DENISON MINES (USA) CORPORATION <br />2010 ANNUAL REPORT <br />Topaz Mine Permit M-1980-055 HR <br />Operations are currently on Temporary Cessation at the Topaz Mine. <br />An Amendment to a Plan of Operations (POO) was submitted to the San Juan Field Office of the <br />Bureau of Land Management (BLM) on April 6`h, 2007 to incorporate operations at the Topaz <br />Mine with the existing POOs for the Sunday, St. Jude, Carnation (covered under the Sunday <br />POO), and West Sunday POO. The Environmental Assessment has been through public <br />comment, and the BLM approved the Plan and issued a Finding of No Significant Impact <br />(FONSI) in January 20 of 2009 (FONSI) and January 30, 2009 (Decision Record). A request for <br />BLM State Director Review and a Request for a Stay was submitted by the Sheep Mountain <br />Alliance, Colorado Environmental Coalition, Information Network for Responsible Mining, and <br />the Center for Biological Diversity on March 2, 2009. The BLM State Director remanded this <br />decision aback to the Dolores Public Lands Office and granted the stay on September 17, 2009. <br />Denison was officially notified on October 1, 2009 and notified by the Dolores Public Lands <br />Office on November 9, 2009. Denison is currently evaluating the BLM remand and will be <br />meeting with the BLM in the near future to discuss options for moving forward. <br />Denison temporarily suspended operations at the Topaz Mine on July 31, 2009. Updated site <br />maps were provided with the Denison application to convert the Topaz Permit from a 110 to a <br />112, and again in the DMO application submitted to DRMS in June 2009. No additional permit <br />map updates are provided at this time. <br />In 2009, approximately 1,506 tons of ore were produced from the Topaz Mine and shipped to the <br />White Mesa Mill, near Blanding, Utah. No concurrent reclamation activities have taken place at <br />the Topaz Mine in 2009 and no stormwater improvements were deemed necessary based on <br />stormwater inspections at the site. <br />A Weed Management Plan consistent with the requirements of San Miguel County and the BLM <br />was prepared for the Sunday Mines. Noxious weed control was conducted using pesticide for <br />halogen and knapweed. Figures provided in the 2008 annual report show areas where pesticides <br />were applied at the Sunday Mines. Pesticides were applied in 2009 on June 15 `h and October 16`h
