four-month hold period.


The proceeds from the private placement will be used to fund the Company's
ongoing exploration and development at the Magino mine project and general
corporate purposes.

About Prodigy Gold: Prodigy Gold Incorporated (TSX VENTURE:PDG) is currently
evaluating the Magino mine project in Ontario as an open-pit mining opportunity
with the potential for deeper, higher grade gold production. The Magino mine
project contains Indicated gold resources of 1,924,200 ounces grading 1.16 gpt
gold (51.6M tonnes), and 587,100 ounces of Inferred gold resources grading 1.04
gpt gold (18.3M tonnes) (please see Prodigy press release dated February 28,
2011). The Company is producing a Preliminary Economic Analysis (PEA),
establishing the economic parameters of an open pit mining operation at Magino.
The PEA is expected to lead to a full feasibility study, projected for early
2012. Bringing the Magino Mine project through the feasibility process and
towards production, coupled with the exploration potential of our
Beardmore-Geraldton exploration properties, are the catalysts to growing Prodigy
Gold, building substantial value for Prodigy shareholders: Today's Discovery,
Tomorrow's Future.


The geological 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. Drill core at Magino is boxed, covered, and sealed at the drill rig and
moved to the Prodigy logging and sample preparation facilities by Prodigy
personnel. The core is then split down the centre using a typical table fed
circular rock saw normally at one metre intervals. One half of the core is sent
for assay to ALS Chemex, 2090 Riverside Dr., Timmins, ON, P4R 0A2, while the
other half is returned to the core box and stored at Prodigy's sampling facility
in a secure, fenced off, area. Prodigy QA/QC procedures include the regular use
of blanks, standards and duplicate samples in addition to sending 10% of the
samples off to a second lab for check assays. Samples assaying greater than 3.0
gpt gold are automatically re-assayed by the metallic screen method. Drill holes
are directed as much as possible perpendicular to the strike and dip of the
mineralization at Magino. As a rough estimate the true thickness of the above
intercepts is approximately 76%.
