That's not the minibuffer, it's the echo area. It's only the minibuffer
when you're responding to a prompt down there.
The stuff that's displayed in the echo area is intentionally transient.
However, it's saved in the *Messages* buffer, so you can go there and
copy it.

The scene: you have just done (shell-command "pwd") or any other shell
command that just leaves a line in the minibuffer. You reach down
with the mouse to copy part of the output... you should be allowed to here.
