look forward to securing regulatory and shareholder approval to our propsed
transaction. As stated previously, the proposed transaction represents a major
positive development for the shareholders of both companies. It will greatly
strengthen the treasury of the combined company and will thereby support an
aggressive exploration and drilling program at Kiyuk, where strong drill results
have only begun to test numerous well-defined targets occurring along a 24 km
strike length of gold-bearing strata in the Kiyuk Basin. Mr. Duncan further
stated, "As I have commented before, the transaction, if completed, will bring
together a strong exploration team from Smash with significant exploration
experience in northern Canada which, together with the continued geological
input from Dr. Quinton Hennigh and a combined expertise in permitting, should
enable the combined company to take the exploration and drilling at Kiyuk to the
next level of discovery." 


"We are pleased to have executed the definitive agreement for our proposed
transaction. The proposed amalgamation of Smash and Prosperity will bring
enhanced value to Smash shareholders by broadening our exposure with a second
gold exploration play that has already returned solid drill results," stated
Adrian Fleming, President of Smash Minerals."


Prosperity's Kiyuk Lake gold property in southern Nunavut is located 100km
northeast of the four corners of Saskatchewan, NWT, Manitoba and Nunavut. The
property consists of 50 claims covering an area of 430 km2. Gold showings were
first recognized in 1992. Newmont explored and drilled the property from 2006 to
2008 but the drilling was not successful. Quinton Hennigh brought the property
to Evolving Gold Corp. in 2009 and it was subsequently vended to Prosperity and
listed in February 2011. Prosperity's first drilling program in 2011 included 14
holes for a total of 2600 m's, which returned encouraging results from three
separate targets. At the Rusty Target hole 1 returned 157.6m at 1.7g/t Au from
the surface including 30.5m at 4.9g/t Au from 5.2m. At the Gold Point Target
hole 3 returned 63.6m at 2.84 g/t Au from 148.6m. Additional aggressive
exploration and drilling is planned to commence in March 2012.


Smash's Whiskey Project, located in Yukon's White Gold District, encompasses 846
km2 including the placer gold rich Black Hills and Barker Creeks. Smash executed
an extensive multi-phase, multi-disciplinary exploration program from May to
October 2011. Work conducted on the Whiskey Property included: property-scale
geological mapping and structural studies; prospect and local-scale mapping and
prospecting; collection of 1,819 grab rock samples; collection of 19,511 soil
samples including ridge-and-spur and grid soil samples; on-site XRF analysis of
all grid soil samples collected; a two-phase stream sediment sampling program
focusing on all catchment areas within the Whiskey Property to a maximum of 20
km2; airborne magnetic and radiometric geophysical survey covering the entire
property; mechanized trenching covering 2,500 line-metres over 83 trenches and
collection of 1,295 channel samples, including trench reclamation; and a diamond
drill program consisting of eight holes totalling 1,665.9 metres. The 2011
exploration program has confirmed the presence of gold and silver mineralization
in bedrock on the Property.


Smash anticipates a 2012 program of drill testing high priority targets located
within an interpreted structurally controlled hydrothermal system centered in
the north eastern portion of the Whiskey Property. Mid-summer season diamond
drilling should commence at the Highland Park, Stranahan's and Tullamore Dew
targets once sufficient surface trenching and detailed geological mapping have
been completed to allow for drill targeting. 


Adrian Fleming and Quinton Hennigh are Qualified Persons who have reviewed the
technical content of this press release for Smash and Prosperity respectively.
