Impact of the Japanese earthquake

The full impact of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami is yet to be The full impact of the determined. Indeed the reactors at the Fukushima plant, the worst Japanese earthquake affected by the earthquake, appear to be stabilising, though, at the time is yet to be of writing, they are not yet fully under control. However, as the risk of determined. reactor damage becomes clearer, the question remains as to what impact the crisis will have on the rate of nuclear power expansion

elsewhere in the world and the associated impact on uranium demand. The answer to both questions may not be evident for 12 months. However, it appears likely that the nuclear expansion trajectory will be flatter, due to the possibility of constrained reactor life extensions, and increased reactor capex driven by an expectation of increased

regulatory requirements and associated increased construction time.

The 3, or possibly 4, Of the 13 reactors on Japan’s northern coast impacted by the quake and reactors lost in the tsunami, it was the 4 oldest reactors (pre 1980) that completely failed, Japanese earthquake and at least 3 of these, and possibly all 4, will remain permanently account for less than closed. There will likely be delays to restarting the other reactors that 1% of global uranium shut down automatically when the quake hit, due to damage of related demand. facilities and infrastructure.

Number of operating nuclear power plants by age in the world at 26 August 2010.*

About 75% of all reactors in operation today are over 20 years old, and 25% are over 30 years old.

(*Note that a reactor’s age is determined by the date when it was first connected to the grid.) Source: IAEA, 2010

Japan has 55 nuclear reactors with annual uranium consumption of 21.3mlbs, or about 12-13% of global uranium demand. With the shut down reactors accounting for 20% - 24% of the Japanese fleet, the

impact to global uranium demand is about 4-5mlbs on an annualised basis. In relation to the 3 or 4 reactors to be permanently shut down, annual uranium demand is estimated at 1 to 1.5mlbs. With annual

global uranium demand from nuclear power of ~185mlbspa, the destroyed reactors represent less than 1% of global uranium demand.

Germany has indicated it is temporarily shutting down its older reactors (commissioned pre 1980) to undertake a safety review. This has

resulted in the temporary shut down of 7 of its 17 reactors.

All countries will review their nuclear fleets for safety, and some reactors may be closed (temporarily or possibly permanently) if safety upgrades (‘backfits’) are required. At this stage, apart from Germany,

there is no indication of extended shut down delays. However, it should be noted that about 25% of the world’s reactors are over 30 years old (refer to chart in this report).

In the view of one former U.S. NRC commissioner (Victor Gilinsky), the

lessons of the current crisis will likely indicate that:

(1) older reactors have been built to lower safety standards than required today and not adequately upgraded. (2) the fundamental approach of regulators to nuclear safety will need to be examined with a view to taking a stricter approach to enforcement. In relation to older plants in the U.S., he points out,

that the NRC “must enforce up-to-date safety standards more

forcefully” reflecting his view that nuclear regulators have been

“overly accommodating to the industry they supervise”.

However, while there is potential for some impact to the marginal The uranium market growth of nuclear, the key forces driving the nuclear “renaissance” is expected to be appear to remain intact, viz: buoyed by strong fundamentals mid to • Competing fuel prices increasing (oil, gas, coal). long term. • Carbon dioxide pricing to be introduced. • Growth in world energy demand for electricity, currently expected to double in the next couple decades. • Uncertainty around renewable energy technologies market penetration. • Uncertainty around carbon capture and sequestration costs.

China, India, Russia, and the USA have the largest planned and proposed reactor programs (refer to World Nuclear Power Reactor table in this report) and aspects of these programs are being reviewed in response to the Japanese quake to see what lessons may be applicable.

In the days following the crisis, a number of high profile announcements

from various officials and governments around the world affirmed the

commitment to nuclear energy, setting the tone for the market

rebound.

In particular, comments from the U.S. that it is committed to nuclear Comments of U.S. energy buoyed markets in our view: “Regulators should press ahead commitment to with approving construction licenses for new nuclear power plants nuclear power despite Japan’s nuclear crisis, U.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu said support market. on March 15. Chu told a US House panel that “the American people

should have full confidence that the United States has rigorous safety

regulations in place to ensure that our nuclear power is generated safely and responsibly.” He added that the administration “is committed to learning from Japan’s experience.” Chu stated that he thought

The key lesson from A former chairman of India’s Atomic Energy Regulatory Board, A. Japan’s nuclear crisis Gopalakrishnan, reported in a major Australian newspaper, and echoing may point to the need Gilinsky’s point 2 above concerning the impact of regulators on the for, and benefit of, safety of the industry, warned that government secrecy, insularity and greater transparency lack of transparency was likely the key issue behind the crisis in Japan. and accountability of He indicated that, in his experience, the Indian nuclear regulator government, and “operates like a lapdog of the Department of Atomic Energy and the stricter oversight of Prime Ministers office.” He points to the need for, and benefit of, government agencies. transparency and accountability of government, and in particular the negative impact of deficiencies in closed oversight/supervisory systems.

Other events of the past 3 months include:

- The UK announced introduction of carbon pricing – the first country to introduce a price floor in relation to power generation. The floor price will be introduced from 1 April 2013 reportedly to drive investment into the “low-carbon power sector”. The commencement price will be £16/t of carbon dioxide (US$26/t)

rising to £30/t of carbon dioxide (US$49) by 2020.

