Moneta Porcupine (TSX: ME) Investor Update

RE:RE:Price$/OZ
This stock is still excessively cheap, even after the current run.
New resources came outDecember 10th.
ME-PR-24-2020.pdf (monetaporcupine.com)
Now the stock price closed at 14 cents on Dec 9. So
$0.14 X (Shares count fully diluted) 365,400,000) = MCAP $51,156,000/(Previous resource) 2,063,500 = $23.52
So the cost was $23.52 per OZ
If we keep the current $23.52 oz number and apply it
to the new resource of 5,479,000
$23.52 X 5,479,000 = MCAP $128,852,560 /
(Shares count fully diluted) 365,400,000)=
Share Price $.35
So just to get to the same price per oz from before the new resource
was announced the price needs to start from $.35 just to be
even to the previous resource level.
If we use $50 per OZ = $0.75
OR
If we use $100 per OZ = $1.50
Any way you slice it, this is just starting to get going.
Enjoy the ride!

KL Gold sets sights on Timmins for regional office
‘We can see somewhere between 120 to 175 people working over there’

Tony Makuch, president and CEO of Kirkland Lake Gold, is seen here during a presentation at Northern College in Timmins in December 2019. Makuch was the keynote speaker this past week for the Timmins Chamber's State of Mining presentation. RICHA BHOSALE/The Daily Press , TD
Kirkland Lake Gold views Timmins as an integral part of the company’s future according to its president and chief executive officer Tony Makuch.
Makuch, a native of Timmins, has more than 30 years of experience as a mining engineer.
He joined KL Gold in July 2016. Before that, he was the CEO of Lake Shore Gold from 2008 until 2016, when it was acquired by Tahoe Resources.
This past week, he was the guest speaker for the latest edition of The State of Mining — a series of discussions hosted by the Timmins Chamber of Commerce over the video conferencing platform Zoom.
Makuch covered many topics throughout his presentation. He said the company is “industry leading” in terms of financial strength.
“We are the only gold company with no debt whatsoever on the balance sheet. Very clean company. Three very strong, profitable mines that we’re investing strongly in.”
KL Gold’s three operating mines are the Macassa Mine near Kirkland Lake, Detour Lake Mine near Cochrane, and the Fosterville Mine in southeastern Australia.
Makuch said there is much excitement about the company right now, and that they are continuing strong work in development and exploration.
“We’ve had a lot of success at Fosterville since 2016 to 2020; a lot of success at Macassa from 2016 to 2020. I think over the next few years, we’re really going to see how we can take Detour from something that nobody wanted to buy, nobody thought was any good and turn it into something that is really a cornerstone asset.”
Makuch referenced some “negative views” by some in the mining world on KL Gold’s acquisition of Detour Lake, which was completed in January, but stated he and his team are very confident in the future of that project.
Regarding how these projects could benefit Timmins, Makuch was asked by a Chamber member about KL Gold’s investment in the city, in particular a regional office.
“We want to take a lot of the jobs that were done in Toronto and move them closer to site,” said Makuch. “Certainly there are a lot of jobs that were happening at the site that we see we don’t always need them at site. They’d actually be better, more comfortable, management and such, at a central location.
“Timmins fits for us for a number of reasons. It is the regional centre. You have a lot of services, especially air services in Timmins, so the logistics of bringing people in and out helps. We’re looking at it from that perspective.”
Makuch talked about running Detour Lake differently, and that they genuinely want to grow the local and regional economy as much as possible.
“We’re trying to recruit from Northeastern Ontario, from the region, as much as possible, as opposed to across Canada.”
Another exciting development mentioned by Makuch was the goal of building an airstrip near the Detour Lake site.
“We want to start flying people in and out to the mine site, as opposed to busing. Combined travel time to the workplace currently sits around 3½ hours. By the time people show up at the Cochrane bus terminal and get bused up to site, it’s a significant amount of time. We’re trying to improve the logistics on that. Trying to be more centralized,” he said.
“People come to work at Detour; they’re already going to be 14 days away from home. Then I’m asking you to take a half a day, or a day, to get to work, and then a half a day, or a day, to get home. I think that’s not really proper.”
Makuch made an interesting point about the overall picture for the average worker, as it relates to home and family life.
“Work is a necessary evil that we have to do, to do what we really want to do.”
He then elaborated on the plans for the regional office in Timmins.
“The concept is, there’s a lot of our G&A staff (general and administrative), payroll, human resources, benefits, management, engineering, technical services, even our exploration group, are sort of working in a variety of different areas.”
The idea is for the company to consolidate those jobs into one area, and felt Timmins would be the right fit.
“We had satellite offices in a few areas in the region, we had some people in Kirkland Lake travelling back and forth from Timmins, or flying in from Toronto, we had people up at Detour and in Cochrane,” he said.
“Our goal is to build a regional office in Timmins. We need that continuity in management.”
In the meantime, they have been renting several smaller office spaces throughout the city and region, including one on Birch Street South.
Residents shouldn’t expect to see a shiny downtown office building, however.
“We’ve purchased a piece of land we want to build on at the corner of Highway 655 and Laforest Road. It’s very central for us. Logistically, it’s not far from the airport, and it’s on direct road access through to Cochrane. That’s the goal.”
When and if that office does come to fruition, it will be a big boost for the city, he said.
“We can see somewhere between 120 to 175 people working over there,” said Makuch.
“We want to build the region, and we want to grow here and encourage people to come.”

