About Prodigy Gold: Prodigy Gold Inc. (PDG: TSX.V) is currently evaluating the development of the Magino mine gold project in Ontario as an open-pit mining opportunity with the potential for deeper, higher grade gold production. The Magino project contains Indicated gold resources of 5,809,000 ounces grading 0.89 gpt gold (203.0 million tonnes), and 300,000 ounces of Inferred gold resources grading 0.91 gpt gold (10.3 million tonnes) at a cut off grade of 0.35 gpt gold. Included within this resource estimate is a higher grade zone consisting of 5,033,000 ounces grading 1.06 gpt gold (147.7 million tonnes) of Indicated resource and 255,000 ounces of Inferred gold resources grading 1.16 gpt gold (6.8 million tonnes). Please see the Prodigy Gold press release dated August 20,

2012, for more details. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part of the mineral resource will be converted into mineral reserves.
A Prefeasibility Study for the proposed open pit mining project at Magino is scheduled for completion early in 2013. Bringing the Magino mine project through the feasibility process and towards production is a catalyst for growing Prodigy Gold and building substantial value for Prodigy shareholders: Today's Discovery, Tomorrow's Future.

All scientific and technical information for the Magino project has been reviewed and approved by Tom Pollock, P.Geo., Prodigy Gold's Vice

President - Exploration, who is a qualified person under the definitions established by National Instrument 43-101.
