This dataset contains the total annual releases of radionuclides released directly to the environment through direct discharge (i.e. releases to water) from uranium mines and mills in Canada.Note that there is no stack emissions for the uranium mines and mills.

Nuclear licensees operate across Canada. This includes uranium mines and mills, uranium processing facilities, nuclear power plants, research reactors, particle accelerators, and nuclear substances processing facilities. All of these facilities are licensed by the CNSC and are subject to strict regulatory oversight to ensure the safety of the public and the environment.

This dataset contains the total annual releases of radionuclides released directly to the environment through stack emissions from uranium and nuclear substance processing facilities in Canada.This original radionuclide releases dataset of the uranium and nuclear substance processing facilities provides results for both stack emissions and direct discharge (i.e. releases to water). The dataset has been divided in two subsets for better discoverability. In this record as its title indicates, you will find the stack emissions results mapped. Make sure to look at the uranium and nuclear substance processing facilities direct discharge record in order to obtain a complete picture.

This dataset shows the location of the distribution of uranium deposits for the Province of Saskatchewan.This dataset shows the uranium deposits for the Province of Saskatchewan and is designed for the Resource Map of Saskatchewan. Mapping in support of the dataset includes years of field observations which were then compiled and integrated into this dataset. The data was created as a file geodatabase feature class and output for public distribution. **Please Note – All published Saskatchewan Geological Survey datasets, including those available through the Saskatchewan Mining and Petroleum GeoAtlas, are sourced from the Enterprise GIS Data Warehouse.  They are therefore identical and share the same refresh schedule.

Terrestrial gamma dose rates, reported as ambient dose equivalent in the unit nSv/hr, are presented for the past ninety days to present. Data is measured in real-time, typically from the spectroscopic dosimeters of the Fixed Point Surveillance (FPS) Network. Dosimeter stations of this network are located in population centres and other strategic locations across Canada. Real-time data provides insight into typical levels and fluctuations of radioactivity in the Canadian environment and may provide early detection of sources of radioactivity other than environmental background.As a reference, the Nuclear facilities and uranium mines and mills can be found in the Open Maps catalogue and added to the Real-time Environmental Radioactivity Monitoring map using the "+" (Add layer) button of the viewer’s “Layers” panel. The ESRI REST or WMS links found in the Nuclear facilities and uranium mines and mills metadata record is what’s needed to proceed.

This dataset represents Lake Water Geochemical Analyses for the province of Saskatchewan.This dataset represents Lake Water Geochemical Analyses for the province of Saskatchewan. During the intense level of activity directed toward the exploration for uranium in the 1970s, the Saskatchewan Geological Survey and the Geological Survey of Canada funded the collection of several thousand samples of sediments and waters from lakes around the Athabasca Sandstone. All sediment samples were analyzed for U, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn, Co, Fe and Mn. Selected samples were analyzed for a wide range of additional elements. All lake waters were analyzed for U, F-, and pH, and several hundred samples were analyzed for additional elements and parameters. The Summary Table that precedes this text shows the numbers of samples and elements, and the source of data from which the 8,939 samples listed in the 9 Tables are derived. Over 20 years ago the data in these listings were coded into the Saskatchewan Geological Survey’s ‘Geochemical Data File’, designed in the 1970s (Dunn, 1978b, 1979), and developed by SaskComp (the computer programming department of the Saskatchewan government at that time). The only database listed in the present report that was not in the Geochemical Data File was GSC Open File #779, jointly produced by the SGS and GSC (Coker and Dunn, 1981, 1983) and containing data from detailed surveys of the IAEA/NEA Athabasca Test Area (adjacent to Wollaston Lake). The old Geochemical Data File was state-of-the-art at the time, and data have been available for public scrutiny since inception in 1977. Demonstrations of the File were given at the SGS Open House meetings in 1977 and 1978. The explosive development of personal computers during the past 20 years has made the original Geochemical Data File something of a dinosaur, and the data have been difficult to access and manipulate. The present data file is a compilation that has resulted from detailed evaluation, streamlining, editing and breakdown of the data into simplified Excel files that can easily be manipulated by anyone with a modest knowledge of computers. These data are of historic value and their re-evaluation could assist in current uranium exploration programs. Of particular value is their use in environmental studies, since they represent a 1970s snapshot of the chemistry of the northern Saskatchewan environment prior to mine developments. At the start of sample collection in 1975 Key Lake had not been drained and the only mine site was the pit at Rabbit Lake. This compilation has divided the data into 9 tables, each presented as a shape file. There are 6 shape files of lake sediment data (1LS - 6LS) and 3 shape files of lake water data (4LW - 6LW). Lake water samples were from the same sites as the lake sediments listed in files 4LS - 6LS, hence they have been given the same numeric designation. The data are mostly compatible among the Tables. However, although analytical methods and quality control protocols were similar, they were sufficiently different to warrant treating the data as separate listings. For any regional plotting of data extracted from all Tables these differences should be considered when interpreting distribution patterns. Of particular relevance is that all sediment samples were analyzed for U by neutron activation, with the exception of 158 samples (Table 2LS) where determinations were by fluorometry. These data sets should be fully compatible, because the two techniques provide similar values. Comparison of U data from sediment samples collected and analyzed over four years, then reanalyzed as one batch has shown excellent precision and accuracy (Coker and Dunn, 1981). All U in water determinations were by fluorometry, and all F- by selective ion electrode. Loss on ignition (LOI) data were determined by ignition at 500o C for 4 hours. Table 1LS This data set comprises samples collected by SGS between 1975 and 1978. Samples were digested in aqua regia and all trace elements, except U (see above), were determined by atomic absorption spectrometry (AA).  **Please Note – All published Saskatchewan Geological Survey datasets, including those available through the Saskatchewan Mining and Petroleum GeoAtlas, are sourced from the Enterprise GIS Data Warehouse.
