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.

For a routine cleaning and a primary decontamination of tritiated contaminants in the case of decommissioning, a decontamination robot based on dry method utilizing ozone gas treatment was developed. The robot sized of 720(W)x850(D)x1,050(H) mm with a remote and automatic system consists mainly of 5 different part, a flat decontamination port of about 1,000 cm2 for ozone gas exposure with a heater and surrounding rubber curtain to isolate the inside circumstance, an ozone gas generator utilizing creeping discharge method, a gas cooler for the hot air containing tritiated vapor to be trapped, an adsorption vessel packing molecular-sieves for tritium trap, and a circulation pump. The amount of suction air is larger than that of the exposure air, therefore, non of the contaminants are scattered out from the adsorption port, and this is one of the main characteristic of the robot.
