These constituents exceeded their Groundwater Compliance Limits ("GWCLs") in the second and third quarter of 2013. As required by Part I.G.4(d) of the Groundwater Discharge Permit ("GWDP"), EFRI submitted a Plan and Time Schedule for the assessment of Sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A on December 5, 2013. Conditional Approval of the Plan and Time Schedule was received by EFRI on December 18, 2013. Pursuant to the Plan and Time Schedule EFRI has prepared this SAR. This transmittal also includes two CDs each containing a word searchable electronic copy of the report. If you should have any questions regarding this report please contact me.

Turk Dan Hillsten SOURCE ASSESSMENT REPORT FOR SULFATE IN MW-01 AND TDS IN MW-03A WHITE MESA URANIUM MILL Blanding, Utah Prepared for: Energy Fuels Resources (USA) Inc. 225 Union Boulevard, Suite 600 Lakewood, CO 80228 Prepared by: 6000 Uptown Boulevard NE, Suite 220 Albuquerque, New Mexico 87110 March 18, 2014 Source Assessment Report for Sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A White Mesa Uranium Mill Blanding, Utah ES-i March 18, 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report is an assessment of the sources, extent, and potential dispersion of sulfate in MW-01 and total dissolved solids (“TDS”) in MW-03A at the White Mesa Uranium Mill. Concentrations of these constituents have exceeded the applicable Groundwater Compliance Limits (“GWCLs”) for two consecutive sampling events. In the October 2012 Source Assessment Report (INTERA, 2012) (“SAR”), EFRI proposed eliminating GWCLs in upgradient wells MW-01, MW-18, and MW-19 during the next Groundwater Discharge Permit (“GWDP”) renewal/revision. In a letter from the Director (the “Director”) of the Utah Division of Radiation Control (“DRC”) dated April 25, 2013, which includes a memo of the DRC’s review and findings of the October SAR, the DRC approved removing the GWCLs from upgradient wells in the upcoming GWDP renewal/revision. However, since the GWDP renewal/revision process is not complete, the sulfate exceedances in MW-01 were reported to DRC, and this SAR was performed according to the requirements under Part I.G.4 of the current GWDP. As the results of the geochemical analysis included in this SAR will demonstrate, sulfate concentrations in upgradient well MW-01 were exhibiting a significantly increasing trend at the time of the Background Reports. Analysis of the other indicator parameters confirms that groundwater in MW-01 is not behaving differently than at the time of the Background Reports, and that the exceedances in sulfate concentrations are consistent with background groundwater conditions in that well. A revised GWCL has been calculated for sulfate in MW-01 using the DRC-approved Flowsheet for completeness, although GWCLs will not be required for MW-01 under the subsequent GWDP. Results of geochemical analysis for TDS and indicator parameters in far downgradient well MW-03A show that groundwater in that well is not behaving differently than at the time of the Background Reports. TDS exhibits a statistically significant increasing trend. This increasing trend was evident at the time of the Background Reports, however, a smaller data set at that time and a poor fitting trendline did not allow for a statistically significant determination. Concentrations of all indicator parameters in MW-03A are exhibiting decreasing trends over time. Given the recent analyses in the Background Reports and other recent analyses and investigations at the site, Energy Fuels Resources (USA) Inc. (“EFRI”) believes that exceedances of the applicable GWCLs for sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A are consistent with background and are likely due to background influences. A revised GWCL is proposed for TDS in MW-03A in this report.

