US Nuclear Corp. Ships Over $493,000 in Advanced Tritium Monitor Equipment Orders for Next Generation Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) in the Second Quarter to a Customer in Shanghai, China

Mr. Goldstein added, "China is leading the way in MSR technology as many firms plan on investing over a hundred billion dollars into nuclear energy projects by 2020. The impetus is driven by China's severe pollution problem, predominantly from coal burning. The economic loss due to pollution in China is estimated by the World Bank at almost 6% of GDP, and chronic, widespread smog leads to health problems and social ills. Our customers in China understand what is at stake; they have taken major steps with investment dollars in developing leading edge Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) that are designed to produce clean, low to zero carbon emissions, high output, efficient energy and have selected our advanced tritium monitor equipment and detectors as part of their overall comprehensive solution."

Separately, the Company announced new orders from three customers totaling over $415,000. "During the second quarter, we received new orders from our nuclear energy customers in Argentina, Canada and in the US. The majority of these orders are for tritium-related equipment such as Tritium Process Monitors, and Portable Tritium in Air Monitors," said Mr. Goldstein.
