Observations in H-alpha, soft X-ray, white light and radio wavelengths are used to track cool and hot material from limb de-occultation to the extent of six solar radii. The kinematics and thermodynamics of the internal material are determined, along with the overall mass and energy budget of the event. It is found that the majority of the mass and energy is linked with the coronal material, but at least 20% of the ejected mass originated as near-surface prominence material, leading to the conclusions that the upper part of the prominence was being heated to coronal temperatures as it rose through the corona. Evidence was found that a moving type IV burst, indicative of strong magnetic fields, was associated with the upper part of the prominence, and the observations are judged to be most consistent with magnetic propulsion models of coronal transients.
