south by a restricted access haulage road. According to Google Maps, this road is Saskatchewan Highway 914, however the official 2011 highway map of Saskatchewan indicates that 914 terminates at a checkpoint at Key Lake mine, while the road that continues to McArthur is not a public highway (owned by Cameco) and does not appear on maps. Scale Given that much of the uranium recovered here goes to fuel CANDU reactors which can forego uranium enrichment, it is possible to calculate a heating value for the uranium mined at this mine. At a typical burnup of 200 MWhthermal per kilo of heavy metal The yearly production of roughly is equivalent to roughly of uranium metal and per the above burnup value some (or the equivalent of ) of thermal energy can be produced from this much uranium in CANDU type reactors. For comparison, the North Antelope Rochelle Mine, the largest coal mine in the world, produces some of coal per year at a heating value of for an overall heat content of roughly .
