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 simple “first principles” model has been developed to establish the level of activation product transport through ITER confinement barriers in both wet (steam) and dry (air) accident scenarios. The model accounts for steam condensation (wet scenarios only), aerosol agglomeration, gravitational settling, and leakage. Parametric studies have been performed for a range of aerosol particle sizes and mass densities expected by activation product mobilization. Recommended aerosol confinement release fractions for both wet and dry scenarios have been developed.
