Comment re Copper Resources Corporation

CAMEC notes the announcement made by Copper Resources Corporation ('CRC') yesterday concerning CAMEC's 47% shareholding in CRC.

The directors of CAMEC consider that the board of CRC has acted improperly in seeking to disenfranchise CAMEC's shareholding in CRC and has failed to heed the detailed discussions that were held between CAMEC and CRC and its majority shareholder, Metorex Limited, earlier this year after CAMEC's purchase of shares in CRC.

CAMEC vigorously opposes the purported disenfranchisement and will use all avenues available to it to get the shares it holds re-enfranchised as soon as possible.
