The 150 million pounds of U₃O₈ (100% basis) produced at Cigar Lake has enabled our customers around the world to generate over 2,400 TWh of zero-carbon nuclear power. Based on calculations using IPCC and ECCC data, we estimate that by using nuclear power rather than coal or natural gas, utilities have avoided 1-2 billion tonnes of CO₂ emissions. This is up to three times Canada’s annual GHG emissions. “This is a proud moment for Cameco,” said Brian Reilly, chief operating officer.

Despite multiple setbacks, Cigar Lake mine began production in early 2014, using the jet-boring technique pioneered by Cameco specifically for its challenging geology. The mine has now produced 150 million pounds of uranium concentrate. “Looking back, there were times of uncertainty and sleepless nights wondering if we could make the machine perform as designed. Fortunately, we had an amazing team of professionals from many different backgrounds who persevered and made the JBS what it is today,” mine general supervisor Dylan Probert says.
