SAN ANTONIO, February 24, 2012 (PRNewswire) – Cross Border Resources, Inc. (OTCQX: XBOR) (“Cross Border” or the “Company”), a San Antonio-based oil and gas exploration and production company, today announced that on February 21, 2012, the Company was notified that Red Mountain Resources, Inc.

The Board of Directors of Cross Border, consistent with its fiduciary duty and in consultation with its legal advisors, will meet to review and discuss this filing and will communicate with stockholders in due course. Stockholders are urged at this time not to take any action on the possible consent solicitation. Under the federal securities laws, no written consents may be solicited from you by Red Mountain before Red Mountain provides you with definitive consent solicitation materials.
The Company and certain of its directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of consent revocations from stockholders in connection with the potential consent solicitation by Red Mountain. The Company expects to file a preliminary consent revocation statement next week with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with the potential Red Mountain consent solicitation (the “Consent Revocation Statement”).

This document is available free of charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Additional information regarding the interests of potential participants will be included in the Consent Revocation Statement and other relevant documents to be filed with the SEC in connection with the possible consent solicitation.
Promptly after filing its definitive Consent Revocation Statement with the SEC, the Company will mail the definitive Consent Revocation Statement and a form of consent revocation to each stockholder entitled to deliver a written consent in connection with the possible consent solicitation. WE URGE INVESTORS TO READ THE CONSENT REVOCATION STATEMENT (INCLUDING ANY SUPPLEMENTS THERETO) AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS THAT THE COMPANY WILL FILE WITH THE SEC WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION. Stockholders will be able to obtain, free of charge, copies of the Consent Revocation Statement and any other documents filed by the Company with the SEC in connection with the possible consent solicitation at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
