Rockwell announces: Extraordinary production of 373 carats in one day at Saxendrift; Finalization by DMR of Section 11 cession: South African Government grants rights for Tirisano Project

Rockwell Diamonds Inc. ("Rockwell" or the "Company") (TSX:RDI; JSE:RDI, OTCBB:RDIAF)

announced today that its Saxendrift mine produced a windfall day's production on August 2, 2011 and stated it had received confirmation of the Section 11 cession by the Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) for its Tirisano acquisition.

An extraordinary day's production at Saxendrift on Tuesday August 2, 2011:

On Tuesday August 2, 2011 373 carats were recovered at Rockwell's Saxendrift mine representing approximately half of the mine's budgeted monthly production in a single day. This is not only a record at the mine, but the highest daily production ever achieved within Rockwell's five year operating history. Among the stones recovered were four large stones weighing 180, 94, 43 and 34 carats.

"Rockwell's competitive advantage in the diamond world is the regular production of large high quality diamonds and although recoveries such as recently experienced at Saxendrift are rare they enhance the profitability of our mines." explains Campbell. "Saxendrift has a similar diamond distribution to both Wouterspan and Niewejaarskraal, which are next in a pipeline of development projects that Rockwell plans to bring on stream using improved diamond recovery processes."

About Rockwell Diamonds:

Rockwell is engaged in the business of operating and developing alluvial diamond deposits, with a goal to become a mid-tier diamond mining company. The Company has three existing operations, which it is progressively optimizing, two development projects and a pipeline of earlier stage properties with future development potential. Rockwell is also at an advanced stage of completing the acquisition of the Tirisano property.

BonTerra Intercepts a Zone 169.70 Metres Grading 0.73 Grams / Tonne Gold, Including Various High Grade Zones Assaying up to 54 g/t Gold on the Eastern Extension Property

BonTerra Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE: BTR)(FRANKFURT: 9BR)

received complete gold assays for drill hole BA-11-10. This hole has the widest gold intercept BonTerra has discovered to date and to the knowledge of the Company the widest ever gold intercept for the Urban-Barry belt. This zone is 169.70 metres in width assaying 0.73 grams/tonne ("g/t") gold. This expansive gold intercept is roughly twelve and a half times wider than the original gold zone discovered in BA-10-01 as disclosed in a news release dated November 9, 2010.

As is typically seen on the property, there are bands of high grade gold situated within the large gold zones. In this drill hole, high grade stretches assayed as high as 54 g/t gold. Gold grades are outlined below and in table 1.

-- 89.70 metres assaying 1.33 g/t gold -- 78.70 metres assaying 1.47 g/t gold -- 57.20 metres assaying 1.97 g/t gold -- 31.00 metres assaying 2.84 g/t gold -- 4.50 metres assaying 18.16 g/t gold -- 2.30 metres assaying 31.63 g/t gold -- 0.70 metres assaying 54.00 g/t gold

Oro Mining Intersects Additional High-Grade Gold Mineralization from Its Sonic Drilling Campaign and Releases Multiple Drill Results at Taunus Project, Mexico

Oro Mining Ltd. (TSX VENTURE:OGR)

has announced additional positive drill results and completes the current round of drilling on its Taunus project.

"Drilling directly below the pit floor has shown that there are mineralized connections between the near surface El Dorado zone and the deeper HS zone, as we previously thought," said John Brownlie, CEO of Oro Mining. "We have also stepped out on strike and have identified additional mineralization along the structural corridor."

--Sonic hole SN24 intersected 48 metres of 2.2 g/t gold expanding the HS
zone 20 metres to the east of the previous model. The last drill sample
interval assayed 4.1 g/t gold, indicating the HS zone is open at depth.
--Sonic hole SN27 intersected 18.7 metres of 2.0 g/t gold in the Eldorado
zone and 40.9 metres of 1.7 g/t gold in the HS zone, both intervals are
at least twice the gold grade of previous nearby reverse circulation
(RC) drill hole results.
--Sonic hole SN30 intersected 10.6 metres of 2.9 g/t gold in the Eldorado
zone. This hole is considered to have identified new mineralization on
strike and near surface.
--Sonic holes 23, 25 and 26 have identified additional gold mineralization
that will increase the Taunus resource.
