ITEM 8.01
 
Other Events.

As previously disclosed in a Current Report of Form 8-K filed on April 27, 2012, on April 23, 2012, the Staff of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC issued a letter to CD International Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) advising that it had determined to initiate proceedings to delist the Company’s securities from The NASDAQ Stock Market. Accordingly, on April 30, 2012, the Company requested a hearing before a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”) at which it intends to address each of the Staff’s allegations and request continued listing on The NASDAQ Stock Market.  NASDAQ has advised the Company that the hearing will be held on June 14, 2012, and that the delisting action will be stayed and the Company’s listing will continue pending the issuance of a final decision by the Panel following the hearing. NASDAQ generally advises issuers that the Panel intends to issue its decision in up to 30 calendar days following the hearing date. No assurance can be given that the Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing.
