Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, December 14, 2015 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Cameco (TSX: CCO; NYSE: CCJ) announced today that production from the Cigar Lake mine in northern Saskatchewan has surpassed 10 million pounds of uranium concentrate (Cameco’s share 5 million pounds).

Ore from the Cigar Lake mine is milled at the McClean Lake operation owned by AREVA (70%), Denison Mines Inc. (22.5%) and OURD Canada Co. Ltd. (7.5%) and operated by AREVA. Ore is transported 70 kilometres by truck from the Cigar Lake mine to the McClean Lake mill for processing into uranium concentrate.