- ARMZ bid for Mantra Resources (ASX:MRU, TSX:MRL) was back on track with a revised transaction announced 22 March - an all- cash offer of A$7.02/share, valuing MRU at A$1.02bn. This compares with the earlier offer from ARMZ (15 December 2010) of A$8.00/share (down 12.25%) previously withdrawn citing the

reactor crisis in Japan. With resource base of 101.8mlbs U O 3 8 (grading 0.042%, MII) the transaction value is ~US$9.80/lb. - Chinese state-owned CGNPC seeking to gain control of Extract Resources (ASX:EXT, TSX:EXT) through 'possible bid' for EXT parent, KAH. Original CGNPC 'possible bid' at A$10.61 share level - we expect a revised offer, and flow through bid for EXT.

A$9.00/share for EXT is equivalent to only ~US$3.80/lb (567mlb

potential resource target). - Aurora Uranium Assets Acquisition: Paladin (ASX, TSX:PDN) acquired wholly owned subsidiary of Fronteer Gold (TSX:FRG) Feb ’11 in a share deal valued at C$280.9m. This represents a resource valuation of US$1.90/lb (137mlbs U O ) for Michelin, Jacques Lake 3 8 and associated 4 other deposits in the CMB, Canada.

- Areva announced delays to Trekkopje (Namibia) ramp-up pushing full production back by at least 12 months to 2013 for the 6mlbpa U3O8 low grade, heap leach project.

- Kazakh uranium production increased to 46mlbs U3O8 in 2010, up from 36mlbs in 2009 (+29% yoy).

RCR March Quarter Featured Company Summary

AUSTRALIA Company Code Comment Australian-American Mining Corp. LimitedAIW Scoping AIW's uranium resource target for 2011 is 28-42mlbs grading 0.05-0.12% U3O8 at three projects in the US (NV,TX,NM), which would be a significant increase from the current 12.8mlbs. The development pipeline also includes drilling at gold and rare metal projects.

Aura Energy Limited AEE Advanced Exploration Aura could add to its +290mlb U3O8 resource inventory in 2011, via expansion at Häggån (Sweden), and an initial resource at Reguibat (Mauritania). The share price gained +50% in the three months to March 11 and could retrace this trend on good news.

Bannerman Resources Limited BMN DFS underway, advanced exploration Recent share price volatility reflects the high U price sensitivity of BMN's 212mlb Etango Heap Leach Project, Namibia. Rebounding sector sentiment and success in finding a development partner will be the key to BMN's re- rating from a current ~US$0.50/lb valuation.

Deep Yellow Limited DYL PFS, Advanced Exploration DYL has released interim data on its proposed 2.2mlbpa Omahola Project in Namibia, potential production 2014. Economics look very robust (~US$25/lb U3O8 opex) and are likely to be enhanced by the inclusion of the new Ongolo high grade discovery in the PFS due 2Q11.

Energy and Minerals Australia Limited EMA Development A pre-feasibility study of uranium production at the Ambassador Deposit (Mulga Rock Deposits, WA, total 27.1kt U3O8) is planned for 2011. Likely output of U3O8 is 1200tpa (2.6mlbspa) for capex A$260m, opex US$25/lb. Price target +A$0.31/share.

Energy Resources of Australia Limited ERA Producer Suspensded production at Ranger for 3 months 1H11 and further uncertain production outlook due to high water levels in tailings facility could see further production downgrades in 2011. RCR ERA valuation is A$11.14/share.

Energy Ventures Limited EVE Advanced exploration EVE's current and successful strategy is to identify undervalued brownfields uranium assets in the US. Resource base is now 38Mlbs U3O8 with good potential to increase in the near term. A feasibility study of the Aurora Deposit (OR) is expected in 2011.

Extract Resources Limited EXT Advanced exploration, DFS With a reduced Russian bid for Mantra back on the table, we think that China's CGNPC will follow the same path with Kalahari, EXT's major shareholder, given the huge strategic potential of EXT's Husab resource (potental >600mlb). We don't expect RIO to counter.

Greenland Minerals and Energy Limited GGG Pre-Feasibility Study The Kvanefjeld resource has increased by 35% and now stands at 350mlbs of U3O8, 6.5mt of total REO and 1.4mt of Zn. A definitive feasibility study (DFS) of production, including uranium, should start in 2H11. Share price target is A$1.46.

AUSTRALIA (cont.) Company Code Comment Northern Minerals Limited NTU Mid Exploration The re-named NTU (formerly Northern Uranium) now has the rights to explore for multiple commodities in the Tanami region (WA-NT), widening its focus to include rare earths and gold. With cash A$7.4m in December 2010, intensive exploration is planned for 2011.

Paladin Energy Limited PDN Producer PDN is expanding production at its African projects to 6mlbs U3O8 expected FY11, up from 3.5mlbs FY10. Potential 13.8mlbspa from 2014. The company has an active acquisition program (recent deals - NGM and Aurora) and exploration (100,000mpa drilling).

Peninsula Energy Limited PEN Prefeasibility Study Lance project (WY, USA; 100% PEN) continues to build momentum and looks well positioned to be part of the next wave of USA ISR projects. Economic prospects bolstered by expanding/upgraded resource base (Feb '11). DFS expected 1H11; production potential 2012.

PepinNini Minerals Limited PNN BFS, Advanced Exploration With the Crocker Well Uranium BFS (60% SinoSteel, 40% PNN, 11.7mlb resource) on hold, PNN's exploration focus is on the project's rare earths potental, as well as advancing a DSO iron ore resource in WA and scoping study on high grade gold mineralisation in N QLD.

