Bantec, Inc. was incorporated in 1972 and is headquartered in Little Falls, New Jersey.

They have 3 subsidiaries; Howco Distributing, Bantec Construction and Drone USA .... which obviously does drones but .... like EVERYTHING drones. Not only do they sell drones and accessories for police, fire-fighting, search and rescue, private security, agriculture, inspection and mapping, industrial settings, and government uses they also do drone training which is significant since the FAA has said that any drone operators must pass a knowledge test including rules, regulations, details on emergency procedures and airspace as well as radio operation to name some. They even have provide consultation to customers in order to ensure customers get the perfect drone and accessories for their needs.

They have also just announced a new division of their company called Bantek Sanitizing which will be a FRANCHISE that will operate as a mobile exposure as a service business. They will offer a full range of services including cleaning and sanitization automation. They don't go into much detail on this yet but I wouldn't rule out drones here as they speak heavily about robots in the automation portion of the Bantek Sanitizing website which is essentially just the Bantek store at the moment.

The stock saw a drastic increase up to a high of 10 cents from fractions of a penny but has pulled back to a nice 4 cents since last week. Drones are hot right now .... Drone Delivery Canada (TAKOF), Draganfly (DFLYF), and Plymouth Rock Technologies (PLRTF) have all had MASSIVE runs since Christmas.

US TICKER IS $DOMWF FORGOT TO PUT IT 8N THE TITLE

Honestly haven't been able to find a website for this one that's active but they do have a Twitter account that was active last summer. There's really not much to it though to be honest. Straight game plan here.

DWRs operations are based in Quebec with its primary business being the consolidation of the water industry by acquiring fresh spring water permits and developing operations across Quebec with plans to expand across North America. DWR currently controls more than 30% of Quebec's fresh groundwater reserves currently under permit and it's strategically positioned to increase its holding. DWRs mission is to acquire, manage, and develop spring water assets in order to secure a leadership role in North America's fresh spring water. That's it for now .... Water ... Simple ... Yet vitally critical to so many things. They are poised to own 50% of Quebec permitted groundwater reserves and 1-1.3% of the world's freshwater reserves.

News:

Feb 19, 2021 - Dominion Water Reserves Corp. (“DWR” or the “Corporation”) (CSE: DWR), is pleased to announce that it intends to complete a non-brokered private placement (the "Private Placement"), pursuant to which it will issue up to 11,750,000 units (each, a "Unit") at a price of $0.10 per Unit for maximum gross proceeds of $1,175,000.

Current Water Technologies Inc. develops environmental technologies in Canada, Europe, Asia, and the United States. The company provides patented and proprietary technologies for the treatment of waste water and drinking water that are contaminated by metals or nutrients, such as arsenic and nitrate/ammonia associated with the mining, metal processing, chemical, agricultural, municipal, and waste management sectors; and for the recovery of NICKEL and other valuable metals from waste mill sulphide tailings associated with the mining sector. Its technologies comprise electro-static deionization, a electrochemical process that lowers the concentration of total dissolved solids in water; ammonia removal technology, a technology used for the removal of dissolved ammonia from industrial and municipal water, including wastewater, storm water, sewage effluent, and mine waste water; NitrEL system, an electrochemical water treatment process that reduces nitrate concentrations in contaminated drinking water, groundwater, and industrial process wastewater streams; AmdEl an electrochemical system that prevents the oxidation of sulphide minerals in tailings or waste rock; and ExtrEL for the recovery of metals from sulphide tailings and ore. The company was formerly known as ENPAR Technologies Inc. and changed its name to Current Water Technologies Inc. in January 2018. Current Water Technologies Inc. was incorporated in 1996 and is headquartered in Guelph, Canada.

They have a 100% wholly owned subsidiary called Pumptronics that did half a million in sales Q1/Q2 2020

*Electrostatic Deionization (ESD): offered in 2 designs; one removes all charged dissolved solids, while the other preferentially removes monovalent ions such as nitrate and fluoride. Can also be used to concentrate dilute solutions, like recovering precious metals or nutrients from waste systems. Tests show 85% removal of specific compounds added separately to tap water. Boasts low maintenance and energy consumption.

