1. Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, cash flows, and shareholders’ equity contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Revett Minerals Inc. (“Revett Minerals” or the “Company”) as of September 30, 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. The operating and financial results for Revett Minerals for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2011.

These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and are presented in U.S. dollars. The Company issued its audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 in accordance with Canadian GAAP and also provided a reconciliation on the differences between Canadian GAAP and U.S. GAAP in note 15 to those audited annual consolidated financial statements. The change in generally accepted accounting principles is described in note 2 below. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include all note disclosures required by U.S. GAAP on an annual basis, and therefore should be read in conjunction with the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the appropriate securities regulatory authorities.

The underlying value and recoverability of the mineral property, plant and equipment of the Troy mine and the Rock Creek property are dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable mineral reserves, the ability of the Company to profitability operate the Troy Mine, obtaining the necessary financing to complete exploration and development of the Rock Creek property, obtaining the necessary operating permits for the Rock Creek property and future profitable production or sufficient proceeds from the sale of the Rock Creek property.

2. Changes affecting fiscal 2011 consolidated financial statements and Future accounting Changes:

(a) Changes in generally accepted accounting policies:

The Company historically prepared its consolidated financial statements in conformity with Canadian GAAP and provided a supplemental reconciliation to U.S. GAAP. Effective January 1, 2011, the Company adopted U.S. GAAP as its accounting framework for its consolidated financial statements. These unaudited consolidated interim financial statements, including related notes, have therefore been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. All comparative financial information contained herein has been recast to reflect the Company’s results as if the Company had historically reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The adjustments resulted in an increase in deficit of $3.8 million, an increase in assets of $3.4 million, an increase in liabilities of $5.9 million, an increase in temporary equity of $0.7 million, a decrease in common stock of $0.7 million, and an increase in contributed surplus $1.3 million, all at January 1, 2011. These differences are outlined in our annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 in note 15. In addition, net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 was increased by $1.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively.

There were no recent amendments by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) to the Accounting Standards Codification that materially impacted the Company’s consolidated financial statements or disclosures for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

(b) Future accounting changes

There were no new pronouncements issued by the FASB that are expected to materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements for future periods.

5. Available for sale securities

Available for sale securities are comprised of publically traded common stocks which have been valued using quoted market prices in active markets (Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy). The following table summarizes the Company’s available for sale securities:

6. Warrant derivative liability

Some of the Company’s issued and outstanding common share purchase warrants have exercise price denominated in a foreign currency (Canadian dollar). These warrants are required to be treated as a derivative liability as the amount of cash the Company will receive on exercise of the warrants will vary depending on the exchange rate. These warrants are classified as a derivative liability and recognized at fair value. Changes in the fair value of these warrants are recognized in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised or expire. The Company recognized a gain of $1.6 million from the change in fair value of the warrants for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 (September 30, 2010 - $ 1.4 million loss). On June 30, 2011, the Company and a warrant holder agreed to modify the terms of 1.1 million warrants to change the Canadian dollar exercise price to a US dollar exercise price. As a result, these warrants no longer require treatment as a derivative liability. The fair value of these warrants on the date of the modification was $3.4 million and was reclassified to contributed surplus.

The following table presents the reconciliation of the fair value of the warrants:

(expressed in thousands of United States dollars unless otherwise stated)
(unaudited)

These common share purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities market, and as such, the Company has estimated the fair value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions at September 30, 2011: weighted average risk-free interest rate 0.25%, weighted average volatility 74.4%, expected dividend yield – nil, and weighted average expected life (in years) 1.9. At December 31, 2010: weighted average risk-free interest rate 1.02%, weighted average volatility 113%, expected dividend yield – nil, and weighted average expected life (in years) 2.7. The fair value estimate is classified as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

7. Share Capital

(a) Common Stock

The Company has one class of no par value common stock of which an unlimited number are authorized for issue. The holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends without restriction when and if declared by the board of directors. Holders of the Company’s common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights to acquire additional shares of common stock and do not have cumulative voting rights. At September 30, 2011, the Company had 34,050,936 shares of common stock outstanding.

