<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Westwater respectively submits that the disclosure set forth in the Preliminary Proxy Statement concerning Alabama Graphite&#146;s properties complies with the requirements of Regulation 14A because Regulation 14A does not require the more extensive mineral property disclosure set forth in Industry Guide 7. Further, Westwater does not currently control Alabama Graphite or any of Alabama Graphite&#146;s properties and will not have access to the level of information required by Industry Guide 7 until after the closing of the acquisition.

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Notably, Westwater is <u>not</u> required to provide disclosure concerning Alabama Graphite&#146;s properties under Item 102 of Regulation S-K or otherwise which would entail the detailed disclosure required by Industry Guide 7. While Westwater elected to provide a brief overview of Alabama Graphite&#146;s properties in the Alabama Graphite MD&amp;A, there is no requirement or obligation that Westwater expand that brief overview into an extensive description that would satisfy Industry Guide 7. We believe that the absence of such a requirement reflects that an acquiring company seldom has access to the extensive information required to create accurate disclosure compliant with Industry Guide 7. Indeed, Westwater will not have access to such information until after it acquires Alabama Graphite at the closing of the acquisition.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-indent:.5in;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Westwater provided the brief overview of Alabama Graphite&#146;s properties in the Alabama Graphite MD&amp;A because Alabama Graphite has traditionally provided such information to its shareholders and such information was readily available for the Preliminary Proxy Statement. While Westwater continues to believe that a brief overview of Alabama Graphite&#146;s properties is appropriate for inclusion in the definitive Proxy Statement, Westwater proposes removing such disclosure altogether if the Staff do not concur with such disclosure being presented without the more fulsome detail required by Industry Guide 7.</font></p>
