MONETA COMPLETES FINANCING

November 10, 2015, Timmins, Ontario - Moneta Porcupine Mines Inc. (TSX:ME) (OTC:MPUCF) (XETRA:MOP) (the 'Company') announces the completion of a non-brokered private placement.

The Company issued 10,000,000 units at a price of $0.11 per unit ('Units') comprised of one common share and one half of one purchase warrant exercisable at $0.18 per full warrant for twelve months for gross proceeds of

$1,100,000 (the 'Placement'). There were no finder's fees or commissions paid. The Placement is subject to a four month hold period and regulatory approval. The net proceeds will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The Company is currently evaluating the potential of a standalone underground mining scenario of the identified high grade gold within and below the proposed open pit, as reported in the latest Golden Highway Preliminary Economic Analysis (PEA) and NI 43-101 resource estimate (2012). This standalone underground scenario would utilize a ramp system and selectively mine the higher grade blocks. It would result in significantly lower upfront and ongoing capital expenditures, with a reduced surface footprint and environmental impact.

There has been 50,000 metres of primarily in-fill drilling since the (2012) NI 43-101 resource estimate that is expected to materially improve the category of ounces in the next resource update, irrespective of the mining approach. The standalone underground provides a potential alternative, and does not preclude or invalidate the PEA and NI 43-101 resource estimate which proposed a combined open pit and underground mining approach. Readers are cautioned that the standalone underground mining scenario is not supported by a PEA and this differs from the existing PEA which assumed a joint open pit and underground mining approach.
