MMI Messina Minerals Inc.

Messina Minerals Inc. (TSX VENTURE:MMI) (the "Company") is pleased to announce
that it has closed its recently announced non-brokered equity private placement
(see News Release October 13, 2010) by the issuance today of 1,220,000 units at
a price of $0.10 per unit for gross proceeds to the Company of $122,000. Each
non flow-through unit consists of one common share and one non-transferable
common share purchase warrant of the Company. Each warrant, expiring on March
12, 2012, entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company at a
price of $0.15. In addition, Messina has closed the flow-through portion of the
private placement by the issuance today of 3,564,167 flow-through units at a
price of $0.12 per flow-through unit for gross proceeds to the Company of
$427,700. Each flow-through unit consists of one flow-through common share and
one-half of one non-transferable common share purchase warrant. Each whole
warrant, expiring on March 12, 2012, entitles the holder to purchase one non
flow-through common share of the Company at a price of $0.15. Proceeds received
from the private placement are intended to be used to continue exploration work
on the Company's properties in central Newfoundland and for general corporate
purposes.


Finders' fees were paid to arms-length parties to the Company by way of the
issuance of 188,400 finders' units. The finders' units are the same as the non
flow-through units.


All securities issued pursuant to this private placement are subject to a four
month hold period that expires on March 13, 2011.


Peter Tallman President and CEO stated, "With completion of this financing,
Messina can begin a sustained exploration program on its central Newfoundland
properties targeting zinc mineralization at a time of increasing demand for the
metal and forecast mine production shortfalls."
