-
Commitment to responsible resource development, operational excellence, integrity, and a positive legacy

Implementation of a robust framework to guide sustainability strategy going forward and development of clear goals, targets, and next steps
Ross McElroy, President and CEO for Fission, commented, "Sustainable development is the foundation of Fission's approach to our proposed Triple R mine and mill at PLS – from our first exploration drill hole in 2011 through to our current stage of detailed engineering. This inaugural Sustainability Report is an important milestone for our company and formalizes our unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship, traditional land use and rights, operational excellence, community investment, regulatory compliance and integrity."
McElroy continued, "Nuclear energy has entered a generational period of growth as the world's most important source of clean, baseload energy. For that growth to be fully realized, uranium production in safe, stable jurisdictions must increase exponentially. Ideally positioned in Saskatchewan, Canada, we are advancing PLS on schedule to becoming the next high-grade uranium mine in the western Athabasca Basin. As we do so, we will continue to work closely with our rightsholders, stakeholders and community partners to provide clean energy fuel to the world, bringing long lasting economic benefits to northern communities, and leaving a legacy that we can all be proud of."
