DaVinci Quest This social enterprise (for profit business that does good) is currently being launched in collaboration with Tom Frey of the DaVinci Institute. The mission of this company is to solve the Top 10 World Problems through the conduct of a series of innovation prize contests. DaVinci Quest produces activities that meet individual, corporate and community social responsiblity goals and objectives. For more information on participation in this effort, see DaVinci Quest . Business activities will include identification of world problems, development of competitions, recruitment of sponsors, operation of competitions and recruitment and support of teams to participate in competitions as part of local economic development programs. Formation activities in which I am engaged include market analysis, strategic planning, business planning, development of competition prototypes and creation of business brand and communication materials. Applied Molecular Management Opportunities (AMMO) This business will exploit the technology of JTW through a non-exclusive Joint Development Partnership that authorizes the use of a new device in extraction and separation of precious metals and rare earths from ore deposits and mine tailings. The technology is totally ‘green’ without requirement of the use of water or chemicals and only a minimum use of energy. It may be used in both new and abandoned mines. Upon completion of development, the technology will enable the near perfect extraction (99%) of individual elements from ore deposits and mine tailings. The net benefit of the technology is to increase yields over other types of ore processing while accelerating processing and reducing costs. Actual yields from processing with the technology typically exceed amounts stated in assays, demonstrating an ability to separate targeted elements bonded with other materials so closely as to mask their presence. The technology is of particular benefit to owners of mineral deposits who are blocked by environmental regulations from mining and/or who are unable to extract gold from ore through available processing technologies because the minerals are bonded to materials that do not respond to the processing.
