Uranium mining in Canada
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Canada is the world's second-largest producer of uranium, behind Kazakhstan.[1] In 2009, 20% of the world's primary uranium production came from mines in Canada.[2] 14.5% of the world production came from one mine, McArthur River.[3] Currently, the only producing area in Canada is northern Saskatchewan, although other areas have had active mines in the past.[4]
