US ISR Operations
As a result of our 2016 decision, commercial production at the US operations ceased in 2018. We expect ongoing cash and non-cash care and maintenance costs to range between $12.5 million (US) and $14.5 million (US) for 2024.
Environment & Safety
Worker safety, environmental monitoring and proper decommissioning after project completion are of the utmost importance to Cameco.

Our mineral reserves and resources are the foundation of our company and fundamental to our success.
