Baja Issues Corporate Update and Provides Boleo Start-up Schedule Update - Seite 2

MMB has reported to Baja that it has completed its most recent schedule review for the Boleo Project, and has advised the Company of the following:

• Piping and instrumentation construction schedules remain under pressure due to ongoing work force shortages;

• MMB is now targeting mechanical completion of the copper circuit by the end of June 2014. First ore or hot commissioning is now expected to commence in early September, with October 1, 2014 being the targeted date for first copper production; and

• Mechanical completion of the cobalt zinc circuits is now scheduled for the middle of August 2014 due to lateness in delivery of certain equipment. Additionally, delays to the completion of the copper circuit are having a knock-on effect preventing the movement of crews to work on the construction of the back-end. First cobalt zinc production is now scheduled for November 1, 2014.
