Vancouver, Canada - (September 26, 2014) Rio Cristal Resources Corporation (TSXV:RCZ) ("Rio Cristal" or the "Company") announced today that the previously announced consolidation (the "Consolidation") of its common shares (the "Common Shares") on the basis of (1) post-Consolidation Common Share for every ten (10) pre-Consolidation Common Shares will be effective as of September 29, 2014 and trading of the Common Shares will commence on a consolidated basis on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") at the opening of trading on such date.

The Consolidation has been approved by the TSXV, and a related bulletin was issued by the TSXV on September 26, 2014.
