Initially, the [Port Hope] plant processed high-grade uranium ores to recover radium. A by-product of the refining process was uranium oxide, and, with increasing interest in nuclear energy, the emphasis switched to uranium production. By 1942, uranium extraction from ores had become the primary process and radium refining ceased in 1953. The radium circuit was dismantled in 1955, and replaced by a uranium refining circuit, which processed uranium concentrates (yellowcake) rather than uranium ores. ... a production facility was added to convert refined uranium oxide to uranium hexafluoride for export.
