Uranium prices rise to highest level in more than two months
Analyst firm Trading Economics posted a uranium futures value of about $82.00 per pound on January 5—the highest futures value in more than two months.
In late October, it had listed a futures price of about $82.30/lb. By late November, the price had fallen to under $76.00/lb.

The total neutron cross section of 232U has been measured from 0.01 to 10 000 eV using the Materials Testing Reactor (MTR) fast chopper. A 2200 m/sec total neutron cross section of 163 ± 10 b was determined. Multilevel parameters are listed for resonances below 30 eV. Results of the analysis indicate that two fission channels are needed to describe the experimental data.
