New Hana Copper Mining Ltd. (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HML) is pleased to
announce that the Company is changing its name to Handa Copper Corporation.
Effective at the opening April 25, 2014, the common shares of Handa Copper
Corporation will commence trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the ticker
symbol "HEC" (TSX VENTURE:HEC). There is no change in the Company's capital
structure in connection with the name change.


"The 'handa' is a copper ingot that was forged in the shape of a cross and used
as a currency for trade in central and southern Africa from approximately the
16th century. Our new name reinforces our focus on identifying and acquiring
copper assets in some of the most prospective geological belts in Africa," said
Marek Kreczmer, Chief Executive Officer.


The Company's efforts to identify, evaluate and acquire copper projects in
Africa are being led by Jon R. Stacey, its recently appointed president. Mr.
Stacey is overseeing the Company's operations from its offices in Zambia and is
currently reviewing a number of potential projects.


"Work is being done to evaluate a variety of copper projects," said Mr. Stacey.
"Through my extensive network of contacts in the region, promising projects are
presented regularly. I am confident that in the near future we will be able to
announce our first project in what we expect will ultimately be a portfolio of
noteworthy copper projects in Africa."


Mr. Stacey has extensive experience working in a number of jurisdictions in
Africa including Zambia, Zimbabwe, Guinea, Sierra Leone and South Africa. His
experience includes the identification and acquisition of prospective
exploration projects in multiple jurisdictions across Africa, offering
geological consultancy services to an international client base.
