Grand Canyon mining ban frustrating – Denison

Too early on the stop loss

The head of Denison Mines (DML.TO: Quote) said on Tuesday he is frustrated by the U.S. government’s move to extend a ban on mining on 1 million acres of federal lands near the Grand Canyon, though the impact of the ban on his company remains unclear.

In an interview with Reuters, Chief Executive Ron Hochstein said that while three of its Arizona Strip projects are unaffected, Denison is still looking into whether the six-month extension announced on Monday will have an impact on the development of its EZ Complex uranium deposits in Arizona.