Stonehenge Metals Limited SHE Early Exploration The Daejon Project (SHE 100%) is the largest uranium resource in South Korea. With a substantial tenement holding spread across four projects, SHE is looking grow on its near surface 65mlb U3O8 resource (grading 320ppm) during 2011 for a PFS in 2012.

Toro Energy Limited TOE BFS and Exploration The economics of Toro's Wiluna (WA) project (boosting resources to ~37mlb) will be enhanced with the recent purchase of a key tenement. Uranium sector weakness could provide a window of opportunity for acquisitions required to reach a resource target of 220mlb by 2015.

CANADA Company Code Comment CanAlaska Uranium Ltd CVV Mid Exploration CVV has a large strategic land position (1.0m Ha) in the Athabasca Basin, targeting large, high grade unconformity style deposits. Drilling 2010-11: Cree East: 7,650m (18 holes); Fond du Lac: 6,000m; Grease River: 1,200m; West McArthur TBA.

Ur-Energy Inc URE Permitting The Lost Creek ISR Project (WY) has a Draft Source Material Licence from the NRC, one of the final steps in the permit process. Production could be 1mlbs/yr U3O8 , cash cost US$20/lb. Lost Creek resource is 8.4mlbs U3O8 Indicated with additional targets on adjoining property.

Next Steps & Development Timeline: Initial environmental clearances have been received; a revised EIS (enlarged resource) will be lodged 2Q11. After further optimisation work aimed at cost reduction DFS is advanced - targeting heap leach 5-7mlbpa and improved recoveries, the DFS could be completed in 4Q11 or 1Q12. BMN’s strategy is to seek a production, min. 20 year mine life, capex US$638m, project development partner to facilitate debt and equity financing. A number of interested parties are currently conducting due diligence. Subject to financing, project commissioning is possible in 2014. opex US$42/lb, further optimisation on-going. Regional Exploration Potential: Only ~50km2 of total 500km2 highly prospective regional ground around Etango has been addressed to date. BMN’s recent regional exploration, has produced BMN seeking development partner, for DFS promising initial shallow intercepts at Cheetah (e.g. 10m @ 339ppm, 8m @240ppm), along strike and completion 1Q12, possible production 2014. to the north of Etango. Drilling is underway at Hyena, immediately south of Etango. Investment Comment: The Etango project is undoubtedly world scale, but relatively low grades and relatively high costs (US$42/lb cash costs) make it highly sensitive to the uranium price. Hence recent Excellent exploration potential for 'look-alike' dramatic share price movements post the Japanese earthquake. At US$60/lb the project looks 2 2 marginal, but with spot prices soaring above US$70/lb in late 2010, BMN was starting to attract strong discoveries - only 50km of total 500km explored to investor interest. With efforts to attract a strategic development partner likely to bear fruit in such a date, plus Swakop River and Botswana ground. positive environment, BMN shares performed strongly, more than doubling from around A$0.34/share in October 2010 to >A$0.80/share in February 2011. The recent dramatic events in Japan resulted in BMN’s share price falling significantly (as for all junior uranium explorers). However, with improved Etango's size will be a big plus in attracting a 'big sentiment, BMN’s share price has since recovered strongly. BMN’s 2011 focus will continue to be on brother' looking for long term supply security. opex reduction and increased recovery initiatives to improve project viability, while continuing its hunt for a ‘big brother’ partner seeking security of supply from a large scale project in a stable uranium BMN - Bannerman Resources Limited friendly country such as Namibia. Meanwhile, BMN’s exploration programs could yield higher grade S ore. If the uranium market continues to stabilise, and BMN achieves success in its DFS, exploration, 1.00 and in particular, its hunt for a strategic development partner, we see potential for share price upside 0.90 towards the valuation multiples seen in recent uranium M&A activity.

