Rio Silver Inc. (TSX-V: RYO | OTC: RYOOF) has
initiated metallurgical testwork that will assist in designing a
process flow sheet to optimize silver recoveries from planned mineral
extraction and processing activities at its Maria Norte Project, Peru.
This is an important step in defining the metallurgical
characteristics of the mineralization at Maria Norte. Results of this
work will assist the Company in assessing the Project’s
potentials value. It is expected that continuing metallurgical work
will pursue optimization within a disciplined, low-capital-intensity
development framework.
Metallurgical Review and Flow Sheet Design Work
Representative samples of mineralization collected along the targeted
Maria Vein, beginning at the planned portal access site and extending
along surface exposures, have been submitted to Asesor Procesos
Metalurgicos, a specialist firm in mineral processing circuit analysis
and design based in Trujillo, Peru.
The metallurgical work is being led by Jose Orlando Moncada Rojas and
is focused on:
Characterizing silver mineralization and liberation behavior
Evaluating processing responses and recovery optimization
Designing a preliminary processing flow sheet aligned with third-party
toll-milling scenarios
Upon completion of the analytical review and process engineering
phase, check samples will be submitted to Certimin in Lima, Peru for
an independent follow-up check of the proposed flow sheet design and
metallurgical results.
This staged approach is intended to provide technical confidence ahead
of processing, while maintaining flexibility and capital discipline.
Management Commentary
“Metallurgy is the technical foundation that turns
mineralization into recoverable silver, and this work is critical to
how we move forward,” said Chris Verrico, President and Chief
Executive Officer of Rio Silver. “By undertaking a detailed
metallurgical review and flow sheet design now, and then independently
verifying those results, we are advancing Maria Norte along a
disciplined, low-capex processing pathway. The market should view this
as a meaningful step toward processing readiness, one that helps
solidify our execution plan.”
What’s Next
Completion of metallurgical characterization and flow sheet design
Independent verification and certification of results by Certimin in
Lima
Integration of metallurgical outcomes into processing and toll-milling
planning
Alignment of processing parameters with access, permits, and
operational sequencing
Continued advancement toward initial processing activities targeted
for late 2026 or early 2027
Why This Matters to Investors
For investors, metallurgy is one of the most important technical
de-risking steps on the path to processing and cash flow. Positive,
independently verified metallurgical results validate recovery
assumptions, confirm processing routes, and underpin economic
decision-making. At Maria Norte, this work directly supports Rio
Silver’s capital-efficient, third-party processing strategy by
reducing uncertainty before access and material movement begins. As
silver prices remain strong, projects that methodically de-risk
metallurgy while preserving a low-capex development model are
increasingly well positioned to convert geological potential into
realizable value.
