Look up an LCA or fermi estimate it yourself. It's roughly on par with solar (4mo-2yr depending on just how unreliable it is). The biggest part they don't usually include is a couple thousand people driving to and from and working for 20 years, but even that is tiny. The mines (especially in a mass expansion scenario) are a little worse. Each fuel load takes up to a few months to pay off from a low yield open pit mine. The industry always uses Ranger or Cigar Lake for comparison which are anomalously high yield.
