Item 5.02               Departure of Directors or Certain Officers

 

On July 3, 2008 George R. Ireland resigned as a member of Uranium Resources, Inc.’s (the “Company”)  Board of Directors.  Mr. Ireland advised the Company that while he was reluctant to cease being a Director, he indicated that changes in accounting rules applicable to investment funds, such as the fund he manages, was having a negative impact on the fund because of its large position in the Company’s common stock and the trading restrictions resulting from his Board membership. Mr. Ireland also cited his inability to continue to take time away from his primary responsibilities to spend the time required of him as a director of a public company.

 

Mr. Ireland was Chairman of the Nominating Committee, and a member of the Audit, Compensation and Strategic Planning Committees.

 

Item 8.01               Other Events.

 

A copy of the Company’s July 10, 2008 press release relating to the resignation is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
