RiskMetrics Group Recommends Shareholders Vote in Favour of the Acquisition of Silverstone by Silver Wheaton

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - May 5, 2009) - Silverstone Resources Corp. ("Silverstone") (TSX VENTURE:SST) is pleased to announce that RiskMetrics Group (formerly Institutional Shareholders Services), Canada's leading independent proxy advisory firm, has recommended that its clients holding Silverstone shares, including investment firms, pension funds, mutual funds and other fiduciaries throughout Canada, the U.S. and the world, vote FOR the previously announced proposed acquisition of Silverstone by Silver Wheaton Corp. ("Silver Wheaton") by way of plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

In making its recommendation, RiskMetrics noted that the exchange ratio provided for under the plan of arrangement is at a premium and that market prices have maintained an upward trend since the announcement of the proposed acquisition on March 12, 2009.

"We are very pleased that, following an independent review, RiskMetrics has recommended that Silverstone shareholders vote FOR the proposed acquisition of Silverstone Resources by Silver Wheaton," said Darren Pylot, President and Chief Executive Officer of Silverstone. "The proposed acquisition would give Silverstone shareholders ownership in the largest silver streaming company in the world, significant trading liquidity and a strong balance sheet."

The plan of arrangement must be approved by not less than two-thirds of the votes cast by shareholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting of Silverstone Shareholders scheduled to be held at 2:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on Tuesday, May 19, 2009 at the offices of Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP, Suite 2600, Three Bentall Centre, 595 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia. Shareholders are reminded that the deadline for receiving proxies is 2:00 p.m. (Vancouver time) on May 14, 2009.

Shareholders with questions about the Plan of Arrangement or the process for submitting proxies are encouraged to call Kingsdale Shareholder Services Inc., toll free in North America at 1-866-581-0506 or 1-416-867-2272 outside of North America.
