What is the feul for nuclear power plants and where does it come from?
Either yellow uranium oxide (yellowcake) or metallic uranium in most reactors. In moderated thermal neutron reactors the uranium is usually enriched to 3% to 5% uranium-235 isotope, in unmoderated fast neutron reactors the uranium is enriched to 20% to 95% uranium-235 isotope. This uranium comes from mines (similar to coal or iron ore mines). What is mined is usually black uranium oxide ore. This ore is processed to make unenriched yellowcake (0.7% uranium-235) and shipped to the enrichment plant. Most enrichment plants process the yellowcake to make uranium hexafloride then run that through their system, producing both enriched uranium (product) and depleted uranium (waste). The enriched uranium hexafloride is then processed back to yellowcake and shipped to a finishing plant that uses it to make the required fuel assemblies.

What does the Cameco company do?
Cameco, an acronym for Canadian Mining and Energy Corporation, is a major uranium producer, accounting for 16% of the world's uranium supply produced in 2011.
How does scientists create nuclear fuels?
Uranium ore (usually black oxide) is mined.Uranium ore is shipped to Mill.Mill separates Uranium from ore and converts black oxide to yellow oxide (yellowcake).Yellowcake is shipped to Enrichment plant.Preprocessing plant converts yellowcake to Uranium Hexafluoride (the only Uranium compound that is a gas near room temperature, but also corrosive to almost every metal except nickel and explosive in contact with either water or oil!!!)Enrichment plant enriches the Uranium in the Uranium Hexafluoride gas from 0.72% Uranium-235 (natural level) to 3% Uranium-235 (power reactor fuel level)Postprocessing plant converts enriched Uranium Hexafluoride to enriched yellowcake.Yellowcake is shipped to fuel pellet Canning plant.Canning plant cans yellowcake in Zirconium alloy fuel pellet cans.Fuel pellets are shipped to fuel rod Assembly plant.Assembly plant inserts fuel pellets into steel fuel rod tubes.Fuel rods are shipped to Reactor.Fuel rods are inserted in Reactor as needed.This is the basic outline from mine to a water moderated & cooled reactor. There are many additional minor steps along the way. For other reactor designs (e.g. metal cooled fast breeder reactor, gas cooled high temperature graphite moderated pebble bed reactor, liquid metal fueled reactor) several of the basic steps themselves will have to change.
Where is uranium found in Ontario?
Uranium is primarily found in the Canadian Shield region of Ontario, particularly in the northern parts of the province. There are several known uranium deposits and mines in areas such as Elliot Lake and Bancroft. Prospecting and exploration activities continue to identify new uranium occurrences in different parts of Ontario.
What is uranium used for in Saskatchewan?
Uranium in Saskatchewan is primarily mined for nuclear power generation. The province is one of the world’s top producers of high-grade uranium, with most of the uranium being exported to other countries for use in nuclear reactors to generate electricity. The mining industry in Saskatchewan plays a significant role in providing uranium for clean energy production globally.
Where did the Canadians see their first action?
