Hochschild Mining PLC ("Hochschild" or "the Company") (LSE: HOC) (OTCQX: HCHDF) is pleased to announce that its ordinary shares are now trading on the OTCQX Best Market under the ticker symbol of HCHDF. The OTCQX Best Market is the highest market tier of OTC Markets on which 11,000 U.S. and global securities trade. Trading on the OTCQX Market will enhance the visibility and accessibility of the Company to U.S. investors. Hochschild's ordinary shares will continue to trade on the LSE.

Ignacio Bustamante, Chief Executive Officer said:

"We see trading on the OTCQX Best Market as a valuable opportunity and believe it will provide a cost-effective way to access U.S. investors, who have shown a strong historical appetite for investing in non-U.S. stocks as well as the global mining sector. We expect Hochschild's focus on silver and gold and also on rare earths to be of particular interest to U.S. investors and we are optimistic that this interest will translate into increased U.S. ownership of our shares."
