Red Rock is currently awaiting the outcome of arbitration in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The company stands to gain $2.5m of the $5m paid at the time of the sale, plus $2m
damages and interest.

The arbitration, which also involves the buyer, includes Red Rock’s rights in relation to the $15m unpaid balance of the sale.
