ENERGY METALS TO CALL OUTSTANDING WARRANTS

Vancouver, British Columbia, June 7, 2007: Energy Metals Corporation (TSX: EMC; NYSE Arca: EMU) announced today that it has sent written notice to its warrantholders requiring them to exercise their warrants on or before July 6, 2007 or forfeit their rights. Energy Metals is exercising its rights to call in the warrants in anticipation of the completion of sxr Uranium One’s proposed acquisition of Energy Metals.

The warrants were issued on April 6, 2006 and April 13, 2006 and provide that Energy Metals has the right, upon not less than 30 days written notice, to call in the warrants. Warrantholders may wish to consider exercising their rights, as all outstanding warrants of Energy Metals have an exercise price substantially lower than the current market price of the common shares of Energy Metals.

The exercise of all outstanding warrants will result in the issue of approximately 2,370,269 common shares for proceeds of approximately $15,385,000.

The warrants and the Energy Metals common shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") and the warrants may not be exercised in the United States or by or on behalf of a U.S. person unless the exercise of the warrants and the issuance of the Energy Metals common shares upon such exercise are exempt from registration under the 1933 Act.

Energy Metals has been informed that sxr Uranium One plans to file a registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the 1933 Act. Energy Metals anticipates that, if the acquisition of Energy Metals proceeds on that basis, certificates representing sxr Uranium One common shares issued to shareholders of Energy Metals that are not affiliates of Energy Metals or sxr Uranium One, and will not be affiliates of sxr Uranium One following the proposed transaction, in exchange for such persons’ Energy Metals common shares will not contain restrictive legends under the 1933 Act and will be freely tradable under the 1933 Act.
