EXPLANATORY NOTE Baja Mining Corp. (the Company or the Registrant) is a Canadian issuer eligible to file its annual report pursuant to Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), on Form 40-F pursuant to the multi-jurisdictional disclosure system of the Exchange Act. The Company is a foreign private issuer as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act. Equity securities of the Company are accordingly exempt from Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c), 14(f) and 16 of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 3a12-3. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This annual report on Form 40-F and the exhibits attached hereto contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and applicable Canadian securities legislation which may include, but is not limited to, statements with respect to the future financial or operating performance of the Company, its subsidiaries and its projects, the future price of copper, cobalt, zinc and manganese by-product metals, currency fluctuations, energy price fluctuations, the estimation of mineral reserves and resources, the realization of mineral reserve estimates, the timing and amount of estimated future production, costs of production, capital, operating and exploration expenditures, costs and timing of the development of new deposits, costs and timing of future exploration, requirements for additional capital, government regulation of mining operations, environmental risks, reclamation expenses, title disputes or claims and limitations of insurance coverage. These estimates and assumptions are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive and other uncertainties and contingencies, many of which, with respect to future events, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by the Company, or on its behalf. In making the forward-looking statements in this annual report on Form 40-F and the documents incorporated by reference herein, the Company has made several assumptions that it believes are appropriate, including, but not limited to the assumption that: market fundamentals will result in reasonable demand and prices for copper, cobalt, zinc and manganese by-product metals;mine plan scenarios will be viable and that development, construction and other work at the Boleo Project will proceed as expected;the Company will not be subject to any environmental disasters, significant litigation, significant regulatory changes or significant labour disruptions;the advice the Company has received from its consultants and advisors relating to matters such as mineral reserves and mineral resources and environmental requirements is reliable and correct and, in particular, that the models, dilution strategies and mining recovery estimates used to calculate mineral reserves and mineral resources are appropriate and accurate;planned mining techniques and processing of run-of-mine ore in the proposed hydrometallurgical plant will prove successful; andfinancing will be available on reasonable terms. We cannot assure you that any of these assumptions will prove to be correct. Often, but not always, forward looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "expect", "anticipate", "estimate", "may", "could", "would", "might", "will", "should", "intend", "believe", "target", "budget", "plan", "strategy", "goals", "objectives", "projection" or similar expressions, including negative variations. Information concerning mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates also may be considered forward-looking statements, as such information constitutes a prediction of what mineralization might be found to be present and/or economically recoverable if and when a project is actually developed or as development continues. In light of the risks and uncertainties inherent in all forward-looking statements, the inclusion or incorporation by reference of forward-looking statements in this annual report on Form 40-F should not be considered as a representation by the Company or any other person that the Company's objectives or plans will be achieved. Numerous factors could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements, including the following: 1


---

fluctuations in copper, cobalt, zinc and manganese and other metal prices;fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly the Canadian dollar/U.S. dollar/Mexican peso exchange rates;the increased demand for, and cost of, exploration, development and construction services and equipment;the Company's history of losses and the possibility of future losses;risks related to future exploration, development mining and mineral processing;the ability of the Company to achieve and/or meet production volume or operating cost estimates;the ability of the Company to achieve and/or maintain projected production levels at the Boleo Project;uncertainty related to title of the Company's mineral properties;the accuracy of mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates;the availability of infrastructure necessary to develop the Boleo Project;the cost of reagents and, in particular, sulphur;the ability of the Company to retain and recruit qualified personnel or raise capital;the ability of the Company to obtain external financing to develop the Boleo Project;risks associated with mining activities situated entirely in a single country;risks associated with potential changes in governmental legislation or regulatory requests;risks associated with development activities abroad;the risk that permits and regulatory approvals necessary to develop and operate a mine on the Company's property will not be available on a timely basis, on reasonable terms or at all;environmental risks;the loss of key personnel;hedging risks;the ability of the Company to comply with the terms of its credit facilities; andthe ability of the Company to maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect the Companys forward-looking statements. Some of the important risks and uncertainties that could affect forward-looking statements are described further in the Annual Information Form (AIF) of the Company filed as Exhibit 1to this annual report on Form 40-F. Should one or more of these risks and uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. The Companys forward-looking statements contained in the exhibits incorporated by reference into this annual report on Form 40-F are made as of the respective dates set forth in such exhibits. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, expectations and opinions of management on the date the statements are made. In preparing this annual report on Form 40-F, the Company has not updated such forward-looking statements to reflect any change in circumstances or in managements beliefs, expectations or opinions that may have occurred prior to the date hereof. Nor does the Company assume any obligation to update such forward-looking statements in the future, except as may be required by law. For the reasons set forth above, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. 2

