June Quarter 2014 Activities and Cashflow Report

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Red Mountain Mining Ltd ("Red Mountain" or "the Company") continued to make significant progress during the June quarter towards realising the Company's dual strategy of completing a Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) and final permitting for the proposed mine development based on existing resources, and continuing exploration, to build the high grade gold resource base.
  • High grade drilling intersections and trenching results were produced at the Lobo prospect, from the South West Breccia (SWB) lode in the vicinity of the SWB resource and along strike to Trench 13 at the southwestern end of the exposed structure.Peak intersections from the SWB lode include:
    • LB109: 6.7m @ 11.6 g/t Au from 9.3m and 18m @ 6.85 g/t Au from 31m (ASX 7/5/14)
    • LB 110: 6m @ 7.16 g/t Au from 43m including 3m @ 11.5 g/t Au (ASX 7/5/14)
    • LB115: 5.35m @ 8.18 g/t Au from surface including 1m @ 18.5 g/t Au (ASX 10/6/14)
    • Trench 17: 19.4m @ 8.24 g/t Au including 5.05m @ 15.7 g/t Au (ASX 19/5/14)
    • Under Trench 13, LB 105: 0.65m @ 18.0 g/t Au from 10m (ASX 23/4/14)
  • A significant JORC 2012 compliant Mineral Resource upgrade was produced for Lobo prospect, including an 82% gold ounce increase to a total Indicated and Inferred figure of 604,000t at an average grade of 4.2 g/t Au, containing 82,000 ounces (oz) of gold, including SWB with Indicated Resources increased from 93% to 98% of a total 221,000t @ 6.3 g/t Au, containing 45,000oz of gold. The total Mineral Resource estimate for the entire Batangas Gold Project, including the Archangel prospect, now stands at an Indicated and Inferred total of 6.19mt @ 2.2 g/t Au, containing 444,000oz Au.
  • Final mine permitting applications submitted to the Philippines Government are progressing. These include permit submissions necessary to achieve Declaration of Mining Project Feasibility (DMPF) and Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC) for an expanded 10 year mining operation based on initially mining and processing the SWB resource on the already granted Lobo Mineral Production Sharing Agreement (MPSA – Philippines equivalent of a mining licence) then mining and transporting resources from the Archangel MPSA to be processed at the Lobo processing facility.
  • The Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) was commenced during the quarter, based on the outcomes of the Scoping Study released 30 March 2014. Appointments were made to commence the DFS with detailed surveying, larger scale metallurgical testing, geotechnical work, re-optimisation of planned mine developments and a residue storage options study in progress. The DFS remains on schedule for completion in December 2014.

Cautionary Statement: The Scoping Study referred to in this release is based on low level technical and economic assessments and is insufficient to support estimation of Ore Reserves or to provide assurance of an economic development case at this stage, or to provide certainty that the conclusions of the Scoping Study will be realised. The Scoping Study is partly based on Inferred Resources that comprise less than 10% of the total mining inventory. There is a low level of geological confidence associated with Inferred Mineral Resources and

there is no certainty that further exploration will result in the conversion of Inferred Mineral Resources to Indicated Mineral Resources or that the production target will be realised.

• The Company had $1.7 million cash and no debt at the end of the quarter.

Exploration Results

Exploration during the June quarter continued to focus on the outcropping portion of the SWB lode system, a 500m strike length window that is exposed before the structure passes under shallow dipping limestone to the southwest and continues to the northeast towards the Camo prospect (see Figure 2).

A total of 17 diamond drillholes for 958m of drilling were completed during the quarter.

Drilling and some trenching focused on the vicinity of the SWB resource with the objective of expanding and better defining the resource for a Mineral Resource upgrade prior to the DFS. Results generally confirmed the high grade and continuous nature of the SWB epithermal gold shoot and are summarised in Table's 1 and 2 below:

Drilling within the SWB corridor, in the vicinity of high grade trenches reported last quarter, confirmed the continuity of high grade mineralisation at Trench 13 where a high grade lode intersection (LB 105) of 0.65m @ 18 g/t Au from 10 metres downhole depth was produced directly down dip of Trench 13. Results previously announced from Trench 13 include 2.6m @ 28.6 g/t Au (ASX release 7 January 2014). This lode intersection remains open to the south where the lode structure passes under younger limestone (see Figure 2).

