Baja Mining Corp. has been advised by Minera y Metalúrgica del Boleo, S.A. P.I. de C.V. that access to and from the Boleo site located near Santa Roselia, Baja California Sur, Mexico is being restricted by the local authorities. Senior management of MMB has informed Baja that the Municipality of Mulegé has claimed it is entitled to certain construction permit-related payments from MMB. The restrictions result directly from these claims. Baja and MMB believe that resolution of the legal appeal launched to resolve this matter still remains before the courts and consequently the Municipio has acted without legal authority in imposing restrictions.
