1/ Except for LiOH CIF, all #lithium chemical & ore prices fell today in the Chinese spot market. But, LC futures rose by 1.66% (on average) & the gap between average spot Li2CO3 prices & LC futures (at 15:00) continued to be reversed to - CNY 3,214, meaning we're in "contango."

'The United States is prepared to turn a blind eye to hastily organized elections in the DRC, however contentious'Gringos already know too imo

According to insiders in Washington, there is an explanation for this leniency: the US has an agenda. Indeed, the United States is prepared to turn a blind eye to hastily organized elections in the DRC, however contentious, and will fund them no matter what. In return, however, Washington expects Kinshasa to subject the export of raw materials such as cobalt, copper and lithium to China to significantly stricter conditions.
DR Congo presidential election: partial results give Tshisekedi a clear lead | Africanews
As at christmas day, Félix Tshisekedi, who has been in power since the beginning of 2019 and is running for a second five-year term, has achieved a score of 81.4% according to the Céni,
DR Congo presidential election: partial results give Tshisekedi a clear lead
The Democratic Republic of Congo's electoral commission (Céni) on Monday continued to release partial results from the December 20-21 presidential election, with incumbent leader Félix Tshisekedi leading by a wide margin -over 80% of the vote.
The results announced so far relate to 1,876,827 voters, out of a total of nearly 44 million registered in the vast country of around 100 million inhabitants.
At this stage of the vote count, according to the Céni, Félix Tshisekedi, who has been in power since the beginning of 2019 and is running for a second five-year term, has achieved a score of 81.4%.
He was followed by businessman and former governor of Katanga (southeast) Moïse Katumbi (15.18%) and the other opponent Martin Fayulu (1.2%). The twenty or so other candidates in the running, including Nobel Peace Prize winner Denis Mukwege, failed to reach 1%.
The Céni has not established the turnout rate, but has decided to gradually release the results of the presidential elections since Friday. These were held at the same time as the legislative, provincial and local elections, for which the results will be published at a later date.
The quadruple ballot had been scheduled for one day, the 20th, but was extended due to a number of logistical problems, officially by one day but extending into Christmas in some remote areas.
Opposition candidates have been denouncing the "chaos" and "irregularities" that marred the vote since the very first day.
Some are planning a demonstration for next Wednesday, while others are calling for the elections to be cancelled outright. The Catholic Archbishop of Kinshasa, Cardinal Fridolin Ambongo, described the elections as a "gigantic mess" during his Christmas mass on Sunday evening.
Like some fifteen embassies before him, the prelate called for "prudence and restraint" in a country with a troubled political history, often marked by violence, whose subsoil is immensely rich in minerals but whose population is predominantly poor.

FYI, in case you’re wondering
Explaining contango and backwardation :
When a market is in contango, the forward price of a futures contract is higher than the spot price. Conversely, when a market is in backwardation, the forward price of the futures contract is lower than the spot price.
Contango is bullish, backwardation is bearish
Lets be honest it was expected , nothing in that place is on the up and up unless you have money or china backing you always was always will .'The United States is prepared to turn a blind eye to hastily organized elections in the DRC, however contentious'

And there was a Belgian election observer in Kinshasa, who highly likely observed what he shouldn't have observed, with the result he went flying from the 12th floor, without parachute. I feel very sorry for his family.'The United States is prepared to turn a blind eye to hastily organized elections in the DRC, however contentious'

He was one of the very few of the team that stayed to observe.
Maybe he should have enjoyed the food, smile a lot and only take mental notes, leave the report writing till it is safe to do so.
However it is pretty clear the rest of the observers should understand the message, if they value their life.
Dead men don't talk.
But, it is reported as suicide, why am I not surprised.

Have someone the chance to remove the paywall? I didn’t get it with the methods I found.
All I could found elsewhere is that Madagascar ignoring a icsid ruling since 2020.
https://www.africaintelligence.com/...tananarivo-ignores-icsid-ruling,109998846-art
@9cardomaha hopefully you can explain me what consequences the drc really have to face if they ignore the icsid? And how can we enforce a verdict? And if we claim for damages, who or how will they pay for it?
I wonder the whole time why the MoM made the order to give it all to cominiere after the icsid process had already started and a MoU was „close“. I mean they knew it for a long time and for me it looks like they decided to ignore it before they continued to fuck us over.
I’m interested what you think about it.

Its absolutely gob smacking that a president could garner a 80% vote approval , even at this early stage of the count for potentially leaving the DRC in a worse postion than when he took office in 2019.'The United States is prepared to turn a blind eye to hastily organized elections in the DRC, however contentious'

I mean , at least the DRC locals knew what they were up for when Kabila was in office, corruption, despair and no hope full stop, but FT mandate was to quell corruption, up lift the locals standard of living, he conducted multiple trips around the globe spruiking that DRC was the epi centre of lithium battery hub, the vibe was positive...........yet in the end, DRC locals lives are still in despair, the war rages on and Manono is still stuck in the shit hole and corruption carries on unabated aka Cominiere / Zijin.
The ole saying, 'under promising and over delivering' is much better than 'over promising and under delivering "......or in FT case, delivering nothing.
Anyway, it is what it is , FT will receive another term in office, almost a monty for sure , so thus hoping @Dave Evans theory comes true and FT awards AVZ the ML once the politics is over.
Hoping that sometime in 2024 , the pain and anguish of LTH of AVZ for the last 20 months, turns into a bit of joy....
peeps !!
