Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada, May 26, 2010
Cameco Corporation (TSX: CCO; NYSE: CCJ) has announced the re-election of 12 board members at its annual meeting today.
Shareholders re-elected board members John Clappison, Joe Colvin, James Curtiss, Donald Deranger, James Gowans, Gerald Grandey, Nancy Hopkins, Oyvind Hushovd, George Ivany, Anne McLellan, Neil McMillan and Victor Zaleschuk.
The meeting also marked the retirement of two long-time board members, Senator Robert Peterson and Mr. George Dembroski.

Mr. Dembroski, a chartered accountant, has been a board member since 1996. He is a former vice-chairman and director of RBC Dominion Securities Ltd.
“Over the years, Senator Peterson has provided Cameco with valuable insight on stakeholder relations in Saskatchewan and Canada,” said board chairman Victor Zaleschuk. “Mr. Dembroski, during his tenure, was a strong voice for shareholder value and provided the board sound advice on public equity markets.”
Cameco, with its head office in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, is one of the world’s largest uranium producers.
