Our Company
Orano Canada, headquartered in Saskatoon, SK, has been a leader in the exploration, mining, and production of Canadian uranium for over 55 years.
Orano Canada is a subsidiary of the French nuclear energy company Orano Group. Our presence in Canada began with uranium exploration in the 1960’s and the development of the Cluff Lake mine in the 1980’s, and continued with mines and a mill at McClean Lake and partnerships in several other sites in the Athabasca Basin such as the Cigar Lake mine. Today, Orano employs about 450 people in Saskatchewan, with many employees and contractors from northern communities.