NOTE TO UNITED STATES READERS-DIFFERENCES IN UNITED STATES AND CANADIAN REPORTING PRACTICES The Company is permitted, under the multi-jurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), to prepare this annual report on Form 40-F in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements, which differ from those of the United States. The Company prepares its financial statements, which are filed as Exhibit 2to this annual report on Form 40-F, in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and they are subject to Canadian auditing and auditor independence standards. They are not comparable to financial statements of United States companies. Significant measurement differences between Canadian GAAP and United States GAAP are described in Note 17 of the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company. RESOURCE AND RESERVE ESTIMATES The Companys AIF filed as Exhibit 1to this annual report on Form 40-F has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws. The terms mineral reserve, proven mineral reserve and probable mineral reserve are Canadian mining terms as defined in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101  Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (NI 43-101) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the CIM) - CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended. These definitions differ from the definitions in SEC Industry Guide 7 under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). Under SEC Industry Guide 7 standards, a final or bankable feasibility study is required to report reserves, the three-year historical average price is used in any reserve or cash flow analysis to designate reserves and the primary environmental analysis or report must be filed with the appropriate governmental authority. In addition, the terms mineral resource, measured mineral resource, indicated mineral resource and inferred mineral resource are defined in and required to be disclosed by NI 43-101; however, these terms are not defined terms under SEC Industry Guide 7 and are normally not permitted to be used in reports and registration statements filed with the SEC. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves. Inferred mineral resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists or is economically or legally mineable. Disclosure of contained ounces in a resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute reserves by SEC Industry Guide 7 standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. Accordingly, information contained in this annual report on Form 40-F and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain descriptions of the Companys mineral deposits that may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. 3

CURRENCY Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts in this annual report on Form 40-F are in Canadian dollars. The exchange rate of Canadian dollars into United States dollars, on December 31, 2009, based upon the noon buying rate in New York City for cable transfers payable in Canadian dollars as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, was U.S.$1.00 = Cdn.$1.0461. ANNUAL INFORMATION FORM The Companys AIF for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 is filed as Exhibit 1and incorporated by reference in this annual report on Form 40-F. AUDITED ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, including the report of the independent auditor with respect thereto, are filed as Exhibit 2and incorporated by reference in this annual report on Form 40-F. For a reconciliation of material measurement differences between Canadian and United States GAAP, see Note 17 to the Companys audited consolidated financial statements. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS The Companys managements discussion and analysis (MD&A) is filed as Exhibit 3and incorporated by reference in this annual report on Form 40-F. TAX MATTERS Purchasing, holding, or disposing of securities of the Company may have tax consequences under the laws of the United States and Canada that are not described in this annual report on Form 40-F. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Disclosure Controls and Procedures At the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 40-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of, and the with the participation of, the Companys management, including its Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Companys CEO and CFO have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to give reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 4


---

A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. It should be noted that a control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can only provide reasonable assurance, not absolute assurance, that the objectives of the control system are met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate. Management, including the CEO and CFO, assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on its assessment, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2009, the Companys internal control over financial reporting was effective and no material weaknesses in the Companys internal control over financial reporting were discovered. The Company is required to provide an auditors attestation report on its internal control over financial reporting for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. In this annual report on Form 40-F, the Companys independent registered auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, must state its opinion as to the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP has audited the Companys financial statements included in this annual report on Form 40-F and has issued an attestation report on the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Auditors Attestation Report As mentioned above, the Companys audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 are filed as Exhibit 2to this annual report on Form 40-F and is incorporated by reference herein. The audited consolidated financial statements is accompanied by the Independent Auditors Report ofPricewaterhouseCoopers LLP which includes the required disclosure. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting There have been no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting during its fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE The Company has a separately designated Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The Companys Board of Directors has determined that both the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are comprised of independent directors, based on the requirements for independence under Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act and Section 803 of the NYSE Amex Company Guide.

PRE-APPROVAL OF AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES PROVIDED BY INDEPENDENT AUDITORS The Audit Committee nominates and engages the independent auditors to audit the financial statements and approves all audit, audit-related services, tax services and other services provided by the Companys external auditors. To minimize relationships that could appear to impair the objectivity of the Companys independent auditors, the Audit Committee has restricted the non-audit services that he Companys independent auditors may provide primarily to tax services and review assurance services. Any services provided by the Companys external auditors that are not specifically included within the scope of the audit must be pre-approved by the Audit Committee prior to any engagement. In general, the Company seeks to obtain non-audit services from its independent auditors only when the services offered by the Companys independent auditors are more effective or economical than services available from other service providers, and, to the extent possible, only after competitive bidding. OFF-BALANCE SHEET TRANSACTIONS The Company does not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or relationships with unconsolidated special purpose entities. CODE OF ETHICS The Company adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the Code) for all its directors, executive officers and employees on August 1, 2007.
