The Disco Zone Discovery was made in April 2008 by drilling. A 3D model of the Disco Zone Discovery was completed in 2008 to aid in the interpretation of the controls and potential volume of its mineralization. This modeling has confirmed to “open” areas in proximity to the Disco Zone both at depth and to the southeast of the zone as defined to date.
The 3D modeling has also confirmed the presence of a previously unknown structure that controls the mineralization and trends to the south-southwest direction. Historically, the Lynn Lake ore bodies were associated with a different, south-southeast trending structure. It is believed that this new structure is related to the historical structure and offers a similar exploration potential along its main trend. This main trend of the newly discovered controlling structure represents some of the highest potential for future discovery of near-surface mineralization.
The combined results of the 3D modeling and IP survey demonstrate the excellent exploration potential at Lynn Lake, as well as the potential for the Disco Zone to become an important and new resource.

Drilling-to-date at the Disco Zone has outlined a shallow, arcuate body with a total length of 100 meters and an average width of 16 meters. To date, the mineralization has been intersected to a depth of 274 meters. The Disco Zone remains open to the southwest and at depth.
Typical Lynn Lake orebodies have a surface expression of 80 by 20 meters (comparable to, or smaller than the Disco Zone). They commonly display similar arcuate morphologies and are long, pipe-like bodies. The average depth-to-length aspect ratio of the Lynn Lake orebodies is 8:1. Based on geological knowledge of the A-plug, the Disco Zone possesses many similarities to some of the larger orebodies historically mined at
Lynn Lake.

Prophecy has had an 'induced polarization' (IP) geophysical survey completed in and around its recently discovered Disco Zone on the Lynn Lake nickel mine property. In addition to characterizing the Disco Zone mineralization, the geophysical survey has highlighted 10 similar targets.

Prophecy has the complete 3D modeling of the Disco Zone to aid in the interpretation of the
controls and potential volume of the mineralization. This modeling has confirmed 'open-areas' in proximity to the Disco Zone both at depth and to the southeast of the zone as defined to date.
The combined results of the 3D modeling and IP survey demonstrate the excellent exploration
potential at Lynn Lake, as well as the potential for the Disco Zone to become an important new
resource. Prophecy intends to perform borehole IP and to identify drill targets for Q1 2010.
