Item 1.02Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 29, 2013, Cameco Texas Inc. (“CTI”) notified URI, Inc. (“URI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Uranium Resources, Inc. (the “Company”), of CTI’s intent to terminate the Exploration Agreement dated May 10, 2011 between URI and CTI (as amended, the “Exploration Agreement”). The Exploration Agreement set forth the terms of an exploration program relating to the Los Finados and Tecolote projects located in Kenedy County, Texas. Under the Exploration Agreement, CTI funded the majority of the exploration costs and had the opportunity to earn up to a 70% interest in the projects in consideration for its investment.

CTI has represented to URI that CTI has paid its share of all exploration expenditures incurred through the termination date and that CTI consequently has no further obligations under the Exploration Agreement.

URI continues to retain its rights under the Uranium Mining Lease Option Agreement (as amended), pursuant to which URI has the right (i) to conduct exploration and development activities on the Tecolote project and (ii) to enter into one or more in-situ uranium mining leases covering the exploration lands.

Uranium Resources Provides Update on
South Texas Exploration Program

Cameco and URI Ending Current Joint Venture

CENTENNIAL, CO, December 5, 2013 — Uranium Resources, Inc. (NASDAQ: URRE) (“URI” or the “Company”) today announced that Cameco (NYSE: CCJ) has elected to discontinue the joint venture exploration agreement in Kenedy County, Texas.  This exploration agreement was first announced in May 2011 and was most recently expanded and extended in December 2012.

Christopher M. Jones, President and Chief Executive Officer of URI, commented, “This was a greenfield exploration site that to date has not generated significant finds.  Given the current economics of exploration, we certainly understand Cameco’s decision to focus its resources on more developed projects.  We remain committed to developing uranium in South Texas as we aim to leverage our two processing plants in the region.”

With the termination of the agreement, Cameco retains no interest in URI’s business activities.

About Uranium Resources, Inc.

Uranium Resources routinely posts news and other information about the Company on its website at www.uraniumresources.com.
