</FONT>

<P><FONT size="2">Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, March&nbsp;10, 2003 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
</FONT>
<P><FONT size="2"><B>Cameco Corporation </B>announced today that it no longer plans to join Louisiana
Energy Services LP (LES), the limited partnership that intends to build an
enrichment facility in the US using Urenco Limited advanced gaseous centrifuge
technology. Urenco is a leading European supplier of uranium enrichment
services, one of the interim steps in producing fuel for nuclear power
stations.
</FONT>
<P><FONT size="2">Cameco signed a memorandum of agreement in July 2002 as an initial step toward
entering a formal partnership. Even though Cameco supports the project as a
very important initiative for the nuclear industry with many positive aspects,
the company has concluded that involvement in the project does not meet its
requirements.
</FONT>
<P><FONT size="2">&#147;Cameco has maintained a good working relationship with the quality partners in
the consortium and we would welcome the opportunity to cooperate with them on
future business opportunities,&#148; said Jerry Grandey, Cameco&#146;s president and
chief executive officer. He added, &#147;Cameco remains committed to our strategy of
pursuing growth opportunities in the nuclear energy business.&#148;
</FONT>
<P><FONT size="2">Cameco, with its head office in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, is the world&#146;s largest
uranium supplier. The company&#146;s uranium products are used to generate
electricity in nuclear energy plants around the world, providing one of the
cleanest sources of energy available today. Cameco&#146;s shares trade on the
Toronto and New York stock exchanges.
