"We have received comments from retail and institutional investors that the gold resource news we released on December 1, 2011 is a game changer for both Moneta and the entire Timmins Gold Camp. These comments included numerous references to the fact that Moneta's market capitalization is severely disconnected from the perceived value of our current gold resources. Accordingly, the Moneta board has elected to implement a Shareholder Rights Plan for the protection of all shareholders."