During the first nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company issued 275,000 common shares with a fair value of $1.2 million to acquire a right to convert certain shares into a 2% royalty interest on future Rock Creek production (note 8(b)), issued 13,052 shares for compensation to directors in the amount of $ 0.07 million; issued 345,000 common shares on exercise of stock options for cash proceeds of $0.5 million, and issued 240,000 common shares on exercise of warrants for cash proceeds of $0.5 million.

(b) Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of no par preferred stock. The Company’s board of directors is authorized to create any series and, in connection with the creation of each series, to fix by resolution the number of shares of each series, and the designations, powers, preferences and rights; including liquidation, dividends, conversion and voting rights, as they may determine. At September 30, 2011, no preferred stock was issued or outstanding.

(c) Stock options

The Company’s Equity Incentive Plan authorizes the Company to reserve and have available for issue 3,345,374 shares of common stock as at September 30, 2011 and 1,882,500 options are issued and outstanding. There were 930,000 stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 with an average exercise price of $4.97, and average expected life of 4.5 years. The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing formula with a risk-free interest rate of 0.87% - 2.07%, volatility of 95% - 96% and an expected life of the options of 3 – 5 years to calculate the fair values of these options. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, 9,500 options were cancelled or expired and 345,000 options were exercised. As at September 30, 2011, the intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable was $1.6 million.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

a) Reclamation

The following table shows the changes in the reclamation liability for the periods indicated.

As at September 30, 2011, the Company has $6.5 million in restricted cash which is collateral for the reclamation bond at the Troy Mine.

b) Kennecott Royalty Option

During 2002, Kennecott and Revett Silver, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, agreed to amend the February 21, 2000 Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement pursuant to which Revett Silver acquired Kennecott’s interest in Troy and Rock Creek. Among other things, the amendment granted Kennecott the right to acquire a 2% net smelter return royalty (the NSR royalty) from the sale of metals from a defined area of the Company's Rock Creek property anytime until the later of one year after Rock Creek achieves 80% of designed commercial capacity production or December 31, 2015. Kennecott was required to surrender 450,000 shares of the Company's common shares previously issued to acquire the NSR royalty. On March 21, 2011, the Company purchased the right to convert the 450,000 shares to a 2% net smelter royalty interest on future Rock Creek production that was previously owned by Kennecott in exchange for the issue of an additional 275,000 of its common shares. The exchange was accounted for as an exchange of the original 450,000 common shares with a conversion feature for 725,000 common shares without a conversion feature. The carrying value of the original 450,000 shares of $676,000 has been transferred from temporary equity to share capital. The fair value of the additional 275,000 common shares was $1,213,000 and has been recorded in accumulated deficit as an equity transaction.

c) Rock Creek Developments

On May 29, 2010, the US District Court ruled that the United States Forest Service's (USFS) decision to approve the Rock Creek project is vacated and the 2003 Record of Decision (RoD) and 2001 Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) are set aside and remanded to the USFS for further action. Based on the Company's review of the judgment, the Company does not believe that the judgment prevents the Company from developing the Rock Creek project but it will delay such development until the Company is able to satisfactorily address the Court’s concerns

Although the District Court remanded the FEIS and RoD back to the USFS based on issues related to the National Enviromental Policy Act (“NEPA”), the USFS prevailed on the issues related to the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Subsequently several environmental groups appealed that portion of the District Court’s May 2010 ruling to the Ninth Circuit. Oral arguments were held July 14, 2011 in front of the Ninth Circuit, in Portland, Oregon, the litigation of Rock Creek Alliance, et al versus the USFWS. We are currently waiting for a ruling from the Ninth Circuit

Since May 2010, Revett has been working with USFS to satisfy those issues identified in the Court’s Opinion. In cooperation with the U.S. Forest Service, a Supplemental EIS (SEIS) study is to be completed to correct the NEPA deficiencies identified by the Court and the USFS has appointed a contractor for completion of the SEIS.

