On December 23, 2010, while en route from the Port of Vancouver, Canada, to Zhanjiang, China, the ship ran into rough weather between Hawaii and Midway Islands, causing some containers of uranium concentrate to open. On January 3, when Cameco became aware of the spill, it ordered the ship to return to Canada; the ship docked off Ladysmith, where the spill was inspected by Cameco, Transport Canada, and Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission. On January 20, the ship docked back in Vancouver to refuel and restock supplies.{{cite web |archive-url =https://web.archive.org/web/20110118071510/http://www.cameco.com/media/news_releases/2011/?id=543 |archive-date =January 18, 2011 |url-status =dead
