Long-Term Uranium Price Climbs in July on Increased Market Activity

Utility demand emerged during July, which led to several transactions and an increase in TradeTech’s Long-Term Uranium Price Indicator to US$82.00 on July 31.

ENGLEWDOOD, CO, UNITED STATES, August 4, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Activity in the long-term uranium market increased during July with utility demand emerging and several transactions reported, which led to an increase in industry consultant TradeTech’s monthly Long-Term Uranium Price Indicator to US$82.00 per pound of uranium oxide (U3O8) on July 31, up $2.00 from the previous month’s Indicator.

“Recent transactions and outstanding offers reflect a wide range of prices depending on a variety of factors, including the status of a supplier as an incumbent or emerging producer, the supplier’s jurisdiction, and the ability to meet a specific buyer’s delivery timing needs, which all factor into the agreed pricing specifics for a particular contract,” said TradeTech President Treva Klingbiel.

While there is upward pressure on base prices, one area where buyers are pushing back is asymmetrical floor and ceiling prices in contracts. Buyers are looking to see the benefit of any future drop in the current price just as sellers are looking to assure that they capture any increases. Another area where sellers are pushing back and unwilling to acquiesce is around which party will bear responsibility for tariffs.

Although most market participants expect uranium imports to be exempted or tariffed at lower levels, the details around the implementation of tariffs on individual countries, and uranium specifically, are less than certain. “The interpretation or application of final tariff language has the potential to result in significant disruptions, at least temporarily, as the market gains an understanding of its treatment under any trade policy agreed with individual US trading partners,” Klingbiel added.

TradeTech’s July 31 Long-Term Uranium Price Indicator of $82.00 per pound U3O8 is reflective of prices in recent transactions, outstanding offers, and off-market discussions between parties.
