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.

As a part of design study of candidate DEMO blanket in Japan, evaluations of tritium permeation in solid breeder blankets cooled by supercritical water was performed. The evaluations were performed under detail design of the blankets with nuclear and thermal analyses. F82H was selected as the structural material and the temperature of cooling tubes in the tritium breeder zone was evaluated between 673K and 783K. In this temperature range, tritium permeation rate through the cooling tubes in tritium breeder zone was evaluated and also tritium permeation into the first wall cooling water by the implantation of tritium particle was evaluated. In addition, requirements for preventing tritium permeation into the cooling water have been examined.
