But what about smooth cayenne… a fucking big contradiction right there. Like Felix and his promises ‘it’ll be smooth but it’ll burn like hell’

Lithium price jumps to fresh all-time high
Benchmark Mineral Intelligence reports lithium prices in China hit an all-time high on Wednesday as battery manufacturers scramble to secure supply amid booming demand from the electric car market.
According to the battery supply chain researcher and pricing agency, Chinese battery grade lithium carbonate rose by 1.7% in the past week to reach an all-time high of $74,475 a tonne, more than doubling so far in 2022.
Prices for lithium hydroxide, which is used in batteries with high nickel content is up nearly 150% this year, trading at $73,925 a tonne this week, according to the Benchmark Lithium Price Assessment.
Benchmark points out lithium prices have now trended upwards for 24 straight months as the EV market continues to expand with global sales of electric vehicles reaching one million for the first time in September, according to Rho Motion.

Food for thought on the Road to Manono, while AVZ is bogged down in the DRC
C'mon Felix, pull your Fatshi Finger Out and get the Ball ( Mill ) Rolling ffs mate !!!
Every Day you Dilly-Dally ( waste time through aimless wandering or indecision )
Is a Day Lost in more ways than one
Read the document from the NGOs dated 11th Oct with regards to the Mining Sector and the hold up within.
Then do something about it, but FFS do something other than Talk, because
Less Talk, More Action, It's Time to Walk the Walk when it comes to Corruption !!!

