1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. The accompanying statements should be read in conjunction
with the audited financial statements included in the Company's 1998 Annual
Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30,
1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
full calendar year ending December 31, 1999.


2. FUTURE OPERATIONS

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the basis
of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the
realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course
of business. Due to a continued period of depressed prices for uranium as
compared to the Company's cost to produce uranium, the Company has generated
operating losses in each of the last two years. Operating losses have continued
during the first half of 1999. Such price declines have reduced the market price
of uranium to levels that are currently below the Company's cost to produce
uranium and below levels needed by the Company to obtain the necessary financing
to allow development of new production areas at its South Texas sites. Due to
circumstances described above, during the first quarter of 1999 the Company
shut-in its current producing operations until prices recover. The Company has
limited financial resources available to support its ongoing operations, fund
payments of debt, potential claims in litigation and provide for restoration of
its properties until such time, if ever, uranium prices recover to profitable
levels. Further, the Company will require additional capital resources to fund
the cost to resume production and to fund development of its undeveloped
properties. There is no assurance the Company will be successful in raising such
capital or that uranium prices will recover to levels which would enable the
Company to operate profitably. These factors, raise substantial doubt concerning
the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts (including
approximately $40.0 million in net property, plant and equipment) or the amount
and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable
to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a
going concern is dependent upon a recovery of uranium prices, its ability to
successfully produce uranium at economically feasible levels and its ability to
successfully raise capital to support ongoing operations and future development
efforts.

3. LONG-TERM DEBT

RESTRUCTURING OF NOTE

In June 1999, the Company entered into an agreement to restructure the
$6,000,000 secured convertible note that was issued to mutual funds managed by
Ryback Management Company. The restructuring provides for the mandatory
conversion of the debt into 6,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock,
providing the Company obtains the necessary long-term uranium sales contracts
and financing to allow the commencement of production at one of its uranium
projects. Interest on the debt will accrue but not be payable until the maturity
date, which was extended to December 31, 2000. Upon the maturity or the date of
conversion, the noteholders will have the option to be paid the accrued interest
in eighteen monthly installments or to convert the interest into shares of
common stock at the lesser of the then market price for such stock or $1.00 per
share. The noteholders also granted to the Company a right of first offer on the
transfer of the notes or any shares into which the notes are convertible.

CAPITALIZED INTEREST

Interest capitalized in the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 was
$305,000 and $300,000, respectively. Total interest costs in these periods were
$382,000 and $377,000, respectively.

4. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

COMMON STOCK

In June 1999, the Company issued 203,360 shares of common stock to
certain officers and directors of the Company in connection with the Uranium
Resources, Inc. 1999 Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan was
approved by a vote of the shareholders at the June 18, 1999 Annual Meeting.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward Looking Statements

This Item 2 contains "forward-looking statements" which are made
pursuant to the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, without limitation, statements
relating to liquidity, financing of operations, continued volatility of uranium
prices, estimates of future capital expenditures, proved undeveloped reserves
and other such matters. The words "believes," "expects," "projects," "targets,"
or "estimates" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. The
Company does not undertake to update, revise or correct any of the
forward-looking information. Readers are cautioned that such forward-looking
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's disclosures under
the heading: "Cautionary Statement for the Purposes of the `Safe Harbor'
Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995" in the
Company's 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Operating Cash Flows and Liquidity

For the quarter ended June 30, 1999, the Company's cash and cash
equivalents were $346,000 a decrease of $323,000 as compared to an increase of
$905,000 for the second quarter of 1998. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by
$3,367,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to a decrease of
$832,000 for the same period in 1998. The Company's uranium operations utilized
cash flow from operations of $17,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999, in
comparison to positive cash flow from operations in the same period in 1998 of
$3,804,000. Net cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999
was $1,126,000 compared to net cash provided by operations of $4,327,000 for the
same period in 1998. The Company's net working capital at June 30, 1999 was
$467,000.

