LEWISVILLE, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--February 6, 2013--Uranium Resources, Inc. (NASDAQ:URRE) (URI) announced that it received notification from the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) indicating that the Company has regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share for continued listing on NASDAQ.

On January 16, 2013, URI also regained compliance with NASDAQ rules requiring the Board of Directors to be comprised of a majority of independent directors and the Audit Committee to be comprised of at least three independent members.
