· Notice Of Meeting Of Shareholders
Prize Mining Corporation ("Prize") (TSXV:PRZ), is pleased to announce that it has now completed approximately 895 metres of diamond drilling in 9 holes on its Atlin Gold Property, located in northwestern British Columbia. The drill program has now shut down for the holiday break and will be resuming in February 2006.
This current program included 3 drill holes on the previously untested Rock of Ages mineralized zone, and 6 holes on the Yellowjacket Zone located 1.5 kilometres to the northeast. Drilling on the Yellowjacket Zone included twinning of 3 existing drill holes for due diligence purposes and to improve core recoveries, and 3 holes which were put in as short step outs along strike from prior hole YJ03-01 to test for extensions of the very high grade gold mineralization returned from that hole. Hole YJ03-01 returned 5.56 metres of 513.5 g/t gold (see News Release dated February 22, 2004).
All drill core has now been logged and the samples shipped to ACME Laboratory Ltd. in Vancouver for analyses. Final assay results are expected in January 2006. Drilling will resume in February 2006 with the initial holes designed to expand the Yellowjacket Zone gold mineralization along strike and to depth. Linda Dandy, P.Geo. of P&L Geological Services is supervising the field program on the Atlin Gold Project and is the "Qualified Person" for the purpose of National Instrument 43-101.
