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.

Equilibrium isotherms for the adsorption of H2, HD, HT, D2, DT and T2 on synthetic zeolite type 5A or 13X at 77.4 K are estimated by using a theoretical formula, where the isotopic difference in adsorption depends on the zero-point energy difference between hydrogen isotopes. The formula agrees with the experimental isotherms for H2 and D2 on the zeolites. Adsorption of H2-D2 and H2-HD-D2 mixtures on the same adsorbents is experimentally examined. The experiments are performed using a volumetric apparatus and a quadra-pole-type mass spectrograph. The experimental adsorption behavior of H2, D2 and HD shows agreement of separation factors with results calculated according to the ideal adsorbed solution theory describing multi-component behavior, where the equilibrium isotherms estimated for H2, HD and D2 are used. Based on the theoretical adsorption model, the multi-component behavior of HT, DT and T2 is predicted here.
