Spokane Valley, Washington (June 1, 2006) – Revett Minerals Inc. (RVM-TSX) is pleased to announce that it has retained Renmark Financial Inc. (“Renmark”) to assist the Company in increasing its awareness amongst retail investors.  Renmark will be key in Revett’s efforts to improve investor awareness and understanding of Revett’s operations and potential.  Renmark was chosen because of their track record in maintaining a strong core of mining clients, and their extensive database of brokers and dealers, which can be put to use in highlighting Revett as an attractive investment opportunity.

 

William Orchow, Revett’s CEO commented: “We recognize that in order to reach a greater number of potential investors, Revett needs a group of individuals knowledgeable of, and dedicated to the retail markets.  To that end, we look forward to working with Renmark, and hope to see the benefits of this investment over the coming months.”

Revett Minerals, through its subsidiaries, owns and operates the Troy Mine, and the development stage Rock Creek Project, both of which are located in northwestern Montana, USA.  These projects host significant copper and silver mineral reserves and resources and will form the basis of our plan to become a solid mid-tier base and precious metals producer in the future.  The company plans on expanding its production through exploration in and around its current properties, as well as through targeted business combinations of advance staged projects.
