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 paper reports on the results of neutral beam heated high-β two-component plasma confinement studies in Gas-Dynamic Trap experiment1,2. The diagnostic set enabled us to characterize the different energy losses channels in the GDT3. The energy balance models were applied for analysis of plasma heating4. The experimental results on the measurements of the local energy and angular distributions of the fast ions minority are described. These measurements were done by injection of focused diagnostic neutral beam served to produce local charge-exchange target for fast ions5. Charge-exchange atoms were registered by an electrostatic energy analyzer. The energy distribution function obtained with this diagnostic was compared in detail with the results of Monte-Carlo6 and Fokker-Planck simulations7.
