Red Rock Resources plc

Unaudited half-yearly results for the six months ended 31 December 2024

Red Rock Resources plc ("Red Rock" or "the Company"), the natural resources investment, exploration, and development company with interests in manganese, gold, copper and cobalt, and other materials, announces its half-yearly results for the six months ended 31 December 2024.

Chairman's Statement

The statement we released with the Final Results for the year to 30^th June 2024, and the statement released with the interim results a year ago, tell a story, in relation to our interests in the DRC, that is consistent but has still not advanced to the anticipated conclusion.

In the DRC some local parties expected to take the benefits of sale of our majority owned copper-cobalt asset through a disposition of which we were unaware. We challenged this, and as we have comprehensive records to support our position have always assumed that we would eventually prevail. We had early victories in court cases relating to the $5,000,000m already paid and our share thereof, and then went to arbitration in relation to our share of the $15,000,000 still held on behalf of the vendors by the buyer.

We are now at the point where the judgement is near the point of publication, and retain the same degree of confidence. Because of the slowness of procedures in Kinshasa, we are not writing today the report we expected to be writing, but the management of the Company is every day pursuing the matter with all possible commitment and assiduity.

The direct consequences of a favourable outcome in the DRC would be potentially large in relation to the current value of the Company. The indirect consequences, in the form of opening the door to further proceedings, could also be large. It is also likely that our ability to work on high level projects in the DRC would be enhanced, and our ability to advance other projects of the Company would become greater.

Conversely, a failure, or a further long delay, in the DRC, neither of which appear likely to the management, would leave the Company's short term finances under significant strain as the level of current liabilities now reflects the expectation of an early award. Immediate action would have to be taken to dispose of some non-core assets, and other action taken to restructure or convert some of the Company's convertible and debt securities and/or raise money on what could be dilutive terms. The Company's convertible and debt holders have been strongly supportive of the Company, and we are discussing with the loan note holders the terms of an extension to the Convertible Loan Notes. A failure to generate sufficient funds by disposals or external funding might put in question the Company's ability to continue operations.

Current liabilities include an amount of approximately £644,000 due to Power Metal Resources PLC (the "Vendor") in respect of the Company's purchase of a minority stake in Red Rock's assets in Australia, where the Company continues exploration activities and the pursuit of potential capital transactions. Red Rock and the Vendor are in discussions to set a mutually agreeable timing of this payment.

The Company is also discussing a possible transaction or transactions in relation to its Burkina Faso gold assets. Meanwhile some of our gold production equipment is in process of being released from customs in Burkina Faso and a progress report on local plans and operations will then be released.

Of the two principal investment interests of the Company, the royalty interest in the El Limon gold asset in Colombia held by Soma Gold may start paying again after this quarter as Soma's production increases and is expected to require use of the El Limon mill. Elephant Oil Inc, a private onshore oil company active in West Africa, is nearing close of a funding transaction shortly that would enable it to advance its highly prospective West African onshore oil projects.

An operational update will be released in April, which will contain more information on the DRC arbitration and on other developments.
