       URANIUM STANDARD ACQUIRES WHEELER LAKE PROJECT, SOUTHERN ATHABASCA BASIN
                  AND RECEIVES CLEARANCE FOR OTC QUOTATION AS "CRSKF"

Vancouver, British Columbia - October 24, 2014 � Uranium Standard Resources Ltd. (USR:TSX.V) is pleased to
announce that it has entered into an agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the Wheeler Lake Project. This is the
Company's first acquisition since resuming trading on October 2, 2014.

The Wheeler Lake Project is comprised of 2682 hectares, along the southern margin of the Athabasca Basin, some
17km west of the Key Lake Mine, an open pit operation which produced ~200 million pounds of uranium. The
Wheeler Lake Project also borders projects controlled by Cameco, Forum Uranium and Fission 3.0. The depth of
investigation is relatively shallow, between 45-55m to the basement.

Arni Johannson Founder, Director & CEO commented, "We believe Wheeler Lake could have significant potential
and this acquisition is part of our foundation in building a large portfolio of advanced high-quality uranium projects
to provide investors with broad-based exposure to the uranium sector. We expect investor attention to return to
the uranium sector and locking up key properties like Wheeler Lake properly positions the company for growth
and elevates our stature. We should be executing our US property acquisition strategy prior to the end of the
year. I am very pleased our experienced team could conclude this negotiation so efficiently."

The principle target at Wheeler Lake is a series of subsurface conductive anomalies, lying within a magnetic low
corridor and against a magnetic high: the A3 Zone. In 2008, Triex Minerals Corp. engaged Patterson Geophysics to
complete a HLEM ground survey to examine the series of NE trending subsurface conductive anomalies on what
was then called the River Lake Properties. A 50 line kilometer survey of the A3 grid confirmed the presence of over
11km of conductors which were interpreted to be potentially shallow conductive structures in the underlying
bedrock. In 2008, Triex investigated the A3 Zone with a two diamond drill holes. Hole RV08-007 encountered
strongly altered pelite and pegmatite as well as sections of strongly altered clays. At a depth of 81m, a one meter
layer of 1184 ppm pegmatite-hosted thorium-rare earth elements (REE) was also identified through subsequent
assay.

Under the terms of the agreement, the Company can earn a 100% interest in the Wheeler Lake Project by paying
$25,000 upon signing, issuing 1,900,000 common shares within 10 days of regulatory approval and incurring
$2,000,000 in exploration expenditures within the next six years. A 1% net royalty interest has also been granted
to the vendor, of which � % can be purchased by the Company for $1,000,000. This transaction remains subject to
TSX Venture Exchange approval.

Additionally, the Company is pleased to announce that on October 23, 2014, Uranium Standard Resources Ltd.
received clearance from the OTC Compliance Unit of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority in the United
States. The Company is pursuing an OTCQB listing and expects to complete this in the near term. The common
stock will trade under the symbol "CRSKF".
