Denison Mines Denies Claims Made By Saskatchewan First Nation – the deep dive

November 4, 2025

Denison Mines (TSX: DML) this morning officially acknowledged an application for judicial review filed by the Peter Ballantyne Cree Nation against both the company and the Government of Saskatchewan this morning.

The application, which was filed with Court of King’s Bench for Saskatchewan, is seeking for the courts to set aside the provincial approval granted to Denison’s Wheeler River uranium project. The group is seeking that the environmental approval for the project be return to the Saskatchewan Minister of the Environmental for reconsideration, while claiming that the government failed to sufficiently consult with the Peter Ballantyne Cree Nation on the project.

This application comes despite the First Nation group being provided the opportunity to review the draft Environmental Impact Statement for the project as far back as November 2022, and the Nation being directly engaged with Denison since March 2023, when Denison says it first became aware of the Nation’s interest in the Wheeler River project.
