Cooper Minerals hires Value Relations for European IR

Vancouver, June 25, 2007 - Cooper Minerals Inc. has retained Value Relations (VR) of Germany to provide investor relations-related services to the company in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The company's agreement with VR, which is subject to regulatory acceptance, includes a monthly fee of 3,000 euros for a period of a one-year contract. It also provides for the granting to VR of an incentive stock option entitling VR to purchase up to 200,000 common shares of the company pursuant to the company's stock option plan, which option will vest 25 per cent every four months from the date of grant.

Simon Tam, president of the company, commented, "Given our growth prospects, recent positive business developments and the strategic initiatives currently under way, it made sense for us to now retain an investor relations firm like VR in Europe to increase the company's exposure within the European investment community."
