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.

ITER is planned to be the first fusion experiment operating under reactor-relevant plasma conditions integrated with key technologies in a regulatory licensed environment. The ITER design, safety analysis and cost estimates are supported by the physics basis, analyses and technology R&D. Full-sized or scalable modules of key components have been successfully manufactured and tested. The scientific and technological bases to start ITER construction are established. Inter-governmental negotiations to prepare the Joint Implementation Agreement for ITER construction and operation are expected to conclude in 2003. ITER operation would then be able to start in 2013.
