Red Rock Chairman Andrew Bell comments: "This first distribution repays most of the cost of developing the Tshipi manganese mine, Jupiter's principal asset. This very long life mine has established itself as one of the world's most important and competitive producers. With Jupiter's other assets, it has the potential to continue to drive Jupiter's value and having played a role in the development of Jupiter now for over ten years, we look forward to the next stages in its growth."
