12.01.2013  |  Marketwired
TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 01/11/13 -- Hochschild Mining plc (LSE: HOC) ("Hochschild") is pleased to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, 1710503 Alberta Ltd. (the "Offeror") has, since the initial extension of its November 16, 2012 offer (the "Offer") to acquire all of the outstanding common shares ("Shares") of Andina Minerals Inc. ("Andina") for CAD $0.80 per Share in cash on December 28, 2012, received to date tenders of an additional 5,308,672 Shares. The Offeror has taken up, and will within the time prescribed by applicable law, pay for all such additional Shares validly deposited pursuant to the Offer and not withdrawn prior to 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on January 11, 2013. Shareholders who deposited their Shares to the Offer will receive payment for such shares as soon as reasonably possible. After taking up the deposited Shares, Hochschild and its affiliates now own 117,432,924 Shares, representing 90.84% of the outstanding Shares on a fully-diluted basis.

As more than 90% of the Shares sought were deposited to the Offer, the Offeror intends to acquire all of the remaining Shares of Andina not deposited under the Offer pursuant to the compulsory acquisition provisions of the Business Corporations Act (Alberta), which transaction is expected to close in February 2013. As soon as possible, the Offeror further intends to cause the Shares to be de-listed from the TSX Venture Exchange and Andina to cease being a reporting issuer under applicable securities laws.

Hochschild's address is 46 Albemarle Street, London, United Kingdom, W1S 4JL. A copy of the early warning report to be filed by Hochschild and the Offeror will be available shortly under Andina's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and can be obtained by contacting the Hochschild representative listed below.