Investment Points Company Comment Overview: Deep Yellow is a uranium exploration and development company currently focused on DYL's focus is uranium exploration and advanced advanced resource development projects in Namibia and Australia (QLD). 2 project development - budget ~A$18mpa. Namibia: DYL holds 100% of 2,875km ~15km SW of PDN’s Langer Heinrich mine, plus JV tenements with Nova Energy (subsidiary of Toro). The Tumas-Tubas palaeochannel system is 80km length. DYL has drilled >500,000m in Namibia since 2007, and only addressed a fraction of the potential. Drilling ~10,000m-15,000m per month in Namibia, plus Omahola Project PFS: DYL has combined the shallow (~20m deep) INCA uraniferous oxide project and Australian (QLD) exploration. Cash ~A$18m. the nearby very shallow (surface to ~13m deep) Tubas Red Sands (“TRS”) into one production-focused project - the “Omahola Project”. A PFS is currently underway (SNC Lavelin). Flowsheet is based on Namibian Projects: current JORC resource is 87mlb, conventional acid leach and SX/precip. DYL has released interim PFS results based on production of 2.2mlbpa over a 12 year mine life. Main feed will be INCA (80%), balance lower grade TRS low cost free- includes Omahola (18.3mlb), Tumas-Tubas (50.8mlb) digging sand (beneficiation to >500ppm). Capex estimate US$324-336m. Importantly, the first pass estimate of opex is coming in at around US$25/lb, which is encouragingly low and reflects the low mining Development focus is now on Omahola Project targeting costs. Opex may well reduce further with the inclusion of higher grade recently discovered Olongo alaskite (see below). The finalisation of the PFS has been extended to 2Q11 in order to incorporate Ongolo as a 2.2mlbpa with U3O8 acid leach treatment plant, PFS potential ore source. A DFS is likely in early 2012 with a project start-up possible in 2013/2014, subject to underway, production target 2014. PFS/DFS outcomes and permitting. Recently DYL has confirmed high grade mineralisation (11m @ 1,064ppm) in scout drilling of the first of ten new INCA type targets south of the current INCA deposit. This could be very significant to boosting Omahola economics. Omahola interim PFS data: capex ~US$336m, opex Ongolo Alaskite Discovery: higher grade alaskite similar to Extract’s Husab Project (2km strike) ~US$25/lb, 12 year mine life discovered at north of Tubas tenement. Follow up drilling suggests consistent grades >400ppm over good widths (>10m) and ~600m zone width. This is a major potential value-adding development, since this higher Project milestones: Omahola PFS 2Q11, DFS ~1Q12. grade alaskite could possibly be fed to an Omahola mill. No problems treating Ongolo ore in the Omahola acid leach plant are expected. DYL has recently had five RC and one DDH rig on this project. The initial JORC resource estimate is imminent. Recent discovery of high grade alaskite at Ongolo and Shiyela Iron Project: Large scale (potential strike 8km) high grade magnetite discovery (two deposits so potential high grade INCA extensions should enhance far), ~4km SW of Tubas and ~35km form Walvis Bay Port. After >25,000m of drilling completed, initial grade Omahola project economics. estimates and JORC resource are expected in 2Q11. Preliminary scoping study is now underway. Mount Isa Project (QLD, Australia): Now the main focus of Australian exploration (1,688 km2). DYL is targeting an initial 11-18mlb resource, and sees potential for 26-33mlb in the med-long term. As uranium sector sentiment recovers, we expect solid Other Australian Projects: Napperby (NT): Target 13mlb resource, current 7.4mlb. Grass Roots gains in DYL share price leading up to the 2Q11 PFS. Exploration: DYL holds interests in >28,000 km2 tenements in NT, QLD. Currently low priority. Investment Comment: DYL’s previous exploration focus on achieving a ~100mlb resource in Namibia, has progressed to a predominant focus on becoming a significant Namibian uranium producer in 2014. The DYL - Deep Yellow Limited Omahola project, which could be in production within three years, demonstrates robust pre-PFS economics, 0.40 (the US$/lb opex is similar to that indicated for Extract’s massive 480ppm 15mlbpa Husab Project). Economics should be further enhanced by the exciting new Ongolo alaskite discovery. The Shiyela 0.35 magnetite project is interesting but not likely to excite uranium buffs. If, as we expect, some confidence re- builds in the uranium sector, and with the Omahola PFS due in 2Q11, we expect a solid re-bound from DYL 0.30 shares as a potential low cost Namibian producer with a big exploration pipeline.

Mulga Rock was discovered in 1980 by PNC rare metals (Sc, REE). Exploration (Japan) and developed as a uranium deposit – it had an historic, non JORC resource of 46,500t U3O8 at grade 0.11% U3O8. It is comprised of three known deposits – Ambassador, Emperor and Shogun. Mineralisation evolved via the deposition of metals from enriched groundwater. Host rocks are JORC inferred resource of U3O8 at MRD is 59.6mlbs sandstones and lignite below a clay cap, at shallow depths (40m to 70m). Aside from uranium, commodities grading 0.047%-0.059%, in upper and lower lignite, and include base metals (nickel, ), scandium and rare earth elements. Current JORC Inferred resource sandstone (June 2010). (Jun ’10) is 27.1kt (59.6mlbs) U3O8 grading an average 0.049% at cut-off 100ppm (sandstone) to 200ppm (lignite). The resource is based on recent and historic assays, and uranium-equivalent grades from EMA radiometric data. An upgrade to Indicated resource classification is currently hampered by remaining Sandstone-hosted uranium could be amenable to uncertainty with regard to sample integrity during previous drilling (Coffey Mining June 2010). Three relatively low cost ISR (In Situ Recovery). sandstone prospects within 10km of Ambassador have a combined Exploration Target of 7.6kt to 13kt U3O8 at grades of 240 to 650ppm eU3O8. Targets for other elements at Ambassador are 33.8-39.5kt Ni (0.24-0.28%); 15.2-17.9kt Co (0.11-0.13%); 1-1.2kt Sc2O3 (150-180ppm); and 14.3-21.2kt REO (0.22- Scoping Study (Nov '10): 12kt U3O8 from 2014-2025, 0.33%); these targets could be tested by further drilling, including diamond holes to twin existing air core split 50/50 between ISR and lignite open cut.

