The company’s mineral resources as at March 2, 2016 are classified in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum’s “CIM Definition Standards - For Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves” in accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 43-101 “Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects" (the Instrument). Mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates reflect the company's reasonable expectation that all necessary permits and approvals will be obtained and maintained. (1kg/t eU3O8=0.1% eU3O8). The “e” symbol denotes that resource estimation is based on spectrometer data obtained in the field and confirmed by a smaller number of samples by laboratory chemical analysis.

Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have to demonstrate economic viability. Mineral resources are subject to infill drilling, permitting, mine planning, mining dilution and recovery losses, among other things, to be converted into mineral reserves. Due to the uncertainty associated with inferred mineral resources, it cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to indicated or measured mineral resources, including as a result of continued exploration.

The Mineral Resource Statement was prepared by John Arthur, FGS, CGeol (CP) and Peter Gleeson FAusIMM (CP) of SRK Consulting (UK) Ltd, both are Qualified Persons as defined by the CIM Code.

* Underground Mineral Reserves for Marianne-Marilyn and MSNE-Maryvonne are reported at a cut-off grade of 0.48 kg/t eU. Cut-off grades are based on a price of USD 70 /lb of U3O8 (USD 154 /kg U3O8) and uranium recoveries of 83.0 %, without considering revenues from other metals. Note Mineral Reserves include both Measured and Indicated Resources.

**Open Pit Mineral Reserves are reported within the MAD I licence and within a designed pit shell at a cut-off grade of 0.4 kg/t eU. Cut-off grades are based on a price of USD 70 /lb of U3O8 (USD 154 /kg U3O8) and uranium recoveries of 83%, without considering revenues from other metals. Mining modifying factors are 2% ore loss and 5% dilution at 0 kg/t grade. Note Mineral Reserves include both Measured and Indicated Resources.

In order to comply with the requirement that a mineral resource must have reasonable prospects for economic extraction, a third party (Roscoe Postle and Associates, “RPA”) prepared a preliminary conceptual Whittle pit optimization for reporting of mineral resources within the conceptual pit shell, based on a uranium price of $70/lb U3O8.

Mutanga’s mineral resources as at September 12, 2013 are classified in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum’s “CIM Definition Standards - For Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves" in accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 43-101 “Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects" (the Instrument). Mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates reflect the company's reasonable expectation that all necessary permits and approvals will be obtained and maintained.

The Mineral Resource Statement was prepared Mr Malcom Titley as the Qualified Person (QP) as defined by the CIM Definition Standards and Section 5.1 of National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, Form 43- 101F1 and Companion Policy 43-101CP).

Notes:

  • CIM definitions were followed for classification of Mineral Resources
  • Reported above a cut-off grade of 0.03% U308, based on a uranium price of US$75/lb
  • Bulk density is 2.65 t/m3
  • Numbers may not add due to rounding

The company’s mineral resources as at October 26, 2015 are classified in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum’s “CIM Definition Standards - For Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves" in accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 43-101 “Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects" (the Instrument). Mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates reflect the company's reasonable expectation that all necessary permits and approvals will be obtained and maintained.

Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have to demonstrate
