SUMMARY

Winjabbie Copper Mineralisation

UXA has received drill core analyses from its first drill hole (07WJ01) on its 100% owned Winjabbie exploration licence (EL) 3432 in South Australia (Figure 3). Assays from core with visible chalcopyrite and chalcocite confirmed copper mineralisation at a shallower depth than previous explorers' drill holes.

UXA's drill hole 07WJ01 completed in January 2008, returned assay results across a 42 metre interval with average copper grade of 0.34% including 9 metres at 0.8% Cu with highest value of 3.5% Cu across 1 metre (Table 1). The top of the mineralised section was intercepted at 824 metres depth with the highest copper intersection in the top nine metres of this mineralised section.

Joint Venture Approvals

The Farm-in and Joint Venture Agreement between Uranium Exploration Australia Limited (ASX: UXA) and a subsidiary of India's Reliance Industries Limited, RIL Australia (RILA), received Federal and State approval in January 2008. This approval triggered the payment of $3.45 million in cash to UXA by RILA, and the transfer of 49% interest in four of UXA's South Australian exploration licences to RILA.

RILA will also reimburse UXA for 49% of exploration expenditures on the four SA tenements incurred by UXA between 1 July 2007 and 31 January 2008, and will pay 49% of exploration expenditures going forward. RILA will also receive 49% interest in four Northern Territory tenements upon the grant of each of the current exploration licence applications to exploration licences.

Drill Program Summary

UXA continues to advance its aggressive exploration program. Through the end of this reporting period, UXA has completed a total of approximately 8,800 metres of a planned 20,000 metre drilling program across its tenements in South Australia, Western Australia, Northern Territory and New South Wales.
