Alex Black, President and CEO of Rio2 comments, “We are pleased to list our shares on the Lima Stock Exchange as we advance the development of our Cerro Maricunga Project in Chile. Listing on the Lima Stock Exchange is part of the Company’s strategy of providing Latin American investors with the possibility to invest within Latin America and participate in the Company’s growth with projects in the region.”


The BVL listing follows the CAD 10 million bought deal financing that Rio2 completed on May 31, 2018. A portion of the financing was placed with sophisticated investors in Peru by Kallpa Securities S.A.B.


The BVL was founded in 1860 and has nearly 280 listed companies that represent approximately a market capitalization of US $165 billion. The BVL is the most active mining stock exchange in Latin America.

The BVL is also a participant of the Mercado Integrado Latinoamericano (“MILA”). Through MILA, the companies listed on the BVL have a higher international exposure, due to the integration with equity markets in Colombia, Chile and Mexico.
