The problem of prominences-corona relationship is relativelly old. Already in 1931 Lockyer [1] showed that there is a close relation between prominences distribution and the form of white-light corona. However, this problem is still debatable and poses a number of controversial questions. One of them is the question of the energy and mass exchange between prominences and the ambient corona. It is generally assumed that the mass balance exists between the corona and prominences, but unambiguous observational proofs for prominences-corona plasma exchange are very rare. There are little data [2-4], as well, that could be used to address the problem of slight plasma flows from prominences to the corona.
