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.

In helical experiment devices, the accuracy of their nonplanar coils affects plasma confinement properties significantly, so coil winding accuracy is one of the crucial issues for their construction. An advanced method for helical coil windings in fusion devices was studied. This new method utilizes a geometrical characteristic of the trajectory of the helical coil, which enables us to improve the accuracy of coils, and is thus expected to improve the mechanical, electromagnetic and superconducting properties of the coils. This paper presents the new concept of the winding method and practically shows the results of the R&D for the Large Helical Device (LHD).