Initial drilling could be completed by mid 2011. Scoping Study (Nov ’10): Considers production at Ambassador of 12kt U3O8 between 2014 and 2025, i.e. Adjacent grassroots projects are prospective for MRD- 1.2kt or 2.6mlbs per annum at full production. Assumption is a 50/50 split (600tpa each) between open cut style, sandstone hosted and paleochannel uranium. mining of lignite and in situ recovery (ISR) of the sandstone-hosted uranium. Years 1 & 2 would be ISR only; ISR continues to Year 11 and open pit to Year 13. Processing is solvent extraction (SX) for ISR, and acid leach and RIP (resin in pulp) for lignite; uranium recoveries are 82% RIP and 65% ISR. Combined Conservative RCR valuation: NAV A$136m or capex is A$260m (or US$95 per lb of U3O8 nameplate capacity). Total opex is A$1.3bn, or A$0.7bn net of A$0.31/share (current A$0.20) with upside from de- byproducts such as base and rare metals (e.g. life of mine ~8kt Ni and ~4kt Co) – this means US$23/lb risking project during PFS from 1Q11. U3O8. A Pre-Feasibility Study of the MRD is expected to start in 1Q11 and include a field leach trial to test ISR potential, as well as advanced metallurgical and mineralogical studies of lignite-hosted mineralisation. Litigation: Yarri Mining disputes ownership of the MRD. It has applied to the High Court for permission to appeal the dismissal of its appeal to the Supreme Court of WA. The application will be heard 8 April 2011. EMA - Energy and Minerals Australia Limited Investment Comment: Based on the Scoping Study a preliminary DCF valuation is possible, of the Ambassador Deposit resource with upside from the other MRD deposits and uranium Exploration Target. 0.30 At a long-term U3O8 price of US$55/lb (current US$60/lb) and allowing for risk, we estimate NAV10 is A$130m or A$0.31/share fully diluted. There is potential to re-approach this share price by upgrading the 0.25 resource and de-risking the process route (improving recoveries, field leach trial) during the PFS in 2011. A general recovery of uranium stocks could occur, depending on how and when the Japan crisis is resolved. 0.20 Reserves and Resources/Mineralised Material

Overview: ERA has mined ore and produced uranium oxide at Ranger (NT) since 1981. Ranger is the ERA offers 100% exposure to uranium production and world's second largest uranium mine with normalised production of ~5.5ktpa of U3O8, equivalent to 12% of exploration in Australia (NT). global uranium mine supply. ERA also holds title to the Jabiluka deposit 22km north of Ranger. Ranger No. 3: Ranger is an open cut mine scheduled to operate till year end 2012 after which stockpiled ERA is the world's sixth largest uranium producer, ore will be processed through to 2020 (ERA lease tenure expires Jan 2021). ERA is reviewing potential for mining at Ranger (NT) since 1981. a possible underground mine and plant expansion. Expansion options include de-bottlenecking of the crushing and grinding circuit and a heap leach – potential production 2014 (to treat additional 15k to 20kt U3O8 within current pit and on stockpiles) over 5-6 years; DFS expected 2011. ERA indicates heap leach Ranger 3 Deeps exploration decline development production (capacity: 9mtpa low grade ore) to supplement Ranger mill production levels beyond 2013 after decision expected 2Q11 (75mlbs;10mt @ 0.34% U O ). mining ceases in pit 3. Ranger 3 Deeps’ exploration decline board development decision expected 2Q11 3 8 to allow for closer spaced exploration drilling; development expected 2H11; drilling 2012. Ranger 3 Deeps resource target is 15m-20mt containing 30k-40kt U3O8 - defined over 1.2km strike (open to the north) and Heap leach EIS submission expected 1H11; DFS 2011. 250m-500m depth. Resource statement includes ~34kt U3O8 associated with Ranger 3 Deeps. The 31 December 2010 statement of Reserves and Resources downgraded Ranger in-pit reserves from 15.1kt Production potential 2014. 15-20kt U3O8 resource. U3O8 to 9.3kt - a total of 5.8kt, 4.5kt of which was due to depletion and 1.3kt due to revisions to the reserve model following the infill drill program 2H10. The reserve grade fell to 0.21% (from 0.24% U3O8). Uranium contract price guidance: 2011 expected to be Jabiluka: The project remains on long term care and maintenance, and will not proceed without the above 2009 realised price of US$50.84/lb (RCR forecast consent of the traditional owners - the Mirrar. All regulatory permits are granted (some may need to be reviewed). We model mine production to commence by 2020, subject to approval. US$53.46/lb). Investment Comment: ERA earnings (NPAT 2010 A$47m) and NPV have been adversely impacted over the past 12 months due to the convergence of a number of factors. These include a reserve downgrade at ERA growth potential includes Jabiluka, further u/g Ranger (31 Dec) that lowered both residual tonnes and grade; high rainfall events constraining production; reserve increases at Ranger, regional exploration and a strong Australian dollar. These factors are all expected to continue to negatively impact 2011 NPAT, though offset by an expected higher realised uranium price (RCR 2011F NPAT A$52m). There have also success, potential heap leach, and underground mine. been delays to approvals for the exploration decline at Ranger 3 Deeps, heap leach and DFS which have negatively impacted sentiment. Our NPV valuation is A$11.14/share (10% discount rate, LT uranium price Jabiluka mining lease granted - awaiting development US$55/lb (post 2017), AUD/USD 0.82) down from A$15.08/share last quarter. Jabiluka start-up is consent from traditional land owners. 12 year mine life modelled from 2020 with 50% probability. ERA production guidance for Ranger is ~3,800t in 2011 – similar to 2010 levels (normalised production 5,200tpa). Given the risk of further production cuts, we have plus exploration upside. conservatively modelled 2011 production at 3,500t at this stage.

