Rockfire Resources plc

("Rockfire" or the "Company")NED appointment prepares ROCK for development

Rockfire Resources plc (LON: ROCK), the base metal, gold, and critical mineral exploration company, is pleased to announce that a new board member has been appointed to the Rockfire board. After an extensive search for suitably qualified and experienced mining executives to lead Rockfire through the development stages of Molaoi, Rockfire is delighted to welcome Mr. Steven Hunt to the board of directors.

Steven's appointment strengthens the technical and governance capability of the board at a time when strong technical leadership is paramount to successfully steer a project towards production. As Rockfire heads towards the scoping/feasibility stage of development at Molaoi, it is prudent for the board and management to prepare for the additional skills that will be required within the Company.

Steven is the current Chair of the Australasian Joint Ore Resource Committee ("JORC") and has been for the last 11 years.

He previously worked for Rio Tinto continuously for more than 26 years, including 9 years as its Chief Advisor Orebody Knowledge and 5 years as Chief Advisor Resources and Reserves, both global roles. During his lengthy career with Rio Tinto, Steven spent 3 years as the Geology Superintendent of the 7.8-million-ounce Kelian Gold Mine in Indonesia and 6 years as the Mine Geology Manager for the 34-million-ounce Lihir Gold Mine in Papua New Guinea.

The board is delighted that Steven has joined Rockfire. Management is advancing the Molaoi project with a planned upgrade to the resources from Inferred to Indicated status, followed immediately by scoping and feasibility studies into underground mining at Molaoi.

The company is eagerly anticipating the approval of its planned resource upgrade drilling program by the Greek government. Recent changes to European Union legislation regarding the approval of environmental applications has resulted in the approval process taking longer than anticipated. The market will be informed when our drilling permit is approved.

The following information is disclosed pursuant to Schedule two, paragraph (g) of the AIM Rules for Companies.

Mr Steven John Hunt, aged 64 is currently a director of Hunt Geoservices (Australia). He has not held any other directorships in the last 5 years.

There is no other information required to be disclosed under Schedule two, paragraph (g) of the AIM Rules for Companies.
