Len Wiebe, Joe Tresnich and Mike Matko, plus Thor Grant and Ernie Mooney doing the supervising. Around 125,000 lineal feet of sprags are used in the Mine during a year. These are cut along the flux line and delivered as needed. Quite a few of these sprags are used in cribbing operations, which means that they have to be framed.

Men seen working on this job were Andy Jacobson, Wilf Camsell, Joe Cooper and Neil McKinnon.

  • Uranium City, Black Lake, Camsell Portage, Fond Du Lac, Stony Rapids, and Wollaston/Hatchet Lake
    CanNorth 2015 AthabascaUranium Working City Group Environmental Monitoring Program ABOUT THE AWG PROGRAM The Athabasca Working Group (AWG) environmental monitoring program began in the Athabasca region of northern Saskatchewan in 2000. The program provides residents with opportunities to test the environment around their communities for parameters that could come from uranium mining and milling operations. These parameters can potentially be spread by water flowing from lakes near the uranium operations, and small amounts may also be spread through the air. In order to address local residents’ concerns, lakes, rivers, plants, wildlife, and air quality are tested each yeah near the northern communities of Uranium City, Black Lake, Camsell Portage, Fond du Lac, Stony Rapids, and Wollaston/Hatchet Lake. The types of plants and animals selected, the locations chosen for sampling, and the sample collections were carried out by, or with the help of, northern community members. The purpose of this brochure is to inform the public of the 2015 environmental monitoring program results in the Uranium City area. STUDY AREA Water, sediment, and fish were sampled from a reference site and a potential exposure site in the Uranium City area in 2015. Fredette Lake was chosen as the reference site because it is not influenced by uranium operations. Black Bay of Lake Athabasca (Black Bay) is referred to as the potential exposure site because it is located downstream of the active uranium operations in northern Saskatchewan. Air quality is monitored at two locations near the community of Uranium City and plant and wildlife samples are collected each year near the community when available.

  • Wheeler River Project Provincial Technical Proposal and Federal Project Description
    Wheeler River Project Provincial Technical Proposal and Federal Project Description Denison Mines Corp. May 2019 WHEELER RIVER PROJECT TECHNICAL PROPOSAL & PROJECT DESCRIPTION Wheeler River Project Provincial Technical Proposal and Federal Project Description Project Summary English – Page ii French – Page x Dene – Page xx Cree – Page xxviii PAGE i WHEELER RIVER PROJECT TECHNICAL PROPOSAL & PROJECT DESCRIPTION Summary Wheeler River Project The Wheeler River Project (Wheeler or the Project) is a proposed uranium mine and processing plant in northern Saskatchewan, Canada. It is located in a relatively undisturbed area of the boreal forest about 4 km off of Highway 914 and approximately 35 km north-northeast of the Key Lake uranium operation. Wheeler is a joint venture project owned by Denison Mines Corp. (Denison) and JCU (Canada) Exploration Company Ltd. (JCU). Denison owns 90% of Wheeler and is the operator, while JCU owns 10%. Denison is a uranium exploration and development company with interests focused in the Athabasca Basin region of northern Saskatchewan, Canada with a head office in Toronto, Ontario and technical office in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Historically Denison has had over 50 years of uranium mining experience in Saskatchewan, Elliot Lake, Ontario, and in the United States. Today, the company is part owner (22.5%) of the McClean Lake Joint Venture which includes the operating McClean Lake uranium mill in northern Saskatchewan. To advance the Project, Denison is applying an innovative approach to uranium mining in Canada called in situ recovery (ISR). The use of ISR mining at Wheeler means that there will be no need for a large open pit mining operation or multiple shafts to access underground mine workings; no workers will be underground as the ISR process is conducted from surface facilities.

Gidluck UNIVERSITY OF REGINA FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES AND RESEARCH SUPERVISORY AND EXAMINING COMMITTEE Lynn Eileen Gidluck, candidate for the degree of Special Case Doctor of Philosophy Interdisciplinary, has presented a thesis titled, Building Social Capital Through Sport, Culture and Recreation: An Experiment in Collaborative Governance in Saskatchewan Using The Proceeds of State-Directed Gambling, in an oral examination held on June 19, 2015. The following committee members have found the thesis acceptable in form and content, and that the candidate demonstrated satisfactory knowledge of the subject material.

Very little research has been conducted that explores the interface between the generation of revenue from state-directed gambling and efforts that governments make to use this revenue source for a social purpose.

  • PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT AID 539 Mining and Access Roads
    PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT AID 539 Mining and Access Roads.—In 1951 the Department of Mines undertook a program of road construction in the mineralized areas of the province, to open them for prospecting and development and to facilitate the actual operation of mining enterprises. When the importance of this program in its relation to the whole development of northern Ontario became apparent, the Government decided that its scope should be widened and, with that end in view, an interdepartmental committee was set up early in 1955 to decide on matters of policy and to determine the locations and priorities of the proposed roads. The Minister of Mines sits on this committee with the Ministers of Lands and Forests, of Treasury, of Highways and of Reform Institutions. The Department of Highways supervises the construction of all access roads. Certain roads may be subsidized while others may be financed solely by Department of Mines funds. The sum of $1,500,000 a year has been made available for such projects. Manitoba.—The Mines Branch of the Manitoba Department of Mines and Natural Resources offers five main services of assistance to the mining industry: maintenance, by the Mining Recorder's offices at Winnipeg and The Pas, of all records essential to the granting and retention of titles to every mineral location in Manitoba; compilation, by the geological staff of the Branch, of historical and current information pertinent to mineral occurrences of interest and expansion of this information by a continuing program of geological mapping; enforcement of mine safety regulations and, by collaboration with industry, introduction of new practices such as those concerned with mine ventilation and the training of mine rescue crews which contribute to the health and welfare of mine workers; and maintenance of a chemical and assay laboratory to assist the prospector and the professional man in the classification of rocks and minerals and the evaluation of mineral occurrences.
