Rio Grande Mining Corp. (TSXV.RGV) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it intends to proceed immediately with the consolidation of its shares. The five-old for one-new share consolidation will result in the number of issued and outstanding common shares of the company being reduced from 18,402,689 common shares without par value to 3,680,538 common shares without par value. Outstanding stock options and share purchase warrants will also be adjusted by the consolidation ratio and the respective exercise prices adjusted accordingly. The Consolidation will give the Company greater competitiveness in the marketplace and make the Company's securities more attractive to a wider audience of potential investors.
