Highlights

· Once the Optical Sorter has arrived on site Angelon will send a crew to site from China for assembly and commissioning

· Phase 1 ready processing plant is more than 65% completed and awaiting the arrival of the Optical Sorter. A primary crusher and primary sizing screen with associated conveyors and dewatering pumps, are all in the process of being procured and installed into the current circuit.

· Trial mining and processing activities can potentially re-start within a short period of months from now, subject to all to the upgrades and the commissioning of the Phase 1 plant continuing to progress on schedule.

Edward Nealon, Chairman of URA commented: "I am extremely pleased to say that URA is now on its planned run-in to commence production. The emerald resource is a sizeable and exciting one and we are confident of getting started and proving its value. It is disappointing that market conditions forced us to raise the necessary funds at a price well below the levels at which it was trading earlier in the year but this round of finance does, as I have said, enable us to take the Company to a position where its potential value can begin to be realised"
