(“Rockfire” or the “Company”)
Interim Results

Rockfire Resources plc(LON: ROCK), the base metal, precious metal, and critical mineral exploration company, is pleased to announce its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2026. The total comprehensive loss attributable to the shareholders of the Company for the six months ended 30 June 2026 was £1,126,157, an increase of £498,933 from the comparable period to 30 June 2025. The increase in total comprehensive lossprincipally reflects the increase in expenditure during the period, including increased activity associated with the Company’s drilling and project development activities.

Rockfire is actively pursuing the development of the Molaoi zinc/germanium/silver/lead deposit in Greece. A transition from the Inferred JORC category to the Indicated JORC category of resource remains in progress. Several factors have resulted in this process taking longer than expected, including extensively broken ground conditions, a scarcity of experienced drillers and a shortage of available drilling rigs throughout Europe. Rockfire is addressing these issues by acquiring its own drilling rig to provide the Company with improved productivity from the drilling schedule.

Drilling to upgrade the resource and to increase the resource to the north is expected to continue until at least the end of the 2026 calendar year. Several long lead-time surveys have commenced, including an Ecological Study, a Hydrology Study, and comminution tests. Each of these activities will feed directly into a pre-feasibility study, scheduled to commence in the second quarter of 2027.

PROJECT PORTFOLIO SUMMARY

Molaoi Zinc-Lead-Silver-Germanium Deposit, Peloponnese, Greece

Diamond drilling to upgrade the Inferred Resource to Indicated status resumed after the Christmas/New Year break on 13 January 2026, as scheduled.

Most drill holes drilled to their intended depth so far at Molaoi by Rockfire has intersected potentially economic grades and conceptually mineable widths of zinc/silver/lead and germanium.

Results for hole HMO-010 were announced to the market on 17 February 2026. Multiple high-grade zinc and germanium lodes were intersected including 1.2m @ 5.5% Zn and 18g/t Ag from 97.50m depth, including 0.30m @ 54 g/t Ge. A second lode averaging 5.60m wide graded 1.3% Zn, 16g/t Ag from 195.45m depth and a third lode 4.00m wide returned 5.1% Zn, 23g/t Ag and 15g/t Ge from 256.50m depth.

Strong germanium grades were still being intersected all the way through the southern zones of the resource area. Results returned from hole HMO-011 include 2.00m @ 5.13% Zn, 20.2g/t Ge, 27.4g/t Ag and 1.33% Pb. This interval commences at 36.10m below surface, with the highest individual assay in this interval being 1.10m @ 9.12% Zn and 30.0g/t Ge.

Hole HMO-012 returned results from a 2m wide zone at 67.23m depth which assayed 4.3% Zn, 20.5g/t Ge and 23.7g/t Ag. A second, 1m wide lode at 76.00m depth returned 59.0g/t Ag and 0.2% Cu. A narrow (0.15m) interval at 119.85m depth intersected 1.7% Cu, which is the second-highest copper value ever recorded at Molaoi.

Hole HMO-013 intersected a 1.20m wide zone grading 32.2ppm Ag, 1.2% Pb, 4.86% Zn and 17.9g/t Ge. This zone occurs at 47.00m depth.

Hole HMO-014 encountered slow and difficult drilling conditions. This hole had a target depth of more than 380.00m but was suspended at 195.80m due to caving of the hole and will be re-drilled later.

The Rockfire Board advised the market on 10 April 2026 that it had committed to the acquisition of the Company's own drilling rig.

On 18 May 2026, results from drill hole HMO-015 were announced to the market, with a headline interval of 11.90m @ 8.8% Zn, 49.0g/t Ag and 25.2g/t Ge from 354.90m downhole depth. A second lode of 3.02m @ 7.5% Zn, 40.9g/t Ag, 19.0g/t Ge and 1.3% Pb was encountered at a depth of 386.28m from surface.

