RIO SILVER INC. EXPANDS US INVESTOR ACCESS WITH OTCQB UPLIST

Rio Silver Inc. has received approval to uplist onto the OTCQB market.

The OTCQB is a United States trading platform operated by OTC Markets Group Inc., designed for developing and entrepreneurial-stage companies. The OTCQB is recognized by the Securities and Exchange Commission as an "established public market" for determining the public market price when registering securities for resale. The company's common shares were approved for trading on the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol RYOOF, giving U.S. retail and institutional investors improved access to the company's shares at this inflection point where global silver production is decreasing and interest in the purest of silver metal producers, is accelerating, especially when the majority of the co-product is gold.

In addition, the company announces that it has granted an aggregate of 850,000 incentive stock options to consultants of the company, exercisable at a price of 35 cents with the exercise periods of one year and three years from the date of grant. The grant of these options is subject to the approval of the exchange.