All four have cost. been acquired in the past 12 months, are in states with established mine permitting regimes, and have a history of exploration as well as current resources or previously defined mineralisation. Other projects are under evaluation for staking, acquisition or joint venture (JV). Resource base of 38mlb U3O8 with potential to increase Aurora Deposit (SE Oregon): Covering 526ha, located 5km N of the Nevada border, adjacent to the in near-term via verification of historical deposits and now-closed Bretz Mercury Mine. The deposit consists of a flat lying zone of uranium mineralisation in near-mine exploration. volcanic rocks beneath a shallow cap of sediments (0m-50m depth). There is a JORC compliant resource of 69.3mt @ 0.0248% eU3O8 for 37.9mlbs (100ppm, or 0.01%, cut off; where “e” means equivalent uranium grade calculated by downhole radiometrics). Of this, 97% is in the Indicated category, and 47% Lead project ready for feasibility studies and has a is in a higher-grade near surface core with a 300ppm eU3O8 cutoff (18mlbs grading 0.0444%). The potentially short timeframe to development resource envelope (low cutoff) measures ~800m by ~250m (within a 1.5km x 300m mineralised zone) and varies from <10m to +30m in thickness. Planned RC step-out drilling to the southeast of the resource, Aggressive exploration and development programme scheduled from April 2011, has potential to add +400m of strike. Currently, diamond drilling within the resource area (15 holes, ~1700m) could upgrade the resource’s status and provide samples for planned for 2011 and 2012 - spending +$16m. metallurgical and geotechnical testing. Development plans include processing options, cost estimates, confirmation of environmental baseline parameters and preliminary mine planning (potential open pit), Cash March 2011 forecast is A$2.1m, with funds leading to completion of a pre-feasibility study in 2011.

Ltd (51%) and African Energy Resources Ltd (4.4% and formerly 35.3%, ASX:AFR). EVE gained value through these holdings in 2010 and 1Q11. The market cap of AFR increased 15-fold from its yearly low to high (Feb ’11) due to the rising uranium price and the discovery of coal deposits in Botswana. EVE - Energy Ventures Ltd Exploration and development budget 2011 and 2012: Aurora feasibility studies, $2.25m; exploration 0.30 and resource drilling, $11m; admin and salaries $3.5m; split is $8.25m in 2011, $8m in 2012. Cash at Dec 10 was A$2.6m. Divesting the remaining interest in ASX:AFR could raise A$9m (current value). Investment Comment: EVE acquired Aurora for US$2m in May ‘10 when the uranium price was at 0.25 ~US$40/lb (close to the current 5 year low). This is equivalent to ~US$0.05/lb eU3O8 current resource. EV/resource is now ~$1.40/lb compared to the industry average of +US$3/lb - so there is potentially value 0.20 to be added in 2011-12 via ongoing resource definition, feasibility studies and the initiation of project permitting.

Investment Comment: As we first forecast in March 2008, GGG grew from a <$200m to >$500m 1.4 company (fully diluted), helped by strong REE and resurgent uranium markets, a softening of Greenland’s stance on uranium, and exploration success. In February, we revised our earlier (December 1.2 2010) mid-term share price target upwards from A$1.46/share, in view of increasing project confidence. Subsequently, the crisis in Japan and its potential negative effect on the nuclear industry and rare metal 1 prices sapped confidence sector-wide. With the crisis moving towards resolution, and assuming that legal proceedings with Westrip find in GGG’s favour, the share price may push back above A$1.46. The 0.8 resource expansion has proved to be a positive catalyst; others could be the DFS with further process improvements; permission to mine; project finance; and a move to full ownership of Kvanefjeld. 0.6 Share Price ($/Share) Price Share

Kvanefjeld and exploration targets, southern Greenland: there is considerable potential to extend the current resource (incl. 350mlbs U3O8 and 6.6mt of rare earth oxides). Mineralised lujavrite may form a continuous layer at depth, a theory supported by recent Zone 2 drilling (185m @ 1.2% TREO).

Development schedule for Kvanefjeld: The updated PFS is expected in 2Q11. As hoped, the Greenland Gov’t has given permission for a DFS, which should include pilot and demonstration level processing plants. Production is possible in 2015.

