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.

Chromatographic separation of hydrogen isotopes, protium and deuterium, was carried out experimentally using a four-column Pd bed system. The system was operated under the conditions of atmospheric hydrogen pressure and swing of column temperature of 303 K to 473 K. Maximum deuterium enrichment ratio defined as the ratio of the deuterium concentration in product to that in feed was around 100 independent of the deuterium concentration. The deuterium recovery ratio was more than 0.5. Effluent curves were analyzed by the numerical simulation by the plate model. Close agreement was obtained between experiment and analysis. High enrichment of deuterium was also successfully achieved by frontal chromatography using a comparatively large column.