(“EFRI”) operates the White Mesa Uranium Mill (the “Mill”) located near Blanding, Utah (Figure 1), under State of Utah Groundwater Discharge Permit UGW370004 (the “GWDP”). This is the Source Assessment Report (“SAR”) required under Part I.G.4 of the GWDP relating to violations of Part I.G.2 of the GWDP with respect to sulfate in groundwater at compliance monitoring well MW-01 and total dissolved solids (“TDS”) in groundwater at compliance monitoring well MW-03A (Figure 1). Part I.G.2 of the GWDP provides that out-of-compliance status exists when the concentration of a constituent in two consecutive samples from a compliance monitoring point exceeds a groundwater compliance limit (“GWCL”) in Table 2 of the GWDP. The GWDP was originally issued in March 2005, at which time GWCLs were set on an interim basis, based on fractions of State of Utah Ground Water Quality Standards (“GWQSs”) or the equivalent, without reference to natural background at the Mill site. The GWDP also required that EFRI prepare a background groundwater quality report to evaluate all historical data for the purposes of establishing background groundwater quality at the site and developing GWCLs under the GWDP. As required by then Part I.H.3 of the GWDP, EFRI submitted the following to the Director (the “Director”) of the Utah Division of Radiation Control (“DRC”) (the Director was formerly the Executive Secretary of the Utah Radiation Control Board and the Co-Executive Secretary of the Utah Water Quality Board): • A Revised Background Groundwater Quality Report: Existing Wells for Denison Mines (USA) Corp.’s Mill Site, San Juan County, Utah, October 2007, prepared by INTERA, Inc. (the “Existing Wells Background Report”). • A Revised Addendum: Evaluation of Available Pre-Operational and Regional Background Data, Background Groundwater Quality Report: Existing Wells for Denison Mines (USA) Corp.’s Mill Site, San Juan County, Utah, November 16, 2007, prepared by INTERA, Inc. (the “Regional Background Report”). • A Revised Addendum: Background Groundwater Quality Report: New Wells for Denison Mines (USA) Corp.’s Mill Site, San Juan County, Utah, April 30, 2008, prepared by INTERA, Inc. (the “New Wells Background Report,” and together with the “Existing Wells Background Report” and the “Regional Background Report,” the “Background Reports”). Based on a review of the Background Reports and other information and analyses, the Director re- opened the GWDP and modified the GWCLs to be equal to the mean concentration plus two standard deviations or the equivalent. The modified GWCLs became effective on January 20, 2010.

In a letter from the Director dated April 25, 2013, DRC approved removal of the GWCLs at MW-01 stating: DRC agrees with the justifications provided by EFR, that far-up gradient wells are not likely to be impacted by current Mill activities… Specifically, DRC justifications to allow removal of GWCL’s at wells MW-1, MW-18 and MW-19 are as follows: 1. Per DRC review of water elevation maps and expected groundwater flow directions, wells MW-1, MW-18, and MW-19 are hydraulically upgradient from the Mill, 2. Groundwater monitoring for all currently monitored parameters listed on Table 2 of the permit will continue at baseline monitoring frequencies and will be submitted with the Mill Quarterly Ground Water Monitoring Reports, 3. Continuation of GWCL’s at upgradient monitoring wells may result in unnecessary enforcement action and source assessment. On November 15, 2013, EFRI submitted a notice (the “Third Quarter 2013 Exceedance Notice”) to the Executive Secretary under Part I.G.1(a) of the GWDP providing notice that sulfate concentrations in MW-01 and TDS concentrations in MW-03A had exceeded the GWCL for two consecutive sampling events. A Plan and Time Schedule for the third quarter of 2013 (“Q2 2013 Plan and Time Schedule”) addressing sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A was submitted on December 5, 2013, and approved by DRC in correspondence dated December 18, 2013. This Source Assessment Report for Sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A White Mesa Uranium Mill Blanding, Utah 3 March 18, 2014 SAR addresses sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A as described in the DRC-approved Q3 2013 Plan and Time Schedule.

