NRC Commissioner Caputo in Canada

NRCgov posted a photo:

NRC Commissioner Annie Caputo visiting sites important to Canada’s nuclear industry, including a trip to the McArthur River Mine. Located in northern Saskatchewan, it is one of the world’s largest high-grade uranium mines. The uranium from this mine is processed at the Key Lake Mill – which she also visited -- with the fuel supporting Canada’s nuclear power sector, which includes the Darlington Nuclear Generating Station – another stop on the itinerary. In this photo, they’re 2,000 feet underground in the McArthur River mine, in front of Cameco’s uranium mining equipment!
