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.

Force-Free Helical Reactor. FFHR. is a conceptual design of helical fusion power reactor. Flibe is chosen as the coolant/ breeding material in this reactor mainly because of safety considerations. Two types of structural materials, i.e. ferritic steel and vanadium alloys were closely examined. Compatibility of these materials with Flibe is one of the largest issues for the selection of materials. It has been concluded that both systems using Flibe as coolant are feasible provided that the chemistry of Flibe is appropriately controlled.
