Uranium Market Review – Uranium Price
Uranium spot price is still at a low level and in the transition from the downward cycle to the upward cycle
Data source: World Nuclear Association
==> picture [709 x 216] intentionally omitted <==
Uranium Market Review - Uranium Demand
Stable and strong demand from nuclear reactors
-
Uranium consumption has returned to pre-2011 levels.
-
More reactors to be built in Asia and the Middle East with 52 reactors under construction and more planned reactors.
-
Uranium requirements expected to continue to grow. It is expected that China will approve 6-8 new reactors each year.
==> picture [368 x 172] intentionally omitted <==
By 2040, global uranium demand is expected to increase by 47% from 2020 levels

Uranium Market Review - Mine Supply
Uranium supply cycles lagged behind uranium price cycles
-
The supply upward cycle continued to the year of 2012 since the Fukushima in 2011
-
The change of supply cycle from
-
the upward to downward happened in 2016.
-
Now it is in the supply downward cycle, which is expected to continue.

Uranium Market Review - Mine Supply
Global Supply Cuts
Producers have been taking self-help measures
-
47Mlbs supply reduction from major uranium mines since 2016
-
14Mlbs supply cannot recover due to production ceased or shutdown (Rabbit Lake, Cominak and Ranger)

Uranium Market Outlook
Another uranium price upward cycle is approaching
-
Uranium requirements will grows steadily with cumulative uncovered requirements of about 1.4 billion pounds to the end of 2035.
-
Uranium supply is still in the downward cycle and it will continue.
-
Uranium price will transit to the upward cycle as the current downward cycle continues with the certain increase in uranium requirements from nuclear reactors.
UxC estimates that cumulative uncovered requirements are about 1.4 billion pounds to the end of 2035

-
EME’s flagship project is the sandstone-hosted Bigrlyi Uranium-Vanadium Deposit.
-
A prefeasibility study was completed in 2011 with key parts being progressively updated.
-
Development work was suspended in 2012 due to Fukushima-related market downturn.
-
Recent work has significantly expanded the vanadium exploration target.
-
EME’s Bigrlyi Project well positioned to take advantage of recent uranium market interest and an anticipated market turn-around.

Northern Territory Projects – Bigrlyi Modelling

During the year, the mineralisation model for uranium along the Anomaly-4 to Anomaly-9 trend was updated including construction of new uranium wireframes.

Northern Territory Projects – Bigrlyi Mining Study
==> picture [586 x 342] intentionally omitted <==
The technical and economic advantages of an open-pit-only mining operation at Bigrlyi were investigated with development of improved open pit designs aimed at the of mineable resources within maximising proportion geotechnical constraints. Further refinements to optimise the waste to ore ratio are planned.

Northern Territory Projects – Bigrlyi Deposit Model
==> picture [371 x 427] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [109 x 37] intentionally omitted <==
A new model was geological developed for the Bigrlyi deposit which belongs to the Saltwashtype of tabular sandstone-hosted U-V deposit commonly found in the Colorado Plateau of USA.
Uranium and vanadium
mineralisation at Bigrlyi is strongly associated with detrital-origin, clay-rich lithic clasts which are heterogenous in nature casting doubt on previous groundwater models of mineralisation.
The new model expands potential mineralisation sites in ancient river channel sediments upstream and downstream of the presently known deposit.

Competent Persons’ Statement
The information in this report relating to mineral resource estimates for the Bigrlyi Deposit is based on information compiled by Arnold van der Heyden BSc, who is a Member of The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (MAusIMM). Mr van der Heyden has more than five years relevant experience in estimation of mineral resources and the mineral commodity uranium. Mr van der Heyden is a full time employee of Helman & Schofield and takes responsibility for the resource estimation. Mr van der Heyden has sufficient experience relevant to the assessment of this style of mineralisation to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves – The JORC Code (2004)”. Mr van der Heyden consents to the inclusion in the presentation of the matters based on his information in the form and context in which it appears.
The Mineral Resource estimate for the Bigrlyi Deposit was originally compiled and announced utilising parameters from the 2004 JORC Australian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves. This information was prepared and first disclosed to the ASX on 28 June 2011 under the JORC Code 2004. It has not been updated since to comply with the JORC Code 2012 on the basis that the information has not materially changed since it was last reported.
Information in this presentation relating to exploration results, data and cut-off grades is based on information compiled by Dr Wayne Taylor, MAIG. Dr Taylor is a full time employee of Energy Metals. Dr Taylor has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity being undertaken to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves – The JORC Code (2012)”. Dr Taylor consents to the inclusion of the information in the report in the form and context in which it appears.
