Baja Mining Company Update-AGM and SRK Report

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/26/13 -- Baja Mining Corp. ("Baja") (TSX: BAJ)(OTCQB: BAJFF) today announced that at the annual and special general meeting of shareholders held in Vancouver on June 25, 2013, shareholders voted to re-elect Tom Ogryzlo, Wolf Seidler, Ross Glanville and Peter M. Clausi to the board.

The proposed special resolution to introduce an advance notice requirement in connection with shareholders intending to nominate directors at meetings of Baja's shareholders was not approved by shareholders, and therefore Baja has not adopted the proposed amendment to its articles.

Baja's board would like to express its gratitude to its shareholders for their support during past year.

During the meeting Baja's senior management team provided a corporate update. A copy of the presentation can be found on the home page of the corporate website at www.bajamining.com.
