Item 3.01                                           Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

On July 1, 2015, McEwen Mining Inc. (the “Company”) was notified by the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) that the average closing price of the Company’s common stock had fallen below $1.00 per share over a period of 30 consecutive trading days, which is the minimum average share price required by Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual (“Section 802.01C”).

In response, as required by Section 802.01C, the Company plans to notify the NYSE of its intent to cure the deficiency and restore its compliance with the listing standards of Section 802.01C. The Company has six months following receipt of the notification to regain compliance with the minimum share price requirement.

The notice has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s common stock, which will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE during this period, subject to the Company’s compliance with other listing standards.  The common stock will continue to trade under the symbol “MUX,” but with the added designation of “.BC” to indicate the Company’s “below compliance” status. In the event that the Company fails to restore its compliance with the continued listing standards of Section 802.01C, that section calls for the NYSE to commence procedures for the suspension and delisting of the Company’s common stock.

If the common stock ultimately were to be delisted for any reason, it could negatively impact the Company by (i) reducing the liquidity and market price of the Company’s common stock; (ii) reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire the Company’s common stock, which could negatively impact the Company’s ability to raise equity financing; (iii) limiting the Company’s ability to use a registration statement to offer and sell freely tradable securities, adversely affecting the Company’s ability to access the public capital markets; and (iv) impairing the Company’s ability to provide equity incentives to its employees.

The Company’s listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange, under the symbol “MUX,” is unaffected by any actions of the NYSE.

Item 7.01                                           Regulation FD Disclosure

On July 2, 2015, the Company issued a press release announcing it had received a notice of noncompliance from the NYSE, as required under Section 802.01C. A copy of the press release is attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1.

The information furnished under this Item 7.01, including the exhibits, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by reference to such filing.
