Arizona Tribune - Rio Grande Resources Uplists to OTCQB Venture Market in the United States

The OTCQB Venture Market is recognized by the US Securities and Exchange Commission as an established public market providing public information for analysis and valuation of securities. It is designed for developing and entrepreneurial companies in the U.S. and abroad, applying standards that promote price transparency and facilitate public disclosure. To be eligible for OTCQB, companies must be current in their financial reporting and undergo an annual verification and management certification process, including meeting a minimum bid price and other financial conditions. These compliance and quality standards provide investors improved transparency for making informed investment decisions and for determining the public market price when registering securities for resale for international companies.

Jason Barnard, Chief Executive Officer of Rio Grande, comments: "Graduating to the OTCQB represents an important milestone for Rio Grande as we continue to execute on our growth strategy. This uplisting enhances our visibility with U.S. investors, improves liquidity, and reflects our commitment to operating with a high standard of transparency and governance. We believe this will further support our efforts to build long-term value for our shareholders."
