Rio Silver with green light from the community to advance in the Jorimina gold project Mining company Rio Silver Inc. has taken a significant step forward in its Jorimina project, located in Ayacucho, Peru, by finalizing a surface access agreement with the local community for one year. This agreement is crucial to kickstart exploration activities in this gold and silver deposit in the central-southern region of the country. The milestone achieved with the surface access agreement allows Rio Silver to begin exploration work in Jorimina. This accomplishment adds to the recent completion of an Environmental Impact Study and the holding of community workshops in collaboration with the local community president and council, essential steps in obtaining the necessary permits for drilling in the area. Previously, the Jorimina project was part of a joint venture with Newmont, one of the world's leading gold producers, which invested US$7 million in this asset, highlighting its potential as a precious metals deposit. Newmont conducted extensive geophysical and geochemical exploration programs, followed by a detailed metallurgical review and an initial diamond drilling campaign. Despite the progress made, in 2012, a market price correction prevented the execution of a follow-up drilling campaign that would have allowed the definition of the project's resources. Rio Silver has received all the data collected by Newmont in 2012, which recommended the advancement of the project, emphasizing its potential to support a medium-sized mining operation. The company expects to obtain the necessary drilling permits by the end of the third quarter of 2024. Currently, they are working in collaboration with potential drilling contractors to prepare for the mobilization of equipment and crews once the permits are obtained and the necessary improvements in property access are made. Rio Silver President Chris Verrico expressed enthusiasm for the progress made in Jorimina, considering this advancement as an exceptional milestone in resource delineation, especially in a context of solid prices in precious metals. This achievement represents a promising opportunity for value creation for the company and its shareholders. Success in community engagement and progress in permits could also favor community involvement in the high-sulfidation epithermal deposit Ninobamba, located near Jorimina. This initiative represents another significant growth opportunity for Rio Silver shareholders, strengthening the company's position in the precious metals market. Rio Silver focuses on resource development, acquiring and promoting precious metal assets with high return potential. With its mining objectives in Ninobamba and Jorimina, the company seeks open-pit and large-scale exploitation opportunities. The progress in Jorimina positions Rio Silver at a crucial moment in its trajectory, preparing for new opportunities in the precious metals market.
