EMX is building a candy business around collectable gummy sets: candy that teaches, celebrates and gets collected as well as eaten. We are looking for partners and investors to join.

Product lines

• Educational gummy sets. Themed sets that teach as they treat, such as the four presidents of Mount Rushmore, US states, famous inventors or animals of the world, each piece with its story on the pack.
• Election candy. In election season, gummies of the candidates: pick a box for your favourite candidate, or collect the whole race.
• Collectable series. Limited editions and new themes that bring customers back to complete the set.
• Gift sets. Boxed sets for holidays, birthdays, graduations and school events.
• Custom corporate candy. Branded gummies and gift boxes in a company’s logo and colours, for clients, events and staff gifts.
• OEM and private label. Gummies made to order under other brands, for retailers, distributors and brand owners.

Why it works

Educational and collectable candy sells on its theme and story, not just price, which supports better margins than everyday candy. Schools, museums, gift shops and tourist sites are natural outlets, and election years and national holidays create built-in sales peaks. Corporate and OEM orders add steady volume in between. Gummies are light and compact, so they ship at low cost through EMX’s US marketplace, warehousing and parcel delivery network.

Partners and investors we are looking for

• Gummy and confectionery manufacturers and co-packers
• Mould, packaging and design partners
• Educational publishers, museums and licensing partners
• Corporate gifting and promotional products companies
• Retailers, gift shops and distributors
• Investors and capital partners

EMX is opening a hard-rock precious-metals mining project to investors. The project is built on a privately owned patented mining claim in the United States, in a historic mining district known for major gold and silver production. The name and location are shared only with qualified investors.

The property

• Patented claim, private land. A patented claim is owned outright: both the surface and the minerals are private property, not a permit to work on federal land. That means more control, simpler permitting and no annual federal claim fees.
• About 160 acres of mountain ground.
• Existing workings. An existing adit (a horizontal mine tunnel) partway up the slope, with old tailings at the surface from earlier mining.
• World-class district. The claim sits in a volcanic district whose rocks are the same types that host large gold and silver deposits nearby.

Why now

Gold and silver prices are near historic highs, and new mapping, geochemical and remote-sensing tools make it faster and cheaper to find where the metal is before any digging starts. Our own analysis of known US gold and silver producers shows their geology closely matches the setting of this claim.

The plan

• Phase 1: confirm. Title and survey records, detailed mapping, sampling of the adit and tailings, and assays.
• Phase 2: define. Geophysics and drilling to outline the ore body and estimate the resource.
• Phase 3: decide. Permitting and a mine plan, a joint venture with an operator, or a sale of the proven project.

Who we are looking for

• Investors for the exploration and drilling phases
• Mining companies and operators interested in a joint venture
• Geologists, drilling contractors and assay laboratories

EMX plans to build a US factory for compressed furniture: sofas, mattresses and other upholstered pieces that are compressed and boxed at the factory, then expand to full size in the customer’s home. A compressed sofa ships in a box a fraction of its normal size, so freight, warehousing and final-mile delivery cost far less, and it can be sold online and shipped by parcel carriers instead of freight trucks.

Making it in the USA means no import tariff on the finished product, short delivery times to American customers, and a supply that is not exposed to ocean freight or trade disputes. The project location and details are shared only with qualified partners.

Partners and investors we are looking for

• Compressed furniture manufacturers who want US production
• Foam, frame, fabric and compression equipment suppliers
• Investors and capital partners
• Retailers, online sellers and distributors who want US-made compressed furniture

What EMX brings

• The US company, factory site and permits
• Local hiring and plant management
• Online marketplace sales, warehousing and parcel delivery across the US

EMX is preparing a project to enter the US lumber industry with a new kind of operation: automated harvesting on steep slopes, a robotic sawmill, and downstream wood products, with every harvested area replanted. To protect the project, the location and site details are shared only with qualified partners.

The opportunity

The United States has billions of mature trees ready for harvest. Many stand on steep slopes that conventional logging crews cannot reach safely or at a profit, so the timber is left standing while the US imports lumber. Automation changes that: machines that can work safely on steep ground make this timber economic to harvest, and a highly automated mill turns it into lumber at low cost.

How the project works

• Steep-slope robotic harvesting. Automated and remotely operated harvesting machines work slopes that are too steep or too dangerous for manual crews, with fewer people exposed to risk.
• Robotic lumber mill. Automated log scanning, optimised cutting, sorting, stacking and drying, for high yield from every log and consistent quality.
• Downstream products. The mill feeds higher-value products made on site, such as dimensional lumber, engineered wood, pallets, wood pellets and other wood products, so little of the tree is wasted.
• Harvest and replant. Every harvested area is replanted, keeping the forest productive for the next harvest and the one after that.

Partners and investors we are looking for

• Forestry robotics and automated harvesting technology
• Sawmill automation, scanning and wood processing equipment
• Manufacturers of engineered wood and other downstream wood products
• Reforestation and nursery partners
• Investors and capital partners
• Buyers and distributors for lumber and wood products

What EMX brings

• The US company, site development and permits
• Local hiring and management
• Sales, distribution and logistics across the US
