TORONTO, March 31, 2014 /CNW/ - Jaguar Mining Inc. ("Jaguar" or the "Company") has announced today that further to its press release dated February 11, 2014, the Toronto Stock Exchange's (the "TSX") scheduled delisting of the common shares of the Company has been extended to April 30, 2014.

The TSX-V has conditionally accepted the listing of Jaguar's common shares. There can be no assurance that a listing on the TSX-V, or another exchange, will be obtained before Jaguar is delisted from the TSX or at all. Trading in the common shares of Jaguar has been suspended since December 23, 2013 and will remain suspended until the delisting from the TSX or until the transition of the Company's listing to the TSX-V or another exchange.
