So, where is the black hole?

I assumed all the red matter-created black holes pretty much collapsed in on themselves straight away

Yeah, that's what I figured. In nature, so-called primordial blackholes evaporate almost as soon as they are created, I imagine the planet-sized ones don't last very long.
 
The black hole created by the gravity of the Narada will not have a very strong gravitational pull nor event horizon reaching out far. It seems the red matter reacts with the mass that it is surrounded by. On Vulcan, the mass of the core of a planet is much more (than the Narada's mass), so the gravitational pull (inward) would be able to "suck in" the planet.

What happens to the black hole is unknown. Is it actually a Schwarzchild singularity? Or just emulates the effects of one?
