PRINCIPAL DOCUMENTS

The following documents that are filed as exhibits to this annual report are incorporated by reference herein:

• the Company’s Annual Information Form for the period ended February 29, 2008;

• the Company’s Audited Consolidated Financial Statements as at February 29, 2008 and May 31, 2007 and for the nine months ended February 29, 2008 and years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006;

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This annual report includes or incorporates by reference certain statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements appear in a number of places in this annual report and documents incorporated by reference herein and include statements regarding the Company’s intent, belief or current expectations and those of the Company’s management. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. When used in this annual report or in documents incorporated by reference in this annual report, words such as “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “plan,” “should,” “would,” “contemplate,” “possible,” “attempts,” “seeks” and similar expressions are intended to identify these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on various factors and were derived utilizing numerous assumptions that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, among others, statements regarding:

• the Company’s acquisition plans;

• the Company’s expected financial performance in future periods;

• the Company’s plan of operations, including its plans to carry out exploration and development activities;

• the Company’s expectations regarding the results of operations at its South African operating subsidiaries and exploration and development potential of the Company’s properties; and

• the Company’s statement of reserves;

• factors relating to the Company’s investment decisions.

- 2 -

Certain of the assumptions the Company has made include assumptions regarding, among other things:

• future commodity prices;

• the cost of carrying out exploration and development activities on certain of the Company’s mineral properties;

• the Company’s ability to obtain and keep the necessary expertise in order to carry out its operating, exploration and development activities within the planned time periods; and

• the Company’s ability to obtain adequate financing on acceptable terms.

Some of the risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the Company’s forward-looking statements include:

Risks Associated With Mining

• There is no assurance that Rockwell can formally establish the existence of any mineral reserve on any of its properties. Until Rockwell is able to establish a mineral reserve, there can be no assurance that production from these properties will continue for any period of time and if production fails, Rockwell's business may ultimately fail.

• Even if Rockwell discovers a mineral reserve, there can be no assurance that the related property will be developed.

• Mineral operations are subject to applicable law and government regulation. Even if Rockwell discovers a mineral resource in a commercially exploitable quantity, these laws and regulations could restrict or prohibit the exploitation of that mineral resource. If Rockwell cannot exploit any mineral resource that it might discover on our properties, its business may fail.

• Mineral exploration and development are subject to extraordinary operating risks. Rockwell does not currently insure against these risks. In the event of a cave-in or similar occurrence, Rockwell's liability may exceed its resources, which would have an adverse impact on Rockwell

• The prediction of grade can be more challenging for the type of deposit which the Company is exploiting.

• Mineral prices are subject to dramatic and unpredictable fluctuations.

• The mining industry is highly competitive and there is no assurance that Rockwell will continue to be successful in acquiring mineral claims. If Rockwell cannot continue to acquire properties to explore for mineral resources, it may be required to reduce or cease operations.

Risks Related to Rockwell

• Rockwell requires additional financing in order to continue in business as a going concern, the availability of which is uncertain.

• There is no guarantee of title to Rockwell's properties

• Surveys have not been performed on all the properties

• Some of Rockwell's directors and officers serve on the boards of other exploration companies, which could potentially give rise to conflicts of interest

• The loss of any of Rockwell's key management employees could have a material adverse effect on Rockwell's business

- 3 -

• Rockwell's properties are located in South Africa, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Chile and its operations there may be affected by varying degrees of political and economic uncertainties

• South African government empowerment initiatives may adversely affect Rockwell's ability to obtain or maintain permits and licenses for mining rights in South Africa.

• Absence of dividends

• Rockwell is subject to potentially volatile exchange rate fluctuations

• Rockwell expects to be a passive foreign investment company, which could have consequences for U.S. investors.

• Rockwell's stock is a penny stock. Trading of Rockwell's stock may be restricted by the SEC's penny stock regulations which may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell Rockwell's stock.

• NASD sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell Rockwell's stock.

• Rockwell has a significant number of outstanding options and warrants, the exercise of which could result in significant equity dilution.

Readers are referred to the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Information Form. The Company assumes no obligation to update or to publicly announce the results of any change to any of the forward-looking statements contained or incorporated by reference herein to reflect actual results, future events or developments, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting the forward-looking statements.

CAUTIONARY NOTE TO UNITED STATES INVESTORS CONCERNING
ESTIMATES OF RESERVES AND MEASURED, INDICATED AND INFERRED RESOURCES

The documents that have been incorporated by reference into this annual report use the terms “measured resources”, “indicated resources” and “inferred resources”. These resource estimates have been prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects and the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy Classification System. These standards differ significantly from the requirement of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Investors are advised that while the terms “measured resources”, “indicated resources” and “inferred resources” are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, including Canadian National Instrument 43-101, the SEC does not recognize them. Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made and all permits are in hand or are expected to be issued in the near future. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves. These terms have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of measured mineral resources, indicated mineral resources, or inferred mineral resources will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part of the reported measured mineral resources, indicated mineral resources, or inferred mineral resources in this annual report is economically or legally mineable. Further, “inferred resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. Therefore, United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of the inferred resources exist. In accordance with Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources cannot form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies.

- 4 -

Disclosure of “contained ounces” in mineral resources is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not qualify as “reserves” as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. For all of the above reasons, information contained in this annual report and the documents incorporated by reference herein containing descriptions of our reserves and resources may not be comparable to information made public by U.S. domestic issuers.

NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Unless otherwise indicated, all reserve and resource estimates contained in or incorporated by reference in this annual report have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101. These standards differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC, and reserve and resource information contained herein and incorporated by reference herein may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. domestic issuers.

NOTE TO UNITED STATES READERS REGARDING DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN UNITED STATES AND CANADIAN REPORTING PRACTICES

The Company is permitted to prepare this annual report in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements, which are different from those of the United States. The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“Canadian GAAP”) which principles differ in certain respects from those applicable in the United States (“US GAAP”) and from practices prescribed by the SEC. Please refer to note 16 of the consolidated financial statements of the Company as at February 29, 2008 and May 31, 2007 and for the nine months ended February 29, 2008 and years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006, as set forth in this Form 40-F.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act.

While our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer believe that our disclosure controls and procedures provide a reasonable level of assurance of effectiveness, they do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met.

INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and the board of directors regarding the preparation

- 5 -

and fair presentation of published financial statements. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework and criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management has concluded that internal control over financial reporting was effective as of February 29, 2008 to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP.

AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Company’s Board of Directors has established a separately-designated Audit Committee of the board in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act for the purpose of overseeing the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of the Company’s annual financial statements. As at the date of this annual report, the Audit Committee was comprised of Rene G. Carrier, Douglas Silver and Patrick Bartlett.

AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT

The Company’s Board of Directors has determined that Rene G. Carrier, a member of the Audit Committee of the board, is an audit committee financial expert (as that term is defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act) and is an independent director.

The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and all such services with set maximum dollar limits. In considering these requests, the Audit Committee assesses, among other things, whether the non-audit services requested would be considered prohibited services as contemplated by the SEC, and whether the non-audit services requested and related fees could impair the independence of the Company’s auditors.
