Item 8.01 Other Events.

On December 23, 2021, Rigel Resource Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) announced that the holders of the Company’s units sold in the Company’s initial public offering (the “Units”) may elect to separately trade the Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class A ordinary shares”), and redeemable warrants included in the Units commencing on December 27, 2021. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share and one-half of one redeemable warrant to purchase one Class A ordinary share. Any Units not separated will continue to trade on the The New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “RRAC.U.” Any underlying Class A ordinary shares and redeemable warrants that are separated will trade on NYSE under the symbols “RRAC” and “RRAC WS,” respectively. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants will trade. Holders of Units will need to have their brokers contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Company’s transfer agent, in order to separate such holders’ Units into Class A ordinary shares and redeemable warrants.

A copy of the press release issued by the Company announcing the separate trading of the securities underlying the Units is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are qualified in their entirety by this paragraph. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous conditions, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, including those set forth in the Risk Factors section of the Company’s registration statement and prospectus relating to the Company’s initial public offering filed with the SEC.
