Energy Fuels Signs Letter of Intent with Mesa Uranium

June 5, 2007

Toronto, Ontario – June 5, 2007 Energy Fuels Inc. (TSX: EFR) (“Energy Fuels” or “the Company”) is pleased to report that the Company has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) to form a joint venture with Mesa Uranium Corp. (TSX.V: MZU) (“Mesa”) to explore the Dar property in the Lisbon Valley Mining District of San Juan County, Utah. The northern boundary of this exploration project is located approximately two miles south of the Company’s Energy Queen Mine which is currently being refurbished in preparation for production in accordance with its as previously announced strategy. The Dar property consists of 60 recently staked mining claims (approximately 1,240 acres) located one mile west of the North Alice Mine and is on trend with historic uranium mines in the Lisbon Valley District. Historic production from this district was reported in 1990 by the Utah Geological and Mineralogical Survey to be approximately 77,900,000 pounds of U3O8 between 1948 and 1977. Further, the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission reports production before 1967 from the North Alice Mine alone of 3,071,365 pounds of U3O8 at a grade of 0.275%.

The Joint Venture contemplates a 50-50 shared expenditure agreement to conduct exploration drilling on the Dar property. Previous exploration work in the 1980’s by Energy Fuels Nuclear, Inc. discovered strong uranium mineralization in several drillholes. Pending completion of the joint venture agreement Mesa, as operator, will conduct the initial exploration work consisting of permitting and drilling. Should an economic uranium deposit be discovered on the joint venture claims, Energy Fuels will operate any mine that is developed.