In a ruling issued on July 21, 2011, the Montana District Court determined that the Company will be required to obtain an “individual Montana Pollutant Discharge Elimination Systems (MPDES) discharge permit” rather than a “general permit” as originally granted by the Montana DEQ. This permit relates specifically to storm water management during road reconstruction in Phase 1 of the mine project and not the ESA challenges that are currently being defended in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. The Company will take steps to address the court’s concerns with the State agencies that are responsible for administration of the Montana Water Quality Act. A decision whether to appeal the District Courts’ decision will be made in consultation with the agencies in the coming weeks. The Company does not anticipate that this ruling will affect the overall timeline of project development or completion of the SEIS.

Although the Company believes that it will ultimately receive environmental and operating permits, it is possible that successful challenges could delay or prevent the Company from developing the Rock Creek project which could result in the impairment and write-down of the carrying value related to the Rock Creek property.

d) Cabinet Resources Group, Inc. (plaintiff) v. Montana Department of Environmental Quality and Troy Mine, Inc. (defendants):

The plaintiff’s suit alleges that Troy is being operated in violation of the Montana Metal Mine Reclamation Act (“MMRA”) because of deficiencies in its reclamation plan and that all of the defendants have violated the Montana Constitution and various state statutes and regulations by allowing such operations to continue. The plaintiff seeks a declaration that the Troy operating permit and reclamation plan are void and invalid; alternatively it seeks a writ of mandamus from the court requiring the DEQ to enforce the MMRA and presumably suspend or revoke Troy’s operating permit, declare a forfeiture of the Company’s performance bond and enjoin the Company from further operations at Troy pending approval of a new reclamation plan. The Company believes this action is without merit, particularly in view of the on-going completion of an EIS on the mine reclamation plan with the USFS and DEQ at Troy and the increased performance bonds provided to the DEQ. The Court has indicated that it will not set a trial date until DEQ has completed its required review of the reclamation plan. The Company is vigorously defending itself with respect to this action.

9. Financial Instruments

At September 30, 2011, the Company had three forward contracts to sell 3.97 million pounds of copper at an average price of $3.85 per pound and 0.09 million ounces of silver at an average price of $19.00 per ounce. Two of these contracts which have an average forward price of $3.55 for copper and $19.00 for silver mature at various dates ending in February, 2012. The forward contract which has an average price of $4.00 for copper matures at various dates from March, 2012, through February, 2013. All contracts are with the Company’s customer and have been designated as normal purchase and sale contracts. Accordingly, the effect of these contracts are accounted for in the period they are settled. The fair value of these forward sales contracts, if settled at September 30, 2011 metal prices, would result in a gain of approximately $1.4 million.

For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, the gain on warrant derivative associated with dilutive warrants is an adjustment to net income for diluted earnings per share purposes because the gain would not have been recognized had the warrants been converted at the beginning of the period.

Options to purchase 1,185,000 and 1,175,000 shares of our common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011, respectively. The exercise price of these options exceeded the average price of our stock during these periods and were anti-dilutive.

For the three months and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, options and warrants to purchase 2,588,286 and 2,542,286 shares, respectively, of our common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their exercise prices exceeded the average price of our stock during the periods and were anti-dilutive.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations as at November 14, 2011

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) of the financial results of Revett Minerals Inc. (“Revett Minerals” or the “Company”) for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim financial statements and notes as at and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 which form part of this report. In addition, this MD&A and related financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2010 audited consolidated financial statements, the related Management’s Discussion and Analysis, and the Form 10-K filed in Canada on SEDAR or on file in the United States with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or on EDGAR.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and unless otherwise stated, are presented in U.S. dollars. The Company issued its audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 in accordance with Canadian GAAP and also provided a reconciliation on the differences between Canadian GAAP and U.S. GAAP in note 15 to those audited annual consolidated financial statements. The change in generally accepted accounting principles is described in note 2 to the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

Some of the statements in this MD&A are forward looking statements that are subject to risk factors set out in the cautionary note contained in this MD&A.

