中文简报 »WELLGREEN
Prophecy Platinum's 100% owned Wellgreen property is rich in platinum group metals (platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd) and rhodium Rh), nickel (Ni) and copper (Cu.) Conveniently located in the south west of Canada's mining-friendly Yukon Territory, the site is approximately 35 kilometres northwest of the airstrip at Burwash Landing, just 15 km from the Alaska Highway and 402 km from Alaska's Haines deep sea port. Prophecy Coal Corp. acquired 100% of the Wellgreen property following a September 21, 2010 merger with Northern Platinum, subsequently transferring full ownership to Prophecy Platinum on June 13, 2011.
Management is focussed on advancing the project, with most recent efforts centering around an underground drilling program initiated in January 2012 that is intended to further define the Wellgreen resource. A more comprehensive surface drilling operation will commence later in the spring. In addition, a high level scoping study by Wardrop Engineering is expected to be completed by early Q1-2012. Prophecy intends to utilize the results of the 2012 drill program to update the current resource estimate. Read more >>
Overview: Wellgreen East Zone
The 120 claim (2500 hectare) Wellgreen East Zone property is 100% owned by Prophecy Platinum Corp. The site is located immediately east of the larger Wellgreen project, and accessible by an 8km all-weather road connected to the Alaska Highway just 350km from Haines Alaska deep seaport. All areas of exploration interest on the property are served by a network of four-wheel-drive roads. The Wellgreen East Zone property overlies the east half of the Quill Creek Mafic-Ultramafic Complex, a 20 km long multiphase sill-like intrusion that attains a maximum thickness of over 1 km. The Complex hosts a number of nickel-copper-PGE occurrences. The most significant and well explored of these is the Wellgreen Mine which adjoins the Wellgreen East Zone property to the west.

Highlights:
- 289 million tonnes of inferred resource with grades 0.38% Ni, 0.35% Cu, 1.18 g/t PGM+Au and 14 million tonnes of indicated resource at 0.69% Ni, 0.62% Cu, 2.25 g/t PGM+Au
- Yukon is one of the most mining friendly jurisdictions
- Ideal location - Wellgreen is highly accessible to main roads, great infrastructure, electricity and water
- Exploration upside - Current strike length is 2.6km but geophysical anomaly extents additional 2.3kms with further exploration potential
- One of only a few deposits of pgm outside South Africa
- Presence of exotic pgm elements, including Rhodium, Iridium, Osmium and Ruthenium

Cautionary Note Regarding Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves
Readers should refer to the Company's current technical reports and other continuous disclosure documents filed by the Company available on Sedar at www.sedar.com for further information on the mineral resource estimates of the Company's projects, which are subject to the qualifications and notes set forth therein, as well as for additional information relating to the Company more generally. Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability. Inferred mineral resources have insufficient confidence to allow the meaningful application of technical and economic parameters or to enable an evaluation of economic viability suitable for public disclosure. Neither the Company nor readers can assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will be upgraded to indicated or measured mineral resource. Most projects at the inferred mineral resource stage do not ever achieve successful commercial production. Each stage of a project is contingent on the positive results of the previous stage and that there is a significant risk that the results may not support or justify moving to the next stage.
Quality Control and Quality Assurance
Prophecy Platinum executes a quality control program to ensure best practice in sampling and analysis. Samples are cut and split for assay with the remaining sample retained for reference. Blanks, Standard Reference Material (SRM), and duplicates were inserted into the sample stream every 20th sample. A duplicate sample is taken every 20th sample of core. The selected sample is sawn in half and then sawn in half again. The quartered core is then placed into two different sample bags with different sample numbers and sealed. The SRM material comes from Natural Resources Canada and Analytical Solutions Limited. These were inserted into the sample stream immediately after the second duplicate. The SRMs used are WMS-1a, WPR-1 and WGB-1. Sample Blanks are obtained from two sources; granodiorite from a local quarry and garden marble from hardware stores in Whitehorse, Yukon. A Blank sample is inserted into the sample stream after the SRM. Assayed samples are transported in sealed and secured bags for preparation at ALS Chemex Prep Lab located in Whitehorse, Yukon. Pulverized (pulp) samples are shipped for analysis to ALS Chemex Assay Laboratory in Vancouver, B.C. ALS Chemex is an ISO/IEC 17025:2005 accredited laboratory and registered under ISO 9001:2000.
Quality assurance and quality control are monitored using scatterplots, Thompson-Howarth plots and statistical analysis to ensure duplicates, blanks and standard data are reliable and indicate robustness of overall results. ALS Chemex quality-assurance procedures are also included in this process."
