PURCHASE AGREEMENT

                  This Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the 10th day of October, 2007 by and between American Uranium Corporation, a Nevada corporation (“Purchaser”), 600 17th Street, Suite 2800 South, Denver, Colorado 80202, and Power Resources, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“PRI”), 141 Union Blvd, Suite 330, Lakewood, Colorado 82228. Purchaser and PRI are referred to collectively in this Agreement as the “Parties,” and individually as a “Party.”

RECITALS

                  WHEREAS, PRI owns data on the Reno Creek uranium prospect located in Campbell County, Wyoming, consisting of drill hole geophysical logs, lithologic logs, drill hole maps, geologic cross sections, and environmental data (referred to herein collectively as the “Geologic Data”), all more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto.

 

                  WHEREAS, Purchaser owns or controls an interest in certain mining properties at the Reno Creek prospect. Purchaser’s mining properties that comprise this prospect are described in Exhibit B attached hereto.

 

                   WHEREAS, Purchaser desires to purchase the Geologic Data from PRI that pertains to the mining properties Purchaser currently owns or controls (the “Purchased Geologic Data”).

 

                   WHEREAS, PRI wishes to grant Purchaser the exclusive right to purchase the Purchased Geologic Data from PRI under the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

 

                  NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual promises, representations, covenants, conditions and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound by the terms hereof, covenant and agree as follows:


1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF DATA.

                   In accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, PRI hereby agrees to sell, and Purchaser agrees to purchase, at and on the date of the Closings described in Section 4 below, the Purchased Geologic Data.

2. PURCHASE PRICE.

                  The Purchased Geologic Data to be sold by PRI to Purchaser with respect to the Reno Creek prospect is described in Exhibit A attached hereto. The Parties agree that the Purchased Geologic Data shall consist of only data that pertains to Purchaser’s properties described in Exhibit attached hereto and which Pruchaser owns or controls at the time of execution of this Agreement, and it shall not include any interpretive data prepared by PRI.

                  The consideration to be paid by Purchaser to PRI for the Purchased Geologic Data shall be $950,000 (U.S.).



3. DATA REVIEW.

                   The Purchased Geologic Data shall be assembled by PRI at its Casper, Wyoming office for Purchaser’s review within fortyfive days from the date of this Agreement. Purchaser may conduct its review of the Purchased Geologic Data upon providing three business days prior written notice to PRI, during PRI’s regular business hours. Purchaser may review the Purchased Geologic Data to satisfy itself that the Purchased Geologic Data is in a condition satisfactory to Purchaser, but shall not be entitled to make copies of any of the Purchased Geologic Data. Should Purchaser determine, in its sole discretion, that the Purchased Geologic Data is not satisfactory, Purchaser shall give PRI written notice that it is terminating its right to purchase the Purchased Geologic Data and list the data deficiencies that resulted in such decision. Such notice shall be delivered to PRI, in accordance with Section 8, within five days after Purchaser’s review of the Purchased Geologic Data. PRI may, in its sole discretion, elect to cure the data deficiencies identified by the Purchaser. PRI's failure to cure the deficiencies within thirty days of its receipt of Purchaser’s rejection notice shall cause this Agreement to automatically terminate, unless the Parties agree otherwise in writing.

4. CLOSING.

                   The closings for the purchase and sale of the Purchased Geologic Data shall be no later than ten days after Purchaser reviews and accepts the Purchased Geologic Data. Closings shall be at a date and time mutually acceptable to Purchaser and PRI, but in no event shall the Closing be later than December 31, 2007.

                   At the Closing for the Purchased Geologic Data, Purchaser shall deliver to PRI $950,000 (U.S.) in the form of a cashier’s check, or wire transfer. Purchaser shall also pay any sales or use taxes, if any, applicable to the sale of the Purchased Geologic Data.

                   At the Closing PRI shall deliver to Purchaser a Bill of Sale for the Purchased Geologic Data, in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto. At the Closing, title to the Purchased Geologic Data and risk of loss with respect thereto shall pass to Purchaser upon delivery of the Bill of Sale by PRI.

                   Following the Closing, Purchaser shall have access to the delivery site during normal business hours to facilitate the safeguarding and removal of the Purchased Geologic Data. Purchaser shall, at its sole expense, remove the Purchased Geologic Data it has purchased from the Casper office within five business days following that Closing, unless other arrangements are mutually agreed upon between the Parties.

5. CONDITIONS TO CLOSING.

                   PRI shall have no obligation to consummate the Closing of the sale of the Purchased Geologic Data if the representations and warranties of Purchaser set forth in Section 7 are not true and correct as of the Closing. Neither Party shall be obligated to consummate the Closing of the sale of the Purchased Geologic Data if any court, arbitrator or governmental agency shall have issued any order, decree or ruling, or if there exists any statute, rule or regulation restraining, enjoining or prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.