Overview

As at November 14, 2011, the Company’s principal assets consisted of a 100% interest in the Troy copper and silver mine (“Troy”) in northwest Montana, USA and also a 100% interest in the undeveloped Rock Creek copper and silver development project (“Rock Creek”) also located in northwest Montana.

Overall Performance

As at September 30, 2011, the Company increased cash and cash equivalents on hand by 127% to $19.9 million compared to $8.8 million at December 31, 2010. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company reported net profit of $7.9 million (which includes a $3.4 million non-cash charge for the issuance of stock options during the period and a $1.6 million gain on the valuation of warrant derivatives) or $0.24 per share compared to a net income of $0.3 million or $0.01 per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

For the three months ended September 30, 2011, we had net income of $2.9 million, or $0.08 per share compared to a net income of $0.7 million or $0.02 per share for the three months ended September 30, 2010. This increase is primarily due to improved metal grades from increased production from the C Bed area and improved recoveries from modifications in the mill circuit. Silver production was 402,700 ounces, a 45% increase from the same period in 2010 and copper production was 3.27 million pounds, a 39% increase from the same period in 2010.

Exploration efforts continued in and around the Troy Mine with additional resources added in the C Bed area.

18

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to the same period in 2010.

The major highlights for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, included:

• Silver production of 402,700 ounces and over 3.27 million pounds of copper production resulting in a 45% increase in silver production and a 39% increase in copper production compared to the same period in 2010. Improved silver and copper grades along with higher metal recoveries resulted from increased production from the C Bed area and process improvements in the mill.
• The Company achieved revenues of $16.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011.
• Mill throughput of 4,370 tons per day and silver production at 402,700 ounces are the highest quarterly numbers since the mine reopened in late 2004.
• The successful exploration program in and around the Troy Mine continues to add ore resource, including an additional 1,157,946 tons of indicated resource at a grade of 1.07 opt silver and 0.41% copper in the C Bed mining horizon, approximately a 50% increase of the C Bed inferred resources that were reported January 8, 2011.
• The Company’s working capital has increased to $23.5 million at September 30, 2011, a 121% increase since December 31, 2010

Operating Results:

The table below illustrates certain key operating statistics for Troy for the three months ended September 30, 2011, with a comparison to the same three month period in 2010.

Production during the third quarter of 2011 was above plan at 4,370 tons per day and higher than the production of 3,914 tons per day in the third quarter of 2010. Due to significantly higher tonnage and metal grades from mining in the C Bed area, metal production was significantly improved. Copper production was higher at 3,272,526 pounds while silver production increased to 402,700 ounces as compared to 277,437 ounces of silver and 2,347,643 pounds of copper in the third quarter of 2010. Mining in the C Beds continued as planned and metal grades in the C Beds are also as expected. For the third quarter, ore grades increased 24% for silver and 12% for copper as compared to the third quarter of 2010. Although recoveries are still somewhat lower than plan of 87% for silver and 86% for copper, recoveries in the third quarter of 2011 improved to 86.9% for silver and 84.5% for copper compared to recoveries of 83.2% for silver and 76.6% for copper in the third quarter of 2010.

Financial Results:

21

Summarized Financial Results by Quarter

(1) This is a non-GAAP measurement. These amounts reflect the net cash flow from the Troy Mine before capital spending, equipment payments and changes in working capital.

