(February 22, 2019: Toronto, Canada)  Rio Silver Inc. (TSX.V: RYO) (“Rio Silver” or the “Company”) announces that the Company and Norsemont II Resources Inc. (“Norsemont”) have mutually agreed to terminate their efforts to combine the assets of the companies as described in the earlier news release of the Company dated October 24, 2018. Following Rio Silver’s due diligence review, Rio Silver found a number of irregularities in the title documentation and other inconsistencies with respect to Norsemont’s Cochavara properties in Peru. Despite the parties’ efforts to correct them, as the timeframe for resolution is unknown, the parties have agreed to release each other from the underlying proposal at this time.

In light of the circumstances, both parties determined that it would be in the respective parties’ best interests to proceed on independent courses of business. Norsemont has acknowledged the efficient due diligence efforts of the Rio Silver team and will be reimbursing the Company for direct expenses incurred on behalf of Norsemont at its Cochavara properties. The companies will remain in contact over future opportunities.

Rio Silver remains excited by the opportunity presented at its wholly owned Ninobamba precious metal property in central Peru. The Company will be focusing its efforts on arranging financing to move forward with a significant exploration effort at this project in the year ahead.

I started taking Klonopin 5 years ago as prescribed by a neurologist due to a strong tremor. There were also severe panic attacks. It relaxes very well. Now I try to take it from time to time, when some tense meeting is ahead, for example. It removes all the symptoms. If you decide to give it a try, I recommend http://medspa44.com/products/klonopin/ – it offers the best price.
