Dean T. (Ted) Wilton, CPG# 7659; PG (Wyoming); Chief Geologist, Westwater Resources, Inc., (formerly known as Uranium Resources, Inc (URI)) produced a NI 43-101 report that supposedly independently evaluated the Ambrosia Lake uranium project of Westwater Resources, Inc. (“the Company”) even though he serves as the Chief Geologist of that company, which would appear to violate the rules regarding independence put forth by the NI 43-101 regulations out of Canada (more).
The subject property encompasses substantial portions of the western and southern parts of the Ambrosia Lake mining district, which has been the largest single source of uranium produced in the United States. Considerable exploration and mining has been carried out on lands that make up the project and on adjoining properties, and this activity continued for an extended period from the 1950s through the late 1990s. With the exception of a three-hole confirmation drilling program undertaken on the Section 13 target in 2010 the Company has done little work on the project area.
As a central part of the preparation of this Technical Report the author reviewed the extensive data files of the Company in order to evaluate the merits of the geology and mineral resource potential of the Ambrosia Lake project. It is the author’s opinion that the Ambrosia Lake project is a project of merit, and warrants further work. Although the Ambrosia Lake mining district, which is the site of the project, is the largest uranium mining area in the United States there are no active mines or any known exploration programs in the district at this time.