Subject:The COMINIERE SA, DATHCOM MINING and other public mining companies andestablishments file.
Excellencythe President of the Republic and Head of State,In our capacity as Congolesecivil society organizations and platforms specializing in mining issues(Justicia Asbl, LICOCO, RND Asbl, POM, MDR, GANVE, CDH, ESPOIR ONG, RCEN,CERN/CENCO, TPRDC, MAX IMPACT) making the monitoring on mining in theDemocratic Republic of Congo, we come to inform you about the subject on thesidelines.
Indeed,Excellency Mr. President of the Republic, we are in possession of credible andwell-documented information from the General Inspectorate of Finance on thesubject of the very poor management of national assets of which the interimDirector General of COMINIERE SA is guilty, as well as as well as denunciationsof poor management of SOKIMO (freezing of the Zani and Kodo, Kibali Sud andMoku-Beverendi deposits as well as the hydroelectric power station of Budana bythe recently dismissed representatives) by the trade unionists of this publicmining company.
The confusion maintained todayby the interim managers of COMINIERE around the Mplana Mwanga hydroelectricpower station in Tanganyika through a call for tenders for its rehabilitation,while the documented information in our possession provides information on thework that the Government of the Republic (Ministry and General Secretariat forEnergy and Hydraulic Resources) have been carrying out there since 2019 with aninternational firm, is a strategy ill-conceived by those who are blocking therevival of the mining industry in this province of the country rich in gold,coltan, cassiterite, lithium, petroleum and other natural resources, requiresyour discretionary instructions to the Government in the name of the higherinterests of the nation.
Whilesparing your august personality of the details that we will be able to sharewith your Director of Cabinet and your Deputy Director of Cabinet in charge ofeconomic and financial matters, this information taken from the technical andobjective report of the General Inspectorate of Finance which depends on yourcabinet provide information, in particular, on the incapacity for the GeneralManager of the company. of the COMINIERE Portfolio to ensure the protection ofthe mining heritage of the State in the exploitation of Congolese Lithium(exposed to the whims of the Chineseof Dathomir and Zijin as well as to the Canadians who fight awkwardly at UnitedCominière including a dispute over tons of coltan taken fraudulently by theCooperative "Cooproco" on the concessions of others in the provinceof Tanganyika is covered according to information in our possession) atthe time of the energy transition for which our country is positioned underyour leadership as a Solution Country .
Civil societyorganizations from the extractive sector of the Democratic Republic of Congoare wondering to this day the real contribution in technology and cash inDathcom Mining of the famous mining company Dathomir, whose Chinese commonlycalled Simon Cong (who would be the owner of the Fleuve Congo Hotel and thecompany managing major toll booths in part of the southern part of the formerprovince of Katanga) appears according to the official documents in ourpossession as one of the representatives. Excellency Mr. President of theRepublic, the facts charged to the interim Managing Director of COMINIERE bythe Report of the General Inspectorate of Finance since April 2022 are contraryto the Code of Ethics applicable to State officials, laws and regulationsgoverning mining in our country as well as the efforts that you and yourgovernment are constantly undertaking to improve the business climate and thesocio-economic living conditions of the Congolese through good governance ofour resources. The clumsy management of the country's mining and energy assetsby the outgoing Committee of SOKIMO and the current managers of COMINIERE arecontrary to your policy of developing our 145 territories from the base thanksto our natural resources, their management has frozen mining assets or has madethem available to speculators and predators who have never developed them whilerefusing or complicating those who can develop them according to norms andstandards international agreements for the benefit of the Republic and itspopulation. Our organizations are surprised that while there are investors inthe country with technologies, finances and expertise to develop miningprojects, some managers of public companies and sector ministries prefer toentrust deposits to commissionaires in a suspicious way and to the detriment ofthe general interest and of the DRC. The same is true for the mining companiesof KISENGE-MANGANESE, SODIMICO, SAKIMA and CAMI (Mining Land Registry) whoseofficials in office for more than a decade, for almost all these public miningcompanies and establishments, had to be replaced since your coming to power forthe good of the country. In view of the urgency and to save what can still besaved within these state mining companies and considering grassrootsdevelopment, totally crossing your vision of building without support orassistance from an outside expert was the UNDP or not, in the territories ofFaradje and Watsa found around Kibali Gold Mine in Haut-Uélé as well as in theLuilu Sector in Lualaba for example, our organizations ask you to instruct thegovernment of the Republic the urgent replacement of public officers ofCOMINIERE SA after selective recruitment as recommended by COPIREP (as much asfor other mining companies in the State Portfolio) and the immediate transferof the interim Managing Director to the General Prosecutor's Office of theRepublic in in order to answer for his actions before an instructing judge onthe basis of the 1GF Report.
The immediate notification ofthe Exploitation License to Dathcom Mining by the Director General of theMining Cadastre who blocks it in violation of the mining law by undermining thecredibility of your policy of good governance, as requested more than onehundred and sixty days ago by the Minister of Mines, in strict compliance withthe legal deadline, the prescriptions of the Mining Code and Regulations andthe laws of the Republic, will also reassure more about the good businessclimate in the country and will ensure the development of certain territoriesof the province of Tanganyika from from the grassroots according to your visionin favor of local communities and the ambitious plan of sustainable communitydevelopment instilled in this partnership by the Australian partner AVZInternational. Your only decision, as the sole guarantor of theinterests of the Congolese people and of the Republic, will bring order to thecountry's mining sector in the granting of permits and protection of the rightsof holders of mining rights, will deter other managers of public companies inthe Portfolio who take pleasure in managing them like property without a masteror personal property, and will also be a strong signal to serious investors whoare still reluctant to do win-win business in our country. Hoping that thiswill hold your particular attention, please accept, Excellency the President ofthe Republic and Head of State, our patriotic greetings with our mostrespectful tributes.

FARK ME he is still doing the ol twot investor special and asking people not to discuss non TA in TA threads. Absolute flog and I'm still looking forward to the $2 Tranny Party for the full run down.
We had a great back and forth, I'd call him Twot Investor and he'd call me DiscoDick then he'd say something even stupider than before.
The age old debate, do you take the Ripley and risk lacerations or the smooth Cayenne and risk turd degree burns

I'll be flying under the radar . I am just as likely to cop a punch in the face .wombat74 is a fictitious character . He doesn't exist in real life . He meets no one nor will be met by anyone .
Do you think FIRB would approve a take over ?

But Deboss has AVZ +RIO ??

Some people don't get it, language is a communication tool.
I one wishes to be a poet, fuck off and post on the poets thread, here we talk about lithium and all things AVZ.
I was once accused of not proper speaking English and challenged the accuser, to get a pint of beer in a Scottish pub and finish it first.
Experience won over proper English.
