ITEM 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities

On February 9, 2011, Texas Rare Earth Resources Corp. (the “Company”) consummated a private offering pursuant to which it sold to an institutional accredited investor (i) 800,000 shares of Company common stock (the “Shares”) at a purchase price of $2.50 per share and (ii) and a common stock purchase warrant to purchase up to 800,000 shares of Company common stock, exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price of $2.50 per share (the “Warrant”).   As additional consideration for the purchase of the Shares and the Warrant, the Company has agreed grant to the investor a four month option (the “Option”) to purchase up to 3,200,000 shares of Company common stock at $2.50 per share and 100% warrant coverage through the issuance of a warrant to purchase up to 3,200,000 shares of Company common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share (“Option Warrant”). The transactional documents are substantially similar to the material contracts filed as exhibits 10.7 through 10.9 of the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2008, filed with the SEC on February 8, 2011. The Company has agreed to pay a finders’ fee equal to $120,000 in connection with the private placement and a five-year warrant to purchase 136,000 shares of Company common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share. In addition, the Company granted registration rights with respect to the resale of the Shares and shares of common stock underlying the Warrant issued to the investor, as well as the shares of common stock underlying the warrants issued as part of the finders’ fee.

The offers and sales described above were made without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and the securities laws of certain states, in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(2) of the Act and Regulation D under the Act and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. The sale of the Company’s common stock did not involve any public offering; each investor made representations regarding its investment intent, experience and sophistication; each investor either received or had access to adequate information about us in order to make an informed investment decision.  Having received representations to this effect, we believe that each investor is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined under Rule 501(a) of Regulation D; and no advertising or general solicitation was made in connection with the sale and issuance of the Company’s common stock.
