Uranium prices steady as EIA releases annual market report
The end-of-July spot price for uranium was $86.36 per pound, as reported by Cameco—roughly the same as it has been since February. Analytics firm Trading Economics reported a uranium futures price of $86.60 per pound, a figure that also has been holding steady since early April.
These updates come as the U.S. Energy Information Administration has released its 2025 Uranium Marketing Annual Report, which examines in detail multiple aspects of the U.S. uranium market. Data are derived from answers given in the Uranium Marketing Annual Survey, which collects information on contracts, deliveries (during the past year and projected for the next 10 years), purchased enrichment services, inventories, fuel assembly usage, and market requirements.

Fraction of a neutral beam particle with the different energy has been investigated in the Large Helical Device. We adopt a low-energy (40keV-3MW) neutral beam injection system in order to improve the ion temperature. A visible-spectrometer coupled intensified charge coupled device detector has been installed in order to measure a hydrogen beam emission spectrum inside of a target plasma. The spectral resolution and the reciprocal dispersion are 0.21nm and 1.4nm/mm, respectively. We typically use the 40ms sampling times with the 20ms exposure times. We have clearly observed the beam emission spectra from a hydrogen neutral beam with the energy of full, half and 1/3. We have also estimated the fraction of the full-energy beam component from the beam emission intensity. Total injection beam power is improved by increasing of the fraction of the full-energy beam component.