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. -
October 22, 2020) -
Moneta Porcupine Mines Inc. (TSX: ME) (OTC Pink: MPUCF) (FSE: MOP) ("Moneta" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the filing of the technical report covering the Preliminary Economic Assessment "PEA" study on the South West deposit located in the Golden Highway Project, 110 km east of Timmins, Ontario.
"We are pleased to have filed the Technical Report which supports the positive results from the preliminary economic assessment of the South West deposit and its robust project economics including an NPV5% of C$236 million and IRR of 30% at US$1,500 ounce gold," commented Moneta CEO, Gary O'Connor.
"The PEA study assumed underground extraction at only our South West deposit and has shown the potential to produce up to 85,700 ounces per annum at a cash cost of US$590 per ounce, with low initial capital of C$144 million repaid over 3.4 years with annual after tax cash flow of C$49 million.
The excellent economics are afforded by the project's location in Canada's most prolific gold mining camp, Timmins Ontario, with extensive existing infrastructure and experienced and available services and workforce.
We are now focussing on expanding the adjacent deposits and discovering new zones of gold mineralization with the start of our new 20,000 m drill program designed to continue to add value to the Golden Highway Project with a growing resource base.
In addition to following up the three new discoveries from earlier this year, Moneta is currently updating the Windjammer South, 55 and new Westway resource estimates, expected to be released before the end of 2020."
The Technical Report dated October 21, 2020 was prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 standards for Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and has been filed on both SEDAR and the Company's website ( www.monetaporcupine.com ) and is now available for review.

South West Deposit PEA Returns Positive Economics on Both Stand-Alone and Toll Milling Scenarios
This morning, Moneta released a PEA (Exhibits 1-4) for the South West deposit, part of its Golden Highway project in Timmins, Ontario. A conference call will be held tomorrow at 10:30am ET; dial-in: 343.761.2596.
Highlights
• Works as Stand-Alone Mine: The base case models a 1,750tpd processing plant (94% recovery) that will ramp up (over two years) production in the UG mine to ~86Koz pa (by year 5; average 76Koz pa @ 3.9g/t diluted LOM). The initial capex on the 11 year mine is $144M (includes 15% contingency). The average long-hole stoping mining width is projected to be 8m (minimum 3m). The ore will be brought to surface via a ramp that’ll use 30t trucks. Costs are expected to be around $90/t and during the LOM the average AISC is forecasted at US$747/oz. Using a $1,500/oz Au price the PEA returned a NPV5% of $236M and ~30% IRR.
• Works as a Toll Milling Mine: The alternate scenario would be a quick, low capex operation whereby ore is trucked to an existing plant in the area. In this option the company would incur no processing plant and tailings facility costs and permitting would be a breeze. The toll milling options assumed lower recoveries at 92%, removing the cheaper gravity circuit from the plan. The production profile is similar (average 74Koz pa over the 11 year LOM) but operating costs would be higher at $119/t and US$938 AISC. However, with the lower upfront capex at $65M the IRR improves to ~44% (NPV5%: $197M).
• Growing Resource Presents Upside: The PEA used a lower cut-off at 2.6g/t (from 3.0g/t) from the previously stated South West resource. This increased the size of the total indicated and inferred South West resource by 22% to 1.8Moz (from ~1.5Moz). We note, this PEA was based on where the majority of drilling has been so far, the South West deposit and is more than enough to get started. Satellite deposits could offer additional upside in the future.
• Surrounded by Operating Mines/Mills: Toll milling could occur at any of the existing mills in the area including Holt Holloway, Black Fox, Hoyle Pond, Hollinger, Timmins West, and Bell Creek. Kirkland Lake’s (KL-T, Not Rated) and Newmont’s (NEM-N, Not Rated) recent formation of a strategic alliance on exploration in the area also bodes well for the camp and Moneta.
Valuation – Cheap on Existing Resource
Our $0.35/share price target is based on an in-situ multiple (~US$50/oz Au or ~3% of our long-term gold price) on the 1.7Moz Golden Highway resource.
Bottom Line – Build it or Toll It, Either Way Works
The resource growth, stock valuation, and gold price will make the decision in the next year or so if industry players don’t act first. With a desirable location in an existing camp with many underutilized mills the existing resource alone renders Moneta undervalued. We maintain our Buy recommendation and $0.35/share target price.

Kirkland Lake Gold views Timmins as an integral part of the company’s future according to its president and chief executive officer Tony Makuch.
Makuch, a native of Timmins, has more than 30 years of experience as a mining engineer.
He joined KL Gold in July 2016. Before that, he was the CEO of Lake Shore Gold from 2008 until 2016, when it was acquired by Tahoe Resources.

“We are the only gold company with no debt whatsoever on the balance sheet. Very clean company. Three very strong, profitable mines that we’re investing strongly in.”
KL Gold’s three operating mines are the Macassa Mine near Kirkland Lake, Detour Lake Mine near Cochrane, and the Fosterville Mine in southeastern Australia.
Makuch said there is much excitement about the company right now, and that they are continuing strong work in development and exploration.
“We’ve had a lot of success at Fosterville since 2016 to 2020; a lot of success at Macassa from 2016 to 2020. I think over the next few years, we’re really going to see how we can take Detour from something that nobody wanted to buy, nobody thought was any good and turn it into something that is really a cornerstone asset.”

About Moneta
The Company holds a 100% interest in 6 core gold projects strategically located
along the Destor-Porcupine Fault Zone in the Timmins Gold Camp with
over 85 million ounces of past gold production.
The main Golden Highway Project covers 12 km of prospective ground along
the DPFZ of which 2 km hosts the current 43-101 mineral resource estimate
comprised of an indicated resource of 676,900 ounces gold contained
within 5.11 Mt @ 4.12 g/t Au and a total of 1,386,600 ounces gold
contained within 10.78 Mt @ 4.00 g/t Au in the inferred category
at a 2.60 g/t Au at South West and 3.00 g/t Au cut-off for the other deposits.
A PEA study completed on the South West Deposit, one of 6 deposits located
on the Golden Highway project, highlighted an 11-year mine life with an
after-tax NPV5% of C$236MM, IRR of 30% and a 3.4 year payback,
generating C$371MM LOM after-tax free cash flow.

