Disclaimer
The following information may contain forward-looking statements. Forward-
looking statements address future events and conditions and therefore involve
inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from
those currently anticipated in such statements.
The technical information in this corporate presentation has been prepared in
accordance with the Canadian regulatory requirements set out in National
Instrument 43- 101 and reviewed on behalf of the company by Ross McElroy,
P.Geol. President and COO for Fission Uranium Corp., a qualified person.
The updated Mineral Resources as reported April 15, 2019 are as reported
from data up to and including 2018 drill programs and are reported within an
open pit design at a cut-off grade of 0.15% U3O8 and 0.25% U3O8 for resources
outside the pit that are potentially mined by underground methods. The
R1620E, R840W and R1515W zones are evaluated as underground at this time.
Technical Information
Certain of the technical information contained herein is derived from the April
15, 2019 news release entitled “Fission's PFS shows Low OPEX of US$6.77/lbs
U3O8, High IRR and Clear Growth,” describing results of a PFS completed on the
project – a copy of which is filed on the Company’s profile on SEDAR at
www.sedar.com. The PFS considers the PLS project as a stand-alone mine and
mill operation, which includes development and extraction of the R00E and
R780E zones (Triple R deposit), based on a number of inputs, estimates, and
results including the following (all values in C$ unless otherwise noted):
Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves are reported within the open pit
design at a pit discard cut-off grade of 0.15% U3O8 and outside the design at an
underground cut-off grade of 0.25% U3O8 based on a long-term price of US$50
per lb U3O8 and PFS cost estimates. Mineral Resources that are not Mineral
Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Moving Forward
Growing electric demands
and nuclear solutions
• Electricity demand growing at rapid pace and
increasingly integrated into daily life
• As demand for electricity increases, demand
for clean energy is paramount
• EV’s entering the marketplace by major
automobile manufactures
• Bitcoin POW mechanism annual electric
consumption same as Switzerland
Small Modular Reactors (SMR’s) –
implementation is a game changer
• Small Modular Reactors (SMR’s) - Game Changing
Technology
• Assembly line construction will standardize build and
reduce construction risk and decrease cost
(analogous to Ford’s Model T)
• Shorter construction time (3 years vs. 10 years)
• Transport modular components reduces major
transport requirements
• Small footprint allows smaller safety zones around
reactors
• Incremental power thus suitable for more countries,
more locations

Capital Cost • Does not require construction of a sand dyke and
plasticized cement slurry cut-off wall
• ~C$400M (20%) lower initial capex
• Eliminates pre-stripping
• Shorter construction period
LOM Production • Access additional 9.1M lbs of reserves
• 11% increase in LOM U3O8 production
• Extends mine life by ~1 year
Operating Costs • Modestly lower cash costs over LOM (~6%)
Permitting • Reduces permitting time and costs
• Potentially lower environmental impact and
reclamation costs
Project Economics • 15% higher LOM free cash flow (after-tax) • Higher IRR (26% vs. 21%)
