Nuclear Facilities: Uranium Mines and Mills in Canada

Uranium is a naturally occurring radioactive element used for fuel in nuclear power reactors. Canada is one of the world's largest uranium producers. The majority of Canada's production is exported.
Uranium is mined to provide uranium ore which is processed at a milling facility to produce uranium concentrate. The uranium concentrate is then processed further to create fuel for nuclear reactors.

Operating Uranium Mines and Mills:

• Cigar Lake Mine (Saskatchewan)
• Key Lake Mill (Saskatchewan)
• McArthur River Mine (Saskatchewan)
• McClean Lake Mine and Mill  (Saskatchewan)
