Investing in any security can be speculative and carries risk. Investments in any security should be made only after consulting with your registered investment advisor, and especially after reviewing company financial statements and company news releases. Only sophisticated investors should consider investments in micro-capitalized companies as an investment strategy and only as a highly speculative portion of his/her investment portfolio. All investors are urged to review company filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, and pay special attention to any and all RISK FACTORS announced by the company in its SEC filings. If one can not find such Risk Factors readily available to him/her, one should ask one’s registered financial advisor to provide a sample of potential risks for highly speculative investing. StockInterview.com neither purports to be an investment advisory service nor does it provide investment advice about any specific security or market sector. The primary function of StockInterview.com is to discuss the macroeconomic climate for nuclear power and other ‘big picture’ developments and/or trends.

Securities laws refer to this commentary as “forward looking statements.” Certain information contained on the StockInterview.com website may contain "forward looking statements" made by a featured company, its management, employees or those with alliances to, or investments in, the company and information within the meaning of Section 27of the Securities Act of 1993 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including any statement regarding expected continual growth of the featured company. While StockInterview.com is neither publicly traded nor seeks “safe harbor” under this provision, we believe investors should be aware of what is contained within, and meant by, forward-looking statements. In accordance with safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, statements contained herein that look forward in time, which include other than historical information, involve risks and uncertainties that may effect actual results of operations. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of a company, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, the following: risks inherent in restrictions of foreign ownership; uncertainties relating to carrying on business in foreign countries; a company’s history of operating losses and uncertainty of future profitability; dependence upon joint venture partners; the size and growth of the market for the company's products and/or services; the company's ability to fund its capital requirements in the near term and in the long term; pricing pressures, etc. With regards to mining exploration, it should be realized that only a very small percentage of exploration companies are likely to be successful in bringing into production an economic mine. The natural resources and mining industry has been riddled with frauds and hoaxes for decades, which adds additional speculative risk for even the most sophisticated investor. Reform attempts have been made, especially in the Canadian mining sector, to limit or minimize fraudulent behavior through the filing of independently reviewed documents, known as National Instrument 43-101. It should be understood that such documentation does not guarantee a resource will become an economic, operating mine. In nearly all instances, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission would not recognize the validity of a National Instrument 43-101 as being an economic orebody, unless it also met the criteria described in Section 7 of its rulings on mining operations. While StockInterview.com has concentrated its primary coverage on “uranium development companies,” which are advanced stage uranium companies, in light of the SEC definitions of mining exploration, development and producing companies, they must remain in the category of “exploration.” Because of the nature of in situ recovery (ISR) uranium operations, it may very well be impossible to meet the SEC criteria for a “uranium development company” until the company has actually begun its uranium recovery operations. Industry insiders have patiently explained to StockInterview.com the difference between an in situ recovery operation and conventional mining, and that because of the nature of the non-conventional in situ operation, it may also be possible to damage the ‘ore body’ or rollfront while proving up an economic reserve. Please understand this special nuance when reviewing a company’s resources in the context of how the SEC describes an economic orebody. Simply, it must be accepted that these are resources and not reserves, and that these companies are very likely to remain in the exploration category until they are actually mining uranium through the in situ recovery method. The majority of the companies featured on this website would very probably require dilutive financings to continue their exploration efforts or operations. Additional financings commonly dilute shareholder value and can impact a company’s share price. Because of the capital requirements demanded to build a mining operation, many companies may later be forced to take on debt financings to commence mining operations, if they are successful in their exploration and development, and this can also impact shareholder value. Many producing companies may also be forced to hedge, or sell forward, their future uranium production in order to satisfy bank financing requirements. Many companies may be forced to share a portion of their resource’s future production through joint ventures because of high capital costs or high exploration costs. It should be accepted that many of the featured companies are unlikely to become economic mining operations. Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, goals, assumptions or future events or performance should be recognized as forward looking statements. Forward looking statements are based on expectations, estimates and projections at the time the statements are made that involve a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those presently anticipated. Forward looking statements may be identified through the use of words such as expects, will, anticipates, estimates, believes, or by statements indicating certain actions may, could, should or might occur. Investors should be cautioned that any company may be unable to continue its projected growth rate, may be unable to fully implement its business strategies, or be unable to successfully integrate the operations of its various acquisitions. Investors should be further cautioned that any forward-looking statements made by any company are not guarantees of future performance. It should also be realized that any mining exploration is an extremely risk-oriented venture, and that many of the risk factors can not be completely realized until a company has actually commenced mining operations, or has been forced to discontinue its exploration or development efforts. In situ uranium recovery risks may include grade thickness, permeability, porosity, hydrology, environmental risk, political risk, property access risk, water rights, labor shortages, equipment shortages, reclamation risk, economic variables (such as the uranium price and operating costs), capital costs and other risks. Conventional uranium mining may carry these and additional risks, which can prevent the commencement of a mining operation. There are currently no conventional uranium mining operations in the United States . There is no guarantee or assurance there will ever again be conventional uranium mining in the United States . Current uranium supply/demand conditions have influenced the popularity of many junior uranium exploration companies, featured on StockInterview.com, and this may be subject to change by many variables. It should be noted that only a few of the ‘junior uranium companies’ have actually contracted with utilities for the purchase of their not-yet produced uranium. All such speculative investing carries a significant number of unknown variables and requires that all investors proceed with extreme caution in conjunction with investment advice by a registered investment advisor versed in the risks of natural resource and mining companies.
