The scale house operator will contact the Environmental Department so that the shipment can be escorted by Environmental personnel to the Designated Disposal Area specified by the Environmental Coordinator. 6. Prior to transporting material to the Designated Disposal Area (pending on weather), the driver will be instructed to open or untarp the load. The Environmental personnel and the transportation expert will visually inspect, to the degree possible, the byproduct material to ensure that the material matches the material description on the shipping manifest. Any discrepancies between the byproduct material received and the manifest information will be reported to the Environmental Coordinator. a. Any byproduct material suspected of not conforming to Section 2.0 of this SOP will not be transported to the disposal site, unless a determination is made by the Environmental Coordinator that the material in question conforms to Section 2.0 of this SOP. b. Barrels containing soil or sludges shall be checked to determine if they are full prior No.: PBL-10 Rev. No.: R-3.34 Date: November 13, 204-4February 1, 2018 ENERGY FUELS RESOURCES (USA) INC. STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES Title: 1 le.(2) Byproduct Disposal Page 4 of 13 to transporting them for disposal. Barrels not completely full shall be documented and shall be filled with tailings or soil prior to disposal. (License Condition 1 0.5.B). c. If weather conditions exist that makes the opening of the conveyance impossible at the untarping station, the Environmental personnel may take the conveyanee to a suitable location in which to inspect the load. A suitable location will be one where the load may be viewed where employees are safely out of the way when the conveyance doors are opened and where if material was to fall out of the conveyance, that contamination issues will not be incurred. An example area could the tails impound area near the disposal site. 6.0 Byproduct Material Unloading 1. The Environmental Coordinator will specify the specific location within the broader Designated Disposal Area for disposal of the shipment. In designating the specific location within the broader Designated Disposal Area for disposal of the shipment, the Environmental Coordinator will ensure that all byproduct material will be segregated from any Mill material and equipment disposed of in the cell pursuant to Mill license condition 10.4, and that the byproduct material from each ISL source will be segregated from the byproduct material from all other ISL sources. 2. Environmental personnel will escort the shipment to the designated location in the Designated Disposal Area for unloading of the byproduct material. 3. Proposed Methods and Procedures to Fully Protect the Liner While Accessing Tailings Cells for Disposal of ISL Byproduct Material and Mill Equipment a. The shipment will be transported to the Designated Disposal Area only on established roadways onto the tailings cells. b. At no time will a shipment be transported over or in a manner that will damage unprotected dikes, liners, other structures or settlement monitors associated with any of the tailings cells. c. There must be at least 4 feet of tailings sands under the Designated Disposal Area (documentation of the disposal area must be completed and on file prior to any disposal activities); d. The Designated Disposal Area must be located at least 1 2 feet from the sides or dikes of the tailings cell (documentation of the disposal area must be completed and on file prior to any disposal activities); e. No travel into the disposal area will be allowed unless the disposal cell liner is covered by at least 1 8 inches of soil or fill material at the point of access. 4. If the 7 calendar day notice referred to in Section 4.0 above has not been given, or the 7 days have not lapsed, then the shipment may be, but is not required to be contained in the shipping container (that is, the container-bin or trailer) on site until the required 7 day notice has been given and the 7 calendar days have lapsed. No.: PBL-10 Rev. No.: R-334 Date: November 13, 2414February 1, 2018 ENERGY FUELS RESOURCES (USA) INC. STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES Title: 1 1 e.(2) Byproduct Disposal Page 5 of 13 5. If the shipment is determined to be acceptable, the following procedures will be followed: a) If the 7-day notice has been given under Section 4.0 above and the 7 calendar days have lapsed, the byproduct material will then be unloaded in the designated area. If such notice has not been given or if such 7 day period has not lapsed, then the byproduct material will be unloaded in an area of the tailings cell that is not covered with interim cover and from which the material can be removed if necessary. Once the required notice has been given and the required 7 days have lapsed, the byproduct material will then be placed into the designated area. b) If the material is in a self-unloading container, the driver will be instructed to unload ensuring all personnel are clear of the trailer and the immediate area. Byproduct material will be dumped from the transport in a safe manner to minimize dust. If the material requires unloading by a fork truck, a ramp will be installed and unloading will proceed. c) After unloading, the Environmental personnel will visually inspect the unloaded byproduct material to ensure that there is no newly discovered material which does not match the material description on the shipping manifest. Any discrepancies between the byproduct material received and the manifest information will be reported to the Environmental Coordinator. Any byproduct material suspected of not meeting the requirements set forth in Section 2.0 of this SOP will be kept segregated from other waste material until a determination is made of its acceptability for disposal. d) After unloading, a photo of the unloaded material will be taken which is attached to the shipping documentation for verification of shipment contents. e) The location of the shipment of the byproduct material will be documented on the plat