Qualified comments: (Applies to: discovery and development) Exploration on the Cree-Zimmer property, which surrounds the Gaertner and Deilmann mines at Key Lake, undertaken by Cameco and Uranerz Exploration and Mining Limited, led to the discovery in 1997. Two drill holes (P-14 and P-15) on the north-trending P conductor, 3.6 km east of the Dielmann pit, located the deposit about 120 m below the surface.
