Hi Jenny,
Thank you for your question.
According to the code of Practice for Fire Safety in Buildings 2011,mineral wool alone is tested against BS 476 Part 4 non-combustible materials test and this is not fire resistance test BS 476 Part 20.
You shall not simply apply mineral wool as FRR system without referring to any fire resistance test details and configuration.
FYI, The code of Practice for Fire Safety in Buildings 2011 download link:

Please let us know if you need any further helps.
Cheers,
Tania
