Cameco Confirms Discussions Regarding Kumtor Gold Project

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, March 26, 2007 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Cameco Corporation confirmed today that it and Centerra Gold Inc. have been in negotiations with representatives of the Kyrgyz government for several weeks. These negotiations are to address concerns of the government with respect to prior agreements, as well as to further stabilize the operational environment for the Kumtor project going forward. We expect that Cameco and Centerra will continue the dialogue with the Kyrgyz government in an attempt to find a mutually acceptable resolution.

Cameco owns 53% of Centerra Gold Inc. which owns and operates the Kumtor mine located in the Kyrgyz Republic, Central Asia.

Today, the Kyrgyz parliament voted to accept a draft bill for further deliberation with respect to Kumtor and other mineral deposits. The draft bill challenges the legal validity of the Kumtor agreements, proposes recovery of additional taxes and other amounts relating to past activities, as well as consolidating all gold deposits, including Kumtor in one state-owned mining company. We expect the draft bill to be the subject of extensive discussion and parliamentary procedure before being considered. Cameco and Centerra understand the parliamentary action is meant to apply additional pressure in the negotiation process.

The Kumtor restructuring in 2004 was approved by government decrees and was supported by legal opinions from the Kyrgyz Ministry of Justice. In addition, the Kyrgyz government was represented by independent legal counsel and financial advisors for the Kumtor restructuring. The International Finance Corporation and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development also participated in the restructuring transactions.

If the issues between Cameco and the Kyrgyz Republic are not resolved to their mutual satisfaction, the risks to Cameco’s investment in Centerra may increase significantly. We are uncertain if an agreement can be reached to resolve the issues with the Kyrgyz government.

Cameco, with its head office in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, is the world’s largest uranium producer. The company’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’s shares trade on the Toronto and New York stock exchanges.
