Rio Silver Inc. (TSX-V: RYO | OTC: RYOOF) is a Canadian silver exploration and development company focused on advancing high-grade silver projects in Peru. The Company is building a focused, pure-play silver platform centered on disciplined execution, capital efficiency, and long-term shareholder value.
Rio Silver controls two primary silver assets in Peru, Maria Norte and Santa Rita, both located in established mining districts with existing infrastructure, road access, and proximity to processing facilities.
Rio Silver’s strategy is grounded in practicality and execution. The Company focuses on acquiring and advancing silver-dominant mineral systems in proven mining jurisdictions, prioritizing projects that demonstrate high grades, infrastructure advantages, and realistic development pathways.
By leveraging Peru’s established mining framework, Rio Silver aims to advance exploration and development in parallel where appropriate, while maintaining strict capital discipline and regulatory compliance.
Rio Silver advances its projects through a structured, stage-based development process designed to reduce risk, improve technical understanding, and support informed decision-making. This progression reflects how management evaluates and advances assets over time.
Rio Silver’s projects are silver-dominant systems that have demonstrated strong grades through surface sampling and historical workings. This focus provides direct leverage to silver prices and exploration success.
Both Maria Norte and Santa Rita benefit from existing road access and proximity to processing facilities. At Maria Norte, operating mills are located approximately 11 kilometres from site, supporting potential low-capital development scenarios.
The Company maintains a tightly managed share structure with significant insider and strategic ownership. This alignment supports long-term decision-making and limits unnecessary dilution.
Rio Silver holds royalty interests and equity positions from prior project transactions. These assets provide recurring financial support and financial flexibility while preserving shareholder value.
With multiple projects located within the same metallogenic belt, Rio Silver is building a regional silver footprint with potential for expansion, discovery, and operational synergies.
Peru is one of the world’s leading silver-producing countries and hosts some of the largest known silver reserves globally. The country benefits from a skilled workforce, a deep mining culture, and well-developed infrastructure that supports exploration and mine development.
Rio Silver’s projects are located in Peru’s central Andean polymetallic belts, including the Huachocolpa District of Huancavelica. This region is known for high-grade silver-lead-zinc vein systems and decades of underground mining activity.
Rio Silver is committed to responsible exploration and development. The Company emphasizes regulatory compliance, technical rigor, environmental stewardship, and constructive engagement with local communities.
Community relationships are approached with transparency and respect, with the goal of building long-term partnerships that support both project advancement and local economic participation.
