Dear Mr. Spirgel:
| Re: | Rockford Minerals, Inc. |
| | Amendment No. 2 to Form 8-K |
| | Filed September 27, 2013 |
| | File No. 001-34911 |
I am the President of Rockford Minerals Inc. (the “Company”) and submit this letter pursuant to a comment letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) dated October 7, 2013. My response is as follows:
Critical Accounting Policies
Intangible Assets
1. | We note your response to comment 12. Revise the third paragraph to state that you have been amortizing the patent since the date of issuance. |
Response: The Company has revised the paragraph in question to state that “the Patent is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of its useful life”, which is consistent with the disclosure in Tropic Spa’s unaudited interim financial statements for the periods ended May 31, 2013 and 2012.
Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management, page
2. | Please note that beneficial ownership includes not only investment/dispositive power, but also voting power. Refer to Rule 13d-3(a) of the Exchange Act. Since the Special Voting Share under the Trust Agreement confers on the Trustee the number of votes equal to the number of outstanding Exchangeable Shares on all matters on which the common stockholders of Rockford Minerals are entitled to vote, please separately list the Special Voting Share in the beneficial ownership table. Refer to Item 403(a) of Regulation S-K. Please also separately list in the table any person who has 5% or more voting rights over Rockford Minerals through the operation of the Trust Agreement. In this regard, it does not appear that the Trustee can vote other than as instructed by each holder of the Exchangeable Shares. Lastly, add a column that shows the total voting power of each person listed in the beneficial ownership table. |
Response: The Company has revised the beneficial ownership table as requested.

3. | Please revise the sentence that indicates the Company “will receive $50,000 for this service” to “have received….”, as provided in your previous response to comment 41 of our letter July 30, 2013. |
Response: The Company has revised the sentence in question as requested.
