(TSXV: APN) ("APN" or the "Company") (APN: TSXV; ALTPF: OTCQB; 9AJ1: FWB) is pleased to announce that the Company intends to change its name to "Altiplano Metals Inc." as part of a broader marketing strategy and to more accurately reflect its current business operations in Chile.  The proposed change of name is subject to the acceptance of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") and the approval of the Registrar of Companies for British Columbia.
