WHITEFISH, MT / ACCESSWIRE / January 20, 2015 / The cannabis industry began the new year on a high note, with the Marijuana Index(TM) rebounding off of its 52-week lows established on December 31, 2014. With Peter Thiel's big decision to invest in the pot industry and favorable new legislation being introduced, investors' appetite for marijuana stocks could be on the rise in 2015 after a rough end to 2014. The venture market for weed stocks has also been on the rise, which suggests that some big-name initial public offerings could be on the way as the industry matures.

This further supports our earlier 2014 actions to progressively step up our reporting levels from limited information, to current information, and with the recent completion of two years of financial audits and an initial Form 10 filing, toward being fully reporting with the SEC."

Mentor Capital, Inc. (OTC Markets: MNTR) announced it is pleased to be on the cover and featured in the "Budding Opportunities" Fall 2014 edition of Food & Drink which explores the "emerging world of cannabis edibles." Over a range of topics and in plain terms, the article explains how and how much heating of marijuana by smoking or baking activates the psychoactive THC. This gave birth to the joint and the magic brownies of the 60's. These mainstays are now being updated with vape systems and cannabis infused edible products. Similarly, the tried and true process of extracting the active marijuana oils by making cannabutter on the stove top is described. Here, the most modern approach is to now use liquefied CO2 at 1,000 atmospheres which also dissolves oils. Reducing the pressure releases the gas leaving only the very pure cannabis extract behind.
