Montreal – September 22, 2026 -- PMET Resources Inc. has completed a Phase 2 bench-scale testwork program with Koch Technology Solutions (KTS) that demonstrates a simplified, more selective pathway to convert pollucite concentrate from its Shaakichiuwaanaan Project into high-purity caesium chemical products.

KTS process shows high selectivity, bypassing costly impurity-removal stages

The bench-scale program used approximately 6 kg of pollucite concentrate, assaying 12% Cs2O, produced via X-Ray Transmission ore sorting of drill core from the Vega Caesium Zone at the CV13 Pegmatite. Results confirmed the KTS proprietary flowsheet technology achieves high selectivity for caesium with a much-reduced impurity profile, potentially allowing much of the conventional impurity-removal stages to be skipped and lowering recovery costs into a final high-purity product.

Tamarack, Idaho – September 22, 2026 -- Tamarack Resort is installing automated TechnoAlpin TT10 tower-mounted fan guns to expand permanent snowmaking coverage to more than twenty percent of its existing terrain, targeting the Waltz and Serenity trails ahead of the winter season.

Automated guns target short cold-weather windows before Thanksgiving

Tamarack typically records roughly 200 hours of snowmaking-suitable temperatures before Thanksgiving, but mobile snowguns require crews to manually transport, position, connect and operate equipment, limiting effectiveness during two- to four-hour cold spells. The new TT10 units can activate as soon as conditions allow, letting the resort capture windows previously too short to use with mobile equipment.

West Chester, Pa. – September 22, 2026 -- Track Rabbit has launched a new feature allowing event organizers to run registration and member management through its platform while collecting payment via cash, Venmo, PayPal, a personal card reader, or any other method of their choosing.

Grassroots organizers gain full platform access without merchant processing setup

The feature targets informal automotive gatherings such as cars-and-coffee meetups, club cruise-ins, local track days, and car shows, where organizers often collect a cash gate fee or a Venmo request rather than running transactions through a formal payment processor.

The company drew the 8 million-patient cohort from a de-identified population of 65 million patients, selecting individuals based on a minimum claims threshold and membership in the highest-cost disease categories.

Inaccurate allergy labels block access to first-line infection treatment

Penicillin remains the most effective therapy for many bacterial infections, yet patients with unverified allergy labels are routinely steered toward alternative antibiotics. The AAAAI states that removing inaccurate labels through evaluation improves patient outcomes, lowers healthcare costs and supports efforts against antimicrobial resistance.