Financing Activities

During the first nine months of 2011, the Company did not enter into any new capital leases. Revett Silver had previously entered into the following contractual financial obligations (in thousands of USD):

22

Revett Silver has also entered into a number of operating leases relating to the production and transportation of the copper concentrate produced at Troy. All such leases expire in 2011 and some may be renewed annually. The obligations in 2011 under the terms of these leases are $0.1 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s liquidity position is directly related to the level of concentrate production, cost of this production and the provisional and final prices received for the copper and silver in the concentrate that is sold. At September 30, 2011, working capital was $23.5 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $19.9 million. At September 30, 2011, net concentrate receivable was $2.6 million compared to $3.6 million at December 31, 2010 and copper concentrate inventory (stated at cost) was $4.2 million compared to $0.6 million at December 31, 2010. The net realizable value or liquidation value of the concentrate inventory at September 30, 2011, was approximately $7.5 million. The increase in the concentrate inventory is due to improved production and lack of rail cars to ship the concentrate.

At today’s copper and silver prices the Company is generating positive cash flow. Declines in copper and silver prices could erode the Company’s cash and working capital position. For the remainder of 2011, the Company has sold forward approximately 50% of copper production at an average price of $3.55 per pound and approximately 25% of silver production at an average price of $19.00 per ounce. (see “Off Balance Sheet Arrangements”).

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

During 2002, Kennecott and Revett Silver, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, agreed to amend the February 21, 2000 Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement pursuant to which Revett Silver acquired Kennecott’s interest in Troy and Rock Creek. Among other things, the amendment granted Kennecott the right to acquire a 2% net smelter return royalty (the NSR royalty) from the sale of metals from a defined area of the Company's Rock Creek property anytime until the later of one year after Rock Creek achieves 80% of designed commercial capacity production or December 31, 2015. Kennecott was required to surrender 450,000 shares of the Company's common shares previously issued to acquire the NSR royalty. On March 21, 2011, the Company purchased the right to convert the 450,000 shares to a 2% net smelter royalty interest on future Rock Creek production that was previously owned by Kennecott in exchange for the issue of an additional 275,000 of its common shares. The exchange was accounted for as an exchange of the original 450,000 common shares with a conversion feature for 725,000 common shares without a conversion feature. The carrying values of the original 450,000 shares of $676,000 has been transferred from temporary equity to share capital. The fair value of the additional 275,000 common shares was $1,213,000 and has been recorded in accumulated deficit as an equity transaction.

The Company has three forward contracts to sell 3.97 million pounds of copper and 0.09 million ounces of silver at fixed prices of $3.85 per pound and $19.00 per ounces, respectively, which have been designated as normal purchase and sales contracts. Two of these contracts which have an average forward price of $3.55 for copper and $19.00 for silver mature at various dates ending in February, 2012. The forward contract which has an average price of $4.00 for copper matures at various dates from March, 2012, through February, 2013. The fair value of these contracts at September 30, 2011, is an asset of $1.4 million which is not recognized in the balance sheet (see Financial instruments, hedging activities and other instruments).

Principal Risks and Uncertainties

Revett Minerals is a speculative investment, for many reasons, and the following risk factors should be carefully considered in evaluating it. In addition, this report contains forward-looking statements that involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements include statements of our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results could differ from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth below. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this report before investing.

We have a limited operating history and had losses in prior years. We have been engaged in commercial mining operations at Troy for just over six years and have not yet attained a consistent record of profitability. In the first nine months of 2011 we incurred net income of $7.9 million on revenues of $48.2 million. For the 2010 year, we incurred a loss of $0.6 million on revenues of $47.0 million. In 2009, we incurred a loss of $3.7 million on $29.5 million in revenues. In 2008, we incurred a loss of $6.7 million on revenues of $35.9 million. In 2007, we earned approximately $0.9 million on revenues of approximately $39 million. Our loss in 2009 and 2008 was primarily a result of a rapid decrease in copper and silver pricing during the second half of 2008 and lower than expected metals production.

