    Update - Mt Alfred and Mkushi


    Dated: 11 August 2008

    Red Rock Resources plc ("Red Rock" or the "Company") the mineral exploration and development company focused on advancing iron ore,
uranium and manganese projects in Australia and East Africa, announces that it has engaged Haines Survey Pty Ltd to conduct a gravity survey
of the Mt Alfred iron ore tenement in Western Australia.

    The programme, which has been in progress for two weeks, and is expected to last up to a further four weeks, covers the targets tested
by earlier sampling, with some 2700 stations measured at 50m intervals along lines with a total length of over 120 kilometres set 200m
apart, and with a broadly east-west orientation. The purpose of the programme is to identify the main zones of iron mineralization and
identify targets for drilling.

    The Company continues to pursue opportunities to develop its manganese interests in Zambia, and has also entered into an agreement on
8th August 2008 with Mr Jazzman Chikwakwa, the holder of prospecting license PLLS 241/1 at Mkushi, Zambia, whereby the Company will have a
period of up to 12 months in which to investigate further the property and will have the right at any time in that period to purchase an 80%
interest in the license.

    The license, with a calculated area of 325.666 sq km, extends eastward from the eastern side of the Company's small scale mining license
at Mkushi and up to the Congo border. Some sampling and test work has already been carried out in 2007 by the Company on this area, which
appears to contain extensions along strike of the manganese mineralisation found on the Company's license. The license may also be
prospective for other minerals.
