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.

Low-divergent, quasi-stationary neutral beams are often applied in modern magnetic fusion devices as a diagnostic tool providing unique information about plasma parameters. The most important requirements to these beams are sufficiently large current and energy of the particles, so that the beam could penetrate to plasma core. At the same time, duration of the beams should be long enough, close to that of a plasma shot, amounting to, at least, a few seconds for large machines. We developed neutral beam injector which is capable to meet above mentioned requirements. Plasma emitter in the injector is provided alternatively radio frequency or arc discharge in hydrogen (deuterium).
