ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT

(a)

Resignation of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

On August 5, 2015, the board of directors of Royal Mines and Minerals Corp. (the “Company”) dismissed the engagement of De Joya Griffith, LLC (“De Joya Griffith”) as the Company’s Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

De Joya Griffith’s reports on the financial statements of the Company for the years ended April 30, 2015 and 2014 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they modified or qualified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles with the exception of a statement regarding the uncertainty of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

There have been no disagreements during the fiscal years ended April 30, 2015 and 2014 and the subsequent interim period up to and including the date of resignation between the Company and De Joya Griffith on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of De Joya Griffith, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with De Joya Griffith report.

The Company has provided De Joya Griffith with a copy of this report and has requested in writing that De Joya Griffith provide a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not they agree with the above statements. The Company has received a copy of De Joya Griffith’s letter and has filed it as an exhibit to this report.