Appendix F is included on the compact disc that accompanies this SAR and contains the electronic input and output files used for statistical analysis. Source Assessment Report for Sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A White Mesa Uranium Mill Blanding, Utah 4 March 18, 2014 2.0 CATEGORIES AND APPROACH FOR ANALYSIS Generally, out-of-compliance constituents and wells can be grouped into five categories: 1. Constituents in wells with previously identified rising trends. 2. Constituents in pumping wells. 3. Constituents potentially impacted by decreasing trends in pH across the site. 4. Newly installed wells with interim GWCLs. 5. Other constituents and wells. This SAR addresses sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A, which fall under categories one and five, respectively. Sulfate in MW-01 was identified as having a statistically significant increasing trend at the time of the Background Reports (INTERA, 2007). TDS does not fall under any of the first four categories, and therefore is under the fifth category, “other constituents.” 2.1 Approach for Analysis The first step in the analysis is to perform an assessment of the potential sources for each exceedance to determine whether the exceedance is due to background influences or Mill activities. If an exceedance is determined to be caused by background influences, then it is not necessary to perform any further evaluations on the extent and potential dispersion of the contamination or to perform an evaluation of potential remedial actions. Monitoring will continue, and where appropriate, revised GWCLs are proposed to reflect changes in background conditions at the site. The assessment for potential sources for each exceedance was accomplished by performing a geochemical analysis to evaluate the behavior of the constituents in the well in question to determine if there have been any changes in the behavior of indicator parameters, such as chloride, sulfate, fluoride, and uranium, since the date of the Background Reports that may suggest a change in the behavior of that well. As discussed in detail in Section 9.0 of the Existing Wells Background Report, chloride is the best indicator of potential tailings cell leakage, followed by fluoride, then sulfate (due to mobility and abundance in tailings). Uranium is probably the most mobile of trace (metal) elements and is the best indicator parameter for metals and radionuclides. A monitoring well impacted by any potential seepage from tailings impoundments would be expected to exhibit rising concentrations of chloride and possibly fluoride, sulfate, and uranium. However, while uranium may be the most mobile of trace (metal) elements, it is typically retarded behind chloride and would likely Source Assessment Report for Sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A White Mesa Uranium Mill Blanding, Utah 5 March 18, 2014 not be expressed in groundwater until sometime after chloride concentrations had begun to rise. This is because uranium is a metal cation and behaves as other metals with respect to pH. It is important to note, however, that while a lack of a rising trend in chloride would indicate that there has been no impact from tailings, a rising trend in chloride could also be due to some natural influences (see Section 12.0 of the Existing Wells Background Report). Therefore, in situations where there is a significant rising trend in chloride, other evaluations would need to be performed, such as a determination as to whether any other indicator parameters have demonstrated a significant rising trend and whether or not the concentrations and mass balance indicate a potential tailings cell leak. The geochemical analysis was supported by a statistical analysis that followed the process outlined in the Groundwater Data Preparation and Statistical Process Flow for Calculating Groundwater Protection Standards, White Mesa Mill Site, San Juan County, Utah (Flowsheet) (INTERA, 2007), a copy of which is attached as Appendix E. The Flowsheet was designed based on USEPA’s Statistical Analysis of Groundwater Monitoring Data at RCRA Facilities, Unified Guidance (USEPA, 2009), and was approved by DRC prior to completion of the Background Reports. In this analysis, concentrations of sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A were found to be consistent with background conditions, eliminating the need for additional hydrological or geochemical (mass balance) analysis, while emphasizing the need for revised GWCLs due to the changing conditions at the site. 2.2 Approach for Setting Revised GWCLs If the foregoing approaches result in the conclusion that the previous analysis in the Background Reports has not changed and that the out-of-compliance status of a constituent in a well is due to natural influences, then, except in the case of MW-01, a proposed new GWCL was proposed. In proposing revised GWCLs, we have adopted the