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.

In the GAMMA10 tandem mirror, the first pellet injection experiments in open systems have started.1 The tandem mirror machine is suitable for measuring propagation of pellet-fueled particles along the magnetic field lines. We observed a very low frequency oscillation in various diagnostic signals from the plasmas with a pellet injection. The frequency of the oscillation is a few hundred Hz. It is found that the phase of those signals changes to anti-phase at a certain place. The oscillation continued during plug-ECH for the formation of confining potential and its amplitude decays within a several ms after the end of ECH pulse. Measurements at several locations along the field lines indicates that this oscillation is a standing wave along field lines of plasma density perturbation due to the pellet injection. The wavelength of the oscillation is estimated to be about 6m. The oscillation has mode number n = 3.
