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.

When a nickel cathode is used during electrolysis, the separation factor γ of D2O/T2O is measured and found to be 2. When a platinum cathode is used, the value of γ is found to also be 2. This value is the same as the value that was measured and reported in an earlier paper that dealt with the use of a palladium cathode. A mathematical model that predicts the tritium concentration in the electrolysis cell finds the predictions to be in agreement with the measured values of tritium concentration in the cell. Excess tritium concentration is observed in the recombined off-gases in the case of the nickel cathode.
