Rio or Río, the Portuguese and Spanish words for river, may refer to:
Tinto is a hill in South Lanarkshire, Scotland. Tinto is an outlying hill of the Southern Uplands, comprising little more than this one top, which stands on the west bank of the River Clyde, some 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) west of Biggar. The peak is also called "Tinto Tap", with the name Tinto possibly deriving from the Scottish Gaelic word teinnteach, meaning "fiery", which may refer to its ancient past as a look out beacon.
An old Scots children's rhyme tells of the "kist in the mist" at "Tintock tap", kist being the Scots word for "chest".
It is accessible for walking (moderate to difficult) and is one of the premier locations for hanggliding and paragliding. Tinto is located near the small villages of Thankerton and Wiston.
Tinto is also the venue for one of the most popular hill running races in Scotland which is held annually in November.
Tinto Hill was painted by John Pairman in 1841.

The Río Tinto (red river) is a river in southwestern Spain that originates in the Sierra Morena mountains of Andalusia. It flows generally south-southwest, reaching the Gulf of Cádiz at Huelva. This unearthly, reddish river in southwestern Spain is unlike any you've ever seen before. The water gets its coloration from iron dissolved in the water, and is notable for being extremely acidic. This may not sound like a suitable place to find life, but living in the bizarre waters of Rio Tinto are extremophile aerobic microorganisms that feed on the iron and sulphide minerals plentiful in the river. Since ancient times, a site along the river has been mined for copper, silver, gold, and other minerals. In approximately 3,000 BC, Iberians and Tartessians began mining the site, followed by the P...

Watch the rebuilding of the mine access road, in this time-lapse video. Months ahead of schedule, Rio Tinto Kennecott reopened its main 'highway,' called the mine access road, within the Bingham Canyon Mine. Its width is greater than the 12 lanes of I-15, and it winds nearly three quarters of a mile within the mine joining the top to the bottom. Destroyed in the 165-million-ton April landslide, its restoration was a priority for everyone at Kennecott.

Workers at the mine have been locked out of their workplace for nearly two months after contract negotiations with Rio Tinto hit a stalemate. We talk to one of the locked-out workers and a spokesman of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union.

Global mining giant Rio Tinto has reportedly shelved a 20 billion dollar iron ore project in Guinea, following a sustained slump in the price of the metal. The miner had been seeking financing for the Simandou project, even after a one-point-one billion-dollar write-down in February. Last month Rio Tinto submitted a feasibility study to the Guinean government. But global oversupply of iron ore that has depressed prices has made the project not viable. Simandou would have comprised an iron ore mine in central Guinea, a railway and a deep-water port on the West African country's Atlantic Coast. At full production, the project would have generated about 7-point-5 billion dollars in revenue.

The Democratic Republic of Congo in Africa is one of the world’s most resource-rich countries. A wide range of rare minerals can be found here in abundance, all commanding high prices in world commodity markets. Diamonds for jewellery, tantalum, tungsten and gold for electronics; uranium used in power generation and weaponry and many others. Congo has copious deposits of raw materials that are in high demand internationally but remains one of the poorest countries in the world. From colonisation, with the horrors of slavery and other atrocities, to a turbulent and equally brutal present in which militant groups control the mines, Congo’s richness in natural resources has brought nothing but misery. Referred to as “conflict minerals”, these riches leave only a trail of death, destruction ...

Documentary about the world's largest producer of the natural diamonds - the Argyle diamond mine in the Kimberley Ranges, North Western Australia, and it's relationship with the local indigenous peoples (Argyle Mine Lease). Offers an interesting insight on the potential benefits a mining project can have on the community (when the focus can be often just on the environmental damage).
Du schaust mich immer auf so eine Weise an
Dass ich genau all deine Gedanken lesen kann
Und darum weiß ich was du mit mir machen willst
Das du von mir ganz bestimmte Sachen willst
Du kommst zu mir und spielst mit mir
Ich komm zu dir und spiel mit dir
Alles was wir tun ist eine Explosion
Alles um uns herum leuchtet schon
Ich schneide Grimassen mir wird heiß
Du wirst vor Freude im Gesicht ganz weiß
Dann wirst du rot und möchtest lieber gehen
Doch ich hab das kleine Zeichen in deinen Augen gesehen
Du kommst zu mir und spielst mit mir
Ich komm zu dir und spiel mit dir
Alles was wir tun ist eine Explosion
Alles um uns herum leuchtet schon
Du traust dich nichts zu sagen
Und ich bin wie du ganz still
Mein Herz schmilzt
Weil ich weiß dass du spielen willst
Ich bin dein Raumschiff
Ich bin dein All
Schieß mich los
Ich bin dein Ball
