TORONTO, ONTARIO -- 11/27/09 -- Editors Note: There is a photo associated with this Press Release.


U3O8 Corp. (TSX VENTURE: UWE), a Canadian uranium exploration company, is pleased to announce that the Guyana Government has granted U3O8 Corp's wholly-owned subsidiary, Prometheus Resources (Guyana) Inc., extensions to the expiry dates on the company's two Reconnaissance Permits. These permits allow U3O8 Corp. the exclusive rights to explore for uranium within the Roraima Basin and adjacent basement rocks in Guyana, South America. The extensions affect two Reconnaissance Permits (technically termed "Permit for Geological and Geophysical Surveys") as follows:


- Permit A: a one-year extension has been granted for uranium exploration in approximately 50% of the area covered by the original Permit A, until November 22, 2010; and


- Permit B: permission has been granted for a two-year extension such that, on expiry of Permit B on May 30, 2010, exploration will continue on approximately 50% of the area covered by the original permit, until May 30, 2012.


"I express our sincere thanks to the Government of Guyana, and specifically the Guyana Geology and Mines Commission (GGMC), for extending the term of the Reconnaissance Permits. These extensions enable U3O8 Corp. to continue with exploration that aims to build on its resource and identify economic uranium deposits that could contribute fuel to meet the world's rising demand for clean nuclear energy," said Dr. Richard Spencer, U3O8 Corp's President and CEO. "I also thank the Prime Minister, the Honourable Dr. Hinds, and Mr. Woolford, Commissioner of the GGMC, for taking the time to review our principal exploration project during a recent site visit."


The Government of Guyana has extended Permit A for one year, which grants U3O8 Corp. the right to continue exploration on an area of about 258,083 hectares (approximately 50% of the original permit area) that the company considers to have prime uranium potential. Permit A is now valid until November 22, 2010. Currently, Permit B is valid until May 30, 2010. Thereafter, the amended Permit B will come into effect, granting U3O8 Corp. permission to continue exploring approximately 402,923 hectares (about 50% of the original permit area) until May 31, 2012. These extensions will allow U3O8 Corp. to continue its reconnaissance work on focused exploration areas, which will cover about 50% or 661,006 hectares of the original 1.3 million hectares included under the permits first issued in 2005.


Regulatory Process
U3O8 Corp. has advanced to the second step in the regulatory process in applying for Prospecting Licenses over priority targets within the areas underlying the Reconnaissance Permits. To date, five Prospecting Licenses have been granted. Prospecting Licenses are valid for three years with options for extensions for a total of five years provided that they are kept in good standing with the State through the fulfillment of requirements, such as the payment of fees and meeting minimum exploration expenditures. Prospecting Licenses that contain potentially economic mineralization are typically converted into Mining Licenses, which are valid for up to 20 years, with possible renewals beyond that limit.


About U3O8 Corp.
U3O8 Corp. is a Canadian uranium exploration company based in Toronto, Canada. Currently focused on uranium exploration in the Roraima Basin in Guyana, South America, U3O8 Corp's primary business objective is to explore, develop and acquire uranium projects in the Americas. The company is funded with over $5 million held solely in cash and Canadian chartered bank-backed Guaranteed Investment Certificates.


U308 Corp. has exclusive uranium exploration rights in an area covering approximately 1 million hectares that straddles the edge of the Roraima Basin in Guyana. The company is advancing a two-pronged exploration strategy that focuses on:
- Exploration for multiple uranium-bearing structures within structural systems in the basement adjacent to the Roraima Basin with the concept that the individual breccia zones could potentially aggregate to a significant total resource; and


- Exploration for unconformity-related uranium deposits near the base of the Roraima Basin, which are similar to those of the prolific Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan.

Nota del editor del blog: Al referenciarse a la República Cooperativa de Guyana se deben de tener en cuenta los 159.500Km2, de territorios ubicados al oeste del río Esequibo conocidos con el nombre de Guayana Esequiba o Zona en Reclamación sujetos al Acuerdo de Ginebra del 17 de febrero de 1966.


Territorios estos sobre los cuales el gobierno Venezolano en representación de la Nación venezolana se reservo sus derechos sobre los territorios de la Guayana Esequiba en su nota del 26 de mayo de 1966 al reconocerse al nuevo Estado de Guyana .
“...por lo tanto, Venezuela reconoce como territorio del nuevo Estado, el que se sitúa al este de la margen derecha del río Esequibo y reitera ante la comunidad internacional, que se reserva expresamente sus derechos de soberanía territorial sobre la zona que se encuentra en la margen izquierda del precitado río; en consecuencia, el territorio de la Guayana Esequiba sobre el cual Venezuela se reserva expresamente sus derechos soberanos, limita al Este con el nuevo Estado de Guyana, a través de la línea del río Esequibo, tomando éste desde su nacimiento hasta su desembocadura en el Océano Atlántico...”
