Prophecy Files Amended and Restated Financial Statements

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/20/10 -- Prophecy Resource Corp. ('Prophecy' or the 'Company') (TSX VENTURE: PCY)(OTCQX: PRPCF)(FRANKFURT: 1P2) has filed on SEDAR amended and restated unaudited interim financial statements and management's discussion & analysis ('MD&A') (collectively the 'Amended Documents') for the interim period ended June 30, 2010.

The Corporation is filing the Amended Documents following a review by the British Columbia Securities Commission ('BCSC') completed in conjunction with the Company's proposed short form prospectus offering (as announced December 2, 2010, December 3, 2010 and December 16, 2010).

The changes were made to rectify certain errors in reporting and allocations on the Company's balance sheet, including

--  certain non-cash items, such as future income tax liabilities and
    mineral properties acquisition through issuance common shares, were
    incorrectly including the statements of cash flows for the three and six
    months ended June 30, 2010.

--  due to a total of $473,203 expenditures incurred by Prophecy Holdings
    Inc., was incorrectly consolidated and included in the consolidated
    statements of operation. The restatement reduces the net loss for the
    three and six months ended June 30, 2010 by $473,203.

--  cash and cash equivalents as at June 30, 2010 were overstated by
    $2,700,000.

For the six months ended June 30, the Company reported a restated net loss of $2,040,952 compared to $2,514,155 as previously reported.
