Notes to the unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements                
June 30, 2006                                                                   
1    NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION                             
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared    
by the Corporation in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting    
principles ("Canadian GAAP"). The preparation of the financial statements is    
based on accounting policies and practices consistent with those used in the    
preparation of the audited annual consolidated financial statements. The        
accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be      
read in conjunction with the Notes to the Corporation"s audited annual          
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005,         
since they do not contain all disclosures required by Canadian GAAP for         
annual financial statements. The unaudited interim consolidated financial       
statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments, which are, in the      
opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim         
period presented.                                                               
sxr Uranium One Inc. (the "Corporation") is a Canadian corporation with a       
primary listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange and a secondary listing on the    
Johannesburg stock exchange, engaged in the acquisition, exploration and        
development of properties for production of uranium in South Africa,            
Australia and Canada and gold in South Africa.                                  
The Corporation owns 100% of the Dominion Uranium Project in South Africa       
and the permitted Honeymoon Uranium Project in South Australia. Through a       
joint venture with Pitchstone Exploration Limited, the Corporation is also      
engaged in uranium exploration activities in the Athabasca Basin of             
Saskatchewan. The Corporation"s Uranium One Africa Limited (previously          
Aflease Gold and Uranium Resources Limited) subsidiary holds 77% of Aflease     
Gold Limited, that owns the Modder East gold property and related gold          
assets in South Africa.                                                         
The exploration and development of mineral properties involves significant      
financial risk. In the event these properties are determined to be              
commercially viable, additional financing will be required.                     
Aflease Gold Limited                                                            
On January 10, 2006 Sub Nigel Gold Mining Company Limited ("Sub Nigel")         
acquired all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of New               
Kleinfontein Mining Company Limited ("New Kleinfontein"), a wholly-owned        
subsidiary of Aflease Gold and Uranium Resources Limited (now Uranium One       
Africa Limited "Uranium One Africa"), and all amounts due by New                
Kleinfontein to Uranium One Africa on loan account. As Uranium One Africa       
retained an effective 80% of New Kleinfontein through its subsequent holding    
in Aflease Gold, the net assets so acquired had a carrying value of $3.0        
million at December 31, 2005 and the purchase consideration was $10.7           
million, settled by issuing 68,073,545 new Sub Nigel ordinary shares to         
Uranium One Africa at 96 South African cents ($0.16) per share. Sub Nigel       
subsequently changed its name to Aflease Gold Limited. Through this             
transaction and subsequent dilution of Uranium One"s share holding in           
Aflease Gold, Uranium One Africa now owns approximately 77% of Aflease Gold.    
For accounting purposes, the transaction is considered a reverse takeover       
whereby New Kleinfontein is considered the acquiring company as the             
shareholders of Uranium One Africa acquired more than 50% of the issued and     
outstanding shares of Sub Nigel. Uranium One therefore effectively sold 20%     
of New Kleinfontein and recognized a $7.1 million gain on the disposal. The     
results of operations of Sub Nigel were included with effect from January       
11, 2006. The consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2006 represents the        
financial position of the entire Group.

The Ontario Securities Commission, as principal regulator of the                
Corporation, issued a decision document dated May 4, 2006, pursuant to the      
Mutual Reliance Review System for exemptive relief applications, granting       
the Corporation an exemption from providing comparative financial               
information for the three months ended June 30, 2006 as prior-period            
information has not been prepared on a basis consistent with this period.

The fair value of stock options used to calculate compensation expense has

assumptions:

Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair      
value estimate, and therefore the existing models do not necessarily provide    
a reliable measure of the fair value of the Company"s stock options.            
The following is a summary of the Corporation"s options granted under its

Future taxes of $1 million were provided on the profit of $7.1 million on       
disposal by Aflease of its investment in New Kleinfontein, which constitutes    
a capital gain.                                                                 
A fair value increment in mining assets of $17.7 million arose on the fair      
valuation of the assets of Sub Nigel that formed part of the reverse take       
over of Sub Nigel by New Kleinfontein. In compliance with accounting            
practice, a future tax liability of $5.1 million was recognized on this         
revaluation.

The effect of warrants and employee stock options is not included in            
computing the diluted per share amounts since, in the context of reported

8    REVERSE TAKE OVER OF SUB NIGEL                                             
In the current financial year the merger between Sub Nigel and New              
Kleinfontein was accomplished through the issue of Sub Nigel shares to          
Aflease in payment for all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of     
New Kleinfontein and all amounts due by New Kleinfontein to Aflease on loan     
account, as detailed in note 1.                                                 
Except for the cash taken over, this transaction has been excluded from the     
cash flow statement as it did not result in an exchange of cash.                
The aggregate fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the     
purchase of Sub Nigel were as follows:

an agreement of acquisition dated August 23, 2005. The effective date of the    
reverse take over was January 10, 2006.