South West Deposit PEA Returns Positive Economics on Both Stand-Alone and Toll Milling Scenarios
This morning, Moneta released a PEA (Exhibits 1-4) for the South West deposit, part of its Golden Highway project in Timmins, Ontario. A conference call will be held tomorrow at 10:30am ET; dial-in: 343.761.2596.
Highlights
• Works as Stand-Alone Mine: The base case models a 1,750tpd processing plant (94% recovery) that will ramp up (over two years) production in the UG mine to ~86Koz pa (by year 5; average 76Koz pa @ 3.9g/t diluted LOM). The initial capex on the 11 year mine is $144M (includes 15% contingency). The average long-hole stoping mining width is projected to be 8m (minimum 3m). The ore will be brought to surface via a ramp that’ll use 30t trucks. Costs are expected to be around $90/t and during the LOM the average AISC is forecasted at US$747/oz. Using a $1,500/oz Au price the PEA returned a NPV5% of $236M and ~30% IRR.
• Works as a Toll Milling Mine: The alternate scenario would be a quick, low capex operation whereby ore is trucked to an existing plant in the area. In this option the company would incur no processing plant and tailings facility costs and permitting would be a breeze. The toll milling options assumed lower recoveries at 92%, removing the cheaper gravity circuit from the plan. The production profile is similar (average 74Koz pa over the 11 year LOM) but operating costs would be higher at $119/t and US$938 AISC. However, with the lower upfront capex at $65M the IRR improves to ~44% (NPV5%: $197M).
• Growing Resource Presents Upside: The PEA used a lower cut-off at 2.6g/t (from 3.0g/t) from the previously stated South West resource. This increased the size of the total indicated and inferred South West resource by 22% to 1.8Moz (from ~1.5Moz). We note, this PEA was based on where the majority of drilling has been so far, the South West deposit and is more than enough to get started. Satellite deposits could offer additional upside in the future.
• Surrounded by Operating Mines/Mills: Toll milling could occur at any of the existing mills in the area including Holt Holloway, Black Fox, Hoyle Pond, Hollinger, Timmins West, and Bell Creek. Kirkland Lake’s (KL-T, Not Rated) and Newmont’s (NEM-N, Not Rated) recent formation of a strategic alliance on exploration in the area also bodes well for the camp and Moneta.
Valuation – Cheap on Existing Resource
Our $0.35/share price target is based on an in-situ multiple (~US$50/oz Au or ~3% of our long-term gold price) on the 1.7Moz Golden Highway resource.
Bottom Line – Build it or Toll It, Either Way Works
The resource growth, stock valuation, and gold price will make the decision in the next year or so if industry players don’t act first. With a desirable location in an existing camp with many underutilized mills the existing resource alone renders Moneta undervalued. We maintain our Buy recommendation and $0.35/share target price.

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. -
October 22, 2020) -
Moneta Porcupine Mines Inc. (TSX: ME) (OTC Pink: MPUCF) (FSE: MOP) ("Moneta" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the filing of the technical report covering the Preliminary Economic Assessment "PEA" study on the South West deposit located in the Golden Highway Project, 110 km east of Timmins, Ontario.
"We are pleased to have filed the Technical Report which supports the positive results from the preliminary economic assessment of the South West deposit and its robust project economics including an NPV5% of C$236 million and IRR of 30% at US$1,500 ounce gold," commented Moneta CEO, Gary O'Connor.
"The PEA study assumed underground extraction at only our South West deposit and has shown the potential to produce up to 85,700 ounces per annum at a cash cost of US$590 per ounce, with low initial capital of C$144 million repaid over 3.4 years with annual after tax cash flow of C$49 million.
The excellent economics are afforded by the project's location in Canada's most prolific gold mining camp, Timmins Ontario, with extensive existing infrastructure and experienced and available services and workforce.
We are now focussing on expanding the adjacent deposits and discovering new zones of gold mineralization with the start of our new 20,000 m drill program designed to continue to add value to the Golden Highway Project with a growing resource base.
In addition to following up the three new discoveries from earlier this year, Moneta is currently updating the Windjammer South, 55 and new Westway resource estimates, expected to be released before the end of 2020."
The Technical Report dated October 21, 2020 was prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 standards for Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and has been filed on both SEDAR and the Company's website ( www.monetaporcupine.com ) and is now available for review.

South West Deposit PEA Returns Positive Economics on Both Stand-Alone and Toll Milling Scenarios
This morning, Moneta released a PEA (Exhibits 1-4) for the South West deposit, part of its Golden Highway project in Timmins, Ontario. A conference call will be held tomorrow at 10:30am ET; dial-in: 343.761.2596.
Highlights
• Works as Stand-Alone Mine: The base case models a 1,750tpd processing plant (94% recovery) that will ramp up (over two years) production in the UG mine to ~86Koz pa (by year 5; average 76Koz pa @ 3.9g/t diluted LOM). The initial capex on the 11 year mine is $144M (includes 15% contingency). The average long-hole stoping mining width is projected to be 8m (minimum 3m). The ore will be brought to surface via a ramp that’ll use 30t trucks. Costs are expected to be around $90/t and during the LOM the average AISC is forecasted at US$747/oz. Using a $1,500/oz Au price the PEA returned a NPV5% of $236M and ~30% IRR.
• Works as a Toll Milling Mine: The alternate scenario would be a quick, low capex operation whereby ore is trucked to an existing plant in the area. In this option the company would incur no processing plant and tailings facility costs and permitting would be a breeze. The toll milling options assumed lower recoveries at 92%, removing the cheaper gravity circuit from the plan. The production profile is similar (average 74Koz pa over the 11 year LOM) but operating costs would be higher at $119/t and US$938 AISC. However, with the lower upfront capex at $65M the IRR improves to ~44% (NPV5%: $197M).
• Growing Resource Presents Upside: The PEA used a lower cut-off at 2.6g/t (from 3.0g/t) from the previously stated South West resource. This increased the size of the total indicated and inferred South West resource by 22% to 1.8Moz (from ~1.5Moz). We note, this PEA was based on where the majority of drilling has been so far, the South West deposit and is more than enough to get started. Satellite deposits could offer additional upside in the future.
• Surrounded by Operating Mines/Mills: Toll milling could occur at any of the existing mills in the area including Holt Holloway, Black Fox, Hoyle Pond, Hollinger, Timmins West, and Bell Creek. Kirkland Lake’s (KL-T, Not Rated) and Newmont’s (NEM-N, Not Rated) recent formation of a strategic alliance on exploration in the area also bodes well for the camp and Moneta.
Valuation – Cheap on Existing Resource
Our $0.35/share price target is based on an in-situ multiple (~US$50/oz Au or ~3% of our long-term gold price) on the 1.7Moz Golden Highway resource.
Bottom Line – Build it or Toll It, Either Way Works
The resource growth, stock valuation, and gold price will make the decision in the next year or so if industry players don’t act first. With a desirable location in an existing camp with many underutilized mills the existing resource alone renders Moneta undervalued. We maintain our Buy recommendation and $0.35/share target price.

