COPPER ROAD ANNOUNCES ENGAGEMENT OF GEORGE MANNARD

Copper Road Resources Inc. has engaged George Mannard as a technical adviser to provide strategic, technical and scientific advice to the company's management team and board of directors related specifically to the exploration programs on the Ben Nevis volcanic complex property.

George N. Mannard, MScA, is a veteran exploration geologist with more than 35 years of experience in gold and base metal exploration and mine development in Canada. He was credited with the Louvicourt volcanogenic massive sulphide discovery near Val d'Or, Que., in 1989 while serving as senior project geologist for Aur Resources Inc., a major base-metal deposit that became one of Canada's significant VMS mining operations. In 1994, Mr. Mannard co-founded what is now Wesdome Gold Mines Ltd., where, as vice-president exploration, he helped advance the Eagle River, Edwards, Mishi and Kiena gold mines, including the later discovery of the high-grade Eagle River No. 7 and 300 zones and the Kiena Deep zone. He has over two decades of board and executive management experience with several junior mining companies and currently serves on the board of Gossan Resources Ltd. Mr. Mannard is a fellow of the Society of Economic Geologists and holds a BSc (honours) in geology from Queen's University and an MScA in mineral exploration from McGill University.

Brian Howlett, chief executive officer of Copper Road, commented: "We are honoured to have George join us as a technical adviser and provide guidance as we move forward on our Ben Nevis project. His knowledge and experience with VMS deposits will be invaluable to our project going forward."

The company also announces that it has granted 400,000 incentive stock options pursuant to the plan to a consultant of the company. Each option is exercisable into one common share of the company at an exercise price of 10 cents for a five-year term expiring on April 22, 2031.

We seek Safe Harbor.