Environmental challenges could prevent us from ever developing Rock Creek. Our proposed development of Rock Creek has been challenged on environmental grounds by several regional and national environmental organizations at various times subsequent to the Forest Service’s issuance of a Record of Decision approving our plan of operation in 2003. Some of these challenges are substantial and ongoing, and allege violations of the procedural and substantive requirements of a variety of federal and state laws and regulations pertaining to our permitting activities at Rock Creek, including ESA, NEPA, the 1872 Mining Law, the Federal Land Policy Management Act, the Wilderness Act, the National Forest Management Act, the Clean Water Act, the Forest Service Organic Act of 1897 and the Administrative Procedural Act. Although we have generally been successful in addressing most of the environmental challenges to our operations, we cannot predict with any degree of certainty how the pending challenges will be resolved. Rock Creek is potentially the more significant of our two mining assets. Continued court challenges to the Record of Decision and its accompanying biological opinion have delayed us from proceeding with our planned development. If we are successful in defending these challenges, we still must comply with a number of requirements and conditions as development progresses, failing which we could be denied the ability to continue with our proposed activities at Rock Creek. (See the section of this report entitled “Legal Proceedings.”)

Our reclamation liability at Troy could be substantial. In acquiring Troy, we agreed to indemnify ASARCO and hold it harmless from all of the liabilities associated with the reclamation, restoration and closure of the mine. This entailed our procurement of a $12.9 million performance bond. We have submitted a revised reclamation plan for Troy to the Montana DEQ and they have been in the process of completing environmental analysis in cooperation with the Forest Service. The Agencies have given notice that an Environmental Impact Statement will be completed and subsequently changes may be made to the estimated reclamation costs and the amount of the performance bond. We do not presently know whether our revised plan will actually result in increased reclamation costs at Troy. Laws governing the closure of mining operations in Montana have become more stringent since Troy was first placed into production, and could include provisions requiring us to perpetually treat all of the discharged water from the mine. These factors could result in the imposition of a higher performance bond. Further, our reclamation liability at Troy is not limited by the amount of the performance bond itself. The bond serves only as security for the payment of these obligations; any substantial increase in actual costs over and above the $16.8 million maximum allowed under the current surety agreement would necessarily be borne by the Company. Payment of such costs could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

24

We presently do not have the financial resources to develop Rock Creek. At September 30, 2011 we had cash and cash equivalents and short term investments of $19.9 million. We do not have sufficient cash to fund our evaluation program at Rock Creek and we do not have sufficient funds to allow us to develop a mine or begin mining operations should it prove feasible to do so. The estimated capital cost of constructing a mine at Rock Creek is in the range of $250 to $275 million and could change materially.

The Rock Creek mineral resources are not equivalent to reserves. This report includes information concerning the estimated size of our mineral resource at Rock Creek and the amount of ore that may be produced from the project were it to be developed. Since no ore has been produced from Rock Creek, these estimates are preliminary in nature. This report also includes information concerning mineral resources at Troy. Although we believe these amounts are significant, it does not mean the mineral resource can be economically mined. A mineral resource is not equivalent to a commercially mineable ore body or “proven reserves” or “probable reserves” under standards promulgated by the SEC, principally because they are less certain and not necessarily amenable to economic development. We will not be able to determine whether Rock Creek contains a commercially mineable ore body until our evaluation program has been completed and we have obtained a final, economic and technical feasibility study that will include an analysis of the amount of ore that can be economically produced under then-prevailing market conditions. United States investors are cautioned that the terms “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” are not recognized by the SEC. The estimation of mineral resources involves greater uncertainty as to their existence and economic feasibility than the estimation of proven and probable reserves. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that mineral resources will ever be converted into reserves.

There are other formidable risks to mining. We are subject to all of the risks inherent in the mining industry, including industrial accidents, labor disputes, unusual or unexpected geologic formations, cave-ins, surface subsidence, flooding, power disruptions and periodic interruptions due to inclement weather. These risks could result in damage to or destruction of its mineral properties and production facilities, personal injury, environmental damage, delays, monetary losses and legal liability. In addition, we are subject to competition for new minerals properties, management and skilled miners from other mining companies, many of which have significantly greater resources than we do. We also have no control over changes in governmental regulation of mining activities, the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, operating hazards, fluctuating metals prices, and inflation and other economic conditions.