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. -
October 22, 2020) -
Moneta Porcupine Mines Inc. (TSX: ME) (OTC Pink: MPUCF) (FSE: MOP) ("Moneta" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the filing of the technical report covering the Preliminary Economic Assessment "PEA" study on the South West deposit located in the Golden Highway Project, 110 km east of Timmins, Ontario.
"We are pleased to have filed the Technical Report which supports the positive results from the preliminary economic assessment of the South West deposit and its robust project economics including an NPV5% of C$236 million and IRR of 30% at US$1,500 ounce gold," commented Moneta CEO, Gary O'Connor.
"The PEA study assumed underground extraction at only our South West deposit and has shown the potential to produce up to 85,700 ounces per annum at a cash cost of US$590 per ounce, with low initial capital of C$144 million repaid over 3.4 years with annual after tax cash flow of C$49 million.
The excellent economics are afforded by the project's location in Canada's most prolific gold mining camp, Timmins Ontario, with extensive existing infrastructure and experienced and available services and workforce.
We are now focussing on expanding the adjacent deposits and discovering new zones of gold mineralization with the start of our new 20,000 m drill program designed to continue to add value to the Golden Highway Project with a growing resource base.
In addition to following up the three new discoveries from earlier this year, Moneta is currently updating the Windjammer South, 55 and new Westway resource estimates, expected to be released before the end of 2020."
The Technical Report dated October 21, 2020 was prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 standards for Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and has been filed on both SEDAR and the Company's website ( www.monetaporcupine.com ) and is now available for review.
The Report was prepared by Mr. B. Terrence Hennessey, P.Geo., Mr. Richard M. Gowans, P.Eng., Mr. Barnard Foo, P.Eng., Mr. Christopher Jacobs, MIMMM, Mr. David Makepeace, P.Eng., and Mr. Nigel Fung, P.Eng., of Micon International Ltd. of Toronto, Canada, who are considered "Qualified Persons" under NI 43-101.
The new technical report covers and supports the technical and scientific disclosure as contained in the new PEA study reported in Moneta's press release dated September 09, 2020 entitled "Moneta announces positive results from Preliminary Economic Assessment study on South West Deposit."

Gold Debate: Is A New Gold Standard Coming? (Steve Forbes) -
August 23, 2020
bigone thank you, RE: This sounds so sweet well said, The Golden Highway
Project is only one of six Moneta Porcupine Mines Inc (TSX:ME)
Projects Overview
Moneta Porcupine Mines Inc. (“Moneta”) is a gold exploration company
which holds a 100% interest in 6 core gold projects and
a 50% JV with Kirkland Lake Gold strategically located on or
along the Destor Porcupine Fault Zone corridor (“Destor”),
one of the key mineralized structures in the Abitibi Greenstone belt
in Ontario, with excellent infrastructure including access roads,
water, electricity, and mills.
Most gold mineralization in the region
is associated with the Destor, including significant resources and
producing mines now operated by
Porcupine Gold Mines (Newmont-Goldcorp) and several others such as
McEwen Mining, Pan American Silver, Osisko Mining and Kirkland Lake
Gold.
The Golden Highway Camp has experienced rapid advancement of
gold resources by Moneta and others including
Osisko Mining reflecting the strong regional gold potential.
The Porcupine Camp and Golden Highway Camp
(herein collectively referred to as “Timmins Camp“) is one of
the most prolific gold-producing areas in
the world with over 80 million ounces of gold produced to date.
Moneta’s land position covers 618 km2 and is one of the largest
after the three main gold producers in the Timmins Camp, and
includes the highly prospective
Golden Highway Project which covers 12 kilometres of a
volcanic/sedimentary belt and contains four branches of the Destor.
The Golden Highway Project hosts a gold NI 43-101 Resource Estimate
(November 2019) of 556,500 ounces indicated
(3.8Mt at 4.53 g/t Au) plus
1,174,000 ounces inferred (8.5 Mt at 4.31 g/t Au).
The property covers over 200 square kilometres and is adequate in size
to support milling infrastructure, however, six existing mills are
within trucking distance and have excess capacity for toll milling.
Indicated resources increased 58% in 2019 and inferred resources
increased by 40% during the same period.
The Timmins Camp has first rate infrastructure with excellent off
highway access via an extensive network of logging and drilling roads.
Communications and power are available along Highway 101 and
cell phone coverage extends to the property.
A skilled labour force for mining and exploration is available in
Matheson, Kirkland Lake and Timmins.
Timmins and Kirkland Lake are also major supply and
service centers for the mining industry.
The Company is leveraged to gold exploration, with limited overhead and
fixed costs and one of the highest ratios of dollars
to drilling of any junior explorer.
It is operated by a strong technical and management team which
maintains a low-cost Timmins-based exploration operation with its own
field office, rolling stock and equipment, and drill core logging and
core storage facility (core shack).
Moneta was incorporated pursuant to the laws of the Province of Ontario
on October 14, 1910 and its common shares was one of the 1st
gold producers trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX“)
under the symbol ME, on the United States OTC market under
the symbol MPUCF, and the Xetra, and Frankfurt Stock Exchange under
the symbol MOP.
The company is a former gold producer but has no properties currently
in production.
Click to enlarge
Moneta’s recent primary gold exploration and resource development focus
has been the Golden Highway Project centred in Michaud Township
100 km east of Timmins, Ontario along Highway 101,
a major all-season route.
The Golden Highway Project captures 12 kms of
the Destor Porcupine Fault Zone Corridor,
one of the most prolific Archean gold-bearing
structures in the world.
The project currently hosts a NI 43-101 resource,
spanning only 4 km of the corridor and found primarily within
sedimentary host rocks along a southern splay of the Destor.
Resource growth potential exists along the remaining 8 km of largely
untested strike length along the Destor in contact with
ultramafic units, where limited historical drilling has already
confirmed gold mineralization.
The main unconformity which occurs as the mafic volcanic-sediment
contact also remains largely untested.
Moneta also has a 50% stake in the Garrison JV with
Kirkland Lake Gold in the Golden Highway Camp.
Moneta continues to maintain a large land holding in
Porcupine Gold Camp which includes the gold properties of
North Tisdale, Nighthawk Lake, Kayorum, DeSantis and Denton.
Additional properties with strategic value are
historical base metal projects and include
Loveland Nickel (Ni), Kamiskotia (Cu/Zn), and Fripp (Cu).

