Earlier today, Uranium Energy Corp. announced that the company is being added to the S&P/TSX Global Mining Index effective at the market open on December 20, 2010. Designed to provide an investable representative index of the world’s leading publicly-traded mining companies, the S&P/TSX Global Mining Index provides investors with both diverse geographic exposure to mining companies and broad-based exposure to metals and minerals.

Amir Adnani, President and CEO of Uranium Energy, commented, “Addition to the S&P/TSX Global Mining Index is a very important achievement for Uranium Energy, one that follows our addition to the Russell 2000/3000 Indexes during the past two years. It reflects the progress we have made this year including advancing our growth plans as the newest uranium producer in the U.S. We will continue to work to build the value of the Company as well as its following within the investment community.”
