Abstract: In this note we prove that if is a compact set of $m\times n$ matrices containing an isolated point with no rank-one connection into the convex hull of $K\setminus\{X\}$ , then the rank-one convex hull separates as

$\displaystyle K^{rc}=\bigl(K\setminus\{X\}\bigr)^{rc}\cup\{X\}.$

This is an extension of a result of P. Pedregal, which holds for $2\times 2$ matrices.
