All amounts in Canadian dollars unless specified otherwise

Cameco( TSX: CCO; NYSE: CCJ) reported today that it filed a technical report for the Inkai operation on a voluntary basis under National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure of Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101"). The technical report is being filed to provide updated information relating to the Inkai operation and not as a result of a requirement under NI 43-101. The technical report has been posted on our website and SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR on the SEC website at www.sec.gov . Our website, SEDAR+ and EDGAR are not part of this press release and are not incorporated by reference herein. Readers are encouraged to read the technical report in its entirety, including all qualifications, assumptions and exclusions therein.

Additionally, Cameco filed a short form base shelf prospectus dated November 12, 2024 (the "Base Shelf Prospectus") with the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces and territories of Canada, and a corresponding shelf registration statement on Form F-10 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission under the Multijurisdictional Disclosure System (File No. 333-283140) (the "U.S. Registration Statement"). These filings allow Cameco to make offerings of common shares, preferred shares, warrants, subscription receipts, debt securities and units or any combination thereof, having an aggregate offering price of up to $2 billion (US) (or its equivalent in another currency) during the next 25 months in Canada and the United States. The specific terms of any offering of securities will be set forth in a shelf prospectus supplement.

In addition, Cameco has entered into an equity distribution agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") dated November 12, 2024 with TD Securities Inc., CIBC World Markets Inc. and Scotia Capital Inc., as Canadian agents, and TD Securities (USA) LLC, CIBC World Markets Corp. and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc., as U.S. agents, to establish an at-the-market equity program (the "ATM Program") that allows Cameco to issue, at its discretion, up to $500 million (US) (or its Canadian dollar equivalent) of common shares from treasury to the public from time to time. The ATM Program is established pursuant to a prospectus supplement to the Base Shelf Prospectus (the "Canadian ATM Supplement"), and a corresponding prospectus supplement to the U.S. Registration Statement (the "U.S. ATM Supplement"). The ATM Program will be effective until December 12, 2026, unless fully utilized or terminated before such date in accordance with the terms of the Distribution Agreement.

Subject to the terms of the Distribution Agreement, the volume and timing of distributions under the ATM Program, if any, will be determined at Cameco's sole discretion. As common shares sold in the ATM Program will be distributed at the prevailing market price at the time of the sale, prices may vary among purchasers during the period of the distribution. Any common shares sold in the ATM Program will be sold in transactions that are deemed to be "at-the-market distributions" as defined in National Instrument 44-102 - Shelf Distributions, through the Toronto Stock Exchange, the NYSE or by any other method permitted by law, at the prevailing market price at the time of sale.

Net proceeds of the ATM Program, if any, are expected to fund development opportunities, future acquisitions, repayment of indebtedness, and/or other general corporate purposes.

"Today, our balance sheet is strong, and with the return to our tier-one production run rate and cost basis, we expect continued strong cash flow generation," said Grant Isaac, Cameco's Executive Vice-President and CFO. "And, we are adding to the tools we have available to fund future capital requirements, which include our operating cash flow, our existing credit facilities, new credit facilities, and additional capital raised through debt or equity financings. We believe having all these financial tools in place is prudent, providing us with added flexibility to support our strategy and to self-manage risk into the future."

Cameco has filed the Base Shelf Prospectus and the Canadian ATM Supplement with the securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces and territories of Canada, and has filed the U.S. Registration Statement and the U.S. ATM Supplement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

Cameco and Energoatom Agree on Commercial Terms to Supply Ukraine's Full Natural UF6 Needs through 2035

SE NNEGC Energoatom (Energoatom), Ukraine's state-owned nuclear energy utility, and Cameco Corporation (Cameco) (TSX: CCO; NYSE: CCJ), one of the largest global producers of uranium fuel based in Canada, have reached agreement on commercial terms for a major supply contract for Cameco to provide sufficient volumes of natural uranium hexafluoride, or UF 6 (consisting of uranium and conversion services), to meet Ukraine's full nuclear fuel needs through 2035. Key commercial terms, such as pricing mechanism, volume and tenor, have been agreed to, but the contract is subject to finalization, which is anticipated in the first quarter of 2023.

"Energoatom will keep working on achieving the energy independence of Ukraine. The development of cooperation between companies in the production and supply of nuclear materials and nuclear fuel is one of the most important conditions for the further safe functioning of our domestic nuclear power generation," said Petro Kotin, President of Energoatom.

Baselode Intersects Best Drill Hole To Date, 25 Metres From Surface

  • AK22-051 intersected 2,320 cps over 30.1 m starting at 27.0 m drill hole depth, ranks as the best drill hole on the project, and includes six separate intervals of >10,000 cps*
  • AK22-047 intersected 5,229 cps over 7.35 m at 140.65 m , ranks as second-best drill hole on the project, and includes eight separate intervals of >10,000 cps

Baselode Energy Corp. (TSXV: FIND) (OTCQB: BSENF) (" Baselode " or the " Company ") is pleased to provide an update on the ongoing 20,000 metre diamond drilling program (the " Program ") on the ACKIO high-grade uranium discovery (" ACKIO "), Hook project (" Hook "), Athabasca Basin area (the " Basin "), northern Saskatchewan ( see Figure 1 and Table 1 ).

"We continue to hit mineralization at the overburden contact; within 25 m from surface. The mineralization from AK22-051 is the shallowest being drilled in the Basin. This rarity of near-surface mineralization with high levels of radioactivity sets Baselode apart from our peers as there's no other recent discovery this close to surface. Near-surface mineralization has been a key characteristic required for numerous Basin deposits going into production as open pit mines. Holes AK22-051 and AK22-047 are substantially the two best drill holes on ACKIO to date in terms of continuously elevated radioactivity. They also have the highest average levels of radioactivity, and each includes multiple discrete intersections with greater than 10,000 cps. We're excited to see ACKIO grow with near-surface mineralization, including consistently higher levels of radioactivity. AK22-051 remains open in all directions and AK22-047 remains open to the east," said James Sykes , CEO, President and Director of Baselode.

NexGen Announces Best Hole to Date and High-Grade Expansion at Patterson Corridor East Concluding a Successful 2024 Drilling Program

  • NexGen's 2024 exploration campaign delivered a new discovery on Rook I at Patterson Corridor East ("PCE") 3.5km east of Arrow.
  • Subsequent drilling has materially expanded the mineralized zone to 600 m strike length and 600 m vertical extent with 19 of 30 holes intersecting mineralization including 10 holes with multiple intervals >10,000 cps.
  • Today's announcement highlights the best hole to date at PCE (RK-24-222) returns 17.0 m wide vein with multiple high intensity (>61,000 cps) occurrences.
  • In 2024, PCE is the largest drill program in the Athabasca Basin by any Company at 34,000 meters (m).

NexGen Energy Ltd. ("NexGen" or the "Company") (TSX: NXE) (NYSE: NXE) (ASX: NXG) is proud to announce the completion of its 2024 drilling campaign at Patterson Corridor East (PCE) that included more than 34,000 m across a total of 46 drillholes. Upon initial discovery of intense uranium mineralization at PCE ( see March 11 News Release ), the Company directed all drilling activity to focus exclusively on PCE, whereby 19 of 30 holes intersected mineralization. Bold and systematic spacing of drillhole intercepts have quickly grown the discovery from a single hole to a broad and continuous new uranium discovery. Real-time evaluation of results throughout the duration of the program focused on determining the overall outer extents of the mineralized zone and in parallel, precisely targeting high-grade sub-domains (Figures 1 and 2, Table 1).
