NEW YORK, March 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
FinancialBuzz.com News Commentary
Nuclear power plays a major role in generation of electricity around the world. Its importance is expected to grow, as demand
for more clean energy is accelerating and emerging markets such as China and India are in need of stronger electrical infrastructure. A recent report by the World Nuclear Association
indicates that Mainland China has 36 nuclear power reactors in operation, 21 under construction, and more about to start
construction. The planned reactors will include some of the world's most advanced, and are designed to give a doubling of nuclear
capacity to at least 58 GWe by 2020-21, then up to 150 GWe by 2030, and much more by 2050. The high growth of nuclear power in
China is largely due to air pollution from coal-fired plants. Azincourt Uranium, Inc. (OTC:

units will come online by 2021. As a result, the uranium market is once again in the spotlight. Nuclear reactors use enriched
uranium as fuel.
