XRF Tin Mineralisation Results

Rome Resources Plc (AIM: RMR) is pleased to advise that Niton XRF portable ("XRF") analyser results taken from core samples collected at its Kalayi prospect ("Kalayi") located in the North Kivu province in the Democratic Republic of Congo ("DRC") have indicated tin mineralisation in drill holes KBDD005 and KBDD006. Kalayi is part of the Company's Bisie North Projects, which, also includes the Mont Agoma and Mont Agoma Northwest prospects.

Highlights

XRF Results

• KBDD005: Handheld XRF analyses of samples collected from a core slot cut defined a high grade zone over 1.5m, with a maximum grade 3.1% Sn.
• KBDD006: Handheld XRF analyses of samples from a core slot cut defined two zones of tin; 10m with a maximum grade of 5.3% Sn, and 8m with a maximum grade of 0.5% Sn.
• KBDD007: A narrow zone of near surface tin mineralisation was intersected (allowing for typical pinching and swelling along the mineralised structure).

Current Operations

• KBDD009: Currently drilled to 62.5m deep, targeting the significant mineralisation intersected at depth in KBDD006.
• MADD016: Currently drilled to 46m deep, intersecting a gossanous zone with quartz veining and anomalous tin in the bottom 3m.
• KBDD010: Currently collared to test the high-grade tin in soil anomaly to the south of the current drilling.
• A fourth diamond drill rig is in process of being mobilised and expected on site within two weeks. It is anticipated that the fourth diamond drill rig will commence drilling at Mont Agoma which has to date seen minimal drilling during the current campaign.

Paul Barrett, Chief Executive Officer of Rome Resources Plc, commented:

"We are extremely encouraged by the results received from the XRF analyser as, although not certified, they represent further confirmation that our licence area contains significant, high-grade tin mineralisation. We continue to progress the drilling programme, with the fourth diamond drill rig currently being mobilised, which will accelerate operations across our identified prospects."

"Our team has a wealth of experience developing tin projects within the DRC, and we are looking forward to drawing on their expertise as drilling and testing continues at the Company's Bisie North Project. We are committed to updating our investors regularly as the programme continues, and we look forward to sharing certified assay results in due course."
