Revett Minerals Inc. : Revett Minerals to ring today's Closing Bell at New York Stock Exchange
SPOKANE VALLEY, WA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/11/12 -- Revett Minerals Inc. (NYSE
AMEX:RVM/TSX:RVM/) is pleased to announce that Mr. Jerry Cummings, a Team
Leader in Revett's Troy Mine Flotation Mill, will ring today's closing bell
on the New York Stock Exchange.
Mr. Cummings was chosen to ring the closing bell after entering a raffle at
the mine to raise funds for local charities. Jerry has worked at Revett's
Troy Mine for 7 years and will represent the 200 men and women working at
the Troy Mine in Northwest Montana. As the winner of the raffle, Jerry
will designate all funds raised to a local charity of his choice. Mr.
Cummings will be joined by members of the Company's management team and
Board of Directors. The Company was listed on the NYSE Amex in May 2010.
Revett President and Chief Executive Officer, John Shanahan, said, 'What
started out as a way to select someone from the mine to ring the bell
quickly turned into an opportunity to raise money and support the
local communities of northwest Montana. That just about says it all about
how the employees at the Troy Mine operate; always mindful of
others and mindful of their responsibilities as operators. We are
extremely proud of what this group of 200 miners have achieved.'
The bell ringing can be seen live on CNBC, FOX Business News and CNN at
4:00pm Eastern Time today.
