from Goma Unrest
Rome Resources Plc (AIM: RMR), the
DRC-focused tin explorer, announces that its operations and on-site
activities remain unaffected by the recent developments in the city
of Goma. As a precautionary measure, the Company has relocated its
field operations, including helicopter support, to Bukavu. Bukavu

Goma.
Rome's drilling activities are
continuing as planned, with three rigs currently operational and
drilling across the Mont Agoma and Kalayi prospects, also situated
200 kilometres from Goma. A fourth drill rig is undergoing routine
repairs and operations remain as scheduled. Rome is in the process
of reviewing drill results from a number of holes at Kalayi, with
an update anticipated in the coming days.
Paul Barrett, Chief Executive Officer of Rome Resources Plc,
commented: "Our exploration programme
is progressing steadily across our licences and we remain committed
to advancing our projects in a safe and responsible manner. The
well-being of our employees and contractors is our primary
consideration, and we are closely monitoring the situation in Goma,
while maintaining open lines of communication with our local
team."
