Abstract: A Secure Environment Public Register (SEPR) provides a method and system that allows precious metals in the shape of bar(s) or units to be certified, specially numbered to provide exact linkage to an owner, allow secure movement of precious metals between secure facilities, and though Blockchain allow secure transfer of ownership between individuals and organizations. The SEPR allows gold and other precious metals to be easily held and traded in commerce with all the advantages of holding precious metals. The SEPR system allows exact audits of the metal bars on hand and avoids over-selling units since each bar is serialized and ownership is documented in a public register.

Abstract: A system may include a physically secure environment configured to receive precious metal thereto, to retain precious metal therein, and release precious metal therefrom. A system may include a registration system configured to record and maintain records containing unique precious metal identification information, physically secure location information of precious metal, lot identification information of precious metal, and one of certification information or de-processing information of precious metal. A system may include allocating a portion of a total quantity of certified standard uniform characteristic (SUC) precious metal units in a first location within the physically secure environment to be associated with a first lot and creating a first private registry with corresponding records associated with the allocated portion of certified SUC precious metal units in the first location.

Abstract: A disposable dispensing device for storing and dispensing fluids, such as liquids and gels is disclosed. The dispensing device is a scalable packaging solution including an outer protective housing or shell, optionally a fluid reservoir, and an orifice from which the materials are expelled. The dispensing device can also include a dispensing button that activates an internal pumping system via an actuator mechanism that translates a force in a first direction into a force in a second direction. The dispensing device is particularly useful for liquids such as fragrances or colognes, gels, purified water, dry powders, creams, and pharmaceutical products such as eye ear drops or sprays. The device by design has many uses, is highly portable, and can include an outer reusable and decorative case.
