What are our criteria?
----- End of picture text -----
Focus on quality.... we apply strict criteria:
Grade:
-
~300 ppm U3O8 for paleochannel and sheetwash calcretes
-
~400 ppm U3O8 for hard rock open pit deposits (alaskites)
-
~1,000 ppm U3O8 for potential underground deposits
Minimum 18 Mlbs U3O8 per deposit with upside (15 year mine life) Minimum roduction rofile ~2.2 Mlbs er o eration p p p p No refractories
Resource inventory ~ 100 Mlbs U3O8 to enable offtake agreements
More attractive economics allows us to concentrate on deposits and discoveries with a real chance of success
