    Uranium Resources Appoints Marvin Kaiser to Board of Directors

      Director Lee Erdahl to Serve as Corporate Financial Advisor

    LEWISVILLE, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 12, 2007--Uranium
Resources, Inc. (NASDAQ: URRE) ("URI"), a uranium exploration,
development and mining company, announced today that its Board of
Directors has appointed Marvin K. Kaiser to the Board as an
independent Director and to serve in that capacity until the next
election of Directors in 2008.

    Mr. Kaiser retired from The Doe Run Company, a privately held
natural resources company and the largest integrated lead producer in
the Western Hemisphere, where he served as Executive Vice President
and Chief Administrative Officer. Prior to his thirteen years with Doe
Run, Mr. Kaiser held the positions of Chief Financial Officer for Amax
Gold, Olympic Mining Corporation and Ranchers Exploration at various
times over a 24-year period. He is a Certified Public Accountant and
brings to the Board of Directors vast experience in all aspects of
corporate finance and management.

    Concurrently with this appointment to the Board, current director
Leland O. ("Lee") Erdahl has agreed to serve as a financial advisor to
the Chairman of the Board of Directors. As a result of his augmented
role for the Company, Mr. Erdahl, loses his independent status and,
therefore, will no longer be eligible to continue as Chairman of the
Audit Committee. Mr. Kaiser will replace Mr. Erdahl as Chairman of the
Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.

    Paul Willmott, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Uranium
Resources, commented, "Lee's financial background and extensive
industry experience will be a tremendous asset to the Company as we
pursue our growth strategies. He has been a director since 1994 and
has been a strong contributor to the company's current success."

    He added, "We are also pleased to add at the same time Marv's
breadth of experience in finance and management in the natural
resource industry to the Board of Directors. As we evaluate
opportunities for growth, I believe his knowledge will prove valuable
to our strategic direction and an excellent complement to our Board
membership. We are rapidly growing and the industry is beginning to
consolidate, so our changes today are intended to enable us to best
capitalize on the industry dynamics"
