Environmental approval for the Midwest uranium project in Saskatchewan
Environmental approval for the Midwest uranium project in Saskatchewan: http://www.world-nuclear-news.org/ENF-Environmental_approval_for_Canadian_mine-2008124.html
..."The Midwest project is located some 15km west of the McClean Lake
operation. It has indicated resources of 42.9 million pounds U3O8
(16,500 tU) at an average ore grade of 5.5%. The project involves
development of the Midwest ore deposit as an open pit mine; development
of a dedicated haul road linking the Midwest development with the
existing McClean Lake operation; and increasing the production capacity
of the JEB mill at McClean Lake to accommodate the planned rate for
milling of the Midwest ore. The partners in the Midwest joint venture
comprise Areva Resources Canada (69.16%), Denison (25.17%) and OURD
Canada Co (5.67%). Midwest is to be operated by Areva Resources, which
already operates McClean Lake."
