That's BS imo .
That's BS imo .
Thanks Micky, but all credit should go to @Sammael who is often up till 3am in the morning researching the DRC, Felix and our company and sharing his findings with me.
He has been a huge factor in a lot of the information I come out with
And I think it's good that not ALL information discovered, or whispered privately should be posted here. It's an open forum, and it's full of non-posting Kunts who want to know what we know.
Those Kunts know who they are - slime ball Kunts, who feed it back onto Twitter or directly to that other cesspit of corrupt rat fuckers
If you have really good info, share it via DM with those you trust
Arsehole (trustworthy, BTW)
That IS exactly what they want. Or at least it’s part of their grand plan. Plan A) Steal it, Plan B) Fuck with it in every conceivable way to make them (us!) fail. It’s then there for the taking. The elements of this strategy are now out in the open for all to see.Mate I seriously want to know what all the staff are doing day in day out to earn these mammoth wages.
The 10mt study is done
The tenders for the build are done
All environmentals, transports etc are done.
Most of the building of accommodation on-site seem to be done or getting close to it
Sure there’s some back ground works to be done but AVZ were ready for ML over a year ago.
The extra drilling should be done, not sure why we haven’t heard further results from that.
Ben I can understand, he busy answering yours and wombats emails with the generic ‘we doing the best we can‘ reply but the rest?
They going to blow through the cash we have with drilling and wages and we hearing f’all, maybe that’s exactly what the Chinese want….
Cheers, MB, and @sammuel. Thanks for the effort you guysThanks Micky, but all credit should go to @Sammael who is often up till 3am in the morning researching the DRC, Felix and our company and sharing his findings with me.
He has been a huge factor in a lot of the information I come out with
Because they are life style directors and ĺazy.Wow great article Retro! Not sure why it should be up to a random poster on Tse to inform us of this(no offence)! Why isn't AVZ smashing this out on every possible media outlet not the least to us information hungry share holders. FMD!
You're right, it's would much easier to find the info on social media but I gave up on twitter ages ago. There were too many fuckwits and nutjobs on there.I mentioned social media because AVZ has got their official twitter account, and it's much easier to notify SHs/public by click of a button about their announcements and attaching a link of their webpage for further details. Its (social media) more convenient for us SHs, than going to AVZ's website everyday to see if they have uploaded a new content.
Axle is the dumbest hyena of them all

That’s thats the kind of well-reasoned logic and value-adding discourse I’m looking for. What a gutless A-Grade fuckwit.Why don't you debate the issues here rather than lurking and posting disinformation on Twitter?
We all know why you don't lol

Also to the member who claims "you can't just get a meeting with a countries prime minister!! How long do you think it would take Twiggy to get a meeting with Albo if he new there was hundreds of millions in tax and royalties on the line. If The president is too busy to meet with the MD of AVZ he is surely suffering delusions of grandeur. Enough from me now, have a great Sunday all.
Anyone know who the bloke on the left is?

Participants in the workshop organized by the mining company AVZ, partner of Dathcom Mining, in Manono.
The workshop on the Manono Jana, Manono kesho project was held on Friday, January 6, 2023, in the parish hall of Saint Barbara's Cathedral in the territory of Manono, in the province of Tanganyika.

From the outset, the president of the Katangese youth and notable of this area, José Kabulo, invited the young people of Manono to take ownership of the said project.
For his part, the coordinator of the new civil society in Manono, Valéry Kumwimba wa Mwamba described the lithium production project by Avz as the hope of an entire people.
In the process, Valéry Kumwimba pleads for the personal involvement of the Head of State Félix Antoine Tshisekedi Tshilombo to settle the situation
For his part, the Administrative Director of Dathcom Mining, Balthazar Tshiseke reassured that Manono will experience its development thanks in particular to the lithium project with AVZ and Dathcom Mining.
And to add:
It should be noted that at the end of this workshop, several recommendations were reformulated by the participants in these meetings, including the drafting of the application for an operating permit which will be signed by all the stakeholders, the
constitution of a strong delegation that will travel to Kinshasa to lobby the authorities.

Mr. Michael Hughes
It says in the 2020 AVZ Annual report:
In October 2019, Mr. Michael Hughes was appointed as Project Director for the Manono Project.
Mr. Hughes has more than 35 years’ experience in Engineering, Procurement and Construction in the minerals and metals market, having worked for both engineering companies and clients to execute studies and projects.
His experience covers all metals and minerals commodities plant design and construction in Africa, India, France and Australia. He has also worked in many African countries, including Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Botswana, Madagascar and Ethiopia.
When I saw him last time, he looked substantially greyer than in the above photo.
However looks can be deceiving, don't know who it is, but I don't think it is Michael.

