About Aura Energy (ASX: AEE, AIM: AURA) 

Aura Energy is an Australian-based mineral company with major uranium and
polymetallic projects in Africa and Europe.

The Company is focused on developing a uranium mine at the Tiris Uranium
Project, a major greenfield uranium discovery in Mauritania. 2024 FEED
Study 1  and Updated Production Target 2  demonstrated Tiris to be a near-term
low-cost 2Mlbs U(3)O(8) pa future uranium mine with a 25-year mine life with
excellent economics and optionality to expand to accommodate future resource
growth.

Aura plans to transition from a uranium explorer to a uranium producer to
capitalise on the rapidly growing demand for nuclear power as the world shifts
towards a decarbonised energy sector.

Beyond the Tiris Project, Aura owns 100% of the Häggån Project in Sweden.
Häggån contains a global-scale 2.5Bt vanadium, sulphate of potash ("SOP") 3 
and uranium 4  resource. Utilising only 3% of the resource, a 2023 Scoping
Study 5  outlined a 17-year mine life based on mining 3.5Mtpa.
