BCU Bell Copper Corporation

Bell Copper Corporation (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:BCU) announces that a
consolidation of its common shares will be proposed to its shareholders at the
upcoming annual and special meeting of shareholders scheduled to be held on June
26, 2012. 


The Company currently has 173,587,483 shares outstanding and proposes to
consolidate its common shares such that one new common share would be issued for
every seven common shares outstanding on the effective date of the
consolidation, or such lower number of common shares as may be determined by the
Board of Directors of the Company and as may be required to obtain approval of
the consolidation from the TSX Venture Exchange. 


It is management's view that the share consolidation will benefit the Company by
increasing investor interest, improving trading liquidity and improving the
Company's ability to raise capital at a higher price per share.


If the share consolidation is completed on a seven for one basis, the Company
would have approximately 24,798,211 common shares outstanding,
post-consolidation. 


The proposed share consolidation is subject to the approval, by special
resolution, of the shareholders of the Company and to the approval of the TSX
Venture Exchange.


The Company also announces that the La Balsa feasibility study has been
suspended pending the Company raising additional funding. The Company estimates
that approximately two months of work will be required to complete the
feasibility study following further funding.
