what are we expecting in terms of timelines? is felix in the US this weekend and so the peace deal and hence mineral deal is going to be signed this weekend? hopefully that means also details on avz to be announced at the same time or shortly after.

The 15 th and 16th were the days mentioned in the published timeline for the signing of the peace agreement between DRC and Rawanda followed immediately by the seperate minerals agreements individually for DRC and Rawanda . Hopefully this then triggers the AVZ/Kobold sale agreement and we have an announcement on or before Fri 20th. The 23 rd is the the day nominated for recommencement of ICSID.
Fingers crossed !

" ... Peace deal negotiations between DRC and Rwanda. On May 21, President Trump announced that his Administration is close to successfully brokering a peace deal between the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Rwanda. The President said that his Senior Advisor for Africa, Massad Boulos, had been instrumental to the negotiations. In March, we reported that DRC President Felix Tshisekedi had written to the President offering the US access to DRC’s critical minerals in exchange for military help against Rwandan M23 rebels. In April, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that the DRC and Rwanda had signed a pledge in Washington, DC to work toward a peace agreement. A peace deal brokered by the US could potentially give the US far greater access to DRC’s vast mineral wealth. The DRC is the world’s leading exporter of cobalt and a major exporter of coltan, copper, gold, tin, tungsten, and tantalum. Its untapped mineral wealth is estimated to be worth trillions of dollars. ..."

Completely different country.

I'm an idiot - deleted. Thought Republic of Congo was Democratic Republic. (Usually when I see it referred to it's just 'Congo')

Ah yes, little more than the usual Chinese window dressing and virtue-signalling by a subsidiary of Zijin Mining whose environmental track record is a pattern of neglect and indifference. When Zijin talks about sustainability in its reports, it actually means sustainability of profits regardless of the damage caused by its operations.

Building a couple of schools does not absolve that odious company of its environmental and social obligations.

Hold my beer.

That curriculum may need to be revised soon. Word is that Xi is on the way out...

Everything will be sorted by end of the month. Money will take a bit longer

Are you basing this simply on the peace deal and minerals for security deal proposed timing or are you aware of some additional information?

Just received an email from DRC battery metals forum asking my own company to sponsor them

Making it sound again like it’s done.

We are writing to you from the DRC-Africa Battery Metals Forum, taking place from September 29-30, 2025, in Kolwezi, Democratic Republic of Congo. As you may be aware from the recent news regarding KoBold Metals' significant investment in the Manono lithium project, the DRC is rapidly solidifying its position as a global epicentre for critical battery metals.

DRC: The Powerhouse Fueling the Global Energy Revolution

The Democratic Republic of Congo holds approximately 70% of the world's cobalt reserves and significant copper deposits, with emerging lithium potential gaining global attention. The recent acquisition by KoBold Metals, backed by visionary investors like Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos, underscores the immense, strategic importance of the DRC in securing the future of the global energy transition.

This investment signals a clear intent to accelerate the development of these vital resources and bring them to Western markets!

Before he does exit the stage, I’m tipping that he’ll go down swinging with one those good ol’ fashioned purges (with Chinese characteristics)

wino's message has been deleted

cant wait for this to be over, this forum has been so severely compromised its basically unusable at this point

Is there alternatives? The fb group has one bloke who posts good stuff but can’t comment on the rest of the weirdos on it. It gets weird there.
