Great post from the Ghost
It is very clear you are not a holder, your suggestions since this thread started are clearly in support of Zinjin. No need to comment further on this fact.
What you need to know:
Many of your grammatical comprehension errors are similar to Chinese speakers. I speak 4 Asian languages, 3 fluently. I deal with Mandarin speakers regularly.
The answer to both of your posts:
"Remember that our 15% acquisition is an option only, despite our preemptive rights." - this is where being a native speaker matters in contract law and what who having the option of what matters.
"We" (being AVZ Minerals) have the first right of refusal to purchase 15% of project ownership from Cominiere. This means, nobody else can be offered the right to purchase until we say no. It does not mean Cominiere can simply elect to not offer it to us.
To add to this, your friends at Zinjin and Jincheng mining co's may have just done us a favour - the price agreed on for sale was 33 million USD. We know it is worth far, far more than that. So did Zinjin and Jinchen, but you thought you could steal from the Congolese people before mining had even started. Depending on Congolese precedent, if the purchase process was illegal only based on the fact that it was not first offered to AVZ and AVZ was not present at the board meetings which apparently took place, Congolese precedent may argue that "the price" has already been determined. It may very well pan out that AVZ end up paying only $33m USD for this, when we should have paid more.
Second post:
If AVZ holders are too poor to afford to back their own mine, would AVZ holders be comfortable or willing to work alongside Zinjin (I read that type of wordspeak a lot in the Zinjin media releases, by the way so another hint at who you represent):
No - the holders of AVZ do not want Zinjin to hold any ownership of our mine. We are Australians (along with a few of the rest of us stragglers, I am a Kiwi/Australian dual citizen) and we can fund our own mine. We are not poor, destitute and we are not in tears on the side of the street asking for enough bread and water. That was Oliver Twist.
You continue to mention "if we", "our", and other statements that insinuate you are a holder however your statements throughout this thread have shown your true disclosure. You infact are not a holder. You are part of the 50 cent wu mao boiler room and we know that. We know who the real holders are, we can see by previous posts and all of your small boys club did not post prior to 2 weeks ago. You, Jasmine Tea and the rest of you. We know exactly who you are.
Go tell your bosses at the red round table that the shareholders of AVZ do not support Zinjin, they are disgusted with the underhanded back channel you attempted to use to steal their company from them and they are very comfortable funding Manono and its' people "to mine".
If it matters, your little incursion has actually soured the view of many shareholders in respect to the CATH deal also, we actually want to go it alone. Australian Li20 miners are far more successful than any Chinese venture (a stab at the "holder" questioning how many Aussie co's were successful in the Congo right now). The DRC government clearly trust us and we want the best for everyone locally and nationally.
We have the skilled foreign people, we have the shareholder funds, we have the trust of the government and the local people behind us. We do not need the red boiler room, we do not want the red boiler room. Go to bed and come back within minutes of each other to post again on Monday.
