I know we're very much focused on the minerals aspect, but these long suffering people truly need an end to the ongoing horrors visited on them over the last 30 years.

This is Dr. Karl Von Batten.

Ladies and gentlemen,

President @realDonaldTrump has done it again. On the back of brokering the Israel-Iran ceasefire, he has just successfully brokered a peace deal between the #DRC and #Rwanda—two tasks that many, especially the left-wing media and their friends in Europe, said were impossible. Last year, just a few days after he escaped an assassination attempt, the President had a small gathering and told a few of us that he believed God saved his life for a reason: to use the power of the Presidency to change the United States and the world for the better. I believed it then. I believe it now.

This is only the beginning. Next stop: the US-DRC Mineral Partnership. God bless the United States of America, and God bless the Democratic Republic of the Congo

"Those were the days"

There's nothing worth being nostalgic about when it comes to violence against the fairer sex. Even back then there was nothing more pathetic.

Just the way it was, is all. Certainly not nostalgic for it.

I think this is a fairly appropriate representation. Though we haven't had a pillow for a while

The Count will advise tomorrow

Oh my…….

I am such a fucking amateur making my own gin…. So much to learn, so much to test, so much to just shut up and listen!!!

If only I had a shit-ton of cash and eyeing off retirement…

C’mon AVZ, the members of TSE need me to up my spirits game.

Yesterday started at Clovelly for some barefoot bowls and beers from 10am.

Next to the 4 pillars distillery in Surry Hills and into the private bar upstairs for tasting and learning much more about their process. $110 a head is steep but you could drink as much as you want.

The Count Distilllery will be modeled on this..

Future Son in Law is navy, so the ensuing pub crawl was into all the old pubs in Sydney.

Lord Nelson

Hero of Waterloo

Tucked into bed with the Countess in the Swissotel by midnight and asleep by 12.01

A good night. Haven’t been on a pub crawl for probably 20 years….. Will be how the AVZ roadtrip takes place eh!

The article popped up on my phone this morning and hence, I presumed that it was a new article. Does the full article mention the article date?

Jeff Bezos sold $5.4billion worth of stock in Amazon on Friday June 27 as reported here.
This represents approximately 2.45% of his total shares.
Safe to say raising funds to buy AVZ at a fair price wouldn’t be difficult.

While Jeff Bezos’s recent sale of approximately $5 billion in Amazon shares coincides with KoBold Metals—a mining startup backed by Bezos and Bill Gates—acquiring AVZ Minerals’ stake in the Manono lithium project in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), there is no direct evidence linking the two events.





KoBold Metals has entered into a framework agreement to purchase AVZ Minerals’ interest in the Manono lithium deposit, one of the world’s largest hard rock lithium resources. This move aligns with U.S. efforts to secure critical mineral supplies and reduce reliance on Chinese-controlled sources.





Bezos’s stock sale was conducted under a pre-arranged trading plan and is consistent with his history of selling Amazon shares to fund various ventures, including his space exploration company, Blue Origin, and philanthropic initiatives.





While it’s plausible that proceeds from the stock sale could support investments like KoBold’s lithium project, no public statements have confirmed such a connection.

Mate he is getting ready for a divorce settlement. One look and you can tell it’s going to cost him dearly.

After the signing ceremony with Rubio, he turned to Boulos and called him an 'absolute superstar'. Then quipped, what's your next trick? Sudan, Boulous immediately replied. To which Rubio said, excellent, let's do it.

This Trump administration is certainly proving the naysayers wrong right now. More power to them.

Personally I don't mind if the negotiations are going on for another 3 month while the lithium price is on the run...
its defiantly warming up in the lithium market...

China can't keep flooding its market indefinitely with nasty lepidolite in order to manipulate the price of imported product. There will be a time soon when the liabilities associated with the extraction and processing of this low grade material cannot be further absorbed by provincial budgets and processors...and then prices will change virtually overnight.

Scepticism in Goma over peace deal between DR Congo and Rwanda

Critics of the agreement have questioned whether it is thorough enough and will be able to bring peace.
