Baja Mining Reports That it Has Settled All Disputes with LDCMS

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Jan 24, 2014) - Baja Mining Corp. ("Baja") (TSX:BAJ)(OTCQB:BAJFF) is pleased to announce that it has reached an agreement with Louis Dreyfus Metals Commodities (Suisse) SA ("LDCMS") to settle their disputes relating to the Boleo Project in Baja California, Mexico

As reported in previous news releases, in May 2012, LDCMS commenced arbitration proceedings against Baja in the London Court of Arbitration (the "LCIA") and, in June 2012, proceedings against Baja in the Supreme Court of British Columbia. Both proceedings related to the Boleo Project cost overruns announced by Baja in April 2012. As recently reported in Baja's Interim Financial Statements and MD&A for the period ended September 30, 2013, Baja filed a counterclaim against LDCMS in the LCIA arbitration proceedings. As a result of bringing the counterclaim, Baja was required to post Cdn$200,000 with the LCIA (the "Counterclaim Security"), which funds were held in trust and were to be paid to LDCMS in the event that the arbitral tribunal in the LCIA arbitration proceedings awarded legal costs to LDCMS as a result of its defence of Baja's counterclaim.

As a result of the settlement announced today, Baja and LDCMS have fully and finally terminated these proceedings. Under the terms of the settlement:

• Baja and LDCMS agreed that the Convertible Cost Overrun Facility dated September 28, 2010 (the "COF") is terminated and no longer exists;

• Both Baja and LDCMS agreed to fully and finally withdraw all known claims made or which could have been made in the LCIA arbitration proceedings and the proceedings in the Supreme Court of British Columbia;

• Baja shall receive a refund of the Counterclaim Security from the LCIA; and

• Baja and LDCMS agreed that the Bonus Warrant Agreement dated September 28, 2010 and bonus warrants issued to LDCMS pursuant to the COF, which were never exercised by LDCMS, are terminated and no longer exist.

The other terms of the settlement are confidential.

It is Baja's view that it is permanently impossible for a draw to be effected under the Letter of Credit provided by LDCMS in relation to the COF, and Baja has requested that the letter of credit be returned to the issuing bank for cancellation.

Baja is very pleased to have resolved its differences with LDCMS on an amicable basis and looks forward to a productive future relationship with LDCMS, which remains a significant stakeholder in the Boleo Project.