of each Designated Disposal Area illustrating the disposal area within the Designated Disposal Area where the byproduct material will be disposed of. f) Beta-gamma measurements will be taken at several locations around the unloaded material. This information will be recorded on the Radiation Department's copy of the shipment documentation. The measurement range in mrem/hr at 2 meters, and the average measurement, measured in mrem/hr at 2 meters, shall be recorded. g) Measurements using a photoionization detection meter ("PID") will be taken at several locations around the unloaded material to ensure that there are no organics present. The information will be recorded on the Environmental Department's copy of the shipment documentation. If organics are detected, the Environmental Coordinator must be advised, and no compaction or covering activities relating to the shipment shall occur until specifically instructed by the Environmental Coordinator. The Environmental Coordinator and Safety Coordinator will determine if any additional safety precautions are required to be taken by workers or otherwise as a result of the detection of the organics, and will implement any such precautions. The Environmental Coordinator will also contact EFR corporate regulatory personnel and the shipper to verify that the detected organics are 11e.(2) byproduct material from the shipper's ISL facility. Once the Environmental Coordinator has verified that the No.: PBL-10 Rev. No.: R-334 Date: November 13, 2044February 1, 2018 ENERGY FUELS RESOURCES (USA) INC. STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES Title: 1 le.(2) B yproduct Disposal Page 6 of 13 organics are byproduct material compaction and covering activities will proceed. h) A breathing zone sample will be taken periodically during unloading and cover activities. If the gross alpha exceeds 25% of the applicable DAC, then the RSO will be notified, and all other unloading activities of byproduct material from that particular ISL site will require the use of respiratory protection, until further notice by the RSO. i) After unloading the byproduct material, replace the tarp or close the trailer, unless the trailer is being decontaminated for unrestricted release. j) Direct the driver back to the scales for an empty weight. k) The scale house operator will record the empty weight on the appropriate SWT. 1) Shipment and disposal activities will be documented as described in Section 10, below. 7.0 Covering of Byproduct Material 1. After the byproduct material has been accepted by the Environmental Coordinator, or their designee, the byproduct material will be spread within the designated area within the Designated Disposal Area to facilitate compaction and covering. 2. The byproduct material will be compacted with at least four passes of the construction equipment prior to placing an additional layer. 3. Free volumes in the byproduct material will be minimized by filling, sectioning, or crushing. Random fill or tailings sands will be used to fill voids in and around the byproduct material. 4. All contaminated equipment shall be dismantled, crushed, or sectioned to minimize void spaces. Barrels containing waste other than soil or sludges shall be emptied into the disposal area and the barrels crushed. Barrels containing soil or sludges shall be verified to be full prior to disposal. Barrels not completely full shall be filled with tailings or soil. 5. A one foot thick, or thicker, cover comprised of native soil will be placed over the byproduct material working area. The fill and cover material will be compacted with at least one pass of the construction equipment. 6. The Environmental Coordinator or their designee will inspect the placement of the byproduct material prior to covering to physically verify that the procedures in this Section 7.0 have been adequately performed. 8.0 Decontamination and Release of Trailers and Trucks No.: PBL-10 Rev.

If weather conditions exist that makes the opening of the conveyance impossible at the untarping station, the Environmental personnel may take the conveyance to a suitable location in which to inspect the load. A suitable location will be one where the load may be viewed where employees are safely out of the way when the conveyance doors are opened and where if material was to fall out of the conveyance, that contamination issues will not be incurred. An example area could the tails impound area near the disposal site. 6.0 Byproduct Material Unloading 1. The Environmental Coordinator will specify the specific location within the broader Designated Disposal Area for disposal of the shipment. In designating the specific location within the broader Designated Disposal Area for disposal of the shipment, the Environmental Coordinator will ensure that all byproduct material will be segregated from any Mill material and equipment disposed of in the cell pursuant to Mill license condition 10.4, and that the byproduct material from each ISL source will be segregated from the byproduct material from all other ISL sources. 2. Environmental personnel will escort the shipment to the designated location in the Designated Disposal Area for unloading of the byproduct material. 3. Proposed Methods and Procedures to Fully Protect the Liner While Accessing Tailings Cells for Disposal of ISL Byproduct Material and Mill Equipment a. The shipment will be transported to the Designated Disposal Area only on established roadways onto the tailings cells. b. At no time will a shipment be transported over or in a manner that will damage unprotected dikes, liners, other structures or settlement monitors associated with any of the tailings cells. c. There must be at least 4 feet of tailings sands under the Designated Disposal Area (documentation of the disposal area must be completed and on file prior to any disposal activities); d. The Designated Disposal Area must be located at least 12 feet from the sides or dikes of the tailings cell (documentation of the disposal area must be completed and on file prior to any disposal activities); e. No travel into the disposal area will be allowed unless the disposal cell liner is covered by at least 18 inches of soil or fill material at the point of access. 