Five holes were completed on the Trench 7 (south west) side of Japanese Tunnel, producing a peak intersection at depth below Trench 20 (LB 103) of 1.5m @ 3.63 g/t Au from 38.7m downhole including

Table 3: South West Breccia extended drilling locations and results (ASX release 23 April 2014):

Soil sampling and surface rockchip sampling continues to test other targets, primarily focussed on the Lobo prospect area within the 15km of mapped lode systems of which only 1km strike has been effectively tested with drilling.

Of particular focus will be Signal target where previous rock chip float sampling by Mindoro Resources Ltd (pre 2012) produced results to 72.6 g/t Au and 42.6 g/t Au.

All new drilling and trenching intersections have been incorporated into a Mineral Resource upgrade, reported in accordance with JORC Code 2012, as detailed below.

Batangas Gold Project Mineral Resource Upgrade

On 30 June 2014 the Company released a JORC 2012 compliant Mineral Resource upgrade for the Batangas Gold Project that included an increase of 37,000oz, or an 82% increase in terms of gold ounces for the Lobo prospect, compared to the last, JORC 2004 Compliant, Mineral Resource released 30 January 2013. The Company also reviewed and reported the Archangel prospect Mineral Resource estimate in accordance with JORC 2012.

The Lobo Mineral Resource estimate now stands at a total Indicated and Inferred figure of: 604,000t at an average grade of 4.2 g/t gold, containing 82,000oz of gold. This includes a new resource estimate for SWB incorporating new drilling and trenching data, with Indicated Resources increased from 93% to 98% of a total 221,000t at an average grade of 6.3 g/t Au containing 45,000oz of gold.

ASX code: RMX COMPANY DIRECTORS CONTACT DETAILS Non-Executive Chairman Non-Executive Director Head Office

In addition to SWB, a maiden Mineral Resource estimate was released for Japanese Tunnel and West Drift (see Figure 2 for locations), both of which were drilled over the last 18 months.

The total Mineral Resource estimate for the entire Batangas Gold Project, including the Archangel prospect (Kay Tanda West and Kay Tanda Main zones, which remain unchanged) now stands at an Indicated and Inferred total of 6.19 million tonnes at an average grade of 2.2 g/t Au, containing 444,000oz Au.

The significant increase in resources at the Lobo prospect reflects the Company's continued focus on drilling high grade lode epithermal targets within the 15 kilometres (km) strike of mapped structures identified at Lobo, of which only 1km has been drill tested to a shallow depth to date.

The new Mineral Resources have been reported in accordance with the 2012 edition of the JORC Code, using a cut-off grade of 0.85g/t gold for potential open pit resources and a cut-off grade of 2 g/t gold for potential underground resources, limited to West Drift at this stage.

Mineral Resources were estimated with the assistance of Optiro, minerals industry consultants based in West Perth. Summaries of the JORC Code 2012 Lobo and Archangel Mineral Resource estimates are presented in the ASX release dated 30 June 2014 with Tables 1(a) and 1(b) summarising parameters, QA-QC and methodology .

Permitting Update

The Company's Philippines subsidiary company submitted the key permitting applications to the Philippines Government that are necessary to allow development, mining and processing of the gold mining inventory on the Lobo and Archangel granted MPSA's (Philippines equivalent of Mining Leases) at the Batangas Gold Project.

The permitting applications include the Declaration of Mining Project Feasibility report (DMPF), Exploration Report and the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) that, with other environmental permit applications, forms the submission for the grant of an Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC).

The DMPF seeks approval for an expanded 10 year mining operation that will initially focus on mining and processing the reported mining inventory from the SWB Mineral Resource, on the Lobo MPSA, then mining, transporting to Lobo and processing of the Kay Tanda West reported mining inventory, as detailed in the Company's ASX release of 20 March 2014. It is anticipated that additional resources from Kay Tanda (Main) then lower grade stockpiles will be mined, transported and processed out to year 10 of the operation.

ASX code: RMX COMPANY DIRECTORS CONTACT DETAILS Non-Executive Chairman Non-Executive Director Head Office

The Company is currently seeking the endorsement of two out of three key Local Government Units (LGU's) , including Barungay (township) level, Municipal level and Provincial level. Any revisions to the DMPF or EIS submissions based on the DFS will be re-submitted to the Government committee's assessing the permit applications by August 2014.

