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 complete description of a system in equilibrium is provided by the Grand Canonical Distribution. But, systems are generally not in statistical equilibrium. We shall consider the case of an ideal gaz of charged particles. The linear theory of transport determines the 3 × 1 matrix of dissipative fluxes [circumflex]Jr namely, the electric current and the electronic and ionic heat fluxes, in terms of a 3 × 1 matrix of thermodynamic forces [circumflex]X defined by the electric field and the gradient of the densities and temperatures. The components of the 3 × 3 matrix of tensors [circumflex]Lrs of the linear flux-force relations [circumflex]Jr = [summation]s=19[circumflex]Lrs[circumflex]X define the set of transport coefficients. They are evaluated for an ion-electron magnetized plasma in the framework of the statistical mechanics of charged particles starting from the Landau kinetic equation.
