Rockwell Diamonds Inc. ("Rockwell" or the "Company") (TSX: RDI; JSE: RDI; OTCBB: RDIAF) announces that it has now completed approximately $7.4 million of the planned $12.5 million of financings announced December 2, 2009. The shares issued under this financing will be subject to four month resale restricted periods from their issuance dates in December 2009 and January 2010. The Company also intends to increase the originally planned $12.5 million of financings by approximately $2.2 million, and it has received Toronto Stock Exchange approval for such increase. The Company expects to complete the remaining financings in January 2010.
The remaining portion of the Company's recapitalization will be sought through a rights offering planned for January 2010. Completion of at least $3.1 million of this rights offering is guaranteed by another new principal investor, Daboll Consultants who are associated with the Steinmetz Diamond Group.

President and CEO John Bristow commented "We are pleased to have completed the majority of our planned financing. These funds provide the basis on which we can strengthen our balance sheet, modernize and re-commission the processing plant at Wouterspan - the Company's fourth operation which has been on care and maintenance since January 2009, take advantage of increasing diamond prices, and re-commence our growth plans. We welcome Mr Yong Guo to our board and look forward to his assistance in tapping into the Chinese investment markets and identifying opportunities in the rapidly expanding Chinese diamond manufacturing and retail sector."