approach in the Flowsheet. As presented in the October 2012 SAR, EFRI proposed, and DRC subsequently agreed, to modify the requirements of the upcoming GWDP to continue sampling but eliminate GWCLs in upgradient wells MW-01, MW-18, and MW-19. Since the GWDP renewal/revision process is not complete, a revised GWCL for sulfate has been calculated according to the Flowsheet and the current GWDP. This GWCL is included for completeness, although GWCLs will not be required for MW-01 under the subsequent GWDP. Appendix B-1 summarizes the revised GWCLs for the out-of-compliance constituents listed in Table 2 based on an application of the Flowsheet. A revised GWCL for MW-01 is included on that table for completeness and to show recalculated GWCLs based on the Flowsheet. Source Assessment Report for Sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A White Mesa Uranium Mill Blanding, Utah 6 March 18, 2014 It is assumed that once revised GWCLs are set for the various constituents, accelerated monitoring for those constituents will cease. 2.3 University of Utah Study At the request of DRC, T. Grant Hurst and D. Kip Solomon of the Department of Geology and Geophysics of the University of Utah performed a groundwater study (the “University of Utah Study”) at the Mill site in July 2007 to characterize groundwater flow, chemical composition, noble gas composition, and age (Hurst and Solomon, 2008) to determine whether or not the increasing and elevated trace metal concentrations in monitoring wells at the Mill site, all of which were identified in the Background Reports, may indicate that potential leakage from tailings cells is occurring. In order to evaluate sources of solute concentrations at the Mill site, low-flow groundwater sampling was implemented in 15 monitoring wells, including MW-03A. In addition, surface water samples were collected from tailings cells 1, 3, and 4A, and two wildlife ponds. Passive diffusion samplers were also deployed and collected in order to characterize the dissolved gas composition of groundwater at different depths within the wells. Samples were collected and analyzed for the following: tritium, nitrate, sulfate, deuterium and oxygen-18 of water, sulfur-34 and oxygen-18 of sulfate, trace metals (uranium, manganese, and selenium), and chlorofluorocarbons (“CFCs”). Hurst and Solomon concluded generally that “[t]he data show that groundwater at the Mill is largely older than 50 years, based on apparent recharge dates from chlorofluorocarbons and tritium concentrations. Wells exhibiting groundwater that has recharged within the last 50 years appears to be a result of recharge from wildlife ponds near the site. Stable isotope fingerprints do not suggest contamination of groundwater by tailings cell leakage, evidence that is corroborated by trace metal concentrations similar to historically-observed observations.” (Hurst and Solomon, 2008, page iii) Specific observations with respect to MW-03A include: • MW-03A exhibited recharge dates of the late 1980s, but Solomon and Hurst concluded that MW-03A was “pumped dry . . . because of low-yielding characteristics, and well MW-3A was subsequently sampled using [EFRI] dedicated bladder pumps. Potential CFC contamination could have occurred in these wells, as well as MW-3, because of exposure to atmosphere after pumping the boreholes dry.” (Hurst and Solomon, 2008, page 23) Source Assessment Report for Sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A White Mesa Uranium Mill Blanding, Utah 7 March 18, 2014 • Tritium concentrations in MW-03A were found to be non-detect, indicating that impacts from wide-scale atmospheric injection of tritium during above-ground thermonuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s, expected to be found in surface waters such as Mill tailings, were not observed in that well. • Hurst and Solomon also concluded MW-03A has more depleted ð18O and elevated uranium concentrations, but as they do not bear an evaporated stable isotope signal, it does not appear that the elevated uranium values are the result of leakage from tailing cells (or wildlife ponds) (Hurst and Solomon, 2008, page 44). Source Assessment Report for Sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A White Mesa Uranium Mill Blanding, Utah 8 March 18, 2014 3.0 RESULTS OF ANALYSIS This section describes the results of the analyses by category. Summaries of the analyses are provided in Appendix B-1, Appendix C-1, and Appendix D. 3.1 Sulfate in MW-01 – Previously Identified Trend Sulfate concentrations in MW-01 have exceeded the current GWCL (Table 2). DRC has agreed that MW-01 is located far enough upgradient from the Mill facility and tailings cells that it is extremely unlikely to be impacted if there were potential groundwater impacts at the site based on review of water level data which indicate that groundwater elevations in MW-01 are higher than the groundwater elevations in