Hochschild Announces Changes in Board Composition

Hochschild Mining PLC (the "Company" or "Hochschild") (LSE: HOC) (OTCQX: HCHDF) today announces that following the successful transition of the Company's executive leadership, Ignacio Bustamante will be stepping down from the Board on 31 December 2023.  Furthermore, in line with good governance, on that date he will be replaced, as the nominee of the Company's largest shareholder Pelham Investment Corporation ("Pelham"), by current Non-Executive Director, Jorge Born Jnr.

Under the Relationship Agreement entered into between the Company and Pelham (which is controlled by Eduardo Hochschild), Pelham is entitled, among other things, to nominate two Non-Executive Directors on the Company's Board for as long as it holds at least 30% of the Company's ordinary shares.

Eduardo Hochschild, Board Chair, said:

"The Board and I want to thank Ignacio for enabling a smooth transition to our new leadership team led by Eduardo Landin. We wish Ignacio well in his future endeavours.

I am delighted that Jorge Born will continue to serve on the Board as a Non-Independent Non-Executive Director. His experience and knowledge of Latin America, and of Argentina and Brazil in particular, will be invaluable for our future growth strategy".
