Rio Silver Completes Agreement with Local Community at Jorimina Project, Peru

Rio Silver Completes Agreement with Local Community at Jorimina Project, Peru

Rio Silver Inc. ("Rio Silver" or the "Company") (TSX.V: RYO) is pleased to announce it has finalized a surface access agreement ("the Agreement") with the local Community for a period of one year at the Company's Jorimina Project, an advanced goldsilver project near the city of Ayachucho in south central Peru.

A recently completed Environmental Impact Study and community workshops aided by the President and Council of the local community, represent the final steps of the drill permitting application process and allow for the initiation of activities at this highly prospective, bulk tonnage gold and silver target located at the Company's wholly owned, Jorimina, Gold / Silver Project.

Jorimina was previously a joint venture project of Newmont, one of the world's largest gold producers, that earned its interest from Southern Peru Copper by spending $US 7 million outlining that it was in fact a precious metals dominant deposit. Newmont performed extensive geophysical and geochemical exploration programs followed by a detailed metallurgical review as part of an internal preliminary economic analysis. This was based upon their initial diamond drilling campaign, which was a fence or row of widely spaced diamond core drilling holes, that transected the property. A planned follow up, resource defining, diamond drilling campaign was never realized due to a major market correction in 2012. The Company is in receipt of all the data generated and summarized in the 2012 Newmont report, which strongly recommended advancement of the project for which, upon a successful resource defining drill evaluation, could be capable of supporting a robust midsized mining operation.

Rio Silver expects receipt of the necessary drill permitting late in Q3, 2024, and is working with potential drill contractors to prepare to mobilize crews and equipment upon the receipt of the permits and minor property access upgrades.

Rio Silver's President, Chris Verrico, states" We are very pleased to have been able to advance Jorimina towards resource delineation, truly an exceptional milestone while we look forward to very strong precious metals pricing. Newmont had used a $1200/oz gold value at Jorimina in their preliminary economic analysis at Jorimina. It is an exciting entry point for future valuation gains! Rio Silver has a very successful track record of permitting successes and a very focused and experienced team that can deliver on our objectives. Our recent success with community engagement and permitting advances, may aid our ability to engage the community that is associated with the adjoining Ninobamba, high sulfidation, epithermal silver/gold deposit located just 6.5 kilometers east from Jorimina, under one continuous land holding and another opportunity for an accretive valuation increase for Rio Silver shareholders.

Rio Silver is a resource development company that has been selectively acquiring and advancing precious metal assets that afford the best possible leverage and returns in anticipation of an increasingly more favorable precious metals bull market. Both our Niñobamba and Jorimina area Au/Ag targets are suggestive of near surface, bulk mineable open pit targets.

We remain ever impressed and optimistic by the resilience and ingenuity of our host country as the Government continues to endorse supportive mining policies ensuring continued growth and opportunity throughout Peru.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF Rio Silver INC.

1911 Gold Commences PEA on True North Project and Provides Update on Underground Progress

1911 Gold Commences PEA on True North Project and Provides Update on Underground Progress

1911 Gold Corporation (" 1911 Gold " or the " Company ") (TSXV: AUMB,OTC:AUMBF) (OTCQB: AUMBF) (FRA: 2KY) is pleased to announce that it has engaged AMC Consultants ("AMC") of Toronto, Canada to complete a Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") study on the Company's wholly-owned True North Gold Project, located in Manitoba .

The PEA will evaluate the potential restart of underground mining operations at the True North mine, utilizing the existing permitted 1,300 tonne-per-day processing facility in Bissett . AMC will assess development and mining method scenarios based on the Company's current mineral resource estimate and extensive underground infrastructure, while referencing the Company's own internally developed mine plans. While the PEA will not incorporate results from recent and planned drilling, management believes that continued exploration success may provide significant upside beyond the scope of this assessment.

"Initiating a PEA with AMC is a critical milestone as we advance the True North Mine toward a restart," stated Shaun Heinrichs , President and CEO of 1911 Gold. "We intend to use the results of the PEA, together with delineation drilling to be completed in the fall on two bulk sample target zones, to finalize plans for a trial production run in mid-2026. This initial trial mining campaign, expected to last 3 - 5 months, will provide an important step toward demonstrating the planned mining and development methods, as well as confirm the resource and economics."

The Company anticipates delivering the PEA by the first quarter of 2026, which will provide the foundation for redevelopment planning and engagement with key stakeholders.

Underground Status Update

Momentum underground continues to build, with rehabilitation work nearing completion on Level 16 and other supporting levels in preparation for the next phase of drilling. Hancon Mining Ltd. mobilized crews to the site in August to complete critical rehabilitation and infrastructure upgrades required for drill access, with rigs scheduled to arrive in late September.

Further information on the planned drill program will be provided closer to the commencement date, with a total of 30,000 metres planned over the next several quarters. Drilling will include:

  • Exploration drilling focused on expanding the size potential of the recently discovered San Antonio West and San Antonio Southeast zones located adjacent to the historically mined San Antonio zone, within reach of existing underground workings.
  • Delineation drilling on the bulk sample target zones identified for early trial mining.
  • Resource expansion drilling to test extensions of resources scheduled for near-term production upon completion of the PEA.

These programs, together with the planned trial mining campaign, will deliver critical technical data to validate mining methods, inform development decisions, and unlock additional exploration opportunities across the broader True North Gold Project.
