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.

Liquid LiPb blanket system is investigated in the fusion reactor. This study's purpose is the purity control of the oxygen and Hydrogen in LiPb using solid electrolyte sell. This system has the advantages such as capability of continuous monitoring without sampling.In this experiment, the cell made of YSZ solid electrolyte was used for measuring partial oxygen potential in the range from 400 ~ 450 degree C.Measured emf of the cell in LiPb is converted to oxygen activity with Nernst equation. And calculated oxygen activity in LiPb from thermodynamics theory agrees with observed value. The result of experiment shows the feasibility of the solid electrolyte cell.
