position is based upon its large, high-grade reserves and low-cost operations,
significant market position and access to other supplies of uranium. Cameco is

uranium hexafluoride (“UF6”) in the western world and the only commercial

in the western world. Cameco, through subsidiaries, has a 31.6% limited

nuclear electricity generating facility. Bruce Power has six nuclear reactors at
the facility in service. The Company continues to explore for uranium in a
number of countries.
