Legal case about uranium sale (7)

I believe the answer is:

auction

(Other definitions for auction that I've seen before include "Selling" , "Use caution at public sale" , "Public sale to the highest bidder" , "event with lots involved" , "Where things are sold to the highest bidder" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
