Prosperity Goldfields Corp. Commences Spring Drill Program at Kiyuk Lake Project

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire - March 27, 2012) - Prosperity Goldfields Corp. (TSX VENTURE: PPG) ("Prosperity Goldfields" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its 100% controlled Kiyuk Gold Project in Nunavut.


Spring Drilling Program

On March 21st, 2012, Prosperity Goldfields commenced a Spring 2012 program of diamond core drilling at the Kiyuk Lake Project. The drill is currently positioned over the "Rusty" showing targeting the down-dip extension of gold mineralization previously identified during the Company's Summer 2011 drill program where hole RU11-001 returned an average gold grade of 1.7 g/t Au from the collar to the end of the hole at 157.6m, including 3.27 g/t Au over 52.4m starting at the surface (see news release dated September 15th, 2011).

A total of 3,000 metres is planned for the Spring Program scheduled to be completed in May 2012. The objectives of this Spring Program are to follow-up on encouraging results from the Summer 2011 drill program that included the following from the Rusty, Gold Point and Cobalt showings:

Target 	Hole 	From (m) 	Length (m) 	Gold (g/t)
Rusty 	RU11-001 	0.0 	157.6 	1.70
	including 	0.0 	52.4 	3.30
Gold Point 	GP11-003 	148.6 	63.6 	2.84
	including 	148.6 	38.6 	4.15
Cobalt 	CS11-002 	52.4 	32.1 	1.82
	including 	64.1 	17.3 	2.41

The Spring drill program will also test additional, as yet undrilled targets that display encouraging geochemical, geophysical and alteration characteristics.

"We are delighted to report that we have received our first core from the Spring drill program with the first shipment of core sample to be sent out Tuesday, March 27, 2012. The results from the Spring program will be used to further refine a Summer 2012 work program which will include soil geochemistry, geophysics, geologic mapping and additional diamond drilling. We expect to start the Summer program in June 2012" comments R. Bruce Duncan, CEO of Prosperity Goldfields. "With the significant support from the Prosperity Goldfields shareholders for the amalgamation with Smash Minerals coupled with the extensive exploration programs planned for this Spring and Summer at Kiyuk, this should be an exciting and rewarding year for the shareholders."


About the Kiyuk Gold Project

Gold at Kiyuk is hosted by a sequence of conglomerates and breccias occurring along an unconformity between two thick sedimentary units, the Hurwitz Supergroup and overlying Kiyuk Group. The Kiyuk sub-basin in which numerous gold showings occur, measures roughly 60 km NE-SW and 35 km NW-SE. Gold mineralization is associated with intense magnetite and albite replacement and displays variable geochemical associations with cobalt, nickel, arsenic and uranium. Gold Mineralization at Kiyuk is unusual, both in terms of host-rocks and style of alteration that is dominated by sodic minerals. Although Kiyuk shares some similarities with iron oxide copper-gold deposits, little to no copper has been observed in the system at Kiyuk. The objective of exploration at Kiyuk is to discover multiple deposits of near-surface, bulk mineable gold mineralization. Other bulk mineable gold deposits in Nunavut include Agnico Eagle's Meadowbank mine where gold is produced from open pit deposits with proven and probable reserves of approximately 34 million metric tonnes grading 3.18 grams per tonne gold (source: Agnico Eagle website).