• Surrounded by Operating Mines/Mills: Toll milling could occur at any of the existing mills in the area including Holt Holloway, Black Fox, Hoyle Pond, Hollinger, Timmins West, and Bell Creek. Kirkland Lake’s (KL-T, Not Rated) and Newmont’s (NEM-N, Not Rated) recent formation of a strategic alliance on exploration in the area also bodes well for the camp and Moneta.
Valuation – Cheap on Existing Resource
Our $0.35/share price target is based on an in-situ multiple (~US$50/oz Au or ~3% of our long-term gold price) on the 1.7Moz Golden Highway resource.
Bottom Line – Build it or Toll It, Either Way Works
The resource growth, stock valuation, and gold price will make the decision in the next year or so if industry players don’t act first. With a desirable location in an existing camp with many underutilized mills the existing resource alone renders Moneta undervalued. We maintain our Buy recommendation and $0.35/share target price.

South West Deposit PEA Returns Positive Economics on Both Stand-Alone and Toll Milling Scenarios
This morning, Moneta released a PEA (Exhibits 1-4) for the South West deposit, part of its Golden Highway project in Timmins, Ontario. A conference call will be held tomorrow at 10:30am ET; dial-in: 343.761.2596.
Highlights
• Works as Stand-Alone Mine: The base case models a 1,750tpd processing plant (94% recovery) that will ramp up (over two years) production in the UG mine to ~86Koz pa (by year 5; average 76Koz pa @ 3.9g/t diluted LOM). The initial capex on the 11 year mine is $144M (includes 15% contingency). The average long-hole stoping mining width is projected to be 8m (minimum 3m). The ore will be brought to surface via a ramp that’ll use 30t trucks. Costs are expected to be around $90/t and during the LOM the average AISC is forecasted at US$747/oz. Using a $1,500/oz Au price the PEA returned a NPV5% of $236M and ~30% IRR.
• Works as a Toll Milling Mine: The alternate scenario would be a quick, low capex operation whereby ore is trucked to an existing plant in the area. In this option the company would incur no processing plant and tailings facility costs and permitting would be a breeze. The toll milling options assumed lower recoveries at 92%, removing the cheaper gravity circuit from the plan. The production profile is similar (average 74Koz pa over the 11 year LOM) but operating costs would be higher at $119/t and US$938 AISC. However, with the lower upfront capex at $65M the IRR improves to ~44% (NPV5%: $197M).
• Growing Resource Presents Upside: The PEA used a lower cut-off at 2.6g/t (from 3.0g/t) from the previously stated South West resource. This increased the size of the total indicated and inferred South West resource by 22% to 1.8Moz (from ~1.5Moz). We note, this PEA was based on where the majority of drilling has been so far, the South West deposit and is more than enough to get started. Satellite deposits could offer additional upside in the future.
• Surrounded by Operating Mines/Mills: Toll milling could occur at any of the existing mills in the area including Holt Holloway, Black Fox, Hoyle Pond, Hollinger, Timmins West, and Bell Creek. Kirkland Lake’s (KL-T, Not Rated) and Newmont’s (NEM-N, Not Rated) recent formation of a strategic alliance on exploration in the area also bodes well for the camp and Moneta.

Moneta Announces Positive Results from Preliminary Economic Assessment Study on South West Deposit
After tax C$236 million NPV5% and 30% IRR at US$1,500 per ounce Gold
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 9, 2020) -
Moneta Porcupine Mines Inc. (TSX: ME) (OTC Pink: MPUCF) (FSE: MOP) ("Moneta" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the excellent results from the Company's Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") of the South West deposit at its 100% owned Golden Highway Project located in Timmins, Ontario. The PEA study demonstrates robust economics and is based on a stand-alone, owner-operated mine and mill with an 11-year mine life which produced an after-tax Net Present Value ("NPV") of C$236 million using a 5% discount rate. The financial model shows an after-tax Internal Rate of Return ("IRR") of 30% and a capital payback period of 3.4 years. All amounts are shown in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated.
South West Deposit PEA Highlights
https://stockhouse.com/companies/bullboard?symbol=t.me&postid=31531516
After Tax Net Present Value at a 5% discount rate ("NPV5%") of C$236 million and after-tax Internal Rate of Return ("IRR") of 30% at US$1,500/oz gold and exchange rate of US$0.77/C$
C$371 million after tax cash flow over the life of mine
75,700 ounces annual production during full production for 719,000 ounces total gold production
Peak gold production of 85,700 ounces per annum
Cash cost of US$590 per ounce and all in sustaining cost of US$747 per ounce gold
Highly leveraged to the gold price with after tax NPV5% of C$423 million and 47% IRR at US$1,900 per ounce gold
Initial capital of C$144 million, and sustaining capital of C$136 million
After-tax discounted pay-back of 3.4 years, with an 11 year mine life
Attractive alternative Toll Milling development option with after-tax NPV5% of C$197 million and IRR of 44% at US$1,500 gold with initial capital costs of C$65 million
Potential to expand production from additional deposits located on the Golden Highway Project
"We are extremely pleased with the positive results from this preliminary economic assessment of the South West deposit and its robust project economics including an NPV of C$236 million and IRR of 30% at US$1,500 ounce gold and a 5% discount rate," commented Gary O'Connor, CEO. "The PEA study which assumed underground extraction of our South West deposit only has shown the potential to produce up to 85,700 ounces per annum for a total of 719,000 ounces life of mine at an attractive cash cost of US$590 per ounce, with low initial capital of C$144 million repaid over 3.4 years. The excellent economics are afforded by the project's location in Canada's most prolific gold mining camp, Timmins Ontario, with extensive existing infrastructure and experienced and available services and workforce. The South West deposit would generate C$371 million after tax cash flow over the life of mine. We will now be able to focus on expanding the adjacent deposits and discovering new zones of gold mineralization to continue to add value to the Golden Highway Project with a growing resource base. In addition to our base case development plan, we also have a highly attractive development option which involves minor initial capital expenditure, shorter development time line and negates the need to permit and build our own processing plant and associated infrastructure assuming Toll Milling of the ore."
Mr. O'Connor commented, "In addition to the highly successful PEA on our South West deposit, we have 5 additional gold deposits on the Golden Highway project and have discovered three new mineralized areas, Westaway, Halfway and South Basin in 2020, of which a maiden resource for Westaway is planned for this year. During 2020 we have doubled the footprint of continuous mineralization from 2 kilometres to 4 kilometres at Golden Highway. In addition, we have discovered regional scale potential with gold mineralization discovered over 1.2 km on the southern margins of the South Basin with a potential strike length of 12 km."