monitoring wells completed in the Burro Canyon aquifer beneath the Mill’s tailings cells. DRC has agreed that MW-01 should not be subject to GWCLs due to the fact that MW-01 is located upgradient of the tailings cells; however, MW-01 is subject to GWCLs until the GWDP has been renewed/revised. When the GWDP is renewed/revised, MW-01 will continue to be monitored on a routine frequency, but will not be subject to compliance requirements. Geochemical analysis was performed on sulfate concentrations in MW-01. This analysis included performing the data quality controls and statistical analysis as presented in the Flowsheet. The analysis also included a comparison of the complete data set to date (through fourth quarter 2013) to the data set available at the time of the Background Reports. This comparison shows that both data sets are not normally or lognormally distributed and exhibit statistically significant increasing trends in concentrations of sulfate over time. Concentrations of indicator parameters in MW-01 were subject to a similar geochemical analysis to determine if the behavior of the well has changed since the time of the Background Reports. Indicator parameters were analyzed using the Flowsheet method, and were also compared to analysis of indicator parameters at the time of the Background Reports. A summary of this analysis is presented in Appendix C-1. Appendix D contains data plots of indicator parameters now and at the time of the Background Reports. Chloride is showing a statistically significant increasing trend. This trend was apparent at the time of the Background Reports; however, it was not statistically significant. Fluoride concentrations are showing a slightly decreasing trend, which was apparent at the time of the Background Reports. Uranium concentrations are exhibiting a statistically significant decreasing trend, which was identified at the time of the Background Reports. The results of the indicator parameter analysis supports the conclusions of previous studies and the agreement between EFRI and DRC that groundwater in MW-01 is behaving consistently with background conditions and is not being affected by potential Mill activities. Source Assessment Report for Sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A White Mesa Uranium Mill Blanding, Utah 9 March 18, 2014 If MW-01 were to continue as a compliance well, EFRI would recommend revising the GWCL based on all available data to date. Since the designation of MW-01 will be changed from compliance well to monitoring well, revised GWCLs are not necessary; however, a revised GWCL for sulfate in MW-01 calculated using the Flowsheet is included in Appendix B-1 for completeness. 3.2 TDS in MW-03A – Other Constituents and Wells TDS concentrations have been out of compliance in far downgradient well MW-03A (Table 2). Geochemical evaluation of TDS in MW-03A comparing the current, complete data sets for TDS and indicator parameters shows that groundwater behavior in MW-03A has not changed since the time of the Background Reports. Additionally, concentrations of indicator parameters in MW-03A are exhibiting decreasing trends when plotted over time (Appendix D). At the time of the New Wells Background Report, MW-03A was a relatively new well with eight or nine sample results available, which is the minimum number of results necessary to perform the Flowsheet analysis. MW-03A is located approximately 2,000 feet downgradient from the Mill’s tailings cells. It is extremely unlikely that any potential tailings cell leakage could reach MW-03A during the 30 years that the Mill has been in operation. As indicated in Section 4.2 of HGC (2012a), travel times in the perched aquifer at the Mill are estimated to be 0.9 feet per year in the area between the Mill’s tailings cells and MW-03A, resulting in a travel time of over 2,000 years from the tailings cells to MW-03A. Even if potential tailings cell leakage could have reached MW-03A in the 30 years of Mill operations, a rising trend in chloride would be observed before any other individual constituents would be impacted in that well, and as the results of the geochemical and indicator parameter evaluation show, there is not an increasing trend in chloride in MW-03A. Further, as discussed above, MW-03A was included in the University of Utah Study, where Hurst and Solomon (2008) concluded that “[s]table isotope fingerprints do not suggest contamination of groundwater by tailings cell leakage, evidence that is corroborated by trace metal concentrations similar to historically-observed observations.” The exceedance of TDS can therefore be attributed to natural background variation, and likely the small data set used to establish GWCLs at the time of the Background Reports. We can therefore conclude that the exceedances of TDS in MW-03A have not been caused by Mill operations and recommend revision the GWCL for TDS in MW-03A based on all available data