As a result of the volatility of spot prices in the uranium
marketplace, during the first quarter of 1999 the Company shut-in and placed on
stand-by its two South Texas facilities. Nominal production from these sites
continued through July 1999 because their incremental production costs were at
or below the cost of purchasing uranium in the marketplace. The Company will
continue to maintain certain activities at these locations including its ongoing
groundwater restoration efforts. The Company has also begun implementing
additional steps in 1999 to preserve cash by reducing expenses and maximizing
the cash flow from its existing sales contracts.

The Company is consolidating certain of its administrative locations,
and reducing its workforce. The implementation of these measures was initiated
in the fourth quarter of 1998 and continue in 1999. The Company projects that
upon the successful implementation of these strategies it will be able to
maintain a continued positive liquidity position through 1999. To maintain a
positive liquidity position in 2000 the Company will need to meet the objectives
regarding new sales contracts and the infusion of capital required under the
restructured Note or for the Company to secure other alternative financing
options. If certain of these plans cannot be implemented and if alternative
options are not available, the Company's operations and liquidity would be
negatively impacted and it would be unlikely that the Company would be able to
continue operating as a going concern.

Investing Cash Flows

South Texas Projects

During the six months ending June 30, 1999, capital expenditures at the
Company's South Texas locations totaled $201,000. The Company's decision to put
its Kingsville Dome and Rosita sites on stand-by has reduced new capital
spending at these locations. The Company expects to fund its 1999 expenditures
at its South Texas projects from cash on hand, sales proceeds under 1999 uranium
deliveries and through existing financing arrangements.

New Mexico Projects

Capital expenditures at the Company's Churchrock and Crownpoint
projects for permitting and land holding costs totaled approximately $922,000
for the six months ending June 30, 1999 compared to costs of $959,000 for the
first half of 1998. Capital requirements for 1999 and beyond for these projects
are expected to be met through future sales proceeds from current and additional
uranium delivery contracts and through future sources of debt and/or equity
financing.

Financing Cash Flows

In May 1996, the Company entered into a $3.0 million revolving credit
facility. This facility was renewed and expanded for a two-year term to a $5.0
million credit facility in July 1997. In July 1999, the facility was amended to
extend the term for one year and to adjust the amount available under the
agreement to $3.0 million. This facility is secured by the Company's uranium
inventory and/or by receivables from its uranium sales contracts. Principal and
interest payments under the loan are due monthly, with interest on the loan
accruing at the prime rate plus 1%. Borrowings under this facility at June 30,
1999 totaled $700,000.

Other

In June 1999, the Company assigned its rights to deliver uranium in
2000 through 2002 (the final three years) under a uranium sales contract in
return for 124,000 pounds of uranium inventory. The inventory was received in
July 1999 and the transaction will be recorded in the third quarter of 1999.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS

The Company utilizes ISL solution mining technology as its only mining
method. Unlike conventional uranium mining companies, the Company's mining
technology does not create "tailings". Nevertheless, the Company is highly
regulated. Its primary environmental costs to date have been related to
obtaining and complying with environmental mining permits and, once mining is
completed, the reclamation and restoration of the surface areas and underground
water quality to a condition consistent with applicable requirements. Accruals
for the estimated future cost of such activities are made on a per-pound basis
as part of production costs. See the Consolidated Statements of Operations for
the applicable provisions for such future costs. See also Note 1 - "Restoration
and Reclamation Costs" of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the
Company's Form 10-K as of December 31, 1998.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues, earnings from operations and net income for the Company can
fluctuate significantly on a quarter to quarter basis during the year because of
the timing of deliveries requested by its utility customers. The Company's
customers have generally elected, where possible, to take delivery of the bulk
of the annual deliveries under their long-term sales contracts later in each
year. Accordingly, operating results for any quarter or year-to-date period are
not necessarily comparable and may not be indicative of the results, which may
be expected for future quarters or for the entire year.

(a) The Company ceased uranium production operations in the first quarter of
1999 when its South Texas projects were placed on stand-by. Costs while on
stand-by are expensed to operating expenses as they are incurred. A nominal
amount of production has occurred while the projects have been on stand-by, the
inventory resulting from such incidental production has been valued at the
current spot market cost.

