Endeavour Mining Confirms ASX Delisting and Corporate Update

PARIS, Jan. 11, 2016 /CNW/ - Endeavour Mining Corporation ("Endeavour Mining") (TSX:EDV) (OTCQX:EDVMF) confirms it has been removed from the official list of the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX"), at the request of the company, at the close of trading today.  Endeavour Mining will continue to be listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") under the symbol EDV and quoted in the United States on the OTCQX under the symbol EDVMF. 

Endeavour Mining also announces it is transferring its Investor Relations and Administrative office from Vancouver to Paris.  Effective today, Vincent Benoit Executive Vice President — Strategy & Business Development has an expanded role including investor relations and corporate communications.   

Neil Woodyer, CEO, stated

"We are starting 2016 with a continued focus on corporate efficiency.  Today we are completing the ASX delisting process. This reduces our administrative, compliance and legal expenses, which could no longer be justified given the low levels of trading on the ASX relative to our TSX listing.

We are also relocating our Investor Relations and Administrative office from Vancouver to Paris.  Vincent Benoit, who joined Endeavour Mining in November 2015 following the transaction with La Mancha, has assumed the role of heading up our investor relations program from Paris.  Vincent has over 25 years of Corporate Finance and Investor Relations experience and is a registered Chartered Accountant. 

I would like to thank Doug Reddy, who has been with Endeavour since 2006, for his contributions to the Company, most recently in his role leading and expanding our investor relations program."
