014 PEA.

Quill and Burwash Targets
Prophecy Platinum continues to evaluate historic exploration
data from the Quill and Burwash areas, both of which have a
potential strike length of over 2 kilometres based on magnetic and
soil geochemical anomalies. The Company has identified a series of
high-priority targets in the Quill and Burwash areas, which are
outside of the current limits of the current mineral resource model
but demonstrate geomagnetic and surface geochemical signatures
which are similar to those found at the main Wellgreen deposit.
Initial results indicate the possibility that these sites may be
part of the same overall system, which exceeds 18 kilometres in
length.
Rare PGMs
During the compilation and review of drilling data collected on
the Wellgreen project for holes WS-160 and WS-165, several
additional assay certificates from Becquerel Labs of Mississauga,
Ontario were identified. These certificates contained Neutron
Activation (Method BQ-NAA-2) results from various drill hole pulps.
The pulps were analyzed for gold and 6E PGMs (Pt, Pd, Ir, Os, Rh
and Ru). Of particular importance in these results was the 10.2
metre interval from 440.74 to 450.95 metres. The interval is a zone
of semi-massive sulphides in clinopyroxenite followed immediately
by a zone of massive sulphides and exhibits a 17% to 212% upgrade
in PGMs, with an average increase of 70%. The adjacent drill
intervals above (18.9 metres) and below (12.0 metres) this section
were not similarly assayed, which could mean there may be the
potential to have increased PGM grades adjacent to these zones.
The Company will be focusing efforts on identifying the extent
of this zone and the possibility of finding similar zones within
the Wellgreen deposit. Concentrates that were historically mined
and produced at Wellgreen and sold to Sumitomo in the 1970s
reported significant recovery of rare PGMs along with platinum,
palladium, gold, nickel and copper. Anomalous concentrations of
rhodium appear to be a good proxy for zones of higher 6E PGMs. All
analyses going forward will include an analysis of rhodium with a
four acid digestion ICP-ES analysis (Code 7TD) through ACME Labs in
Vancouver.
Looking Forward
Prophecy Platinum is very pleased with the initial results of
its 2013 field program. The identification of the mineralized area
in the Far East Zone below the sediment wedge was an exciting
discovery and additional work will explore the orientation and
potential size of this area. The Company looks forward to reporting
results from our re-sampling and drilling programs in the coming
weeks and months, along with our next phase of metallurgical
optimization testwork.
Wellgreen is quickly becoming one of the most significant
undeveloped PGM deposits in the world in terms of width and
continuity of PGM mineralization. With typical mineralization
widths between 100 and 300 metres and in some areas beyond 500
metres the grade thickness values demonstrate an amenability to
open pit and underground bulk mining, both of which are important
considerations when comparing Wellgreen to well-known new South
African bulk mineable projects such as at Platreef and Waterberg.
Broader mineralization widths allow for lower cost, less labour
intensive mining methods. Wellgreen is located in a low political
risk, mining-friendly jurisdiction with direct access to existing
highways and port infrastructure.

(1) Wellgreen is a polymetallic deposit with mineralization that
includes the Platinum Group Metals (PGM's), nickel, copper and
cobalt. At current metal prices using anticipated metallurgical
recoveries for separate Ni and Cu concentrates, the net economic
contribution is anticipated to be largest for the 3E PGMs
(Pt+Pd+Au), followed by nickel and then by copper and cobalt. A
platinum equivalent value (Pt Eq) is intended to reflect total
metal equivalent content in platinum for all of the metals using
relative prices for each of the metals. Please see the detailed
footnotes below on Table 1 for the metal prices used for this
calculation.
