<P align="center" style="font-size: 14pt"><B>Port Hope Workers Reject Contract Offer</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, July&nbsp;28, 2004&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.&nbsp;&nbsp;.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Cameco Corporation </B>advises that about 200 hourly employees at its Port Hope
conversion facility have rejected the latest contract settlement offer from the
company. On Wednesday, July&nbsp;28, these workers represented by the United
Steelworkers of America voted 69% against a new three-year contract. The union
advised that workers will commence strike action at midnight, Wednesday,
July&nbsp;28.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&#147;The safety of people and the environment is our first priority in dealing with
the strike,&#148; said Jerry Grandey, Cameco&#146;s president and chief executive
officer.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The plant, closed since mid June for summer maintenance and employee vacations,
reopened on Monday, July&nbsp;26, but no production systems have begun the restart
process. Until the issue has been resolved, the shutdown state will be
maintained and any additional steps necessary will be taken to ensure the
safety of people and the protection of the environment.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The company did not plan to begin UF<SUB>6</SUB> production until mid August and UO<SUB>2</SUB>
production until mid September. It is too early to know if annual production
targets will be affected. Cameco has inventory strategically positioned to
mitigate the effect of a production shortfall.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&#147;We are disappointed the offer has been rejected,&#148; said Grandey. &#147;It is a
competitive proposal compared to agreements ratified by others in recent weeks
locally and nationally. Historically, we have had a good relationship with the
Port Hope employees. We are surprised that the employees rejected the offer.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The last strike at Port Hope took place in the early 1980s when the facility
was owned by Eldorado Nuclear Limited.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">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.
