Update on Burkina Faso and Ivory Coast

5 August 2025

Red Rock Resources Plc, the natural resource exploration and development company with interests in gold, base metals, battery metals, and hydrocarbons principally in Africa and Australia announces an update on the Company's activities in Burkina Faso and Ivory Coast.

The Company has signed a contract with Le Bureau des Mines et de la Géologie du Burkina (BUMIGEB)  under which BUMIGEB will (1) undertake over a period of two months a 1:50000 outcrop and geological mapping of the entirety of the Company's Boulon gold exploration licence in the vicinity of  the regional centre of Banfora, and (2) carry out rock chip sampling.

The work will be carried out in conjunction with the Company's geologists who have been working on site and have now been joined by the team from BUMIGEB.

BUMIGEB has provided in addition quotations for 2,000m and 4,000m of auger drilling on the licence, and it is intended that as the mapping programme advances the Company will contract for an auger drilling programme which will feed into the planned test production work.

Red Rock Chairman Andrew Bell comments: "It was necessary to begin timely work on the licence to comply with conditions imposed on our subsidiary as licensee. Another consideration was that the high degree of interest in this licence had led to an increase in artisanal activity, some externally funded and involving the use of yellow goods. Within the last two months the Government has cracked down on illegal activity and these contractors have left. While they are absent, and during the wet weather, we have an opportunity to establish activity and presence in all key areas. We welcome our partnership with BUMIGEB, who bring great local experience and connections, and we welcome the opportunity this gives for us and our work partners to develop our joint capabilities.

We continue to assess which assets are non-core to the Company's future operations, and are pursuing a sale transaction, where we have already been paid for a short exclusivity, in Ivory Coast." 

In the Ivory Coast, the Company assessed three serious approaches for purchase or partnership of part or all of its tenement package The Company yesterday received a AUD60,000 exclusivity fee giving a proposed acquirer of Ivory Coast assets a 30 day exclusivity.
