December 2016 Quarterly Activities Report

Rumble Resources Ltd (ASX: RTR) (“Rumble” or “the Company”) is pleased to provide an update of the Company’s activities during the December 2016 quarter.

Ongoing Review of Resource Opportunities

The addition to the board of Brett Keillor has enhanced the Company strategy to proactively identify and review potential acquisition opportunities to complement the Company's existing projects and activities.

During the quarter Mr Keillor facilitated introductions to a number of advanced resources projects. The Company is now at advanced stages of due diligence and negotiations in relation to those projects that met the Company’s stringent criteria.

The Company will keep the market updated should any of these discussions result in an agreement being reached.

Rumble Current Portfolio

The Company continues to review its project portfolio which encompassed project prioritisation and consideration of expenditure commitments with a view to rationalise costs. There was no on-ground exploration activity during the quarter.

Corporate

Appointment of Brett Keillor as Technical Director

Mr Brett Keillor is a geologist with over 30 years’ experience in the mining industry working across a diverse range of commodities with expertise in targeting large gold deposits and identifying company making projects.
