(TSXV: APN) (WKN: A2JNFG) (“Altiplano” or the “Company”) provides an update on the legal actions initiated against two of the Company’s wholly owned Chilean subsidiaries, Andes Metals SpA and Altiplano Minerals SpA. The Company and the Company’s other subsidiaries are not subject to these initiated proceedings.
