When there is no public data on the element in its pure form, price of a compound is used, per mass of element contained. This implicitly puts the value of compounds' other constituents, and the cost of extraction of the element, at zero. For elements whose radiological properties are important, individual isotopes and isomers are listed. The ...
Until 1985 the Western uranium industry was producing material much faster than nuclear power plants and military programs were consuming it. The spot price for uranium fell, [7]: 195 leaving the price below $10 per pound for yellowcake by year-end 1989. [10] With the price of uranium low, investment in uranium mining decreased.
The price of uranium has risen since 2001, so enrichment tailings containing more than 0.35% uranium-235 are being considered for re-enrichment, driving the price of depleted uranium hexafluoride above $130 per kilogram in July 2007 from $5 in 2001. [124] The gas centrifuge process, where gaseous uranium hexafluoride (UF
Uranium prices are in for 2012, and costs continue to head higher. The magic molecule's price tag is up over 400% in the past decade and could continue to cut into your dividend stocks' profits in ...
World uranium reserves in 2010. Uranium reserves are reserves of recoverable uranium, regardless of isotope, based on a set market price. The list given here is based on Uranium 2020: Resources, Production and Demand, a joint report by the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency and the International Atomic Energy Agency. [1] Figures are given in metric ...

The average spot price of uranium oxide (U 3 O 8) increased from $7.92 per pound in 2001 to $39.48 per pound ($87.04/kg) in 2006. [7] In 2011 the United States mined 9% of the uranium consumed by its nuclear power plants. [8] The remainder was imported, principally from Russia and Kazakhstan (38%), Canada, and Australia.