Investment Points Company Comment Overview: Formerly Peninsula Minerals (name change Nov ’10), PEN is listed on the ASX and has operated Focused on uranium - CY11 exploration and evaluation under the current management team since 2007 when key US projects were vended into the company. PEN is budget A$11m. exploring for uranium in the US, South Africa and Australia; and gold in Fiji. Lance Uranium Project (USA, WY): Located in the northeast part of the Powder River Basin comprises 13 Lance: PFS (Lyntek, Jul '10) potential production 2012 at project areas (12,000 ha) including the Ross and Barber prospects - targeting roll front style uranium. The project area was discovered in the ‘70’s by JV partners Nuclear Dynamics and Bethlehem Steel (NuBeth) and drilled 1.5mlbspa U3O8; C1 opex US$19.88/lb or US$13.52/lb between 1970 and 1979. NuBeth drilled 5000 holes (912,000m). PEN acquired the project 2H07 with a database with Vn credit; initial capex US$53m (total US$79.2m). of drilling and pilot plant data (from Ur-Energy). 22 roll fronts have been defined over a combined strike length of 305km (190 miles) containing 13 project areas with drill defined mineralization. Initial hydrology studies indicate good permeability and contained aquifer – prerequisites for ISR. Average deposit Lance mine permits and EIS lodged Dec '10. DFS GT’s 0.31-0.43ft% (cut-off 0.20). PFS (Lyntek) July 2010 confirms development potential for satellite production expected 1H11. Construction 2H11. LOM 13 years. Debt and a centralised processing plant at Ross from 4Q12 with capacity to produce up to 3mlbspa U3O8, commencing and offtake discussions at advanced stage. at 1.5mlbpa. Initial production is targeted from Ross and Barber. Lance project resource target is 95 to 145mlbs U3O8 – in addition to current JORC resource. PEN drilling 1Q11 is aimed at uplifting resources for DFS. The outlook for permitting in Wyoming continues to improve: Uranium One (TSX:UUU) received its NRC Lance resource upgrade to 33mlbs U3O8 (+31%) at operating license (Oct ’10) for Moore Ranch; and 2 other companies (TSX: URE, URZ) are expecting NRC 0.045% (200ppm cut-off, Feb '11). Additional resource permits in the next few months. URE received a draft Source and Byproduct Materials License from the NRC Jan ’11; URZ Permit to Mine (WDEQ) received Jan ’11. target is 95-145mlb U3O8 grading 0.036-0.05%. Karoo Project (South Africa): Located in the Karoo Basin of the Western, Eastern and Northern Cape Provinces; tenements comprise 6 project areas (198,000 ha) with defined U-Mo mineralisation across stacked sandstone units identified from surface to 40m. The region hosts Areva’s historic Ryst Kuil uranium mine (est. NRC permits potential to be granted to 2 further 40mlbs @ 0.1% U3O8). Three of PEN’s project areas host historic resources drilled by JCI and Union Carbide companies with WY ISR projects 1H11. (~1,300 holes) in 1970-80’s which defined high mineralisation grades of 0.07 to 0.14% U3O8. PEN has an exploration target of 90 – 150mlbs U3O8 grading 0.07 to 0.14%. Drill results (1Q11) confirm high grade uranium: Karoo Project: shallow, high grade mineralisation from intercepts include 2.1m @ 0.15% U3O8 and 1.9m @ 0.15%. Initial JORC resource expected 1H11. Mid-term surface to 40m. 2012 resource target 30mlb. 10 priority resource target 30mlbs U3O8 (2012). Investment Comment: PEN remains on-track for completing the Lance DFS and timely permitting of its WY targets. Initial drill results (1Q11) confirm high grade based ISR project, with production visibility 4Q12. The “nuclear renaissance” is expected to regain momentum, uranium. notwithstanding recent events in Japan. Lance base case NPV A$165m (A$0.08/share; US$50/lb realised uranium price, US$7.50/lb). With full de-risking of Lance, post commissioning, PEN NPV is A$0.10/share fully diluted (discounting a realised uranium price of US$50/lb, AUD/USD 0.80 and 10% discount PEN - Peninsula Energy Limited rate). Assuming a US$60/lb uranium price, post commissioning, NPV rises to A$0.13/share fully diluted. WY is a uranium friendly state, and combined with PEN’s experienced permitting consultants, and new streamlined US 16 permitting procedures, the company is well positioned to fast track regulatory approvals. 14 Reserves and Resources/Mineralised Material 12 Code for reporting mineral resources - Australian: (JORC)

Investment Points Company Comment Overview: TOE listed on the ASX in March 2006 and is a pacesetter in advancing calcrete style uranium 100% uranium focus. Expl. + eval. budget ~A$16m pa. projects in Australia - Wiluna (WA) is at the BFS stage. Toro’s Aspirational Targets: TOE has ambitious growth targets: 220mlb U3O8 resources by 2015 Cashed up (est. A$32m Mar '11) to fund Wiluna BFS, (currently 30mlb) and production of 5.5mlbpa by 2020. Meeting these will require TOE (backed by major Wiluna resource expansion and exploration/acquisitions. shareholder Oz Minerals - ~A$1.4bn cash) to look beyond the current core asset at Wiluna. Wiluna Regional Resource Consolidation: We have previously highlighted the potential for TOE to increase its Wiluna resource base to >30mlb U3O8 in a 40km radius of Wiluna, with strategic Potential Wiluna production mid 2013: ~2.0mtpa ore, acquisitions/alliances. TOE has now achieved this to great affect. Our modelling suggest this regional alkaline tank leach, ~2.2mlbpa output. consolidation will increase forecast Wiluna Project NPV by ~A$25m (~2.6cps). The Acquisition of the Firestrike uranium discovery in 4Q09 was the first step. Then came the purchase of 100% of the Dawson-Hinkler Well calcrete uranium project (20km W of Centipede) from U3O8 Ltd (ASX:UTO), for a Wiluna BFS underway, draft EIS lodged, resource A$1.00/lb resource (A$6.2m) and a 2% royalty for production in excess of 6.2mlb. Recently, the final key upgrade expected 2Q11. piece of the Wiluna jigsaw puzzle has been put in place with the proposal to acquire key tenements which cover a uranium mineralised zone called Millipede, bordering TOE’s Centipede deposit. There is TOE's regional resource consolidation strategy for not much doubt, based on continuity of mineralisation and past drilling, that these tenements contain 4- 5mlb U3O8 at similar grades to Lake Way and Centipede (400-600ppm). The purchase consideration of Wiluna signifcantly enhances Wiluna Project value. A$4.5m plus a 2% NSR on production of >4.5mlb from the tenements is pitched at a similar level (~US$1.00/lb) to the Dawson-Hinkler Well acquisition, and is probably better value given the likely higher Purchase of strategic Norilsk tenements (target 4-5mlb grades and proximity to existing resources. resource) for A$4.5m is very positive. Wiluna Project Status: A PFS was completed Sep ’08, followed by Optimistation Study in Sep ’09. Wiluna BFS: BFS is now underway. The milestone Environmental Management Review Programmme/Draft Environmental Impact Statement was lodged with the EPA (WA) in March 2011. This TOE's Wiluna resource base should now exceed 37mlb should trigger the important public exhibition phase. Resource upgrade due 2Q11. The BFS should be completed 4Q11, which could see a go-ahead decision in 2Q12, and potential production mid 2013. U3O8, base case valuation is A$0.15/share. Other Exploration: Lake Mackay (WA): Theseus discovery is promising - Potential buried palaeochannel – will need to wait until 2Q11 for drilling due to wet season. TOE has extensive U TOE can be seen as OZ Minerals' (ASX:OZL) uranium exploration portfolio in SA, NT, WA and Namibia (~43,000km2). Mount Woods (SA): TOE has 100% U division - an acquisitive strategic vehicle. rights for OZL’s currently aggressive exploration for IOCGU targets – recent interesting U-only hits. Investment Comment: We think that TOE’s ambitions in the uranium sector go beyond Wiluna, which is a challenging first production project. It demonstrates viability (particularly with the smart regional OZL likely to bankroll Australian/overseas acquisitions to acquisitions) with long term prices >US$65/lb. Our base case evaluation for TOE of A$0.15/share is reach TOE's stated 220mlb resource target. based on NPV’s at US$60/lb long term U price and A$ back to US$0.82. At US$70/lb, NAV rises to A$0.23.

