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 behavior of ions confined by means of quadrupolar electrodynamic containment around palladium lattice tetrahedral sites is discussed. Ion confinement in a quadrupolar trap is known to be strongly influenced by initial conditions and trap parameters. The system studied is a lattice ion trap for deuterons, supposing they occupy the tetrahedral sites over a certain concentration. The electron motions seem to have a dominant role in the dynamics of two deuterons moving around such lattice sites. A computer simulation describes the deuteron dynamics and reveals an approach mechanism that could dramatically decrease the mean distance between two positive charges embedded in a lattice.