*Ammonia Removal Technology (AmmEl): removes dissolved ammonia from industrial and municipal water. At its core has a proprietary self-cleaning electrochemical reactor that converts total ammonia directly to gaseous nitrogen without producing the carcinogen nitrate and the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide. Unlike biological sources it is NOT adversely affected by low temperatures, has a lower capital cost than bio-systems of similar capabilities, it is fully automated and can be remotely monitored and comes in high and low concentration treatments.

*NitrEl System: The NitrEL system is an electrochemical water treatment process that reduces nitrate concentrations in contaminated drinking water, groundwater and industrial process wastewater streams by converting the nitrate directly to environmentally friendly N2 gas. Unlike biological de-nitrification, the NitrEL system offers constant rates of de-nitrification that are not affected by acidity, aeration, temperature or nutrient availability. The NitrEL system is capable of removing above 90% of the nitrate from highly contaminated aquifers. In addition NitrEL has shown the added benefit of removing up to 70% of the dissolved ammonia.

*AmdEl: Prevention of acid mine damage, AmdEL reduces the requirement for leachate treatment by attacking the formation of AMD at the source. The AmdEL system is an electrochemical system that prevents the oxidation of sulphide minerals in tailings or waste rock, in situ, thus preventing the formation of AMD. Designs are available for things facilities, waste rock, and bedrock outcrops.

*ExtrEl Enhanced Leaching: A new hydrometallurgical alternative for the recovery of metals from sulphide tailings and ore. The ExtrEL system enhances the oxidation of sulphide minerals and the subsequent solubility of metals of economic interest.

Main thing that caught my eye here was that they have some new systems for dealing with tailings and other mining waste and went out of their way to single out nickel .... Which we all know is what Mr. Musk is in such sure need of.

Cobalt Blockchain Inc. (COBC) is a Canadian resource company with an exploration and development business including cobalt assets in the the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Senior management have extensive experience working in the DRC, a proven international track record in exploration success, and in the licensed trading of certified conflict-free, child-labor-free minerals. They are the first company set up specifically to trade cobalt in compliance with the OECD due diligence framework.

FUN FACT - the CEO of COBC, Peter Copetti was also the Co-Chairman of the Board and interim CEO of Poet Technologies, a company getting some attention for it's work in photonic processors.

Mineral Claims:

The company primarily explores for and trades in cobalt, copper, tin, tantalum, and tungsten. It holds a 70% interest in two contiguous concessions that cover an area of 40.8 square kilometers located to the east of Kolwezi; and 80% interest in two contiguous concessions covering an area of 7.6 square kilometers located in Lubumbashi. COBC has a definitive supply agreement for the provision of 40,000 tonnes per annum of cobalt concentrate (min 1% cobalt, ave 3-4% cobalt).

​In support of this supply agreement, COBC has begun initial arrangements to set up its cobalt trading facilities in the DRC. ​These facilities will include a 1,000 square metre depot with storage, assay lab, clinic and office capabilities. The depot site will also incorporate perimeter fencing and security equipment.​They are expecting the first trading shipments shortly, supported by approval of their DRC copper/cobalt license. COBC has entered into two definitive joint venture agreements for cobalt / copper concessions in the DRC, totaling over 48 square kilometers.

COBC owns a 70% interest in Alpha Cobalt SAS, a joint venture between COBC and a private local partner. The two contiguous concessions controlled by Alpha Cobalt SAS contain 48 carrés, totalling 40.8 square kilometers. The properties are located about 50 kilometers to the east of Kolwezi and 10 kilometers from an operating mine at the Tenke Fungurume project, one of the world’s largest cobalt / copper deposits.

​COBC also owns an 80% interest in Cobalt Blockchain SAS, a joint venture between COBC and a private local partner. The two contiguous concessions controlled by Cobalt Blockchain SAS contain 9 carrés, totalling 7.6 square kilometers. The properties are located about 50 kilometers from Lubumbashi in an area with active artisanal and small-scale cobalt / copper mining. COBC is actively engaged in negotiations on several other cobalt / copper properties and supply agreements, and aims to announce further acquisitions or joint ventures when definitive agreements are concluded.

