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, ion cyclotron range of frequency (ICRF) waves are effectively used for the plasma production and heating. Alfvén ion cyclotron (AIC) modes are spontaneously excited due to the strong heating. Stability boundary for the AIC modes is analyzed by introducing the effective mirror ratio. It is shown that the AIC modes become more unstable with smaller mirror ratio. The pitch angle scattering of the high energy ions due to the AIC mode are clearly observed.
