TECHNOLOGIES TO POWER A NEW ECONOMY
TECHNONLGY BEING DEVELOPED

At LUXZIUM, we fundamentally like large problems that are amenable to technological disruption. We seek out defensible advantages: proprietary and protected technological advances, business model innovations, and unique partnerships. Most importantly, we invest in “A” teams and founders with a demonstrable history of development/traction. We invest more in people than in a specific plan, because plans often change.

Wyoming may hold the key to the rare earth minerals trade war with China

Wyoming is best known for its picturesque views and towering mountain ranges, but if Randy Scott has his way, it’ll become famous for something else: rare earth minerals. These resources have been in the spotlight since China, the country that dominates global supply, threatened in May to cut off supply to the U.S. as part of the U.S.–China trade war.

Since 2011, when Scott became the president and CEO of Littleton, Colorado-based Rare Earth Resources, the veteran mining executive and metallurgical engineer has been trying to get a massive stash of rare earth — a metallic element that’s used in cellphones, electric vehicle batteries, fluorescent lights, defense, clean energy and much more — out of Bear Lodge, a small mountain range tucked away in the northeast corner of the state, about 40 miles from South Dakota’s border.



FUNDING

About MNvest

MNvest is a Minnesota law permitting investment crowdfunding, a new way to fund Minnesota's growing businesses. Similar to reward-based crowdfunding sites (like Kickstarter), MNvest enables Minnesota businesses to legally advertise investment opportunities to all Minnesota residents.


FIAT to CRYPTO METAL COINS

A cryptocurrency is a digital or virtual currency that is secured by cryptography, which makes it nearly impossible to counterfeit or double-spend. Many cryptocurrencies are decentralized networks based on blockchain technology—a distributed ledger enforced by a disparate network of computers.

Is a Permanent Magnet motor Feasible? Yes, there are billions of them in use all over the world

Is it possible to make a “motor” that uses permanent magnets only? NO. A MOTOR, as the dictionary describes, “is a machine that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy.” In another words, the electrical energy is a “battery” and the mechanical energy is the “rotation.”

WHAT’S NEXT

THIS NEW TECHNOLOGY WILL NEED MILLIONS OF TONS OF RARE EARTHS FOR THE MAGNETS. WHERE WILL THEY COME FROM. 

PRECIOUS METALS

Which Precious Metals Should I Invest In?

Gold and silver are the most popular precious metals. However, there are also many other types of precious metals, such as platinum and palladium.

Throughout history, gold has been an unparalleled store of value. Gold is a monetary metal and alternative form of currency. It has no counterparty risk. Gold has also served as a safe-haven asset in times of geopolitical upheaval or economic downturn. Central banks hold roughly one-third of the global investable gold stock to diversify foreign currency reserves. Historically, gold has been an effective diversification tool for portfolios.

Silver is a hybrid metal – it has incredible physical properties which make it useful in technology and as a form of money. These properties lend silver to a wide spectrum of uses. Approximately 50% of the annual silver supply is consumed for industrial purposes. Silver is affordable relative to gold and has a reputation as the precious metal of the “common person.” Like gold, silver is a tool for portfolio diversification, but its price is more volatile than gold.

Platinum and Palladium are the lesser known precious metals. They both have incredible properties that can make them very valuable. Platinum and palladium demand are both driven by the autocatalyst market but also jewelry. They are rarer than gold and silver and produced in only a few countries around the world, making their supply more sensitive to changes.


GOLD



SILVER

PLATINUM

Platinum is a chemical element with the symbol Pt and atomic number 78. It is a dense, malleable, ductile, highly unreactive, precious, silverish-white transition metal. Its name is derived from the Spanish term platino, meaning “little silver”. Wikipedia
Symbol: Pt
Atomic number: 78
Electron configuration: [Xe] 4f145d96s1
Atomic mass: 195.084 u
Melting point: 3,215°F (1,768°C)
Parent material class: Metal

RHODIUM


Iridium is a chemical element with the symbol Ir and atomic number 77. A very hard, brittle, silvery-white transition metal of the platinum group, iridium is considered to be the second-densest metal with a density of 22.56 g/cm³ as defined by experimental X-ray crystallography. Wikipedia
Symbol: Ir
Electron configuration: [Xe] 4f145d76s2
Atomic number: 77
Atomic mass: 192.217 u
Melting point: 4,471°F (2,466°C)
Discoverer: Smithson Tennant


PALLADIUM

Palladium is a chemical element with the symbol Pd and atomic number 46. It is a rare and lustrous silvery-white metal discovered in 1803 by the English chemist William Hyde Wollaston. Wikipedia
Symbol: Pd
Electron configuration: [Kr] 4d¹⁰
Atomic number: 46
Atomic mass: 106.42 u
Melting point: 2,831°F (1,555°C)
Van der Waals radius: 163 pm

IRIDIUM is a chemical element with the symbol Ir and atomic number 77. A very hard, brittle, silvery-white transition metal of the platinum group, iridium is considered to be the second-densest metal (after osmium) with a density of 22.56 g/cm3 as defined by experimental X-ray crystallography. However, at room temperature and standard atmospheric pressure, iridium has been calculated to have a density of 22.65 g/cm3, 0.04 g/cm3 higher than osmium measured the same way. Still, the experimental X-ray crystallography value is considered to be the most accurate, as such iridium is considered to be the second densest element. It is the most corrosion-resistant metal, even at temperatures as high as 2000 °C. Although only certain molten salts and halogens are corrosive to solid iridium, finely divided iridium dust is much more reactive and can be flammable.
