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.

Modular Heliotron concepts with well-defined and efficient closed helical divertor are studied. The physics optimization of this system has been carried out based on the LHD (Large Helical Device) concept by means of vacuum magnetic surface analyses and finite-beta calculations. The effectiveness of this new modular coil system and its magnetic configuration are clarified. Engineering design of this Modular Heliotron Reactor (MHR) is also carried out based on this physics concept and engineering scalings, and the required machine parameters for DT ignition reactors are clarified.
