<P align="center" style="font-size: 12pt"><B>Cameco Provides Update On Port Hope Strike</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, September&nbsp;3, 2004 . . . . . . . . . .

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">While there have been no material developments, Cameco is providing an update
to investors as the labour disruption continues at its Port Hope conversion
facility.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">About 200 hourly Port Hope workers represented by the United Steelworkers of
America voted against a new three-year contract and began strike action at
midnight Wednesday, July&nbsp;28, 2004. Subsequently, a protocol was established to
allow non-union employees and product shipments to cross the picket line in a
timely manner. Cameco has obtained a court injunction to enforce the protocol.
No common ground has yet been identified to resolve the strike.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The conversion facility is currently about 1,000 tonnes behind its 2004
production target of 12,500 tonnes uranium.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The company continues to meet all of its sales obligations. A shipment of UF<SUB>6</SUB>
has been delayed, but will have no financial impact on the company. Cameco
agreed to fill UF<SUB>6</SUB> into Russian-owned cylinders and ship them to an enrichment
facility, which would return them to Russia. This request arose after another
UF<SUB>6</SUB> conversion facility was unable to fill these cylinders.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The company will continue to monitor the potential impact from a prolonged work
disruption and update the market if there are material developments.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Cameco, with its head office in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, is the world&#146;s largest
uranium producer. 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.
