Highlights:
Drill hole MGH19-113 intersected the extensions of the targeted Gap veins south of and at depth below the current resource at South West. MGH19-117 intersected the veins at depth below the updated resource.
MGH19-113
· Walnut Vein
Drill hole MGH19-113 intersected 3.75 metres ("m") @ 3.10 grams per tonne gold ("g/t Au") including 1.90 m @ 5.79 g/t Au including 0.90m @ 10.60 g/t Au, and 2.65 g/t Au @ 6.73 g/t Au including 1.75 m @ g/t expanding the width and grade of this vein
· Willow Vein
Drill hole MGH19-113 intersected 2.65 m @ 2.24 g/t Au, including 0.80 m @ 5.84 g/t Au extending this vein by 50 m to the south
· Sycamore Vein
Drill hole MGH19-113 intersected 1.65 m @ 7.95 g/t Au including 0.80 m @ 9.37 g/t Au extending the new Sycamore vein by 100 m to the south and 120 m to depth
MGH19-117
· Yew Vein
Drill hole MGH19-117 intersected 1.00 m @ 5.49 g/t Au and 4.00 m @ 2.17 g/t Au including 1.03 m @ 3.90 g/t Au upgrading the grade and width of this vein
· Gap-2 Vein
Drill hole MGH19-117 intersected 2.40 m @ 3.04 g/t Au including 0.70 m @ 8.04 g/t Au extending this vein 100 m to the south
· New Vein
Drill hole MGH19-117 intersected 3.00 m @ 2.57 g/t Au including 1.00 m @ 5.41 g/t Au from a new a new vein
Gary O'Connor, CEO & Chief Geologist commented, "We are encouraged by the ongoing success of the 2019 winter drill program which has continued to intersect the strike and depth extensions of the Gap series of veins at South West beyond the current resource adding up to 200 m strike length to the south and over 300 m depth extent. We are also pleased to have again intersected the depth and southern strike extensions of the new Sycamore vein. The drill program has intercepted many of the veins included in the current resource at South West upgrading the grade and width of veins and confirming the location and continuity. These intercepts will upgrade the confidence of the resource and potentially increase overall grade. The ongoing drill program is designed to continue to test the extensions of the Gap veins and the West Block area veins which were not included in the recent resource estimate update. The drill program is continuing to be successful at drilling the extensions of the resource."
The latest assay results are from the next two drill holes, MGH19-113 and MGH19-117, totalling 1,714.50 m of drilling completed at the South West deposit to test the southern and depth extensions of the Gap veins. The drill holes also infilled the eastern vein structures of the South West deposit upgrading and extending the resource and confirming vein locations, thicknesses and grade. The program has again confirmed the new vein Sycamore.

Moneta Gold Mine The Highest average grade Gold Mine Producer in Timmins - still virgin because the mill destroyed early by fire - the mining were @ shallow level - the rich ore often start below 1000 meter deep -
The Moneta Gold Mine is located in the NW portion of Moneta’s Kayorum property and is immediately adjacent to the east to the Hollinger Gold Mine.
Total production between 1938-1943 was 149,250 oz gold from 314,829 tons at an average grade of 0.47 oz/t.
The Moneta Gold Mine underground infrastructure includes a shaft to 1,492 feet with 6 levels of development.
Moneta’s Gold Mine Kayorum property is of particular interest as the immediately adjacent Hollinger Gold Mine pit project has been approved with development underway in 2012. The project envisions a 200-250m deep multiple phase open pit based on a 2010 resource of 3.47Mozs and 782,000 oz in reserves.
Exploration drill programs have also identified several underground mining opportunities by ramp and existing underground infrastructure for both the Hollinger (Millerton) and McIntyre (Central Porphyry Zone) mines - Hollinger underground working butt right up the border of Moneta Gold Mine @ Moneta’s Kayorum property still very large gold mine property - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollinger_Mines
Moneta Announces Closing of Strategic Investment by Eric Sprott -
Moneta 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 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 has interests in 1,046 claim units each approximately 16 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 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 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).

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).
