Uranium Resources, Inc. Files for Extension of Form 10-K Filing Deadline

    Company's Release of Fourth Quarter Results and Teleconference
               Continues as Planned for March 19, 2007

    DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 13, 2007--Uranium Resources, Inc.
(OTCBB: URRE) ("URI") announced today it has requested a 15-day
extension from the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the
filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2006. The Company requested the extension because it does
not expect to complete the preparation of management's assessment of
internal controls over financial reporting as required by Section 404
of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 by the initial filing deadline of
March 16, 2007. Although the Company has spent a significant amount of
time and resources on Section 404 compliance, additional time is
needed for the Company and its public accountants to complete their
evaluation and finalize their conclusions.

    The Company's notification on Form 12b-25 will provide, among
other things, that its Form 10-K will be deemed timely filed if filed
not later than 15 calendar days after its original due date pursuant
to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rule. The Company
expects to be able to file its Form 10-K within this extended period.

    The Company will release its earnings on Monday, March 19, 2007
and will hold a teleconference on March 19, 2007 at 10:00 a.m. EDT.
The teleconference can be accessed by calling (973) 935-2048
approximately 10 minutes prior to the call or through the Company's
website at www.uraniumresources.com.
