All holes were drilled at a -55 degrees angle on an azimuth
bearing of 270 degrees. Diamond drill hole length varied
between 260m and 374m. Holes DDF-011, DDF-013 and DDF-020 did
not intersect gold mineralization.

Visible gold was observed within white quartz veins in drill logs DDF-010, DDF-012, DDF-014, DDF-015, DDF-016, DDF-017, DDF-018 and DDF-019 that resemble in places multiple sub-parallel stockworks. Holes were targeted beneath a north-south trend of old artisinal workings with early diamond drill results (DDF-002 to DDF-008) reporting significant intersections of 46.65 g/t gold over 2.0 metres, and 4.2 g/t gold over 12.0 metres. A map of the drill collar locations is attached below and additional maps and sections are available on the company website www.rockridgecapitalcorp.com.

The current drilling programme has completed 87 Reverse Circulation (RC) and 36 Diamond Drill (DD) holes totalling 8,215m (RC) and 10,729m (DD) since the start of the campaign.

A total of 9,860m of RC drilling has been planned and is currently being drilled on geochemical anomalies in the Digan North (62 holes), Digan Central (19 holes) and Digan South areas (20 holes), 7 km west of the main Fatou artisinal workings.

Six planned diamond drill holes will be drilled in the Finiko area, 8 km SE of Fatou, based on previous historical soil anomalies and limited RAB drilling. The results of both the RC and DD programmes will give valuable information on lithological type, mineralisation, host rocks, geological contacts, thus facilitating the recognition of discrete conductive features (eg. graphites) that the upcoming VTEM geophysical survey may pick up.

The helicopter-borne VTEM electromagnetic and magnetic survey will be flown in July 2011 on a 100m east-west regional spacing over the entire prospect area and will improve the geological and structural framework of the project area and guide optimum target selection based on surveys run in Mali to date.

Mr. Peter Camden Smith is the Qualified Person for the Company under NI 43-101. Mr. Camden-Smith (M.Sc., G.D.Eng., M.B.L., Pr.Sci.Nat) is a professional geologist with more than 30 years experience. Mr. Camden Smith replaces Mr. Lorne Warner, P. Geo, who was the Qualified Person for the Company under NI 43-101 up until June 2011.

All samples were collected on site and sent to ALS-Chemex in Bamako for analysis. The company inserts a blank and requests a duplicate sample be run in every batch of 20 samples. In addition, the lab inserts in-house blanks, standards, and duplicates with each shipment. Data that falls outside the control limits are checked and repeated as necessary. An average grade of the original and the duplicate samples is used where it is applicable, and a cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t is used as a general rule. The current boreholes are orientated based on a base line. In addition, the half core closest to the sampler is taken after cutting the core, except where there is visible gold. Given the high nugget effects observed in the difference in grades between the original and duplicate samples of high grade intersections (i.e. above 50 g/t) a recommendation has been made to investigate the most reliable method of achieving representative results for this kind of deposit. It is noted that in geostatistical evaluations on Birrimian gold deposits with similar affinities to the Fatou Gold Project a top cut off ranging between 30 g/t to 250 g/t is applied.
