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.

Doppler Broadening methods have been intensively used in measuring the temperature of neutral atoms and ions in plasma diagnostics. However, since only the line-integrated emission can be measured in the experiments, the local temperature can not be found directly. To solve this problem, we first measured the spatial distribution of each spectrum by Abel inversion and then obtained the Doppler broadening at each radial position by analytically combining the spectra. The emissions are collected through five optical fibers which are located at intervals of 48 mm and inserted into the slit of a spectrometer. The dispersed output from the spectrometer is measured with a CCD camera. Since the abscissa of a CCD frame represents the spectra and the ordinate represents the spatial distribution, the Abel-inverted Doppler broadening is easily measured. By using this method, we measured the temperature distribution of neutral atoms and ions in the Hanbit device.
