Challenge to renewal of uranium exploration license in Slovakia

European Uranium’s Kuriskova License Renewal Challenged  Daily Finance, by Business Wire via The Motley Fool Aug 22nd 2013   VANCOUVER, British Columbia – European Uranium Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:EUU) (OTCQX:EUUNF) (FWB:TGPN) reports that following an appeal from anti-uranium mining activists in Slovakia, the General Prosecutor of Slovakia has challenged the renewal of the exploration license on which the Kuriskova uranium deposit is located (the “Kuriskova Licence”). The Kuriskova License was renewed by the Geology Division of the Ministry of Environment (the “Ministry”) until April 19, 2015. The Ministry originally refused to consider the appeal but has now agreed to review its decision to renew the licence.
