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.

To safely carry out its experimental program, the Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) at the University of Rochester has commissioned the design, fabrication, and installation of a Tritium Removal System to clean up the various exhaust streams and to control tritium activity in the glove-boxes. This system, which is described in this paper, is optimized for minimum environmental impact and maximum personnel safety. It uses the best available technologies to extract tritium from inert gas streams in the elemental form. The various technologies considered and the rationale for their selection are discussed in detail. This approach reduces the volumes of effluent that require treatment to the extent practical and also avoids the need to oxidize HT to HTO with its higher radiotoxicity, thereby contributing to safety.