4. If the 7 calendar day notice referred to in Section 4.0 above has not been given, or the 7 days have not lapsed, then the shipment may be, but is not required to be contained in the shipping container (that is, the container-bin or trailer) on site until the required 7 day notice has been given and the 7 calendar days have lapsed. 5. If the shipment is determined to be acceptable, the following procedures will be followed: a) If the 7-day notice has been given under Section 4.0 above and the 7 calendar days have lapsed, No.: PBL-10 Rev. No.: R-3.4 Date: February 1, 2018 ENERGY FUELS RESOURCES (USA) INC. STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES Title: 1 le.(2) Byproduct Disposal Page 5 of 13 the byproduct material will then be unloaded in the designated area. If such notice has not been given or if such 7 day period has not lapsed, then the byproduct material will be unloaded in an area of the tailings cell that is not covered with interim cover and from which the material can be removed if necessary. Once the required notice has been given and the required 7 days have lapsed, the byproduct material will then be placed into the designated area. b) If the material is in a self-unloading container, the driver will be instructed to unload ensuring all personnel are clear of the trailer and the immediate area. Byproduct material will be dumped from the transport in a safe manner to minimize dust. If the material requires unloading by a fork truck, a ramp will be installed and unloading will proceed. c) After unloading, the Environmental personnel will visually inspect the unloaded byproduct material to ensure that there is no newly discovered material which does not match the material description on the shipping manifest. Any discrepancies between the byproduct material received and the manifest information will be reported to the Environmental Coordinator. Any byproduct material suspected of not meeting the requirements set forth in Section 2.0 of this SOP will be kept segregated from other waste material until a determination is made of its acceptability for disposal. d) After unloading, a photo of the unloaded material will be taken which is attached to the shipping documentation for verification of shipment contents. e) The location of the shipment of the byproduct material will be documented on the plat of each Designated Disposal Area illustrating the disposal area within the Designated Disposal Area where the byproduct material will be disposed of. f) Beta-gamma measurements will be taken at several locations around the unloaded material. This information will be recorded on the Radiation Department' s copy of the shipment documentation. The measurement range in mrem/hr at 2 meters, and the average measurement, measured in mrem/hr at 2 meters, shall be recorded. g) Measurements using a photoionization detection meter ("PID") will be taken at several locations around the unloaded material to ensure that there are no organics present. The information will be recorded on the Environmental Department's copy of the shipment documentation. If organics are detected, the Environmental Coordinator must be advised, and no compaction or covering activities relating to the shipment shall occur until specifically instructed by the Environmental Coordinator. The Environmental Coordinator and Safety Coordinator will determine if any additional safety precautions are required to be taken by workers or otherwise as a result of the detection of the organics, and will implement any such precautions. The Environmental Coordinator will also contact EFR corporate regulatory personnel and the shipper to verify that the detected organics are 1 1 e.(2) byproduct material from the shipper's ISL facility. Once the Environmental Coordinator has verified that the organics are byproduct material compaction and covering activities will proceed. h) A breathing zone sample will be taken periodically during unloading and cover activities. If the gross alpha exceeds 25% of the applicable DAC, then the RSO will be notified, and all other unloading activities of byproduct material from that particular ISL site will require the No.: PBL-10 Rev.

After the byproduct material has been accepted by the Environmental Coordinator, or their designee, the byproduct material will be spread within the designated area within the Designated Disposal Area to facilitate compaction and covering. 2. The byproduct material will be compacted with at least four passes of the construction equipment prior to placing an additional layer. 3. Free volumes in the byproduct material will be minimized by filling, sectioning, or crushing. Random fill or tailings sands will be used to fill voids in and around the byproduct material. 4. All contaminated equipment shall be dismantled, crushed, or sectioned to minimize void spaces. Barrels containing waste other than soil or sludges shall be emptied into the disposal area and the barrels crushed. Barrels containing soil or sludges shall be verified to be full prior to disposal. Barrels not completely full shall be filled with tailings or soil. 5. A one foot thick, or thicker, cover comprised of native soil will be placed over the byproduct material working area. The fill and cover material will be compacted with at least one pass of the construction equipment. 6. The Environmental Coordinator or their designee will inspect the placement of the byproduct material prior to covering to physically verify that the procedures in this Section 7.0 have been adequately performed. 8.0 Decontamination and Release of Trailers and Trucks All trailers and trucks will be decontaminated after unloading prior to leaving the Mill. Shippers or transporters will notify EFR whether a specific trailer is to be released for restricted or unrestricted use. Any trailers that are to be released for restricted use will be decontaminated according to the requirements contained in DOT Part 49 CFR 173.428 or 173.443.