The objectives of the Company are to complete the DFS in parallel with progressing the project towards final permitting. Project financing options will be reviewed upon completion of the DFS and approval of the Company's board to advance to a Financial Investment Decision.

Definitive Feasibility Study Progress

The DFS was commenced based on the outcomes of the Batangas Gold Project Scoping Study released in the March quarter, that showed average life of mine C1 operating cost of A$769/oz (US$690/oz), a preproduction capital cost of A$16.7m (US$15m) and projected free cashflow of approximately A$40m after potential capital return in less than 14 months (at a gold price of A$1,500/oz, US$1350/oz, A$:US$ 0.90) over the initial 4.5 years of the Batangas Gold Project.

Perth based Como Engineers were appointed to manage the DFS, the metallurgical testing program and process engineering, with the objective of completing the DFS for the construction of a mining and processing operation at the Company's Batangas Gold Project by December 2014.

Como Engineers have considerable experience in taking gold mining projects through the study phases to final engineered design and construction and specialise in modular gold plants that may be constructed offsite and easily installed. Batangas City, 20km west of Lobo, is a centre for the construction of modular processing plants and preliminary investigation of suitable fabrication and construction sites is underway.

Perth based ALS Ltd have commenced testing of metallurgical composite samples representing both the Lobo (SWB) and Archangel (Kay Tanda West) mineral inventories.

The Perth office of ATC Williams are completing a study into residue disposal and storage options, including dry stacking and thickened residues, with the objective of providing a stable, lower risk residue storage option that may be progressively rehabilitated during the life of the operation.

Philippines based McDonald Surveys are completing detailed survey work of all planned operational areas.

New Zealand based RDCL have been contracted to complete geotechnical work, including pit slope determination and waste disposal site stability and hydrology.

Philippines based Crystal Sun Consulting will complete new mine optimisations and designs to generate a new mining schedule and ultimately define Ore Reserves based on the 30 June 2014 released and upgraded Mineral Resources.

Other appointments will be finalised for the second, design and engineering phase of the DFS, which includes process engineering, residue and waste storage design, infrastructure, financial modeling, site services and security.

The DFS remains on schedule to be completed by December 2014.

COMPANY STATUS AND OUTLOOK

Expenditure during the quarter ended 30 June 2014 totalled $1.4 million and included continued exploration activities and the commencement of the DFS and permitting requirements, in order to progress the dual objectives of developing the Batangas Gold Project and increasing the high grade Mineral Resource base.

Exploration and evaluation or "in the ground" expenditure of almost A$1.1 million represented 76% of total expenditure of $1.4 million for the June quarter.

The Company continues to focus on safe and efficient exploration and development activities in harmony with local communities and the environment. No lost time safety or environmental incidents occurred during the quarter.

Cash on hand at 30 June 2014 was A$1.7m with no debt.

About Red Mountain Mining Limited and the Batangas Gold Project

Red Mountain Mining (ASX: RMX) is primarily a gold explorer/developer and project acquisition company which listed on the ASX in September 2011. The Company's strategy is to unlock the potential of 'underdeveloped' gold and polymetallic projects in the greater Asian region by introducing Australian exploration and mining methods and improving efficiencies to gain significant exploration and production upside.

The Company holds a 100% direct and indirect contractual right interest in tenements in the Philippines that contain significant gold resources. Total Mineral Resources at Batangas include Indicated Resources of 2.97 million tonnes @ 2.4 g/t Au, 227,000 oz Au and Inferred Resources of 3.22 million tonnes @ 2.1 g/t Au, 218,000oz Au for a total of 6.19 million tonnes at 2.2 g/t Au, 444,000oz Au (ASX announcement 30 June 2014, JORC Code 2012).

The Company will continue exploration with the objectives of upgrading Mineral Resources at Batangas.

A Scoping Study (ASX announcement 20 March 2014) has demonstrated a strongly viable, low capital and operating cost, gold development based on initially recovering 90,000oz of gold over 4.5 years. The Company has committed to completing a Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) by December 2014.

Final permitting submissions have completed and lodged with the Philippines Government for approval to develop the Batangas Gold Project.

Other gold opportunities will be reviewed on a continuous basis.
