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.

Physical and chemical properties of tritium (T) and its oxides (T2O, DTO, HTO) were experimentally researched; hence, the following was identified: T to T2O conversion mechanisms due to radiation oxidation and isotope exchange in the T concentration range from 10E-8 to 600 Ci/1 in gaseous media of technological equipment (air, argon, hydrogen and their mixtures); diffusion, solubility, sorption and desorption constants of T and T2O in interaction process with structural materials of technological equipment (metals, polymers); properties of T oxidation catalysts (Pt, Pd, Ni, CuO, PdO) for various gas mixtures; properties of moisture adsorbents: synthetic molecular sieve, alumogel and silica gel at different T2O specific activity; mechanisms of waste formation: gaseous, liquid, solid - when T is operated on. Based on the accomplished research the following was developed: technical requirements to technological equipment and equipment units: boxes, containers, receivers, appliances; methods and devices to extract T and T2O from gases: absorbing elements, filters, gas cleaners; facilities for safe T storage in T2O adsorbed on sieve NaA with helium-3 extraction; technologies and devices to extract T and T2O from solid wastes as well as for liquid waste solidification. The developments implemented in the T items production have reduced personnel exposure doses by∼ 50 times and T-releases to the environment by∼200 times.