Copper and silver prices fluctuate markedly. Our operations are significantly influenced by the price of copper and silver. Copper and silver prices fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors that are beyond our control, such as the strength of the United States dollar, global and regional industrial demand, and the political and economic conditions of major producing countries throughout the world. Since 1990, world average copper prices have fluctuated from a low of $0.71 per pound in 2002 to a high of $4.48 per pound in 2011, and world average annual silver prices have fluctuated from a low of $3.95 per ounce in 1992 to a high of $41.97 per ounce in 2011. As at September 30, 2011, we have contracts outstanding to sell 3.97 million pounds of copper at an average price of $3.85 per pound and 90,000 ounces of silver at an average price of $19.00. These contracts mature at various dates from December 2011 to February 2013.

25

Currency fluctuations will affect our competitiveness. The price of copper and silver are denominated in U.S. dollars even though most production originates in countries whose currencies are independently valued. Fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the values of these host country currencies could affect the competitiveness of our operations.

Accounting Changes

These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and are presented in U.S. dollars. Revett Minerals Inc. (the Company) issued its audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 in accordance with Canadian GAAP and also provided a reconciliation on the differences between Canadian GAAP and U.S. GAAP in note 15 to those audited annual consolidated financial statements. Effective January 1, 2011, the Company began presenting its financial statements in accordance with US GAAP and prior period financial statements were restated to be presented in accordance with US GAAP. All financial information stated herein has been presented in accordance with US GAAP.

Future Accounting Changes

There are no new pronouncements issued by the FASB that may materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements for future periods.

Financial Instruments, Hedging Activities and Other Instruments

The largest market risk the Company is exposed to are changes in the prices of copper and silver which will have a significant effect on revenue, cash flow and the value of concentrate receivables or payables because a significant portion of the Company’s sales are subject to a future pricing mechanism. Changes in metal prices will change both revenue and the value of concentrate receivables or payables. The Company does have a hedging policy which permits the Company to fix the sales price of concentrate to be produced in the future or for which concentrate has been sold and for which final settlement has not occurred.

For financial statement purposes, the Company records at fair value the amount of silver and copper in concentrate sold to its customer for which final prices have not yet been determined. At each month-end, the Company adjusts its revenue to account for expected future prices and the corresponding expected future revenue and cash flow. In order to do this, the Company must make estimates of the future prices expected to prevail when final settlement occurs. The Company uses published forward prices for the period of expected settlement to estimate these expected prices.

26

As at September 30, 2011, the Company had contracts outstanding to sell 3.97 million pounds of copper at an average price of $3.85 per pound and 90,000 ounces of silver at an average price of $19.00. These contracts mature at various dates from December, 2011 to February, 2013. All contracts are with the Company’s customer and have been designated as normal purchase and sale contracts. Accordingly, the effect of these contracts are accounted for in the period they are settled. The fair value of these forward sales contracts, if settled at September 30, 2011 metal prices, would result in a gain of approximately $1.4 million.

Forward Looking Statements

Cautionary “Safe Harbor” Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. With the exception of historical matters, the matters discussed in this report are forward- looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from projections or estimates contained herein. The words “believe”, “estimate”, “anticipate’, “expect”, and “project” and similar expressions are included to identify forward-looking statements. Such forward looking-statements include statements regarding future production levels and operating costs at the Troy mine, future levels of capital expenditures at both Troy and Rock Creek, the reserve and resource estimates at both Troy and Rock Creek, the adequacy of the financial resources and funds to cover operating and exploration costs at Troy and the cost of exploration at Rock Creek, the timing of certain litigation activities which have delayed exploration activities at Rock Creek, the adequacy of third party financing to complete certain corporate development activities, and the expectation that the Troy mine will be able to generate positive cash flow in future periods. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward looking statements include, among others:

• changes in copper and silver prices;
• the operating performance of the Troy mine;
• geological conditions at the Troy mine;
• the need for copper concentrate by copper smelters and the costs associated with selling such concentrate to the smelters;
• the ability of the Company to complete exploration activities at the Rock Creek project;
• activities of certain environmental groups opposed to the Company’s activities in the United States;
• changes in the planned Rock Creek project parameters;
• changes in estimates of the reserves and resources at all the properties owned or controlled by the Company;
• economic and market conditions;
• future financial needs and the Company’s ability to secure such financing under reasonable terms and conditions;
• changes in federal or state legislation and regulations governing our operations and projects;
• risks of future unknown lawsuits respecting future planned activities on our projects or past activities by the Company.

as well as other factors described elsewhere in our annual Form 10-K and the various regulatory filings done with United States and Canadian and provincial regulatory bodies which are available in Canada at www.sedar.com or in the United States on EDGAR. Future events and actual results could differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by, or underlying the forward-looking statements. Most of these factors are beyond our ability to predict or control.

Future events and actual results could differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by, or underlying the forward looking statements. We disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statement made here-in except as required by law. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward looking statements.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our earnings and cash flow are significantly affected by changes in the market price of copper and silver. The prices of both metals can fluctuate widely and are influenced by numerous factors such as demand, production levels, and world political and economic events and the strength of the US dollar. During the past eighteen years the average annual price of copper has ranged from a low of $0.71 per pound to a high of $4.48 per pound. Average annual silver prices over this same period have ranged from a low of $3.95 per ounce to a high of $41.96. Should the price of copper or silver decline substantially, the value of Troy and Rock Creek could fall dramatically and the future operation of Troy and the future exploration and development at Rock Creek could both be at risk.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we reported sales revenue of $48.2 million on sales of approximately 6.9 million pounds of payable copper and 0.780 million ounces of payable silver. During this period copper and silver prices averaged $4.20 per pound and $36.21 per ounce respectively. Had the price of copper or silver changed by $1.00 each, revenue would have changed by approximately $7.7 million.

A substantial portion of our cash and short term investments are invested in certificates of deposit or high quality government and corporate fixed income securities, all of which are denominated in US dollars. With the uncertainty in the financial markets the value of these fixed income securities could change. Approximately $1.7 million of our cash equivalents are in the form of certificates of deposit issued by a major Canadian chartered bank and are denominated in Canadian dollars which exposes us to some foreign exchange risk. The Company does not believe the risk is material.

Controls and Procedures

Management of the Company is responsible for adopting an internal control system that gives it and the board of directors reasonable assurance that the Company’s financial statements present fairly its financial position and activities. Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures that provide reasonable assurance the material information concerning the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries is appropriately disclosed.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information the Company is required to disclose in its periodic reports and other information filed under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended (“the Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and accurately reported within the time periods prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules. They include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and promptly communicated to the Company’s management, including its chief executive officer, its chief financial officer and other principal accounting officers, so such persons can make timely decisions regarding disclosure.

28

The Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rules 13 (a) - 15 (e) and 15 (d) – 15 (e). This evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the chief executive officer and its chief financial officer. Based upon this evaluation, the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer concluded that the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as at September 30, 2011 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act, is gathered, reported, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management of Revett Minerals, including the CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure as specified under U.S. and Canadian securities laws.

Internal Controls over Financial Reporting. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and disposition of assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of our assets are being made only in accordance with the authorizations of management and directors; and provided reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisitions, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

The Company has evaluated the design of internal controls over financial reporting and concluded they are designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements as at September 30, 2011.

Changes in Internal Controls. During the third quarter of 2011, no changes occurred in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have affected, or are reasonably likely to material affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