The average annual mining rate and gold production is calculated for years 3 to 11 of mining when mining is at full production rates. All other parameters are measured for life of mine (LOM) and include the 2 year ramp up period. No royalties or encumbrances are attributed to any of the South West deposit.
The PEA was prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") by Micon International Limited ("Micon") of Toronto, Canada with an effective date of September 09, 2020. The Company will file the PEA on SEDAR at www.sedar.com in accordance with NI 43-101 within 45 days.
This preliminary economic assessment is preliminary in nature; it includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized.
GOLD PRICE SENSITIVITIES
The following table demonstrates the post-tax sensitivities of NPV and IRR to gold price per ounce. The base case, highlighted in the table below, assumes US$1,500 per ounce of gold and an exchange rate of 0.77 (US$/C$):

The Project economics are most sensitive to revenue drivers (gold prices, gold grade and recovery). Operating and capital cost sensitivities are similar and are also presented in Figure 1.
OPPORTUNITIES
The PEA outlined several initiatives that may enhance the Project including:
Potential to mine additional ounces from the current resource estimate from the developed underground infrastructure with more selective mining
Opportunity to drill out additional gold mineralization from underground not currently in the mineral resource estimate
Include lower grade gold mineralized haloes and veins systems not currently in the resource model which will lower the amount of dilution
With modelling of lower grade veins and haloes, development through these areas could potentially be processed through the mill. Current mine plan assumes the development in these areas carries no grade
Optimize the metallurgical recoveries with more test work to potentially increase the overall gold recoveries
The possibility of increasing the tonnes mined per year with longer/additional mining shifts
Additional mineral resources located adjacent to South West and currently the focus of ongoing exploration and resource updates by Moneta are not covered in this PEA. Additional resources and mine plans have the potential to significantly increase production from the project
Optimization of the mine plan and mine production schedule to potentially decrease costs and increase production
NEXT STEPS
The South West resource requires additional infill drilling to upgrade inferred resources to measured and indicated categories
Continue and expand the current environmental base line studies and data collection
Drill known open extensions of the resource to expand the potential size of the South West deposit
Additional metallurgical recovery and environmental test work is required to better define the process flow sheet
Drill out adjacent gold deposits to enable additional resources to be considered in any further development plans
Drill test exploration targets to continue to grow the resource base
Hydrological and geotechnical studies will be required
Commence pre-feasibility level mine engineering and development studies upon completion of resource expansion and infill drill programs
MINE PRODUCTION SCHEDULE
The PEA at South West considers underground mining utilizing ramp access with longitudinal long hole stoping mining methods. The initial development of the access ramp is to be performed by contractors with mine development and ore production transitioning to 100% owner owned operations in year 2. Two years have been scheduled for the ramp-up of production with the full production rate of 1,750 tpd being achieved in year 3. Full production occurs for 9 years for a total of 11 years mine life with average production of 75,700 ounces per year during full production, peaking in year 5 with 85,700 ounces of gold produced.
A minimum mining width of 3.00 m is used for the longitudinal long hole stoping mining planned, with 20 m between sub-levels and 15 m long stopes planned. The average width of stopes is approximately 8.0 m. Dilution of 0.5 m on both the footwall and hanging wall of stopes is added with no grade.

OPERATING COSTS
Owner operating costs were developed from first principles. Initial access development will be contracted and contractor rates were based on written quotes. Owner mining is assumed for all ore production and associated development. Ore is brought to the surface by means of a 4.0 m x 4.5 m access ramp utilizing 30 t trucks.

CAPITAL COSTS
Initial capital costs include a 15% contingency on direct and indirect costs. The initial capital costs also include owner's costs, EPCM costs, first fills, insurance and indirect costs. Sustaining costs include a 10% contingency on underground development costs.
Trade-off studies were evaluated to include "lease-to-purchase" options for mining equipment. The lease to purchase equipment does result in lower initial capital and higher IRR's but returned lower NPV valuations and higher cash costs of production. The lease to purchase remains an attractive development option to reduce initial capital costs.

SOUTH WEST MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE UPDATE
The mineral resource estimate for South West was updated by Micon for the PEA. The same geological interpretation and geological wireframes were used as per the November 2019 mineral resource update. No additional drilling has been performed by Moneta at South West since the November 2019 resource. Due to the updated economic parameters used in the PEA, the cut-off grade for the South West resource was changed from 3.0 g/t Au to 2.6 g/t Au, assuming US$1,250 per ounce gold. The current PEA only assessed the economics of producing gold from the South West deposit and did not evaluate the adjacent deposits on the Golden Highway Project.

