About Energia Minerals

Energia Minerals Limited is positioned to capitalise on the growing demand for nuclear energy as a key component of the alternative energy mix. Energia Minerals is a highly focused uranium exploration and development company with an exciting portfolio of projects in Australia and Italy covering over 5,500km[2] in 21 granted tenements and 9 under application.

In the Carnarvon Basin Uranium Province of Western Australia the Company has an Inferred Mineral Resource of 13Mt @ 320ppm U3O8 for 9.2Mlb of U3O8 (at 100ppm U3O8 cut-off) located to the south of Paladin’s Manyingee (24Mlb) and Cauldron’s Bennett Well (4.8Mlb) deposits.

Competent Person Statement:

Information in this release that relates to Exploration Results and the Exploration Target are based on information prepared by Dr Leigh Bettenay who is a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists and a full-time employee of Energia Minerals Limited. Dr Bettenay has sufficient experience which is relevant to the styles of mineralisation and types of deposits under consideration and to the activities being undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2004 Edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”. Dr Bettenay consents to the inclusion in this release of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.

The Mineral Resource at Carley Bore is based on information compiled by Dr Leigh Bettenay who is employed by Energia Minerals Limited and Mr Neil Inwood who is employed by Coffey Mining Limited. Mr Inwood visited the site from 23-25 April 2010 and Dr Bettenay last visited the site at this time also. Dr Bettenay is the Competent Person responsible for the drilling assay database, QA/QC validation and density measurements. Mr Inwood is the Competent Person responsible for the resource estimation and classification.

Both Dr Bettenay and Mr Inwood have sufficient experience which is relevant to the styles of mineralisation and types of deposits under consideration and to the activities being undertaken to qualify as Competent Persons as defined in the 2004 Edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”.

Both Dr Bettenay and Mr Inwood have consented to the inclusion in this release of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.

The information in this presentation concerning the Carley Bore Mineral Resources and Exploration Target is a high level summary of historical information previously released in the public reports issued by Energia Minerals.

That information was prepared in accordance with JORC and was issued with the prior consent of Competent Persons.

Competent Person Statement: The information in this release that relates to Exploration Results and/or Mineral Resources is based on information prepared by Dr Leigh Bettenay who is a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists and a full-time employee of Energia Minerals Limited. Dr Bettenay has sufficient experience which is relevant to the styles of mineralisation and types of deposits under consideration and to the activities being undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2004 Edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”. Dr Bettenay consents to the inclusion in this release of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.

Exploration Target: The Exploration Target is conceptual in nature and has yet to be fully drill tested. There has been insufficient exploration (ie. close-spaced drilling) to define a JORC compliant mineral resource and it is uncertain if future exploration will result in the determination of a further mineral resource within it.

The release, publication or distribution of this presentation in jurisdictions outside of Australia may be a violation of application laws.

Why Invest in EMX?

  • High quality geographically diverse uranium exploration portfolio - over 5,500km[2] , majority granted tenements – all 100% EMX owned.

  • Inferred Resource estimate at Carley Bore of 9.2Mlb U3O8 with an Exploration Target of 15-25Mlb and strong potential to grow within the 60km long palaeochannel.

  • Resource strike length 3.25km

  • Remainder of the 60km long palaeochannel largely untested

  • Awaiting assays for 6,600m of drilling to potentially extend the resource area

  • Initial metallurgical tests returned >80% recovery , with low acid consumption – promising indication for in situ recovery project economics.

  • Large tenement package in South Australia with potential for sandstone hosted and IOCG-U style mineralisation with drill targets ready for site heritage surveys.

  • In Italy, we’re continuing stakeholder engagement to obtain the grant of the tenements.

  • Current Enterprise Value per pound resource – well below industry discovery costs.
