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.

Results of particle simulation indicate that E×B drift is available for the purpose of ion energy selection, which is necessary for direct energy conversion. High energy conversion rate of the traveling wave direct energy converter up to 0.8 is obtained both from orbit calculation and from computer simulation as a result of improvement of proton beam modulation. Computer simulation using a particle-circuit code demonstrates stabilization of the excited wave by the external electric load and stable response of the wave to variation of the load. A very preliminary design of electric circuits of the traveling wave direct energy converter is also presented.
