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.

We describe a high pressure cryogenic fill station and a novel method to retrieve and transport filled inertial confinement fusion targets at cryogenic temperatures. The fill station (currently under construction) will be capable of filling millimeter-size plastic spheres with DT or D2 to pressures exceeding 150 MPa. After filling, the thin-walled targets are cooled and kept below 20 K to prevent them from bursting. After cooling the targets, a cryogenic wrench is used to open the pressurization cell. The fill station cryostat is designed to allow a second cryostat to retrieve the filled targets. This second cold transfer cryostat features removable shrouds with seals that can be repeatably made and broken at cryogenic temperatures.
