Item 8.01

Other Events.

In late October 2012, Chile Mining Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) commenced full-scale operations at its Ana Maria plant and began producing copper cathodes. To date, the Company has harvested 9 metric tons of copper from the Ana Maria plant. The Company is selling the produced copper to Madeco S.A., a producer of copper cables and other byproducts, and one of the largest clearinghouses for copper in Chile. The Company continues to refine its copper production process in order to maximize the quality of the copper produced.

In addition to the copper which has been produced, the Company estimates that it has delivered additional raw mineral containing roughly 35 metric tons of copper to the Ana Maria plant for future production. The Company expects to extract the copper from this raw material over the next several months, and will continue to deliver additional mineral for processing.
