Forward-Looking Statements
FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION AND STATEMENTS:
Certain statements and other information contained in this presentation may constitute “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities
legislation or constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable United States securities legislation. Such information and statements are based on
UEX's current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding UEX‘s outlook for our future operations,
plans and timing for exploration activities, and other expectations, intentions and plans that are not historical fact. Statements concerning mineral resource estimates may
also constitute forward-looking statements to the extent they estimate mineralization that will be encountered if the property is developed. Such forward-looking statements
are based on certain factors and assumptions and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from future results
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from UEX's expectations include uncertainties
relating to interpretation of drill results and geology, additional drilling results, continuity and grade of deposits, participation in joint ventures, reliance on other companies as
operators, public acceptance of uranium as an energy source, fluctuations in uranium prices and currency exchange rates, changes in environmental and other laws affecting
uranium exploration and mining, and other risks and uncertainties disclosed in UEX's Annual Information Form and other filings with the applicable securities commissions in
Canada. Many of these factors are beyond the control of UEX. Consequently, all forward-looking statements made herein are qualified by this cautionary statement and there
can be no assurance that actual results or developments anticipated by UEX will be realized. For the reasons set forth above, investors should not place undue reliance on such
forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, UEX disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise forward-looking information, whether as a result
of new information, future events or otherwise.
NOTICE TO U.S. PERSONS:
The information in this presentation has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Canadian securities laws, which differ from the requirements of United States
securities laws. Information, including scientific or technical information, has been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for
Mineral Projects (“N.I. 43-101”). N.I. 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes
of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Canadian standards, including N.I. 43-101, differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC. For
example, the terms “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” are used in this publication to comply with the reporting standards in Canada. While those
terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the SEC does not recognize them. Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a
“reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is
made. Readers should understand that “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to their
economic and legal feasibility. Readers are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into mineral reserves.
In accordance with Canadian rules, estimates of “inferred mineral resources” cannot form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies. In addition, the definitions of proven
and probable mineral reserves used in N.I. 43-101 differ from the definitions in the SEC Industry Guide 7. Disclosure of “contained pounds” is permitted disclosure under
Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute reserves as in place tonnage and grade without
reference to unit measures. Accordingly, information contained in this publication describing the Company's mineral properties may not be comparable to similar information
made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.
QUALIFIED PERSON:
Technical information in this presentation has been reviewed and approved by Roger Lemaitre, P.Eng., P.Geo., UEX’s President and CEO, who is a Qualified Person as defined by
N.I. 43-101.

Hidden Bay PEA
- February 2011 NI 43-101 Preliminary Assessment Technical Report on the Horseshoe and Raven Deposits Hidden Bay
Project (“PEA”) prepared by SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. recommended the project be advanced to a preliminary feasibility
level including West Bear.
These results are included in a technical report on the Hidden Bay property with an effective date of February 15, 2011
available online under UEX’s profile at www.sedar.com.
- Base Case economics and cut-off grades calculated at $60 (US) per lb of U3O8.
- 16.6 million lbs (est.) of U3O8 could be extracted over a seven-year mine life.
(1) Projects in the mining sector have experienced rising costs, including rising capital and operating costs, during the past few years. The price of uranium has
declined since the date of the PEA which could negatively impact the results of the PEA. Projects in the mining sector have also experienced significant
fluctuations of costs, which could impact EBIT, NPV and IRR which have been calculated based upon historical costs. Accordingly, readers should bear these
factors in mind when reading the PEA and should not place undue reliance on the PEA.

- The PEA is preliminary in nature, includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to
have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and
there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral
reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Hidden Bay Strengths
- Ongoing exploration for new uranium deposits based on targets identified in our historical database and core review
program.
- Long-lead project studies are ongoing and are required to advance Horseshoe, Raven and West Bear deposits to
Prefeasibility when commodity prices signal a need for additional supply.
- Potential for the Horseshoe open pit to become a suitable tailings facility for a nearby mill.
- Significant resources near existing milling infrastructure operated by our largest shareholder (Cameco) and our joint
venture partner (AREVA) at Shea Creek.
- Horseshoe and Raven deposits proximity to Cameco’s Rabbit Lake mill (approximately 4 km) and AREVA’s McClean
Lake mill (approximately 22 km) may allow for toll milling.

Western Athabasca Vision
- Grow the existing Shea Creek
deposits:
- Kianna
- Anne
- 58B
- Collette
- Apply the knowledge gained
exploring on the Shea Creek
deposit to the neighbouring
Western Athabasca claims.
- Work collaboratively with AREVA
on advancing the Shea Creek
project towards production.
- Become the cornerstone of future
uranium production in the
Western Athabasca region.
17
18. TSX: UEX | www.uex-corporation.com
Growth Strategy
- Drill test priority basement targets at Hidden Bay identified during the 2014 review of the Company’s database and
historical core library. The database was compiled when typical unconformity-style deposits were being sought by previous
explorers.
- Continue the exploration and evaluation work required to delineate and develop economic uranium resources at the Shea
Creek deposits, while finding more deposits in the vicinity.
- Advance the Horseshoe, Raven and West Bear deposits toward a production decision.
- Explore and advance our other projects to discovery.
- Pursue a diversified portfolio of projects from early exploration through to development and production, which may include
outright property acquisitions or other business combinations.
