Sort/select by duplicates containing cell colour
I need COLUMN A to sort all duplicates to the top IF one of the duplicates contain a cell with a specific colour.
Example:

| 8834523526 | ||
| 777777777777 | ||
| 24454784568 | ||
| 33333333333 CELL COLOR: YELLOW | ||
| 573423452345 | ||
| 777777777777 CELL COLOR: YELLOW | ||
| 33333333333 | ||
| 234573356 |
Wanted outcome:
| 777777777777 CELL COLOR: YELLOW | ||
| 777777777777 | ||
| 33333333333 CELL COLOR: YELLOW | ||
| 33333333333 | ||
| 353757353453 | ||
| 573423452345 | ||

Or simply just selecting the duplicate pairs with cell colour as I need to move them to their own spreadsheet.
My issue is that I need to do this with 57.000 rows, so I would need this process to be automatic and apply to all duplicates with the specific cell color.
Any help guys? I have Kutools if this is any good.
Regards,
James

The cells have been manually coloured.
To give a bit of background, I had a second column with information that had to match up, so I wanted to select all rows that contained that piece of information and then color the row to affect the COLUMN A that I am referring to. It's like selecting batches of apples that contain one red apple that has been placed there as an indicator.
COLUMN A has 5 rows of data that all link to one object.
COLUMN B has a 4 categories and language, ie. Russian or EnglishI need to select all the objects that have "Russian" in COLUMN B, so I need to select 5 rows in COLUMN A for each 1 row in COLUMN B that contains the word "Russian".
