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.

Reduction of the loss regions existing in the velocity space plays an important role in improvement of the confinement in the tandem mirror. Particle flow into the loss region affects the axial confinement. The ions being trapped in the magnetic mirror field are scattered from the trapped region into the loss region through the loss boundaries. In order to investigate the fine structure appeared in the loss region, the end-loss energy component analyzer (ELECA) devices have been constructed and located on both sides of the tandem mirror. Three kinds of structures in the loss region were observed in the RF-driven tandem mirror plasma.
