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.

Basic facts about transport barriers in toroidally confined plasmas are presented. The flow shear of poloidal plasma rotation is a common feature in the spontaneous and induced transport barriers as well and is considered as the basic cause of their formation. Basic ideas on the impact of flow shear on the radial transport are discussed. Different mechanisms for the generation of flow shears are considered and models for the transition to enhanced confinement states are sketched.