The Company delivered 70,000 pounds of uranium in the first half of
1999 at an average sales price of $14.83 per pound. Total deliveries for 1999
are projected at approximately 500,000 pounds with the bulk of those scheduled
in the second half of the year. Total uranium deliveries in the first half of
1998 of 532,000 pounds were at an average sales price of $16.00 per pound and
generated revenues of $8,508,000.

Details of the cost of uranium sales were as follows:

The Company placed its South Texas production facilities on stand-by in
the first quarter of 1999 but continued to maintain nominal production for the
first half of 1999. Total production of 103,000 pounds during the first six
months of 1999 compared to 357,000 pounds of production in the six months ended
June 30, 1998. Certain production related activities have continued while the
facilities were on stand-by because the incremental cash costs (costs incurred
in addition to those required to maintain the projects while in a stand-by mode)
has been below the costs uranium could be purchased in the spot market.

Operating expenses in the first half of 1999 were $1,708,000 and
consisted of stand-by costs ($713,000) production sold ($572,000 or $8.17 per
pound) and a lower of cost or market adjustment ($423,000). Operating expenses
in the six months ended June 30, 1998 were attributable directly to the sale of
Kingsville Dome and Rosita produced pounds and totaled $2,131,000 ($6.22 per
pound).

The provision for restoration and reclamation in the first half of 1999
was $136,000 and consisted of $66,000 ($0.94 per pound) for production sold and
$70,000 for restoration related to a previous production site. The costs
incurred in the first half of 1999 compared to $323,000 ($0.94 per pound)
related to production sold during the same period in 1998 and $4,000 for other
restoration activities.

The depreciation and depletion provision in the six months ended June
30, 1999 was $349,000 and consisted of $273,000 ($3.90 per pound) for produced
uranium sold and $76,000 for depreciation while on stand-by. Comparable costs
for the first half of 1998 were $2,718,000 ($7.93 per pound) resulting from
Rosita and Kingsville Dome production sold during that period.

The Company incurred royalty expenses of $57,000 in the first half of
1999 compared to royalty expenses in the first six months of 1998 of $276,000.

No uranium purchases were made in the first six months of 1999. Uranium
purchases of 200,000 were made in the first half of 1998 at an average cost of
$10.66 per pound. Total deliveries in the first six months of 1998 consisted of
343,000 produced pounds at an average cost per pound of $16.54 and 189,000
purchased pounds at a cost of $10.66 per pound.

Corporate expenses consisting of general and administrative ("G&A")
expenses decreased to $1,006,000 in the first half of 1999 from $1,285,000 in
the first half of 1998. This reduction resulted primarily from the
implementation of the Company's cost reduction program which began in the fourth
quarter of 1998 and will continue throughout 1999.

YEAR 2000 READINESS

The Company currently utilizes computer software in the management of
its operations and in accounting for its operating results that could be
affected by the date change in the year 2000 (the "Y2K issue"). All critical
information technology software and systems utilized by the Company has been
purchased from and are supported by third party vendors. The Company has
conducted a review of the potential impact of the year 2000 on such systems, and
believes that it will not encounter significant operational or financial costs
related to compliance with this issue.

The Y2K issue also involves the impact of the date change in the year
2000 on machines and process controls which may utilize embedded technology as a
part of their components. The Company relies on certain non-information
technology systems such as telephones, facsimile machines, and other equipment
which may have embedded technology such as microprocessors, which may or may not
be year 2000 compliant. The assessment of this technology is outside of the
Company's control and such technology could adversely affect the Company's
ability to conduct business. Management believes any such disruption is not
likely to have a significant effect on the Company's financial position or
operations.

The Company may also be impacted by the Y2K issues of certain of the
Company's third-party suppliers and its customers. The third-party suppliers,
vendors, and customers area is currently in the assessment phase.

12


Formal communications have been initiated with the Company's vendors, customers
and others with whom the Company has significant business relationships. The
Company continues to evaluate responses and make additional inquiries as needed.
As the Company is in the process of collecting this information from third
parties, management cannot currently determine whether third party compliance
issues will materially affect its operations. However, the Company is not
currently aware of any third party issues that would cause a significant
business disruption. Management anticipates a complete evaluation to conclude in
the third quarter of 1999.
