OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS

The Company's significant events and highlights for the nine months ended September

30, 2020 and to the date of this MD&A are as follows:

Dewey Burdock Project - In January 2020, the Company filed a National

Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101") Technical Report and Preliminary Economic

Assessment ("PEA") for the Dewey Burdock Project. The base case economic

assessment resulted in a pre-income tax internal rate of return ("IRR") of 55% and

a pre-income tax net present value ("NPV") of $171.3 million when applying an

eight percent discount rate. Using the same discount rate, the post-income tax IRR

is 50% and the post-income tax NPV is $147.5 million.

In the third quarter of 2020, the Company funded financial assurance bonds for

its Class III and Class V UIC permits for the Dewey Burdock Project. Funding the

financial assurance bonds is required before the EPA can issue the final permits.

In order to fund the financial assurance bonds, the Company received loans

totaling $1,100,000 from two minority shareholders that bear interest at 12% per

annum, are unsecured, and mature February 5, 2021.

Private Placement - In April 2020, the Company closed a non-brokered private

placement for gross proceeds of $1,165,998 (C$1,640,000) through the issuance

of 10,933,333 units at a price of C$0.15 per unit. Each unit consists of one

common share and one-half of one share purchase warrant. Each whole warrant

entitles the holder thereof to purchase one common share at a price of C$0.20 per

share until April 17, 2023.

"GasHills Project - In April and June 2020, the Company announced additional

uranium mineralization at its Gas Hills Uranium Project in Wyoming, USA (the

Hills Project"). The Company identified this additional uranium

mineralization through the analysis of historical data procured by the Company.

In April 2020, the analysis identified 147 mineralized drill holes with 173

intercepts equal to or exceeding a 0.2 grade-thickness cutoff using a 0.02% grade cutoff with an average U308 grade of 0.137% and an average thickness of 5.3 feet. In June 2020, the analysis further identified 82 mineralized drill holes equal to or exceeding a 0.2 grade-thickness cutoff using a 0.02% grade cutoff with an average U308 grade of 0.205% and an average thickness of 4.0 feet. The analysis has expanded the envelope of uranium mineralization, indicating the potential to supplement the existing Gas Hills Project resource estimate. The Company is currently working on an updated resource estimate at the Gas Hills Project, which has the potential to become a significant satellite project to the Dewey Burdock Project.

COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally. To date, this pandemic has had a limited impact on the Company's operations as the Company has continued to advance permitting on its Dewey Burdock project and raise capital. However, it is not possible for the Company to ultimately predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse impacts of the outbreak and its effects on the Company's business or ability to raise funds.

INDUSTRY TRENDS AND OUTLOOK

Although uranium prices have recovered from their lows, the Company believes that the

following key elements will contribute to further improvements in the uranium sector:

Gl bal reactor pipeline indicates growth - the global reactor pipeline consists

of 9251

nuclear reactors that are operable, under construction, planned or

proposed. Of the 925 nuclear reactors, 442 reactors are operable . A total of 158

nuclear reactors are under construction or planned, which represents

approximately 36% of the current operating fleet. China and India lead the world

in terms of the number of nuclear power plants under construction, with fourteen

and seven, respectively . China continues to accelerate their nuclear growth plans

and intends to have 120-150 GWe of installed capacity by 20302

(currently 46

GWe ).

Subsequently, in April 2020, the United States Nuclear Fuel Working Group ("NFWG") released its report detailing the Strategy to Restore American Nuclear Energy Leadership. This strategy is designed to restore America's competitive nuclear advantages and proposes, among other items, that the U.S. Government "take immediate and bold action to revive and strengthen the uranium mining industry". The strategic objectives will "restore the viability of the entire front-end of the nuclear fuel cycle". A summary of the other most relevant points included in the NFWG report pertaining to the U.S. uranium mining industry include:
