1. A siliceous volcanic ash used to produce hydraulic cement.

2. Any of various artificially produced substances resembling pozzuolana ash.
 Corp., Reno, Nev., Landmark Environmental Inc. will utilize the diatom diatom (dī`ətŏm', -tōm'), unicellular organism of the kingdom Protista, characterized by a silica shell of often intricate and beautiful sculpturing. Most diatoms exist singly, although some join to form colonies.  frustules to remove organic contaminants, heavy metals and radionuclides from contaminated surface and ground water sources.

The Diatomite Mineral Compound will be treated and processed by the American Pozzolan Corp. to a purity and grade that can collect angstrom angstrom (ăng`strəm), abbr. Å, unit of length equal to 10−10 meter (0.0000000001 meter); it is used to measure the wavelengths of visible light and of other forms of electromagnetic radiation, such as ultraviolet  size particles to remove radioactive cesium and strontium strontium (strŏn`shēəm) [from Strontian, a Scottish town], a metallic chemical element; symbol Sr; at. no. 38; at. wt. 87.62; m.p. 769°C;; b.p. 1,384°C;; sp. gr. 2.6 at 20°C;; valence +2.  from low-level waste stream of nuclear installations. The US Department of Environment has established this unique deposit's contents as an extremely viable product in the remediation of nuclear contaminated areas.

The significance of this agreement would enable Landmark Environmental Inc. to aide in the remediation of numerous radioactive contaminated areas such as the Hanford Site in Washington State which is expected to cost over $50 billion dollars in the next 30-40 years as reported by the Canadian Consulate General in Seattle.

The US Geological Survey and the US Bureau of mines, Bulletin 1707-C 1987, concludes the deposit as probably the only domestic source of natural Pozzolan being mined. Landmark Environmental Inc. would be guaranteed exclusive rights to a unique and sizable source of the Diatomite Mineral Compound renamed "Landmark Diatomite" for a period of five years with the option to renew to another five years.

Landmark Environmental Inc. is also pleased to announce that on- going definitive research and development on technological processed for field demonstration in the remediation of nuclear contaminated site has been conditionally agreed to by Professors Manoranjan Misra and Rajendra Mehta of the University of Nevada University of Nevada could refer to either of the universities in the Nevada System of Higher Education:
  • University of Nevada, Reno (UNR)
  • University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV)
 Chemical and Metallurgical Engineering Department.

Dr.'s Misra and Mehta have been instrumental in previously concluded research on the Diatomite Mineral Compound and introduction and use of Diatomite Mineral Compound to the Department of Energy in the United States for it's use on existing nuclear contaminated sites throughout the US.

Dr.'s Misra and Mehta have enthusiastically embraced research involved with a combination of "Landmark A.C.T." and "Landmark Diatomite" to remediate a "cocktail of contaminants" (heavy metals and hydrocarbons) associated with 95% of the worlds contaminated sites.

Landmark Environmental Inc. manufactures and distributes configured items of A.C.T. (Aminoplast Capillary Technology) a 100% biodegradable absorbent and microbe enhancer which is very effective at cleaning up hydrocarbon contamination in water or soil. Landmark A.C.T. has passed the required Environment Canada and Environmental Protection Agency Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), independent agency of the U.S. government, with headquarters in Washington, D.C. It was established in 1970 to reduce and control air and water pollution, noise pollution, and radiation and to ensure the safe handling and  tests and is safe for use in human, fish, and wildlife habitat.
