PALM BEACH, Florida, November 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Precious Metals coverage - Gold and silver prices posted decent gains Wednesday, with gold reaching a three-week high. A power struggle in Saudi Arabia last weekend coupled with an attempted missile strike on Saudi Arabia from Iran-backed terrorists has stirred up a rising amount of uncertainty into the markets this week, which has prompted investors to generate a safe-haven demand for gold and silver in particular. Here in the U.S., there are rising doubts that the Fed will actually hike U.S. interest rates as much as policymakers think, leaving many analysts bullish on gold heading to the end of the year and into 2018. Active companies this week in the mining industry include: Prize Mining Corporation (TSX-V: PRZ) (OTC: PRZFF), IAMGOLD Corporation (NYSE: IAG) (TSX: IMG), Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd. (NYSE: NAK) (TSX: NDM), Kinross Gold Corporation (NYSE: KGC) (TSX: K), Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (NYSE:AEM) (TSX:AEM).

Prize Mining Corporation (TSX-V: PRZ.V) (OTCQB: PRZFF) (MQSP:GR:FRANKFURT) is pleased to provide a corporate update and project summary on its Kena Project located near Nelson in southeastern British Columbia. Prize acquired the Kena Project in April 2017 and concurrently completed an equity financing for proceeds of $6 million. The current Kena Project resource estimate is set out below and was calculated using a base-case cut-off grade of 0.3 grams per tonne gold.

•    Indicated mineral resources of 24.89 million tonnes at 0.6 grams per tonne Au for 481,000 ounces Au;
•    Inferred mineral resources of 85.79 million tonnes at 0.48 grams per tonne Au for 1,318,000 ounces Au.

The resource estimation used gold intercepts from 176 drill holes in the Gold Mountain, Kena Gold and high-grade zones of the Kena Project and was prepared according to CIM 2014 guidelines.  The Kena Project also has a copper porphyry target that remains untested by exploration.   Read this and more news for Prize Mining at:  http://www.marketnewsupdates.com/news/przff.html  

The Company's 1,550-hectare contiguous Daylight Property which is located on the northwest corner of Prize's Kena Project, has various high-grade gold showings and four historical mines.  This land package is referred to as the Daylight Property (see map link). https://www.prizemining.com/site/assets/files/1792/kena-daylight-tougnhut-map.jpg

With the intent of employing a district wide exploration approach, the Company acquired the Toughnut Property in June 2017. The 1,010-hectare Toughnut Property lies contiguous on the west side of Prize's Daylight Property. The Toughnut claims strategically cover over a 3.5-kilometre strike length of the Silver King shear structure, including most of the mineralized land between Prize's Daylight claim block and Prize's Sand claim block to the northwest. This was a strategic acquisition for Prize as it now controls what management believes to be the most significant part of the mineralized Silver King shear zone.
