Uranium prices reach highest level since February 2024
The end-of-January spot price for uranium was $94.28 per pound, according to uranium fuel provider Cameco. That was the highest spot price posted by the company since the $95.00 per pound it listed at the end of February 2024. Spot prices during 2025 ranged from a low of $64.23 per pound at the end of March to a high of $82.63 per pound at the end of September.

Based on the available experimental data for total cross section, nonelastic cross section, and elastic scattering angular distribution of n + 32,natS, a set of neutron optical potential parameters is obtained. The complete sets of nuclear data for n + 32,34S < 20 MeV are calculated. These sets include cross sections, angular distributions of elastic scattering, energy spectra and/or double-differential cross sections of all emitted particles, and gamma production data (production cross sections and multiplicity, energy spectra) in all kinds of reactions. The calculated results are generally in good accordance with experimental data and are compared with JENDL-3.3.
