Rabbit lakeCCO's concern with Rabbit Lake is the decommissioning costs, but they can keep it on care and maintenance for 12 years or so, until thier low cost production from NXE and FCU comes on stream.
That new proeject will be so low cost that then they will be able to afford the decommissioning costs of Rabbit Lake.
So this is sort of a positive development for a CCO/Areva/CGN or other takeover of FCU/NXE/Shea Creek.
Another possibility is that there may be another low cost mine and uranium supply over on the east side to start Rabbit Lake up again, perhaps toll mill a Denison or Hathor ore.
