After a long stretch of inactivity, Cameco has started up operations again at McArthur River Mine and the Key Lake mill facility.
It recently turned out its first packaged shipment.
The mine and mill currently employ approximately 730 people, more than half of which are of Indigenous heritage.
Cameco is planning additional hiring for the sites going forward and is striving for a year-end workforce that has a higher representation of women and Indigenous people than from pre-shutdown levels.
