Brief
The Cluff Lake Mine ceased production in December 2002 and is now preparing for decommissioning. Despite winding down operations, the mineworkers did not have a Lost Time Accident in either 2001 or 2002. Cluff achieved near record production in its last year producing 4.2 million pounds of U3O8.
Over its 22-year life, the mine produced more than 62 million pounds of U3O8. Cluff staff are now doing site clean-up work, mothballing the mill and awaiting regulatory approval to begin decommissioning.