DRC President Criticizes The Delay Of The Grand Inga project
The Grand Inga project has hit a roadblock despite the signing of a memorandum of understanding in September 2020 with Fortescue Metals Group Ltd. to develop what could be the largest hydroelectric project in the world.
President Felix Tshisekedi expressed his disappointment with the situation during an interview with Bloomberg on January 19th, 2023, at the World Economic Forum in Davos.
He believes that in order to move forward, Fortescue should bring in other investors, particularly from Africa, and potentially scale back their ambitions to accelerate the project’s development.
“We are not on the same wavelength,” said President Felix Tshisekedi.
“We want to create an opportunity that brings together various interests, particularly those of Africa. We are open to all discussions and meetings.”
He added that he met with Fortescue’s President, Andrew Forrest, during his visit to Davos to continue the discussions.
Challenges of the Mega Project
Fortescue Future Industries Ltd. plans to harness the energy from Inga, which could potentially be twice as powerful as China’s Three Gorges project, to produce green hydrogen and green ammonia for the Democratic Republic of Congo.
According to estimates, the Grand Inga project aims to produce 10 million tons of green hydrogen annually.
The project is also expected to create over 100,000 direct jobs and up to 500,000 indirect jobs.
Additionally, a fund called “Inga Fund” will be established, which will receive 5% of the investments made for the Grand Inga project.
The project will also help to bring electricity to rural and peri-urban areas, in line with the Democratic Republic of Congo’s Industrialization Master Plan.
However, the project is currently facing delays due to disagreements within the Presidency and Government, according to sources familiar with the matter.
Despite the support of the Head of State and former Special Adviser Kayembe, Fortescue is reportedly facing various administrative challenges.

What then blocks the Grand Inga project?
According to concordant sources close to this file, the blocking would come from the disagreements in the Presidency as well as in the Government. This would be the basis of the slowdown in the execution phase of the studies.
Fortescue is experiencing several administrative difficulties despite the support of the Head of State and Special Adviser Kayembe when he was still on duty.

The Court of Auditors will soon organize its first hearings to judge mismanagement
The Court of Auditors will, for the first time in its history, soon organize its first hearings to judge mismanagement. The first president of this Court, Djimmy Munganga, said so on Friday January 20 during an open day organized at the Congo River Hotel, for lack of space in his offices.
According to him, his institution has all the means of its policy to carry out its missions.
In a presentation made to civil society, followed by a debate, he explained the missions of his institution, namely judicial control including the judgment of de facto management, judgment of mismanagement and judgment of the accounts of senior public accountants. assignee's of income or expenditure.
Clearly, its mission is to carry out, independently, an ex post external control of the finances of the State and its dismemberments as well as of the bodies, public companies and other entities benefiting from the financial assistance of the State.
It makes a judgment on the regularity of the financial statements and the accounts of public accountants according to a contradictory approach and in accordance with generally recognized standards.
The Court of Auditors contributes through its verification and compliance control missions to the improvement of financial governance and compliance with the principles of accountability.
It submits to the President of the Republic, to Parliament and to the Government a report accompanied by recommendations on the results of its work.
The Court also exercises extra-judicial control in the same way as the IGF.
Without the power to arrest or imprison the alleged culprit of mismanagement, the Court imposes fines on the accused and orders the confiscation of twice his gross annual salary.

Félix Tshisekedi calls on the Government to accelerate the implementation of the development program for the 145 territories
The President of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi, during the 83rd meeting of the Council of Ministers which he chaired by video conference on Friday January 21, 2023, reminded the members of the Government of his determination to see the people Congolese to note during this year 2023, an acceleration of the implementation of the local development program of the 145 territories of the country.
Based on the promulgation of Ordinance No. 23/003 of January 22, 2023, on the creation, organization and functioning of the institutional framework for the implementation of the monitoring and evaluation of the local development program of the 145 territories, Félix Tshisekedi finds that "nothing should prevent the implementation of this program which will bring a solution to several problems of the Congolese", notes the report of the Council of Ministers made by the spokesman of the Government, Patrick Muyaya.
Insisting on the "priority" nature of this program that he initiated, Félix Tshisekedi urged all the stakeholders, including the executing agencies on the one hand and the Government on the other, "to avoid heaviness and other administrative procedures that negatively impact the implementation of the said programme”.
According to the Council of Ministers, "everything should be put in place by the steering committee to achieve the expected results as soon as possible".
Estimated at 1.6 billion US dollars, the local development program of 145 territories of the country should, among other things, allow the construction and rehabilitation of road, school and health infrastructures.
