Cameco Ship Cleared to Sail Again

The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission has given the all-clear to a cargo ship belonging to Cameco that suffered a recent accident.

In December of last year the Altona encountered severe weather conditions en route to China.

Some containers containing uranium were knocked open during the storm and the ship had to be cleaned up.

All of the containers have since been moved back to the Key Lake mill, and the ship is good to go.
