At June 30, 2018, inventory at the conversion facility was approximately 233,712 pounds U3O8.

During the quarter, sales totalled $3.79-million on 100,000 pounds at an average price of $37.90 per pound, which was 71 per cent above the average spot price for the same period of $22.13 per pound. The 100,000 pounds were purchased at an average cost of $22.25 per pound.

During the period, the third of the first three header houses in the second mine unit (MU2) at Lost Creek commenced production. All three of the header houses are exceeding budgeted production expectations. With the addition of MU2 production, both grades and flow levels have continued to increase.
