Prize Mining Completes 18 Drill Holes at Daylight

CALGARY, Nov. 16, 2017 /CNW/ - PRIZE MINING CORPORATION ("Prize" or the "Company") (TSXV:PRZ) (OTCQB: PRZFF) (MQSP:GR:FRANKFURT) is pleased to announce that it has completed its initial drilling program on the Daylight Property located near Nelson in southeastern British Columbia as announced on October 24^th, 2017.

A total of 18 diamond drill holes were completed totalling 2,694.74 meters from 11 drill pad locations. The drill core is currently being logged and split and the Company anticipates 1,700+ core samples to be assayed. To date holes 1 to 6 and 8,9 have been sent for assaying.

Feisal Somji, Prize's Chief Executive Officer, commented "We are excited to have completed our Daylight Property drill program and eagerly await our assay results. The Daylight claims have four historical producing mines which yielded grades as high as 37 g/t gold (B.C. Minfile 082FSW172).1"

Toughnut Project update

Permitting for the proposed Toughnut diamond drilling program is in its final stages of consultation. It is anticipated that drilling may commence on several high priority targets near the end of November.

As a 3^rd party contractor, Terralogic personnel maintained a rigorous and independent QA/QC program throughout the duration of the Daylight drilling and trenching program. Sample chain-of-custody was instituted with analysis being completed by Bureau Veritas, in Vancouver BC. Analytical packages utilized include a strong acid ICP analysis (MA250) and gold fire-assay analysis on a large 50g split (FA450). Gravimetric analysis (FA550) will be carried out on any over detection gold assays greater than 10 g/t.  Bureau Veritas is wholly independent of Prize Mining and TerraLogic and is accredited under CAN-P-4E (ISO/IEC 17025): General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration Laboratories ISO/IEC 17025-2005.

1. Historical mining took place in the early 1900s. Based on the Company's understanding of historical practices, it is likely that hand sorting of ore took place and that the actual grades varied.
