Extreme potential for prices to substantially overshoot incentive pricing

Supply Gap and New Production Capability
==> picture [12 x 15] intentionally omitted <==
Uranium supply growth is uncertain in the mid to long-term
-
Major suppliers reducing supply – Cameco, Kazatomprom
-
Rio – Ranger (ERA) and Rössing in severe downturn. Paladin on hold.
-
Production at current prices unsustainable. 80% production >$22/lb cost.
-
Production cutbacks failing to increase uranium price.
==> picture [12 x 14] intentionally omitted <==
Supply shortage is inevitable post 2023
==> picture [12 x 15] intentionally omitted <==
The shortage, once realised, has clear implication for the uranium price to overshoot forecast US$65-$70/lb incentive price levels
==> picture [12 x 14] intentionally omitted <==
Few companies have proven capability to build and operate large production capacity operations to help fill the looming shortage
A window of build a opportunity exists to fit-for-purpose company that is capable of capitalising on this once-in-a-decade opportunity

Vision For Growth
Two- Part Strategy for Growth
==> picture [15 x 16] intentionally omitted <==
Enhancing the Namibian cornerstone projects
- As Tumas 3 region is demonstrating – strong potential exists for new discoveries and resource expansion within current Namibian tenements
==> picture [15 x 16] intentionally omitted <==
Establish a multi-project, global uranium platform with a project pipeline capable of eventually supporting a multi-mine 5-10Mlb annual low cost production
To create a genuine independent, alternative supplier for utilities with proven management and technical team that can be trusted to deliver

Overall Namibian resources 126.4Mlb U 0 3 8 grading 321ppm
Projects prospective for two target types
-
Reptile: (EPLs 3496/97) – 991km[2 ] (100%)
-
Numerous new targets identified for drilling
-
Palaeochannel/calcrete targets (Langer Heinrich style) - 63.3Mlb U308/301ppm
-
Basement/alaskite targets (Rössing/Husab style) – 45Mlb U308/420ppm
-
Targeting 100Mlb U308+ in palaeochannels
-
in the grade range 300-500ppm eU308
Nova JV: (EPLs 3669/70) – 599km[2 ] (65%)
-
Strategic farm-in agreement with Japanese partner JOGMEC, spending A$4.5M in four years to earn 39.5%
-
Fertile palaeochannel identified at Namaqua
• Basement targets identified
==> picture [333 x 389] intentionally omitted <==
- The potential quantity and grade of the exploration target is conceptual in nature, and that there has been insufficient additional exploration to estimate an expanded Mineral Resource at the date of this presentation and whilst additional exploration is planned, it is uncertain if this will result in the estimation of an expanded Mineral Resource. Following a complete review and evaluation of calcrete associated mineralisation already identified on the Company’s tenements which commenced in December Quarter (Refer ASX Announcement 19 January 2017). The Company has a greater understanding of the stratigraphy of the palaeochannels which host mineralisation. (Refer also slide 18 Namibian Projects). This work has provided renewed confidence that mineralisation is likely to be identified in targeted but contiguous areas on our tenements. Targeted tonnage/grades are based on results and understanding from work carried out over past 10 years in this region. The exploration targets are planned to be tested over the next 12-24 months by an exploration program including geophysical field work and drill testing of targeted areas.
