Resource Star Limited - Rights Issue

 

Date: [26] March 2012

 

Red Rock Resources plc ("Red Rock" or the "Company"), a mining and exploration company with a producing gold mine in Colombia; Kenyan gold and Greenland iron ore exploration projects; and interests in steel feed, uranium and rare earths, announces that its associate company, Resource Star Limited (ASX:RSL)("RSL"), has today finalised its non-renounceable Entitlement Offer (the "Offer"). In total, 41,928,182 new shares were issued under the Offer raising gross proceeds of AUS$ 838,563. Red Rock subscribed for 13,224,872 new shares under the Offer amounting to AUS$ 264,497, settled by the extinguishment of debt, and 18,098,810 shares subscribed for under the Underwriting Agreement and amounting to AUS$ 361,976.20

 

Prior to the Offer, Red Rock held 13,984,872 shares in RSL and now holds 45,908,554 shares in RSL, being 46.44 per cent of the enlarged issued share capital of RSL (totaling 98,856,364 ordinary shares).

 

A substantial shareholder of RSL has committed to taking up the balance of 15,000,000 RSL shares unsubscribed under the rights issue, at a cost of AU$300,000, on 24 April 2012. At that point it is expected that Red Rock will hold 40.32 per cent of the enlarged issued share capital of RSL.

About Resource Star Ltd

RSL is a publicly-listed Australian company whose principal interests are uranium and specialty metals exploration assets in Malawi, the Northern Territory, and Western Australia.

RSL's main projects are the Joint Ventures with Globe Metals and Mining (ASX:GBE)("Globe") on the Livingstonia Uranium Project and Machinga Rare Earths Project in Malawi, the 100%-owned Edith River Uranium Project in the Northern Territory and the Spinifex Joint Venture with Thundelarra Resources (ASX:THX) in Western Australia. The exploration at Livingstonia is managed by RSL, while Globe is running the Machinga programme. RSL has a right to earn-in to 80% of the Livingstonia Project, which has been the subject of over 12,000m drilling and has a JORC compliant Inferred Resource of 7.7 million tonnes averaging 270 ppm U3O8 at a cut-off of 150ppm U3O8.

Reason for the Underwriting

As announced on 24 January 2012, Red Rock has agreed to dispose of its interest in Cue Resources Ltd ("Cue"), a Canadian company with uranium interests in Paraguay, to Uranium Energy Corp., a United States based uranium exploration and production company. As part of the rationalisation of its uranium investment interests, where negative sentiment towards the uranium sector was inhibiting the actions of both Cue and RSL, Red Rock expects to re-invest a proportion of the proceeds of the disposal of Cue into RSL. This will create a stronger company able to explore its portfolio of assets and potentially to look at other opportunities within the mining sector. In addition, the refinancing of RSL may itself improve sentiment towards the company and in potentially increasing its shareholding in RSL at a historically low price Red Rock expects to make a profit.
