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 self-consistent global discharge simulation code, which combines a global transport module and a radiofrequency (RF) wave heating module in a self-consistent manner, has been developed for the Hanbit-device discharge modeling. Global fluid equations of ions and electrons are solved with oxygen impurity recycling equations in the global transport module, while Maxwell-Boltzmann equations are solved by the mode analysis technique in the RF heating module. Using the code, the global transport dynamics of ions, electrons, neutrals, and oxygen impurities can be studied as a function of external parameters, in the self-consistent calculation of the RF power deposition into the plasma from a model antenna system. Here, a simulation study is presented for the reference operation mode of the Hanbit mirror device to predict its performance.
