Red Rock Resources plc
("Red Rock" or the "Company")
Update
5 September 2016
Further to the announcement of 16 August 2016, Red Rock
announces an update in relation to payments from the Company's
Shoats Creek Field in Beauregard Parish, Louisiana and in relation
to the sale of the Company's interest in the El Limon gold mine,
Colombia.
Highlights:
-- US$6,135.39 now paid to Red Rock from first gold royalty
payment from Colombia Milling Ltd ("CML"), covering 2 months to 30
June 2016
-- US$225,000 from CML now received as instalment payment for 2015 sale of Colombian assets
-- In relation to the US$1,000,000 Promissory Note from CML held
by Red Rock, where Red Rock has served notice of its intention to
convert, the parties have met and negotiations continue in order to
seek a resolution prior to arbitration
Red Rock Chairman Andrew Bell comments: "We have in the last
month received initial payments of both oil production revenue
share at Shoats Creek and gold royalties from CML. These are
significant milestones for us. To these income flows, which we
expect to increase significantly once full operation is achieved,
we anticipate in due course the addition of a third income stream
from dividends on our interest in manganese producer Jupiter Mines
Ltd.
As stated before, we consider that under the terms of the
agreements with CML, conversion to listed shares of the
US$1,000,000 CML Note due 2018 was triggered earlier this year, and
we served notice of this. CML has challenged Red Rock's right to
convert but following a meeting of the parties on 30(th) August has
indicated to us that it expects to make an offer of early repayment
of the Note. Depending on the terms on offer, Red Rock may not,
therefore, need to initiate the arbitration process.
Red Rock continues action to protect its rights in Kenya."
Further Information:
In May 2015 Red Rock completed the sale of its Colombian assets
to CML for a consideration comprising US$1,000,000, payable in
three instalments, a further US$1,000,000 in the form of a
Promissory Note due 2018 (but convertible into listed stock in the
event that CML or a related entity owning the El Limon mine
obtained a public listing), and US$3,000,000 in royalties (the
first US$2,000,000 of which is payable quarterly at 3%). The
payment made in August 2016 was the final instalment payment. The
royalty payment made in May 2016 was the first royalty payment, and
covers a two month period to the end of the June quarter (rather
than being calculated for the three months to the end of July 2016
and paid in September as Red Rock had expected). Future royalty
payments will cover calendar quarters, with the next payment due by
30 November 2016.
