CUR Consolidated Uranium Inc

Consolidated Uranium Inc. (“CUR”, the “Company”, “Consolidated Uranium”) (TSXV: CUR) (OTCQB: CURUF) is pleased to announce initial work programs (the “Program”) on its past producing US uranium projects, Tony M, Daneros and Rim, acquired from Energy Fuels Inc. (“Energy Fuels”) in late 2021. The work programs are being planned and implemented in conjunction with Energy Fuels, as the operator of the projects, and include historic mineral resource confirmation and expansion drilling as well as other activities relating to advancing the projects toward a production ready state. These mines are uniquely positioned in close proximity to the White Mesa Mill (Figure 1) owned and operated by Energy Fuels, with whom CUR has a Toll Milling Agreement.

Highlights:

Tony M Mine (Figure 2):

• Tony M is a large-scale, fully developed and permitted underground mine that produced nearly one million pounds of U3O8 during two different periods of operation from 1979-1984 and from 2007-2008.
• A June 2012 Technical Report authored by Roscoe Postle Associates Inc. detailed a mineral resource estimate for the project as set out in the CUR news release dated July 15, 2021. This mineral resource estimate is considered to be a “historical estimate” for CUR as defined under National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”).
• A surface drill program at Tony M using rotary and core drilling is expected to commence in Q2 2022, to verify the historical exploration drill hole data and facilitate the preparation of a current mineral resource estimate. The planned drilling program will follow the recommendations from SLR Consulting in the “Technical Report on the Tony M Project, Utah, USA Report for NI 43-101”, which was prepared for Consolidated Uranium, and dated October 15, 2021.

Daneros Uranium Mine (Figure 3):

• Daneros is a fully developed and permitted underground mine that produced nearly one million pounds of U3O8 during multiple periods of operation, most recently from 2010-2013.
• A March 2018 technical report, authored by Peters Geosciences, detailed a mineral resource estimate for the project as set out in the CUR news release dated July 15, 2021. This mineral resource estimate is considered to be a “historical estimate” for CUR as defined under NI 43-101.
• A surface drill program at Daneros using rotary and core drilling is being planned and will commence in Q2 2022. The proposed drilling program is designed to test extensions of the historical mineral resource estimate in order to aid in future mine planning.
• Concurrent with the surface drill program, the Company will be upgrading and re-starting the mine ventilation and monitoring system using state of the art equipment. This will allow ready access for underground drilling and for the future restart of mining at Daneros without delay.
• Additional permitting is underway to take the current small mine permit to a large mine permit which includes the expansion of the Daneros Mine footprint from less than 5 acres to approximately 45 acres.

Rim Uranium and Vanadium Mine (Figure 4):

• Rim includes a fully developed and permitted underground mine that was most recently in production in 2009.
• A previous mineral resource estimate prepared by Energy Fuels as described in the CUR news release dated July 15, 2021. This mineral resource estimate is considered to be a “historical estimate” for CUR as defined under NI 43-101.
• A surface drill program at Rim using core and rotary drilling is being planned and permitted, and will commence in Q2 2022, to test continuations and extensions of the historically defined mineral resources.

Philip Williams, CEO commented, “As discussed in our year-end update, we expect 2022 to be characterized as much by project-level advancement as by new M&A activity. Today’s announcement presents the first meaningful project-level work programs in the Company’s history as well as an important step in advancing these key US projects back toward production. We look forward to making similar announcements on other portfolio projects where we see strong opportunities to expand known mineralization and make other project level advancements. We believe the timing of advancing our US and other projects this year will dovetail nicely with the continued strength in the uranium market, which will ultimately require new mine supply to meet growing demand.”

Marty Tunney, President and COO commented, “The programs announced today strike the right balance between aggressively exploring and advancing our past-producing uranium and vanadium mines, while being measured and deliberate in our work programs. We view these efforts as important steps toward upgrading historic resources and advancing the projects with the goal of restarting mining when market conditions are right. More importantly, CUR is the only uranium company, other than Energy Fuels, with guaranteed access to the White Mesa mill, the only operating conventional uranium mill in the US. It has been a great experience working with Energy Fuels on designing these programs that could quickly supply feed to the mill, highlighting the benefits of this important partnership for CUR.”
