Segment Disclosures

   
 

The Company has two operating segments both involving the acquisition and exploitation of uranium and mineral resources. These operating segments consist of the Arkose Mining Venture (“Arkose”) and the Company’s remaining operations.

   
 

Factors used to identify the Company’s reportable segments include the organizational structure of the Company and the financial information available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker in making decisions about how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s operating segments have been broken out based on similar economic and other qualitative criteria. The Company operates both reporting segments in one geographical area, the United States.

   
 

The Chief Executive Officer is the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) as defined by ASC 280, Segment Reporting . The CODM allocates resources and assesses the performance of the Company based on the results of operations.
