Workforce
Around 320 Cameco employees and 325 contractors, with approximately half being northern Saskatchewan residents. Another source states 530 employees.
Overview
The Cigar Lake mine, located in northern Saskatchewan, Canada, is an underground uranium mine operated by Cameco Corporation (54.547% ownership). Discovered in 1981, commercial operation began in 2015. It is known as the world's highest-grade uranium mine.
Production
Total packaged production in 2025 was 19.1 million pounds of U3O8 (100% basis). The 2024 production plan was 18 million pounds (100% basis). Average ore grade is 16.33% U3O8. Reserves as of Dec 31, 2025, were 94.1 million pounds U3O8.
Processing
Ore in slurry form is hauled 70 km to Orano's McClean Lake mill for processing. Mining method employs a jet-boring technique complemented by ground freezing.
Equipment
Underground mine, freezing plants, ore processing and load-out facilities, water treatment systems, mine rock storage pads, two shafts (Shaft 1 and Shaft 2).
Expansion
Cameco plans to begin work to extend the estimated mine life to 2036.

Overview
The Wheeler River Project is the largest undeveloped uranium project in the eastern Athabasca Basin. It hosts two high-grade uranium deposits: Phoenix and Gryphon. In February 2026, Denison's Board of Directors approved a Final Investment Decision for the construction of the Phoenix deposit, with site preparation and construction scheduled to begin in March 2026. The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) issued a licence to prepare the site and construct a mine and mill in February 2026, representing the final regulatory approval needed for construction to commence.
Production
First uranium production from the Phoenix operation is targeted for mid-2028. The project is anticipated to produce an annual average of 9 million pounds of uranium octoxide, with a potential peak production of 12 million pounds per year. Another estimate suggests production could be up to 5,400 tonnes of uranium oxide annually.
Processing
The Phoenix deposit will be mined using the in-situ recovery (ISR) method, the first time this method will be used for a uranium mine in Canada. The Gryphon deposit is subject to a pre-feasibility study for conventional underground mining.
Equipment
6 yd LHD (8); 2 boom Jumbo (2); Boom bolter (2); Mine survey vehicle (1); ITH with compressor (2); Electro/hydraulic production drill (2); Diamond drill + compressor (2); 30 tonne truck (6); 16–17 ton utility vehicle (2); 2 ton utility (Kubota) (5); Scissor lift (1); Transmixer (2); Shotcrete sprayer (2); Telehandler (1); Fuel lube truck (1); Kubota forklift 2.5 t (1); Grader (1).

Uranium
End year
2035
Mine life
10 years
Workforce
approximately 600 local jobs
Overview
The Kayelekera Uranium Mine, formerly operated by Paladin Energy, was on care and maintenance from 2014. Australian-based company Lotus Resources acquired an 85% interest in the project in 2020 and is the current operator, with the Government of Malawi holding the remaining 15%. Lotus restarted production at Kayelekera in August 2025. The mine is currently ramping up production, with the first blast in the open pit occurring in November 2025 to supplement ore stockpiles. The operation is on track to achieve a steady-state production level of 2.4 million pounds of U3O8 per annum in the second quarter of 2026. The restart is based on a 10-year mine life.
Production
The mine historically produced approximately 11 million pounds of U3O8 between 2009 and 2014. The targeted steady-state production rate following the restart is 2.4 million pounds of U3O8 per annum.
Processing
The operation uses shallow open pit mining with a low strip ratio. The processing plant utilises a debottlenecked flowsheet consisting of traditional milling, acid leach and resin-in-pulp (RIP) circuits. An on-site acid plant is being commissioned to support production.
Expansion
Lotus Resources completed a Definitive Feasibility Study for the restart in August 2022. In October 2024, the company announced an Accelerated Restart Plan with an initial capital expenditure of US$50 million. A Mine Development Agreement was signed with the Government of Malawi in July 2024, which provides a stable fiscal regime for 10 years. First yellowcake production from the restart was achieved in August 2025, on time and on budget.
