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 that it has placed 509,804,000 new ordinary shares ("Placing Shares") by a placing at 0.051 pence per share, raising a total of £260,000.04 before expenses ("Placing"). The Placing was arranged by Clear Capital Markets Limited.

The Placing proceeds will be applied to bringing gold assets in Burkina Faso to production, in accordance with the announcement of 27 February 2024, and other working capital purposes.

Red Rock CEO Andrew Bell comments: "We are moving forward with production and pre-production activities in Burkina Faso, in order to start alluvial production and testwork at Bilbale. We are working to a tight schedule for operations to start within weeks, subject to the usual caveats. We continue to work with the programme and costings outlined in our announcement of 27 February 2024.

In the DRC, we continue to expect a quick resolution."    

Admission to Trading on AIM and Total Voting Rights

Application is being made for 509,804,000 new ordinary shares to be admitted to trading on AIM, the admission of which it is expected on or around 18 April 2024.

All of the ordinary shares have equal voting rights and none of the ordinary shares are held in Treasury. The total number of voting rights in the Company will therefore be 4,058,050,811.