Its most advanced uranium URE is focused on uranium in Wyoming, where it holds projects are roll front style with in-situ recovery (ISR) potential in the Great Divide Basin, WY. resources (equity) of 25.6mlbs U3O8. Wyoming ISR Projects (Great Divide Basin): URE holds +50,000 mineral acres of claims in Wyoming. Its key priority is to advance Lost Creek. Other, earlier stage projects include LC North and South, Lost Soldier, EN (Eagles Nest) and the Bootheel JV. Historic resources total +60mlbs U3O8. Lost Creek ISR planned rate 1mlbspa U3O8 with mill Lost Creek: The resource is defined along a 4.8km (3 miles) strike with mineralisation occurring in 4 main capacity 2mlbspa, low opex of US$19.66/lb, pre- sandstone horizons between 96m (315 feet) and 213m (700 feet) deep. Mineralised beds average 4.9m (16 feet) thick. URE expects leach recovery of 80%. The most recent NI 43-101 Preliminary Assessment (March production capex $35.1m (spent $24m to date). 2011) considers 6 year life of mine (LOM) pre-production capex of US$35.1m (with 10% contingency for ISR plant [$17.5m], plus engineering, drilling, etc), life-of-mine capex $85.6m, cash opex of US$19.66/lb for Draft NRC Source Material Licence for Lost Creek production of 1mlb/yr U3O8 (plant capacity 2mlb with potential for satellite or toll treatment). Considerable received in January 2011, permitting risk reduced. capex on infrastructure and equipment ($24m) has already occurred. Initial extraction will be from Mine Units #1 and #2 in the HJ horizon (delineated by +200km down-hole drilling), which each consists of multiple roll- fronts. URE’s development plan is to always have three units, or three years’ production (at 1-2mlbs U3O8 per Wyoming is considered uranium friendly and has ISR unit), ahead of permitting and mining. Definition of a third mine unit is planned to include both the HJ and mines at Highlands/Smith Ranch (CCO). underlying underlying KM horizon (potential cost of delineation drilling $13-17m). Lost Creek is in the advanced stages of permitting, and equipment purchasing has started. The NRC Supplementary EIS is expected shortly, as is the NRC Source Material Licence of which a Draft was issued in Jan 2011. Final Grassroots exposure to unconformity style uranium permits from the BLM and WDEQ (Permit to Mine) are expected to follow. In terms of expansion, there are targets in the Thelon and Baker Lake Basins, CAN, and exploration targets at Lost Creek, LC North and LC South. Drilling in 2010 (159 holes for 101.270ft or sandstone-hosted deposits in Nebraska. 30.9km) intersected multiple regional redox fronts. A further 2000-3000 holes are recommended ($15-20m). At Lost Soldier, 22.5km NE of Lost Creek. mineralised horizons consist of 14 sand units at 30m to 137m depth. URE may submit Lost Soldier NRC and WDEQ applications as an amendment to the Lost Creek licences. Cash position at Sep '10 was C$34.7m. Plans for Investment Comment: URE passed our Dec ’10 share price target of C$2.52/share (set when C$30m financing at $3/share on hold due to market ~C$2.20/share), peaking at C$3.35 in January before retreating to the current ~$2. The rise was on the back of volatility and new Lost Creek economic assessment. a buoyant uranium price and lessening risk after issue of the Draft Source Material Licence. The subsequent pullback and bounce was due to the Japan crisis and perhaps influenced in URE’s case by a 14% decrease in Indicated resource pounds at Lost Creek (in 2011 Preliminary Assessment). Based on production at Lost Potential for return to +C$2.50/share at U O US$55/lb. 3 8 Creek with an expanded resource (current 9.4mlbs plus exploration upside), NPV10 for 1mlbspa U3O8 could be C$151m (at C/US 0.90) at LT contract price US$55/lb (current US$60/lb). With other assets, NAV is C$263m URE - Ur-Energy Inc or C$2.50/share, with upside from increasing production to 2mlbspa.
