DRILLING CONTINUES TO ENCOUNTER STRONG MINERALIZATION NORTH OF PIT 1:

INTERSECTS

215 FT. GRADING 0.85% Cu, 0.45 g/t Au, and 4.93 g/t Ag

Vancouver, B.C., February 7, 2008 [UTF-8?]– Copper Mountain Mining Corporation [UTF-8?](“CMMC” or the [UTF-8?]“Company) announces assay results from the last 32 drill holes of the 2007 exploration program at the 100% owned Copper Mountain project.  Six drill-holes were completed immediately north of Pit 1, fifteen drill-holes to the northeast and northwest of Pit 2, five drill-holes in the Saddle Zone between Pit 1 and Pit 3, and seven drill-holes in the northeast wall of Pit 3. 

The drill holes were completed during December, 2007, and were primarily drilled to convert areas of inferred resources within the preliminary designed [UTF-8?]“Super-Pit” to the measured and indicated categories in advance of the Feasibility Study, which is currently underway and expected to be completed early in 2008.  Additionally, where drill-holes encountered significant mineralization near the edge of the design pit, more holes were drilled resulting in extensions beyond the pit boundary (see attached map).

Key results from the five areas of drilling are:

�         Drill-holes CM07P2-78-81, 83, and 85-90 were drilled to the north-east of Pit 2, in the entrance ramp area and intersected numerous, narrow to moderate length, intersections which will likely result in an extension and deepening of the design pit in this area.  Of significance, CM07P2-89 intersected 67 feet grading 0.98% Cu, 0.34g/t Au and 4.34g/t Ag, starting at [UTF-8?]23’.  

�         Drill-holes CM07P2-77 and 82 were collared [UTF-8?]300’ west of the north-western edge of Pit2 and intersected relatively continuous mineralization including 360 feet of 0.29% Cu, 0.13g/t Au and 0.9g/t Ag starting at [UTF-8?]47’; which provides low-strip material for additional pit expansion. 

�         Drill-holes P1-02 to 06, were collared between 200 and 800 feet north of Pit 1 in an area of sparse drilling and inferred resources.  All of these holes contained significant intersections, many of which are above average in grade.  In particular, CM07P1-04 intersected 60 feet grading 1.03% Cu, 0.18g/t Au and 3.23g/t Ag from 275 to [UTF-8?]335’; and the bottom of CM07P1-06 intersected 215 feet grading 0.85% Cu, 0.45g/t Au and 4.93g/t Ag. 

�         Drill-holes QA5 to QA9, are short holes within the saddle zone located between Pits 1 and 3, and did not intersect any significant near-surface mineralization. 

�         Seven holes were drilled in the northeast wall of Pit 3 in order to upgrade the classification of an area of inferred blocks within the resource estimate.  Results were mixed, but CM07P3-05 returned an intersection of 90 feet grading 0.75% Cu, 0.10g/t Au and 1.98g/t Ag.

A total of 44,000m (144,000 feet) of drilling was completed in 163 drill holes in 2007.  Completion rate for drill holes was 94%.   The 2007 drill program had three primary objectives: 1) to provide enough data to upgrade inferred resources to the indicated and measured categories; 2) to validate and confirm the historical data; and 3) to provide additional drill information peripheral to, and between, the existing open pits; and at depth in order to delineate additional resources. The interim resource estimate (Sept. 06, 2007) demonstrated that the program had been highly successful in achieving all of the objectives to that point and it is anticipated that the additional drilling since then will be equally successful.  All of 2007 drill results will be added to the historical database for an updated, independent 43-101 compliant resource estimate which is anticipated early in 2008. 

Most of the more significant intersections from drill-holes announced in this press release are listed in the table below and shown on the attached map.   A complete list of the significant intersections from all of the 2007 drilling can be found on the [UTF-8?]company’s website.  It should be noted that there are numerous narrow or low-grade zones within the drill holes that are not reported but that still contribute to the resource estimate.

The mineralized system at Copper Mountain is classified as a bulk-tonnage, alkalic porphyry copper-gold deposit that is hosted within Nicola Group volcanic rocks.  Mineralization is structurally controlled and focused at multi-directional vein intersections and within vein stockwork systems.  Drill holes are usually drilled at angles of -45 or -55 degrees to provide the best indication of the lateral extents of vertically oriented mineralization.  

The Copper Mountain project is situated 300 km east of Vancouver, British Columbia.  The Copper Mountain project is a former producer of 1.7 billion pounds of copper and has extensive infrastructure in place, including power and water.  The site can be accessed year round as a paved highway goes right to site. 

Quality Assurance

The company employs a system of quality control for drill results which includes the use of blanks, certified reference material (standards) and check assaying.  Core is logged on site and split with a diamond saw.   Samples are shipped to Pioneer Laboratories for geochemical analysis of copper with all values of greater than 1000 ppm copper being re-analysed by assay methods for copper, gold and silver.  The drilling program is being supervised by Peter Holbek, M.Sc., P.Geo., a qualified person as defined by National Policy Instrument 43-101.
