Disclaimer
This presentation contains “forward-looking statements,” within the meaning of applicable securities laws, regarding events or conditions that may occur in the future. Such
statements include without limitation the Company’s timeframe for events leading to and culminating in the completion of commissioning and ramp up of production at Lost Creek;
ability and timing of making product deliveries; the ability and timing of the Company to close on additional project financing as needed; the technical and economic viability of
Lost Creek (including the production and cost projections contained in the preliminary analysis of economics of the Lost Creek Property); timing and completion of closing of the
Pathfinder (PMC) transaction; the ability to complete additional favorable uranium sales agreements and ability to reduce exposure to volatile market; the potential of exploration
targets throughout the Lost Creek Property (including the ability to expand resources); the further exploration, development and permitting of exploration projects including,
following a closing, at PMC projects and production projections for PMC projects; the long term effects on the uranium market of events in Japan in 2011 including supply and
demand projections; and whether a re-rating of the Company will occur with production. These statements are based on current expectations that, while considered reasonable
by management at this time, inherently involve a number of significant business, economic and competitive risks, uncertainties and contingencies. Numerous factors could cause
actual events to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause such differences, without limiting the generality of the following, include:
risks inherent in exploration activities; volatility and sensitivity to market prices for uranium; volatility and sensitivity to capital market fluctuations; the impact of exploration
competition; the ability to raise funds through private or public equity financings; imprecision in resource and reserve estimates; environmental and safety risks including
increased regulatory burdens; unexpected geological or hydrological conditions; a possible deterioration in political support for nuclear energy; changes in government regulations
and policies, including trade laws and policies; demand for nuclear power; weather and other natural phenomena; delays in obtaining or failures to obtain required governmental,
environmental or other project approvals; and other exploration, development, operating, financial market and regulatory risks. Although Ur-Energy Inc. believes that the
assumptions inherent in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on these statements, which only apply as of the date of this
presentation. Ur-Energy Inc. disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise.
Cautionary Note Regarding Projections: Similarly, this presentation also may contain projections relating to an extended future period and, accordingly, the estimates and
assumptions underlying the projections are inherently highly uncertain, based on events that have not taken place, and are subject to significant economic, financial, regulatory,
competitive and other uncertainties and contingencies beyond the control of Ur-Energy Inc. Further, given the nature of the Company's business and industry that is subject to a
number of significant risk factors, there can be no assurance that the projections can be or will be realized. It is probable that the actual results and outcomes will differ, possibly
materially, from those projected.
The attention of investors is drawn to the Risk Factors set out in the Company's Annual Information Form and Annual Report on Form 40-F, dated February 27, 2013 which are
filed, respectively, with the regulatory authorities in Canada on SEDAR and with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on EDGAR. (www.sedar.com and
http://www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml)
Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated or Inferred Resources: the information presented uses the terms "measured", "indicated"
and "inferred" mineral resources. United States investors are advised that while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission does not recognize these terms. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated mineral resources
will ever be converted into mineral reserves. United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists, or is economically
or legally minable.
John Cooper, Ur-Energy Project Geologist, P.Geo., SME Registered Member and Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, and Catherine Bull,



*Source: UxC Uranium Market Outlook

In 2012 world nuclear industry
consumption was ~180 million lbs. and
production was only ~152 million lbs.
Today there are approximately 66
nuclear plants under construction in
13 countries, 160 planned and 319
proposed



Renewed prospect of restarting Japan’s reactor fleet (projected first half of 2014)



Saudi Arabia announced plans for 16 new reactors



8

Global Supply Picture is Dynamic
 HEU agreement to expire this year


Provides 13% of world and 45% of US annual supply

 Today’s capital markets present a significant obstacle to
development of new large scale mining centers
 Current uranium market price does not incentivize new supply
development or sustain high cost conventional producers
 Large scale production growth is being curtailed for the foreseeable
future


Cigar Lake, Olympic Dam, Trekkopje, Matoush,
Langer Heinrich stage 4, Imouraren and others

 New production will only come from a limited number of low cost,
scalable projects


9

The US Uranium Market
 US demand is not met by US production



US mines produce ~ 4M lbs of uranium/yr1
US utilities consume ~55M lbs of uranium/yr1

 Ur-Energy is well positioned to capitalize on this opportunity

The Lost Creek Property
Upgrade to the NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate on the
Lost Creek Property (as of November 18, 2013 News Release)
Measured: 4.85 Mlbs eU3O8 (in 4.29 Mt @ 0.057%)
Indicated: 3.80 Mlbs eU3O8 (in 4.04 Mt @ 0.048%)
Inferred: 4.74 Mlbs eU3O8 (in 4.72 Mt @ 0.051%)
* Based on grade cutoff of 0.02% eU3O8 and a GT cutoff of 0.3




Many of these exploration targets remain conceptual in nature.
There has been insufficient exploration to define mineral resource
estimates at all such exploration targets. It is uncertain if further
exploration will result in the additional target areas being
delineated as further mineral resource.

Exploration targets within the Lost Creek
Project and adjoining projects provide
potential of additional resources U3O8
Lost Creek Project – 4,254 permit acres
Adjoining projects – ~38,000 acres



14

Preliminary Economic Assessment
April 30, 2012 PEA* updates resources and economics


Extended life of mine to 8 – 10 years



Mineral resource increase from February 2012 PEA



45% Increase in measured and indicated resources
42% Increase in inferred resources

Estimates direct operating costs at US $16.12/lb






Lowest quartile of all uranium producers
Cost including sustaining development, approximately US$23.00/lb
Full project capital cost recovery US$36.52/lb



Project internal rate of return (IRR) at 87%



Capital requirement in lowest quartile of all developing uranium production
facilities

*Preliminary Economic Assessment of the Lost Creek Property, Sweetwater County, Wyoming Prepared by Ur-Energy Inc. – April 30, 2012
(posted on SEDAR and EDGAR). Updated PEA to be filed on or before January 2, 2014.
Cautionary Statement: This PEA is preliminary in nature, and 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. The estimated mineral recovery used in this PEA is based on
both site-specific laboratory recovery data as well as URE personnel and industry experience at similar facilities. There can be no assurance that recovery at this level
will be achieved.
