Oil prices bounced back sharply, while gas prices increased
In June 2025, the price in dollars of North Sea crude oil (Brent) bounced back sharply (+11.0% after ‑5.1% in May), averaging $71.4 per barrel, in response to the conflict between Israel and Iran. In euros, this rebound was a little less marked (+8.5% after ‑5.6%), due to the appreciation of the euro against the dollar over the period. In contrast, over the past year, the price per barrel plummeted, in dollars (‑13.1%) as well as in euros (‑18.9%).
The price of natural gas on the European market (TTF) increased month on month (+3.9% after +0.2%), averaging €36.6/MWh; year on year, it increased by 6.3%. Lastly, the price of uranium in euros increased again over one month (+1.7% after +8.3%), but remained sharply down year on year (‑19.7%).

Prices in euros of industrial raw materials declined
In June 2025, prices in euros of industrial raw materials declined (‑1.3% after +0.5% in May) and decreased by 4.9% year on year.
Prices of mineral materials fell back (‑1.4% after +0.8%). Prices of ferrous metals continued to fall (‑6.5% after ‑2.3%), those of non-ferrous metals were virtually stable (‑0.1% after +2.1%) and prices of precious metals continued to increase (+1.7% after +1.7%). Year on year, mineral material prices fell by 4.8%, driven by the sharp decrease in the prices of ferrous (‑18.1%) and non-ferrous metals (‑7.7%). Conversely, prices of precious metals rose strongly over one year (+29.0%).
Prices of agro-industrial raw materials decreased for the fourth consecutive month (‑0.5% after ‑1.7%). Prices for paper pulp continued to decrease (‑2.8% after ‑1.6%), as did those for natural rubber (‑7.5% after ‑0.9%) and natural textile fibres (‑1.9% after ‑0.8%). Those for tropical sawn wood fell back (‑0.7% after +1.0%), while prices for sawn softwood bounced back (+4.4% after ‑2.5%), as well as those for hides (+0.8% after ‑2.1%). Year on year, prices of agro-industrial raw materials fell by 5.1%, notably due to the drop in the prices for paper pulp (‑16.1%), natural rubber (‑13.0%), natural textile fibres (‑9.1%) and hides (‑4.4%). In contrast, prices for sawn softwood increased by 18.0% over one year.

For further information
The relevant time series and a user guide are available at the bottom of this page.
Crude oil: from 1986, the price of Brent gradually established as a representative reference price of European supplies.
Natural gas: TTF (futures contracts in the Netherlands) is considered as the benchmark market in Europe.
Uranium: the price monitored is that of triuranium octaoxide (U3O8) listed on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Energy: prices of energy are monthly averages.
Indices of non-energy raw materials imported by France: the indices calculated by INSEE are monthly averages of raw material prices, weighted by their share in the French imports of raw materials (2010 = 100).
Strategic materials for the industry: the list of strategic materials monitored is a non-exhaustive selection of raw materials with which the French industry is particularly dependent, especially with regard to the energy transition. This selection is based on the work of the French Geological and Mining Research Bureau (BRGM) on critical and strategic materials.
