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.

  • Camsell Portage Athabasca Working Group Cannorth Environmental Monitoring Program ABOUT the AWG PROGRAM
    AWG 2014 Sampling in the Athabasca region since 2000 Camsell Portage Athabasca Working Group CanNorth Environmental Monitoring Program ABOUT THE AWG PROGRAM The Athabasca Working Group (AWG) environmental monitoring program marked its 15th year of sampling in the Athabasca region of northern Saskatchewan in 2014. 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 near the northern communities of Camsell Portage, Black Lake, Fond-du-Lac, Stony Rapids, Uranium City, and Wollaston Lake/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 results from the 2014 environmental monitoring program and look back on the results of the past 15 years of study in the Camsell Portage area. STUDY AREA Water, sediment, and fish are sampled from reference and potential exposure sites. White Lake is the reference site because it is not influenced by uranium operations. Ellis Bay of Lake Athabasca (Ellis Bay) is the potential exposure site because it is downstream of waterbodies that could carry parameters from upstream uranium operations. Air quality is monitored at two locations near the community of Camsell Portage.

  • Special Edition 2019
    Volume 3 - Issue 3 SPECIAL EDITION NEWSLETTER 2019 Notes from the Field This special edition of the newsletter contains trip reports, experiences, and highlights from remote atlassing expeditions during the 2019 season. This summer, staff and volunteers participated in 10 remote expeditions across the boreal forest and shield completing over 700 point counts, logging hundreds of hours of general atlassing, and encountering over 180 species! Trips ranged from multi-week river paddle trips to short five-day lake excursions, all totalled covering over 1,000 km of rivers and lakes all during the short 5-week ‘point count’ Progress to date season. Planning such efforts takes a great deal of logistical coordination, know-how, and persistence. Checklists 14,873 Janine McManus spent many months planning trips, meal prepping, and making countless emails and phone calls to spearheaded the effort to accomplish atlas coverage throughout Registered Participants 432 the north. Canoes and equipment were acquired and supplemented by generous loans from Atlas squares with data 2144 volunteers, Prince Albert National Park, and Eb’s Source for Adventure; float planes were booked and coordinated with Environment and Climate Change Canada collaborators to help Records 198,338 maximise cost efficiencies. Beginning May 15th, Janine put the backcountry crew of five through a ‘boreal songbird boot camp’. The crew was afforded overnight quarters during Breeding species 272 training, cabin use that was generously loaned to the atlas by Tara Sample’s family near Turtle Lake where the crew honed their birding skills in the species-diverse boreal fringe. Hours of atlassing 10,224 During training we also learned and refined paddling techniques and navigation skills, while gently acclimatizing to the early morning schedule.

  • Comprehensive Study Report for the Proposed Midwest Mining and Milling Project in Northern Saskatchewan, AREVA Resources Canada Incorporated
    Comprehensive Study Report for the Proposed Midwest Mining and Milling Project in Northern Saskatchewan, AREVA Resources Canada Incorporated Prepared by: Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Transport Canada (TC) Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment (SMOE) APRIL 2012 CEAR: 06-03-17519 e-DOC: 3881017 (WORD) e-DOC: 3892304 (PDF) e-DOC: 3881017 (WORD) e-DOC: 3892304 (PDF) Comprehensive Study Report for the Midwest Mining and Milling Project in Northern Saskatchewan, AREVA Resources Canada Incorporated EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Background This Comprehensive Study Report (CSR) has been collaboratively prepared as a common basis for a provincial environmental assessment (EA) under the Saskatchewan Environmental Assessment Act (SEAA) and the federal Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (CEA Act). Under the Canada-Saskatchewan Agreement on Environmental Assessment Cooperation, the federal and provincial EA process was coordinated for the proposal by AREVA Resources Canada Incorporated (AREVA) for the proposed Midwest Mining and Milling Project (the Midwest Project). AREVA is the majority owner and operator of the Midwest Project and the McClean Lake Operation. The McClean Lake Operation is a CNSC licensed uranium mine and mill facility located approximately 15 kilometres (km) east of the Midwest Project. Both the Midwest Project and McClean Lake Operation lie in the eastern margin of the Athabasca Basin of northern Saskatchewan. AREVA is proposing to extend the mining and milling activities at the McClean Lake Operation to include mining uranium ore at the Midwest site by open pit mining methods; hauling ore along a road linking the Midwest site with the existing McClean Lake Operation; and milling the uranium ore at the JEB Mill located at the McClean Lake Operation.

  • Geology of the Camsell Portage Area, Southern Zemlak Domain, Rae Province (Uranium City Project)
    Geology of the Camsell Portage Area, Southern Zemlak Domain, Rae Province (Uranium City Project) K.E. Ashton and R.C. Hunter 1 Ashton, K.E. and Hunter, R.C. (2004): Geology of the Camsell Portage area, southern Zemlak Domain, Rae Province (Uranium City Project); in Summary of Investigations 2004, Volume 2, Saskatchewan Geological Survey, Sask. Industry Resources, Misc. Rep. 2004-4.2, CD-ROM, Paper A-8, 12p. Abstract The Camsell Portage area includes a variety of foliated to gneissic granitoid rocks of inferred Archean age, psammopelitic to pelitic gneisses and migmatites, and widespread leucogranites, all of which were subjected to upper amphibolite facies metamorphism at about 1.9 Ga and multiple deformational events prior to intense and widespread mylonitization. Following exhumation, this basement complex was unconformably overlain by the Thluicho Lake Group, a fining-upward conglomerate-arkose-argillite succession that was metamorphosed to greenschist facies and doubly folded prior to uplift, erosion, and deposition of the Martin Group redbeds. Deposition of the Martin Group was accompanied by widespread diabase dyke emplacement at about 1.82 Ga along dominantly east-west normal faults, and both were subjected to north-trending folds attributed to the Trans- Hudson Orogen. A number of Cu-Pb-Ag±U showings are associated with the basal unconformity of the Thluicho Lake Group and the east-trending diabase dykes. The basin into which the Thluicho Lake Group was deposited appears to have originally been much larger, enhancing the potential for economic mineralization. Keywords: Zemlak Domain, Rae Province, Rae-Hearne Craton, Churchill Province, Uranium City, Thluicho Lake Group, Thelon-Taltson Orogen.
