Denison Intersects 43.2% eU3O8 Over 10.3 Metres at Wheeler River

The following corrects and replaces a release issued on behalf of Denison Mines Corp. There were changes made to the table, Wheeler River Summer 2013 Drilling Highlights To Date.

Denison Mines Corp. (DML.TO)(NYSE MKT:DNN) ("Denison" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that drill hole WR-525 along the western margin of the Phoenix A deposit intersected 10.3 metres of 43.2% eU₃O₈, which represents the highest grade x thickness product (GT) of any drill hole on the Wheeler River property at 445.0 %m.

Wheeler River

The summer 2013 drill program is well underway with 15 of 23 planned drill holes having been completed; four at Phoenix A, three at Phoenix North and eight at the 489 Zone. The inset in the attached figure shows the location of the drilling areas relative to the Phoenix deposits. The highlights of the program to date are summarized in the table and discussed in more detail below.

All four drill holes completed at Phoenix A were designed to evaluate possible high grade extensions outside of the higher grade domain as defined in the most recent mineral resource estimate dated December 31, 2012. Three of the four drill holes have intersected high grade mineralization, with WR-525 intersecting the highest GT of any drill hole on the property. WR-525 was drilled west of the current western margin of the higher grade domain and intersected 10.3 metres of 43.2% eU₃O₈ (GT=445.0 %m). WR-527 and WR-528 were drilled east of the current eastern margin of the higher grade domain and they intersected 1.7 metres of 16.4% eU₃O₈ (GT=27.9 %m) and 3.1 metres of 13.0% eU₃O₈ (GT=40.3 %m), respectively. The Phoenix A drill hole locations are shown on the attached figure. The intersection in WR-525 may result in additional holes being drilled along the western margin of Phoenix A this summer.

The other objectives of the summer program were to follow-up on the low grade mineralization identified at the 489 Zone and complete further drilling at the Phoenix North area. At the 489 Zone, low grade mineralization was intersected in WR-518 on the first fence to follow up on mineralization intersected in the winter 2013 drilling program. This first fence was a 300 metre step out along strike to the northeast of previously reported mineralization. Drill hole WR-518 intersected 3.2 metres of 0.32% eU₃O₈. Drilling is currently underway on the next 300 metre step-out to the northeast. Drilling at the 489 Zone continues to show positive indications for the discovery of higher grade mineralization, including the presence of strong graphitic fault zones in the basement and encouraging sandstone alteration and geochemistry. Drilling in the Phoenix North area has not returned any significant mineralization at this time, however several targets remain there.

As mineralization in the Phoenix deposit is sub-horizontal and the drill holes in the table are vertical, the true thickness is expected to be approximately equal to the intersection length. The Wheeler River property lies between the McArthur River mine and Key Lake mill complex in the Athabasca Basin in northern Saskatchewan. Denison is the operator and holds a 60% interest in the project. Cameco Corporation holds a 30% interest and JCU (Canada) Exploration Company, Limited holds the remaining 10% interest.

Other Activities

Denison is also completing exploration programs at seven other Athabasca Basin properties this summer; Waterbury Lake (60% Denison, 40% KEPCO), Packrat (100% Denison), South Dufferin (100% Denison), Johnston Lake (100% Denison) and Moon Lake (55% Denison, 45% Uranium One). Linecutting and geophysical surveying is underway at Waterbury Lake and will be followed by diamond drilling on two new target areas in August. A six hole diamond drilling program is underway on structural/geophysical targets at the Packrat property. At South Dufferin, a program consisting of 10 diamond drill holes on geophysical targets is planned to begin at the end of July. At Johnston Lake a program of linecutting and ground geophysics is currently underway. This will be followed by a six hole diamond drilling program later in the summer to follow up on historic uranium intersections there. At Bachman Lake (100% Denison), International Enexco is funding a five drill hole exploration program to evaluate electromagnetic conductors to earn a 20% interest. The Bachman Lake program will be carried out simultaneously with a two hole drilling program at Moon Lake.
