Peter Ballantyne Cree Nation Drops Legal Challenge to Denison's Uranium Mine Project

Dow Jones07-02 19:35

Peter Ballantyne Cree Nation has abandoned its legal challenge to Denison Mines' Wheeler River, a uranium mining project in Saskatchewan.

Denison said Thursday that PBCN withdrew the judicial review application it previously filed regarding environmental assessment approval from the Province of Saskatchewan for the project's Phoenix in-situ recovery uranium mine.

The application, filed last year, sought an order that would set aside the environmental assessment approval to allow Denison to proceed with the construction of the new uranium mine and processing plant, and remit the decision back to the Saskatchewan Minister of the Environment for reconsideration. PBCN's application argued that the Government of Saskatchewan breached its duty to consult with PBCN over the project.

In addition to the application's withdrawal, PBCN also formally provided its consent to and support for the development and operation of the Wheeler River Project, Denison said.

Wheeler River is a joint venture between Denison, which plans to operate the project, and JCU Exploration Company. It is located in the Athabasca Basin in the northern part of Canada's Saskatchewan province, a key area of focus for recent efforts to build new uranium mines.
