[1] Distribution divides total quantity of uranium delivered (with a price) into eight distributions by price (sorted from lowest to highest) and provides the quantity-weighted average price for each distribution. Notes: Totals may not equal sum of components because of independent rounding. Weighted-average prices are in nominal U.S. dollars.