to date. Source Assessment Report for Sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A White Mesa Uranium Mill Blanding, Utah 10 March 18, 2014 3.3 Proposed Revised GWCLs The results of the geochemical analysis support the conclusions that exceedances of sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A are consistent with background groundwater conditions at each well. Therefore revised GWCLs have been calculated and are proposed as follows: • The current GWCL for sulfate in MW-01 is 838 mg/L. The revised GWCL using all available data to date is 846 mg/L, which was determined by using the highest historical value in accordance with the Flowsheet, after extreme outliers have been removed. This revised value has already been exceeded by the third and fourth quarter 2013 sampling results of 911 and 930 mg/L, respectively. Following the steps of the Flowsheet, these two results were filtered out of the data set prior to analysis during the box plot and extreme outlier identification. Therefore the revised GWCL is not appropriate for compliance in this well. This revised GWCL, determined by following the steps in the Flowsheet, is included in this SAR for completeness. As discussed in Section 1.0, upgradient well MW-01 will not be subject to GWCLs after the upcoming GWDP renewal/revision. • The current GWCL for TDS in MW-03A is 5,805 mg/L. The revised GWCL using all available data to date is 6,028 mg/L, which was calculated using the mean plus two standard deviations in accordance with the Flowsheet. EFRI maintains that GWCLs for constituents in wells with significantly increasing trends that are the result of background influences, such as sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A, should be revised regularly, as is recommended by USEPA’s Unified Guidance (USEPA, 2009), to account for the trends and to minimize unwarranted out-of-compliance status in such wells. As presented above, the revised GWCL for sulfate in MW-01 has already been exceeded twice as shown by the third and fourth quarter 2013 sampling results, and the exceedance of TDS in the second quarter of 2013 (6,020 mg/L) is only 8 mg/L less than the revised GWCL of 6,028 mg/L. Since the concentrations of sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A are and always have been exhibiting increasing trends, this circumstance reinforces the need for a compliance solution for constituents in wells that are exhibiting increasing trends due to natural background conditions. EFRI is currently in the planning and development stage for proposing an alternative method of compliance for constituents in wells with increasing trends that are caused by background conditions at the Mill site. Source Assessment Report for Sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A White Mesa Uranium Mill Blanding, Utah 11 March 18, 2014 4.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Background at the Mill site was recently thoroughly studied in the Background Reports and in the University of Utah Study. Both the Background Reports and the University of Utah Study concluded that groundwater at the site has not been impacted by Mill operations. Both of those studies also acknowledged that there are natural influences at play at the site that have given rise to increasing water trends and general variability of background groundwater at the site. The focus of this SAR was therefore to identify any changes in the circumstances identified in those studies. A geochemical analysis of sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A and their respective indicator parameters was performed. The results of the analyses show that there has not been a significant change in the behavior of groundwater in MW-01 and MW-03A, which means that the exceedances observed at the Mill site in these wells are the result of natural background influences.

Revise GWCL until subsequent GWDP is approved by DRC. MW-03A TDS Far downgradient. No significantly increasing trends in indicator parameters. Consistent with background conditions. Revise GWCL until alternate method of compliance for constituents with increasing trends that are not due to potential mill activity is approved by DRC. As the results of the geochemical analysis demonstrate, each exceedance can be attributed to natural background. Revised GWCLs have been calculated for both Sulfate in MW-01 and TDS in MW-03A; however, MW-01 will not be subject to GWCLs after the upcoming GWDP revision/renewal. The revised GWCL for TDS in MW-03A that is currently being proposed may change after EFRI and DRC agree on an alternate method of compliance for constituents in wells with increasing trends that can be attributed to background conditions. EFRI is currently in the planning and development stage for proposing an alternative method of compliance for constituents in wells with increasing trends that are caused by background conditions at the site.