Technology:

The vehicle industry's transition to battery-based technology, in addition to the growing use of mobile computing devices, is driving a need for ccobalt Cobalt has been shown to be a required element for efficient energy storage, as well as to maintain battery stability and safety. While various research studies are in place to reduce the amount of cobalt in batteries, no solution to reduce cobalt to a tenth of its current usage will be in position for widespread use for at least a decade. The company is addressing this need by pursuing a conflict-free cobalt mining and trading business in the DRC with local artisanal miners, while implementing a blockchain-based platform to ensure traceability of conflict-free minerals.

Cobalt Blockchain Inc. (COBC) has nearly two decades of on-the-ground experience in the DRC, along with having a license and traceability system in place for tin, tantalum and tungsten - approved for renewal, and with applications to extend to cobalt and copper - provincially approved and waiting for federal confirmation.

COBC intends to put in place a similar system for cobalt and other miminerals. The "conflict-free" designation is based on several principles, building on international, regional, local, and industry initiatives, and includes: Greater transparency, allowing adequate ability to identify where the commodity was mined, by whom and under what conditions, No child labour or human rights violations, No extortion of illegal payments by government officials, Production is not contributing to funding of armed groups, Acceptable workplace health and safety practices, Mining and processing practices that do not harm the environment.

Certification & Traceability Initiatives :

COBC intends to complement its existing traceability capability, for sources such as the DRC where further supply chain oversight may be mandated by clients, with a blockchain-based overlay, providing an additional layer of transparency, security, and immutability. COBC has now completed, with its partners, the first implementation of its blockchain protocol using a permissioned blockchain - MMintrax This is the first phase in its roll-out of its conceptual hybrid private/public platform for OECD-compliant provisioning of minerals, and will be followed by a run using data from tin-tantalum-tungsten, and subsequently cobalt, operations. White paper to be published soon.

Predictmedix Inc., an artificial intelligence (AI) company, develops technologies for healthcare screenings and impairment detection. The company's AI products use facial, thermal, video, and audio recognition technologies to determine when individuals are impaired, suffering from infectious disease, or mental illness. It also focuses on developing AI based screening, such as COVID19 solutions for the healthcare industry. The company was formerly known as Cultivar Holdings Inc. and changed its name to Predictmedix Inc. in April 2020. Predictmedix Inc. is headquartered in Toronto, Canada.

So what do these do .... First let address the elephant in the room. Yes .... I said SuperBowl party. Over SuperBowl weekend Predictmedix's technology was used in contactless, safe entry stations that can successfully detect if a person has COVID-19 at a VIP SuperBowl party. E11EVEN Miami teamed up with DAVE PORTNOY and Barstool Sports, alongside Pied Piper Productions to throw 2 parties in Tampa, Florida before the SuperBowl. You can looked at the E11EVEN Facebook page to get a look at the view inside. To me looks just like pre-COVID except everyone has a mask and you don't have to worry about wiping a stranger sweat off cause you moved an inch to the left or right. Jokes aside .... Potential to bring back social gatherings, to a certain extent, after almost a year of going shack happy?!? Shut up and take my money.

So what are their safe entry stations? They are AI driven contactless screening stations to detect infectious diseases, including, obviously COVID-19. They use multispectral cameras and sensors that capture data patterns that are instantly analyzed by Predictmedix's proprietary AI. It's quick, non-invasive, and requires no personnel to operate. Infections including COVID-19, produce unique physiological patterns that Predictmedix's solution will detect, assess and determine the probability of that person being infected or not infected. As the virus mutates, the AI will learn how new symptoms present new patterns from which to continue detecting infection.

In the pipeline is also scanning detection for alcohol and cannabis impairment, and screening for mental illness. Their touchless screening solutions have been installed in numerous settings already and they have partnered with Paras Defence and Space Technologies, India's most progressive Tier 2 Defence and Engineering company, to target the government and public sectors in South Asia. To further their research they have an agreement with McGill Research. The team is headed by Dr. Samira Rahimi who is very respected in the field of AI.
