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.

An ICRF antenna for 6 MW RF power coupling to plasmas has been developed. For long pulse (300 s) and high power operation, the antenna has many cooling channels inside the current strap, Faraday shield, cavity wall and vacuum transmission line to remove the dissipated RF power and incoming plasma heat loads. The RF power test has been performed to ascertain the voltage and current limits of the antenna at the frequency of 30 MHz. During the RF pulse, the peak voltage, forward/reflected powers, temperature on the cavity wall, and gas pressure are measured. Results show the peak voltage of 33.2 kVp for 60 s and 25.2 kVp for 300 s (without cooling).
