Dear Pat Obara:
We have reviewed your April 2, 2024 response to our comment
letter and have the
following comment.
Please respond to this letter within ten business days by
providing the requested
information or advise us as soon as possible when you will respond. If
you do not believe a
comment applies to your facts and circumstances, please tell us why in
your response.
After reviewing your response to this letter, we may have

Form 10-K/A for the Fiscal Year Ended July 31, 2023
Item 15. Exhibits, Financial Statement Schedules
96.4, page 102
1. We note your revisions
to the technical report summary in response to prior comment 4,
pertaining to
disclosures of the cut-off grade and the inclusion of underground mining
costs in the cut-off
grade calculation. For example we note that the cut-off grade has
stayed the same with
the inclusion of underground mining costs, however you have
increased the commodity
pricing and decreased the processing costs. The types of changes
proposed in your
response may be considered in an updated or new technical report
summary, to support
disclosures that may be made in a future periodic report, though
would generally not be
appropriate as revisions to a prior technical report summary.
Please revise the
technical report summary to include the underground mining cost and the

original assumptions reported with your July 31, 2023 annual report.
We would expect
the revised calculations to increase the cut-off grade resulting in a
reduction in mineral
resources. Please coordinate with the qualified persons involved in
preparing the technical
report summary to ensure that content throughout the report is revised
as necessary. Please
similarly revise all corresponding information in your annual report.
You may provide us
with draft disclosures for review in advance of filing the amendments.
The content of any updated or new technical report summary that you
obtain to support
future disclosures should provide clear explanations for any changes
in assumptions that
materially correlate with project economics, as this may include the
cut-off grade, prices,
costs and quantification of resources, relative to those requirements.
In your response, and not in your filing, please explain to us the
difference in the
processing and underground mining cut-off grade cost profile with
respect to the
Horseshoe-Raven project and the Roughrider Uranium project. In this
regard we note the
cost assumptions used in the Roughrider Uranium cut-off calculation
are
significantly greater that the Horseshoe-Raven cut-off grade cost
assumptions.
Please contact Steve Lo at 202-551-3394 or Shannon Buskirk at
202-551-3717 if you
have questions regarding comments on the financial statements and related
matters. Please
contact John Coleman at 202-551-3610 or Craig Arakawa at 202-551-3650 if you
have questions
regarding mining comments.