Notes:
Mineral Resource Estimates are reported at a cut-off grade of 3.00 g/t Au for an underground mining scenario, except for the South West zone which used the cut-off determined in this PEA (2.6 g/t). The cut-off grade was calculated at a gold price of US$1,250 per ounce, an exchange rate of US$/C$ of 0.75 and operational assumptions outlined in Section 14 of this report. The cut-off for the South West zone was derived by calculations presented in the mining sections of this report.
The resource estimate is supported by statistical analysis with different high-grade capping applied to each of the deposits ranging from 6.0 g/t Au to 37.0 g/t Au on 1-m composites.
The mineral resources presented here were estimated with a block size of 10 m x 5 m x 10 m utilizing sub-blocks of variable size as required, and constrained within geological wire frames with a minimum width of 1.50 m, except for the South West update. There the mineral resources were estimated using a sub-blocked model with a parent block size of 15 m x 5 m x 15 m and child block size down to 5 m x 1 m x 5m utilizing these sub-blocks as required and constrained within geological wire frames with a minimum width of 1.50 m. The cells are estimated by Ordinary Kriging using the appropriate variogram model of each structure with individual search ellipsoids.
The mineral resources presented here were estimated by Micon International Limited using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) Definitions and Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves.
Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of mineral resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, market or other relevant issues.
The quantity and grade of reported Inferred Resources are somewhat uncertain in nature and there has not been sufficient work to define these Inferred Resources as Indicated or Measured Resources.
There are no historical underground voids from mining including shafts, ramps drifts or stopes in any of the deposit areas.
Tonnage estimates are based on bulk densities individually measured and calculated for each of the deposit areas, averaging 2.78 tonnes per cubic metre for the total resource. Resources are presented as undiluted and in situ.
The mineral resource estimates for South West and West Block are dated September 09, 2020. All other zones are dated January 15, 2019. The effective date for the drill hole database used to produce this updated mineral resource estimate for South West and West Block is November 26, 2019 and November 19, 2018 for the other zones. Tonnages and ounces in the tables are rounded to the nearest thousand and hundred respectively. Numbers may not total precisely due to rounding.
At the present time, Micon does not believe that the mineral resource estimate is materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.
METALLURGY
Gold recoveries in the processing plant are based on metallurgical recovery test work performed by SGS-Lakefield Laboratory Limited, based in Ontario, Canada performed in 2012 and 2019. Historical metallurgical recovery test-work conducted by Newmont Gold and Barrick in the 1990's was also reviewed. An average gold recovery of 94.2% is used for the owner build scenario assuming the inclusion of a gravity gold recovery circuit in the process flow sheet to capture coarse gold with 24 hour cyanide leaching of the gravity tails after crushing and grinding, based on the results of test work completed to date.
INFRASTRUCTURE
The Golden Highway project, in which the South West deposit is located, is located 100 km east of Timmins, Ontario adjacent to a major sealed highway, Highway 101. A 5 km access road from the highway affords access to the proposed portal site. High tensile electrical power grids occur within 5 km of the proposed site and carry sufficient power to supply several mining operations in the area. Water is locally available, as is building aggregate.
The proposed base case development option involves the construction of an ore stockpile pad, a 1,750 tpd processing plant with sufficient crushing, grinding and leach capacity to process the ore and recover gold into doré bars. For this option a tailings dam with capacity of approximately 6.0 million tonnes is required to be constructed at site. No camp is required due to the proximity of major population centres with significant local mine contracting and technical expertise.

The PEA also reviewed the option to process the mined resource at South West utilizing an existing processing plant in the Timmins mining camp. This scenario assumed the same mine plan and production rate with trucking to an existing processing plant and payment of a toll milling rate for the processing of ore and recovery of gold. Primary crushing is included in the costs and no gravity gold recovery circuit is assumed to be used in this option resulting in an average life of mine gold recovery rate of 92.2%. The same underground development capital costs are used as well as the same mine development infrastructure, but no processing plant and no tailings storage facility is assumed in the development plan. The toll treating options would allow for a faster development time with fewer permitting requirements, less construction time and lower capital requirements to develop the toll milling option.

Goldcorp/Newmont makes headway with plan to give Dome mine a new life

Goldcorp/Newmont makes headway with plan to give Dome mine a new life
Porcupine’s Dome started as an open pit and then went underground.
Newmont’s Goldcorp (TSX:NGT) (NYSE:NEM), the world’s number one bullion
miner in terms of output, is moving forward with its Century project,
which aims to extend the life its century-old Dome mine in Ontario.
The Dome mine received a negative sentence in January 2016, when
Goldcorp announced it was closing the operation in the summer due to
weak bullion prices that nearly half the company’s share price over the
previous year.
A few months later, however, the company literally stroke gold as it
found indicated mineral resource of 4.5 million ounces and a gold
inferred mineral resource of 0.9 million ounces (for a total of 5.4
million ounces) at what is now being called the Dome Century Project.
Dome Mine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dome_Mine
GOLDCORP MAY BE ABLE TO BEGIN DEVELOPING THE OPEN-PIT CENTURY PROJECT -
Goldcorp kicked off then a conceptual study to expand the open-pit mine,
which has just completed, and the project is entering its
prefeasibility stage, expected to take about 18 months.
“If we want to be economically viable and continue to contribute to
Timmins, we need projects like this to make that happen (…) this is
just an example of some of the ideas we have to take
PGM (Porcupine Gold Mines) into a second century,”
Marc Lauzier, general manager at PGM-Goldcorp told Timmins Today.
Dome is one of the oldest operating gold mines in North America
and one of the other two assets —
Hoyle Pond and Hollinger open pit —
that are part of the Porcupine operation.
While Dome has been what Goldcorp calls a “prolific” gold producer since
it began production in 1910, reserves are declining fast.
That leaves Porcupine with the Hollinger open pit, set to shut down by
2019, the Hoyle Pond underground operations and the processing
facility, which is fed by all three mines.
The potential large-scale open pit Century mine is expected to be
close to its development stage by the time Dome approaches the end of
its life, Lauzier said.
Despite having sold quite a few mines recently, Goldcorp expects to
produce approximately 2.5 million ounces of gold in 2017 and has set
itself some ambitious targets for the next five years.
The Vancouver-based miner expects gold production to increase 20% to
approximately 3 million ounces, excluding potential production from its
Canadian projects and its NuevaUnión joint venture in Chile.
Beside Moneta Gold Mine property is
Hollinger Gold Mines.
Lord Conrad Black has been the major owner of Hollinger Mines
for many years.

