</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, December&nbsp;13, 2006 . . . . . . . . . . . . .
</DIV>



<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Cameco Corporation </B>is pleased to announce the appointment of Tim Gitzel to the position of senior
vice-president and chief operating officer, which will take effect during the first quarter of
2007.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Gitzel will report to Jerry Grandey, Cameco&#146;s president and chief executive officer. Terry Rogers,
currently senior vice-president and chief operating officer, had planned to retire at the beginning
of 2007, but has agreed to delay this and remain with Cameco in the short term in order to provide
executive oversight to the remediation work under way at the Cigar Lake uranium project.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Rogers was appointed to his current position in February&nbsp;2003 after serving Cameco as president of
the Kumtor Operating Company in the Kyrgyz Republic. &#147;It&#146;s good to see friends make choices right
for them at the right time. I&#146;m happy for Terry,&#148; Grandey said. &#147;Fortunately for Cameco, Terry&#146;s
retirement date is flexible and he will provide his considerable judgment and skills as we continue
with the remediation of Cigar Lake. Terry has made significant contributions to Cameco while
serving at the head office and abroad. His commitment to safety and environmental protection as
well as community engagement has helped maintain Cameco&#146;s leadership position in uranium fuel
production.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In his new role, Gitzel will assume responsibility for all uranium mining and milling facilities in
Saskatchewan, the United States and Kazakhstan as well as uranium processing and fuel manufacturing
operations in Ontario.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Gitzel brings 12&nbsp;years of senior level, international mining experience, most recently as executive
vice-president, mining business unit, with AREVA, a large French nuclear company. Cameco and AREVA
have a long history of joint venture partnerships including mining operations in Saskatchewan.
Previously Gitzel was president and CEO of their Canadian subsidiary responsible for Saskatchewan
mining operations where he gained significant experience with Canada&#146;s regulatory regime, and in
working with First Nations peoples. He also has worldwide communications, negotiations and media
relations experience, is fluently bilingual and is a registered lawyer in Saskatchewan.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&#147;Cameco has prepared for the resurgence of nuclear power by positioning itself as a leader in the
industry with exceptional assets,&#148; Grandey said. &#147;Tim Gitzel&#146;s international management expertise
will be invaluable as we utilize our assets to capitalize on opportunities and grow our
businesses.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">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.
