The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) holds a significant share of the global lithium reserve, a key element in the transition to a green economy. However, an ambitious extraction project, located in Manono, is caught in a legal and ethical imbroglio that raises many questions about the management of the country's natural resources.
Three companies initially formed a joint venture to develop this project: the Australian AVZ Minerals, the Cominière, representing the Congolese state, and Datomir. Despite the expert reports that emphasise the viability and importance of this project, tensions quickly emerged between the partners. AVZ's partners expressed the need to renegotiate the terms of the agreement in order to ensure fair profit sharing. However, this request was rejected by AVZ, creating a climate of distrust and discord.
The situation worsened when Datomir challenged the initially agreed 15% payment. This impasse led to a lawsuit, brought before the Kinshasa Commercial Court. Pending the settlement of the dispute, an escrow account of US$20 million was established at the request of AVZ, thus guaranteeing some financial security for the project.
The involvement of the Congolese authorities, including that of the President of the Republic, was requested to facilitate the conciliation of the parties. However, worrying allegations have emerged: withdrawals would have been made from the $20 million in the escrow account, funds that would have been used by AVZ to bribe those responsible in order to gain the advantage in this case.
