ASX Price and Volume Query

5 January 2011 Via e-lodgement ASX Price and Volume Query Range Resources Ltd ("the Company") received a query from the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX") today in relation to the recent increase in the Company's share price. The Company's response to the ASX noted that it is not aware of any information concerning it, that has not been announced and which, if known, could be an explanation for recent trading in the securities of the Company. The Company also noted that it is aware that it was recently rated by a sharemarket commentator in the UK as a `stock to watch' in 2011, and that this appears to have resulted in significant investor interest and a rise in its share price on the AIM market. The Company also noted, as previously announced, that it is progressing towards the commencement of mobilisation of drilling operations in Georgia in early 2011 and is due to complete a Helium survey mid/late January 2011 over the top three rated drillable projects. The Company will provide the market with material updates as and when available.
