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.

The nature and performance of our patented catalysts, with platinum on carbon and polytetrafluorethylene [ Pt/C/PTFE ] and platinum on styrenedivynilbenzene and polystyrene [Pt/STB/PS], used in a water - hydrogen isotope exchange process are presented. The behaviour of the two catalysts in tritiated water was tested by determining their physical and structural characteristics as well as the catalytic activity before and after immersion in tritiated water. The test results emphasized that the two catalysts are highly active in the hydrogen - water vapor ( H2(g)- H2O(v) ) isotopic exchange and highly stable to tritium radiation. It was discovered that Pt/SDB/PS catalyst proved to be quite unstable in the hydrogen- water vapor - water (H2(g)-H2O(v)-H2O(1)) isotopic exchange, while the Pt/C/PTFE catalyst was highly stable. Thus, the Pt/C/PTFE catalyst was chosen for hydrogen isotope separation by liquid hydrogen cryogenic distillation combined with water -hydrogen isotopic exchange in a demonstration scale plant.