Analytical laboratory results from hole HMO-016 include 0.76m @ 22.4% Zn, 187g/t Ag, 8.8% Pb and 34.6g/t Ge at 314.18m downhole depth, 1.08m @ 8.2% Zn, 42.5g/t Ag, 1.6% Pb and 22g/t Ge from 407.11m downhole depth and 4.50m @ 3.0% Zn, 20.7g/t Ag, 0.9% Pb and 20g/t Ge from 417.95m downhole depth.

The results of an engineering appraisal of the historical underground mining access at the Company's Molaoi project in Greece were announced on 11 June 2026. The conclusion of the appraisal was that the underground mine development is in good condition and is most likely to be capable of reuse for future access. The steel support sets visible from the entrance remain undeformed, with no evidence of structural failure or rockfall-related damage.

Lighthouse Au-Ag deposit, Queensland, Australia

On 5 January 2023, Rockfire entered into a binding agreement with Sunshine Metals Limited (ASX:SHN) to farm-in to Lighthouse and for Sunshine to earn up to a 75% interest in the tenement. On Sunshine achieving 75% ownership, Rockfire shall have the right to elect to contribute 25% of on-going expenditure, or to convert to a 1.5% Net Smelter Royalty (NSR).

On 30 April 2026, Sunshine announced the acquisition of the Mt Moss operation, including the operation’s gold crushing and grinding facility. At the same time, Sunshine also announced a AUD$22 million capital raising comprising a AUD$19 million two tranche placement and a share purchase plan to raise up to AUD$3 million.

Sunshine's strategy is to identify shallow (<50m), oxide gold resources for processing at the Mt Moss facility and the Company is rapidly evaluating the commercial potential of its multiple deposits, including Plateau. Plateau represents an advanced project with a near-surface, Inferred Resource totalling 49koz Au at 2.0 g/t Au.

Marengo Au/Ag/Cu deposit, Queensland, Australia

Eastern Resources Limited ("Eastern") entered into a binding farm-in agreement with Rockfire on 29 September 2025 (the "Farm-in"), which sees Eastern sole-funding the exploration at Marengo for the next 3 years, with funding being engaged on direct expenditure on the tenement.

An update on exploration activity at Marengo was provided to the Australian Stock Exchange by Eastern on 1 June 2026. In this update, initial fieldwork, including mapping and rock sampling had been completed.

Post 30 June 2026, results of this rock sampling were announced to the market on 9 July 2026. All samples returned anomalous to elevated levels of gold, confirming gold-silver rich mineralisation close to surface.

10Joint Ventures

Lighthouse JV

On 20 January 2023, the Company announced that it had entered into a joint venture (‘’JV’’) with Sunshine Metals Limited to advance the Plateau gold deposit in Queensland, Australia. Under the terms of the JV, Sunshine Metals Limited may earn up to a 75% interest in the Lighthouse Project tenements through funding exploration and development expenditure.

The JV includes the Lighthouse Project exploration permit tenement EPM25617 and the adjoining Kookaburra exploration permit tenement EPM26705 in Queensland. As at 30 June 2026 these tenements accounted for £1,532,475 (31 December 2025: £1,461,003) of the Group's intangible assets. As all expenditure on the tenements are capitalised, there were no losses or profits attributed to the tenements.

During the farm in period, Sunshine Gold Limited must keep the tenements in good order and meet all statutory reporting, rehabilitation and expenditure obligations.

As at 30 June 2026, Sunshine Metals Limited had incurred total expenditure of AUD$740,718 (excluding GST) across the project area. In July 2026, the parties agreed to extend the Stage 2 and Stage 3 expenditure deadlines to 19 March 2027 and 19 March 2028 respectively.

Marengo JV

Eastern Resources Limited ("Eastern") entered into a binding farm-in agreement with Rockfire on 29 September 2025 (the "Farm-in"), which sees Eastern sole-funding the exploration at Marengo for the next 3 years, with funding being engaged on direct expenditure on the tenement.

An update on exploration activity at Marengo was provided to the Australian Stock Exchange by Eastern on 1 June 2026. In this update, initial fieldwork, including mapping and rock sampling had been completed.

Post 30 June 2026, results of this rock sampling were announced to the market on 9 July 2026. All samples returned anomalous to elevated levels of gold, confirming gold-silver rich mineralisation close to surface.
