Summary of the Target's Significant Assets

Through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Target holds a lease over the Property, which is located in the Dolores and San Miguel Counties (the "Lease"). The Lease is subject to certain royalty interests and annual fees.

The Dolores Anticline Property

-------------------------------

The Dolores Anticline covers a 19,255 acre parcel of property in the Dolores and San Miguel counties in south-western Colorado, USA. The Dolores Anticline is a salt-cored anticlinal structure which has previously hosted such deposits as the Bull Snake mine; additionally, the property is in very close proximity to Denison's White Mesa uranium mill. The property is within a one-hour drive of the town of Dove Creek, Colorado, which is located approximately 100 air kilometres northwest of Durango, Colorado.

The Target's interest in the Dolores Anticline is held through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Target pursuant to an exclusive mining lease dated May 30, 2006 with Kee Nez Resources, LLC of Colorado as the registered holder, and Mayan Minerals Ltd. ("Mayan") of British Columbia as the beneficial owner. The lease is for a term of 5 years with an option to extend for a further 5 years. Pursuant to the terms of the lease, the Target's subsidiary must make annual lease payments on May 30th of each year, with US$50,000 due in 2009 and US$100,000 each year thereafter prior to the commencement of production. There are no minimum exploration expenditures stipulated for the claims in the lease.

The claims are subject to royalties (from which the above-noted lease payments are deductible) ranging from 2% to 15% of the spot market price of uranium, and 3% of net returns in the case of all other ores, minerals, or other products removed from the leased property.

Warren McIntyre, President and CEO of Atomic, said "We are pleased that Everett will continue with the exploration and development of the Dolores Anticline, which will allow us to continue to focus our efforts on our land package in Tanzania. , We currently have SRK Consulting of East Africa doing an assessment and evaluation of the mineral potential of our PL 4335 license in the Mbinga area of Tanzania. In addition, our VP Exploration, Peter Chadwick is co-ordinating ground efforts on PL 4433 to follow up to our magnetic airborne survey. The Company is looking forward to creating value for our shareholders from these efforts."

Atomic has elected to terminate the lease on the group of 272 mining claims located in the Grand County area of Colorado, which were originally leased by the Target on September 11, 2006. The acquisition of the Grand County claims by Atomic was announced on January 22, 2007.
