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.

A numerical simulation of decelerating, scattering, and trapping fast electrons by plasma in a magnetic trap is reported. Fast non-thermal electrons are generated via the interaction of the relativistic electron beam with the plasma. Their energy significantly exceeds the thermal energy of plasma particles. For real experimental conditions where the mean free path of electrons is larger than the length of a local magnetic pit, the kinetic equation for distribution function of electrons is numerically solved. The effect of electron scattering and trapping into the pit is calculated.
