Well in response there is nothing to stop people saying yes iwent but because of media speculation I can not comment, as for patients I have been here 4 years and been in suspension for 6 months, so that has long gone,if a gag order has been ordered then fine but all us holders want to know about CDL which we have a right to know, either or some kind of acknowledgement to people's waiting would be appreciated,rant over happy..you're impatience and frustration is taking over your better judgement for best chance at long term success...if they feel it's best to be quiet, we can only trust that people smarter and more informed are better at making that call than us.... more in reply here to your rant on HC... understandable, but, short sighted i feel..
All good AzzAlso, I'm wondering that the leak might not come from the info shared in private here.
What Jag shared to me about the email didn't contain any information regarding MMM relaying his dissapointment of the some minister, to Felix.
CD mentioned something about it in the tweet, then MMM's reply also mentioned it.
So that didn't come from someone who Jag PM'd.
Yeah I was aware Xerof couldn't go but he's well respected on the forums with his open minded and questioning approach and I reckon he would privately be in touch with a few of the players over there
Nope.....apparently!Fuck me can’t we have one fucking weekend without some absolute bullshit article
The same website has posted another hit piece on avz again this morning, having a go at all the NGOs which asked for cominiere and zijin to be punished.Hmmhere we go again.
DRC - Manono lithium mine: AVZ had falsely claimed to have an agreement with the government on the rehabilitation of the Mpiana Mwanga hydro power plant (tribune)
![]()
For its credibility on the financial markets in particular, a company should not indulge in untruths. Yet Australia's AVZ Minerals did the opposite and were once again confounded for misleading claims.
For example, the tender for the rehabilitation of the Mpiana Mwanga hydroelectric power station in Manono, which will supply the energy needed for the Manono lithium mine, was recently won by Katamba Mining. While AVZ claimed to have an agreement with the state. Which would give him ownership of this strategic energy infrastructure to develop the mine. It is on this false basis that AVZ intended to raise funding for the rehabilitation of this plant.
But with the awarding of the market for the rehabilitation of this plant to Katamba Mining, all of AVZ's disinformation has been exposed, to the chagrin of shareholders.
Indeed, in its capacity as a state-owned company, COMINIERE is the sole owner of the Mpiana Mwanga hydroelectric power station. Yet outside, and in particular on the ASX (Australian stock exchange), AVZ misled the DRC, by making the Australian stock exchange and shareholders believe that it had actively signed an agreement (PPP) with the Congolese government and that she has the right to feat it. It is not so!

AVZ joins new DRC Battery Council to develop battery value chain
Nov 26, 2021
AVZ Minerals has provided an update on the recently convened DRC Africa Business Forum and the signing of a pledge to develop a locally sourced battery minerals chain for the burgeoning EV market.
Hosted by the DRC Government in Kinshasa (24-25 November 2021) the DRC-Africa Business Forum was led by its Ministry of Industry and the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), in collaboration with the African Export–Import Bank (Afreximbank), the African Development Bank (ADB), the Africa Finance Corporation (AFC), the Arab Bank for Economic Development in Africa (BADEA), the African Legal Support Facility (ALSF) and the United Nations Global Compact.
A key objective of the DRC-Africa Business Forum was to foster the development of a battery, electric vehicle and renewable energy industrial value chain and market in Africa.
The DRC Government’s expected outcomes for the forum included:
Identification of business opportunities to build regional value chains in the battery, electric vehicle and renewable energy sub-sectors within the DRC and other battery minerals producing countries in Africa; Clear enabling government policies for project developer and financiers including (i) the creation of a DRC Battery Council; (ii) a commitment to invest and build a battery minerals industry in the DRC; and Articulated government support to facilitate investments in battery, electric vehicles and renewable energy value chains in the DRC and in Africa in general.
Serge Ngandu, Corporate Affairs Director for AVZ Minerals’ subsidiary Dathcom Mining, presented AVZ’s flagship Manono Lithium and Tin Project to delegates attending the first day of the DRC-Africa Business Forum. He also participated in a panel discussion with dignitaries from both the DRC and other African nations, including Heads of State and Captains of Industry.
The Presidential discussion, which was led by His Excellency Mr. Felix Antoine Tshisekedi Tshilombo, President of the DRC, provided government leaders with a platform to demonstrate their commitment to and rationale for investing in the battery minerals industry in Africa and within the DRC.
Immediately following the Presidential discussion, the Congolese Government as well as the technical and financial partners such as CEA, AFC and BADEA signed commitments for the development of a battery minerals industry in the DRC.
AVZ’s wholly owned subsidiary AVZ International Pty Ltd was invited to execute this agreement, which was undertaken by Balthazar Tshiseke, the Deputy General Manager and Director of Dathcom.
AVZ’s Managing Director, Nigel Ferguson, said:
“The signing of this pledge provides a strong platform for the development of a battery minerals industry in the DRC which AVZ wholeheartedly supports, and is also an incredibly significant development as we enter the final stages of securing the Mining Licence and permits for the Manono Project.”
“The DRC and Africa is strategically positioned to play a pivotal role in the global transition to clean energy and decarbonisation and the Manono Project will greatly assist to improve the fortunes of the Congolese people, which AVZ Minerals is very supportive”.
“We are excited to be the only aspiring mining company that has been invited to join the newly formed DRC Battery Council which will be presided over by the President of the DRC and the Executive Secretary for the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa, along with a myriad of other significant organisations”.

RDC - Mine de lithium de Manono : AVZ avait prétendu faussement avoir un accord avec le gouvernement sur la réhabilitation de la centrale hydro de Mpiana Mwanga (tribune)
Pour sa crédibilité sur les marchés financiers notamment, une entreprise ne devrait pas se livrer à des contre-vérités. Et pourtant, l’australien AVZ Minerals a fait le contraire et à été une fois de plus confondu pour des déclarations mensongères.7sur7.cd