Here is the excerpt from the letter, :
Good afternoon,
Below is an announcement from Kirkland Lake Gold and Newmont from yesterday
in regards to forming a joint venture to explore the ground around
Moneta’s assets in the Timmins Camp.
We see this as very encouraging and a good validation on the prospective
nature of the belt where we are the sole junior with a large land
package
and a large growing resource with good robust grade.
Plus we already have a joint venture with Kirkland Lake Gold over the
adjacent very prospective land.

Moneta Announces Closing of Strategic Investment by Eric Sprott -
http://crweworld.com/article/news-provided-by-pr-newswire/1246018/moneta-announces-closing-of-strategic-investment-by-eric-sprott#
Moneta Porcupine Mines Inc holds a 100% interest in 5 core gold projects
and a 50% JV with
Kirkland Lake Gold strategically located on or along
the Destor Porcupine Fault Zone corridor (“Destor”), one of the key
mineralized structures in the Abitibi Greenstone belt in Ontario, with
excellent infrastructure including access roads, water, electricity,
and mills.
Most gold mineralization in the region is associated with the Destor,
including significant resources and producing mines now operated by
Porcupine Gold Mines (Goldcorp) and several others such as
Pan American Silver Corp. (Tahoe Resources), McEwen Mining, and
Kirkland Lake Gold.
The Golden Highway Camp has experienced rapid advancement of gold
resources by Moneta and others including Osisko Mining reflecting the
strong regional gold potential.
Moneta Porcupine Mines Inc. has interests in 1,046 claim units each
approximately 16,800 hectares in area (total area approximately 16,800
hectares) in the form of
mining patents, leases and staked claims.
Most of the Company’s landholdings are not subject to any royalty or
encumbrances other than minor royalties to third parties on a limited
number of claims primarily outside the Golden Highway Project.
The Porcupine Camp and Golden Highway Camp (here collectively referred
to as “Timmins Gold Camp“) is one of the most prolific gold-producing
areas in the world with over 75 million ounces of gold produced to
date, including that from some 26 mines, each of which
generated more than 100,000 ounces.
Moneta’s land position for gold exploration is one of the largest in
the Timmins Gold Camp including a commanding position in the emerging
Golden Highway Camp as well as an established position
in the Porcupine Camp.
The Golden Highway Project is a largely contiguous land package of
689 claim units or approximately 11,000 hectares, and contains a
significant gold NI 43-101 Resource Estimate (Jan 2019)
containing 383,400 oz indicated (2.6Mt @ 4.61 g/t)
plus 873,200 oz inferred (6.5Mt @ 4.21 g/t) -
had plenty of more drillinng since and will be upgraded -
Click to enlarge
Moneta’s recent primary gold exploration and resource development focus
has been the Golden Highway Project centred in Michaud Township
100 km east of Timmins, Ontario along Highway 101,
a major all-season route.
The Golden Highway Project captures 12 kms of the Destor Porcupine Fault
Zone Corridor, one of the most prolific Archean gold-bearing structures
in the world.
The project currently hosts a NI 43-101 resource,
spanning only 4 km of the corridor and found primarily within
sedimentary host rocks along a southern splay of the Destor.
Resource growth potential exists along
the remaining 8 km of largely untested strike length along
the Destor in contact with ultramafic units, where
limited historical drilling has already
confirmed gold mineralization.
The main unconformity which occurs as the mafic volcanic-sediment
contact also remains largely untested.
Moneta also has a 50% stake in the Garrison JV with Kirkland Lake Gold
in the Golden Highway Camp.
Moneta continues to maintain a large land holding in
Porcupine Gold Camp which includes the gold properties of
North Tisdale, Nighthawk Lake, Kayorum, DeSantis and Denton.
Additional properties with strategic value are historical base metal
projects and
include Loveland Nickel (Ni), Kamiskotia (Cu/Zn), and Fripp (Cu).

Interesting agreement.
Who CARES about Kirkland Gold - They don't know what they're doing (I mean, they're just a bunch of back-water socialists", aren't they ?)....he-he
And besides - Does that have anything to do with Moneta ?
Oh wait - Okay (I read on) . . . . . and found that your (Industrial Alliance Securities analyst George) "Mr. Topping" . . . . . likes Monetas' prospects
Whereas me I'm beginning to question such reasoning . . . . (because, this chart doesn't look all that great) : Regardless,
Thanks for the small heads-up anyways I guess - it at least shows that I'm not the only one hoping they do well.
Thing's startin' to look just a little bit dicey.....Like maybe "the run" is over.
If Sprott has any brains I'd recommend that he sell......since he probably bought down at 10

In the News The Globe and Mail reports in its Friday, June 5,
edition that Industrial Alliance Securities analyst George
Topping says Moneta Porcupine Mines (14.5 cents) is "undervalued."
The Globe's David Leeder writes in the Eye On Equities column
that Mr. Topping notes Moneta's "desirable location in an
existing camp with many underutilized mills and
record gold prices."
Accordingly, Mr. Topping began coverage of the gold exploration
company, which owns six projects in the Timmins mining camp,

Mr. Topping set a share target of 35 cents.
Analysts on average target the shares at 40 cents.
Mr. Topping further notes that "insiders and major shareholders
have added 2.7 million shares through the public market,
which to us is a bullish signal."
Eric Sprott, a "renowned" gold investor, recently increased
his interest in Moneta and now holds 9 per cent of its shares.
Mr. Topping says in a note:
"As the resource grows and/or is upgraded via infill,
Moneta will undergo a multiple expansion.
We await the PEA on the project before we assign our
own metrics to a potential mining plan.
However, we see a scenario where the company could secure
