VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Nov 24, 2016) - PROSPECTOR RESOURCES CORP. ("Prospector" or the "Company") (NEX:PRR.H) is pleased to announce today that further to its press release dated October 27, 2016, the Company has filed its technical report on the Kalzas Property, completed a non-brokered private placement (the "Financing") and reconstituted its Board of Directors and management, all as a part of a series of transactions resulting in the Company's reactivation and graduation to the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") as a Tier 2 mining issuer.

Financing

The Financing was completed for gross proceeds of $2,144,500. A total of 42,890,000 common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") were issued at a price of $0.05 per share.

In connection with obtaining final approval of the TSXV for the Financing, the Company received disinterested shareholder approval of the Financing and the creation of a new "Control Person" (as such term is defined under the policies of the TSXV) in the form of written consents obtained from holders of more than 51% of the currently issued and outstanding voting shares of the Company.

The Common Shares issued pursuant to the Financing are subject to a hold period that, in addition to the resale restrictions imposed under applicable securities laws, expires in two portions: (1) for 50% of a subscriber's purchased securities, on the date that is six months following the closing date of the Financing, and (2) for the remaining 50% of a subscriber's purchased securities, on the date that is 12 months following the closing date of the Financing.

The proceeds of the Financing will be used to settle certain of Prospector's current liabilities, to fund a $200,000 exploration drilling program on Prospector's Kalzas Property, to pursue asset acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. No finder's fees were paid on the proceeds of the Financing.

New Board and Management

Upon closing of the transactions, all current directors of Prospector have resigned and Alex Black, Klaus Zeitler and Daniel Kenney have been appointed to the board. Mr. Black will act as Chairman, CEO and President and Mr. Kenney will act as Corporate Secretary. Anthony Jackson will continue to act as CFO. For a detailed description of the biographies of the newly appointed directors and officers, please refer to the Company's press release dated October 27, 2016.
