Prosper Gold Corp. ("Prosper Gold" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:PGX) is
pleased to announce that drilling has commenced on the Star Porphyry Copper Gold
project (the "Property") in northwestern BC. Drilling will initially focus on
the Star discovery area. A second drill is planned for June to test the
Pyrrhotite Creek targets 4.5 km southwest of Star.


Phase 1 Drill Program - Star Targets

Phase 1 of the 2014 drill program will focus on the main Star discovery to
expand the mineralized zone. The nearby Star North & Star East targets will also
be drill tested. 


Previously released drill results: (See the Company's Oct.1 & Oct.29, 2013 news
releases)




--  DDH S024: 0.37 % Cu, 0.24 g/t Au over 312 m (Incl. 77 m @ 0.66 % Cu,
    0.55 g/t Au, 1.11 g/t Ag)  
--  DDH S025: 0.42 % Cu, 0.20 g/t Au over 269 m (Incl. 237 m @ 0.46 % Cu,
    0.22 g/t Au, 0.65 g/t Ag)  
--  DDH S026: 0.35 % Cu, 0.15 g/t Au over 263 m (Incl. 165 m @ 0.44 % Cu,
    0.20 g/t Au, 0.78 g/t Ag) 
--  DDH S027: 0.35 % Cu, 0.11 g/t Au over 334 m (Incl. 260 m @ 0.39 % Cu,
    0.12 g/t Au, 0.93 g/t Ag) 
--  DDH S028: 0.45 % Cu, 0.26 g/t Au over 144 m (Incl. 60 m @ 0.63 % Cu,
    0.30 g/t Au, 0.91 g/t Ag) 
--  DDH S029: 0.34 % Cu, 0.21 g/t Au over 252 m (Incl. 77 m @ 0.46 % Cu,
    0.27 g/t Au, 0.82 g/t Ag)



The first four holes are steps-outs from the drill holes shown above. The drill
will then move to the Star East and Star North targets respectively 750m east
and 950m northeast from the Star. Based on results the drill will be returned to
the main Star target to commence a Phase 2 drill program to define the resource.
If warranted a third drill could be mobilized to site.


Star Porphyry - Drill Hole Targeting (See www.ProsperGoldCorp.com for detailed
targeting diagrams)




A - To be collared 308m north of S-024 drilled in 2013 to test continuity of
known mineralization northward. Modelling based on chargeability, previous  
drill results, and copper-gold and silver-in-soil anomaly extension are     
strong in this direction.                                                   
B - Located approximately 350m southeast of S-024, will be drilled to the   
northwest. 3D modeling implies continuity of mineralization into this       
previously undrilled area.                                                  
C - To be collared in a trench located about 390m southwest of S-024 where  
strong mineralization (0.51% Cu and 0.4 g/t Au over 24m and 0.33%Cu over    
70m) occurs at surface. The drill hole will be oriented towards the         
northeast to test the known mineralized zone to depth.                      
D - The fourth hole will drill eastward from about 390m west of S-024 back  
toward known mineralization to test a magnetic high target.                 



Star East Target

One hole will drill the untested Star East target where a coincident
chargeability and copper- gold and silver-in-soil are known over an 800 by 500m
area. The drill hole, to be collared approximately 620m southeast of S-024, will
drill east-southeast into the chargeability and under the soil target. 


Star North Target

Star North is 950m northeast of the Star Porphyry discovery. The target area as
defined by chargeability covers a 500 by 300m area and is marked by a coincident
copper-gold and silver-in-soil target. 


Pyrrhotite Creek Target Area

Pyrrhotite Creek is approximately 4,500m southwest of the Star system. Two
porphyry targets occur about 1,200m apart. The first is an 300 by 200m area, as
defined by soil sampling, historical trenching and short hole drilling. The
second is an 800 by 250m coincident copper-gold-silver-in-soil geochemical
anomaly with coincident IP chargeability.


Target 1 was drilled in 1972 and returned grades of 146.3m @ 0.32% Cu, near
where a trench returned 31.7m of 0.65% Cu. There was no historical analysis of
gold from these sample sites. Target 2 has coincident copper-gold-silver-in-soil
with chargeability and has not been drilled. 


"Our 2014 Phase 1 drilling will build on historical results and is expected to
expand the mineralization," said Peter Bernier, President and CEO, "We are well
funded to carry out the plan outlined above and aim to have sufficient data to
build a resource." 


The Property is optioned from Firesteel Resources Inc. (for further details,
