Possible, but crikey if he needs to see a cheque to realise AVZ aren't mucking around after us single-handedly getting Manono to the stage it is now after spending $100mil+ on developing it he is a bigger muppet than I take him for on evidence to date.
It's interesting that titan64's previous 2 posts (prior to the current one) were moderated.
What? Just give CDL to them, it is legally ours and only after $100m of R & D do they come to steal it! Naah! They would offer us a fraction of it's value!
I said in one of my first posts here that I want to hold until dividends but if we are being played then I am open to a takeover. You will be hard pressed to find someone as optimistic as me about the DRC government. I think I've done the lion's share of preventing this forum from turning into a daily 2 minutes of hate against Felix in recent months.
Basically what I've been saying as well . If Felix doesn't act then it's Plan B . We don't have until the end of the year .I was told the decision on the ML is close . Not the ML , but a 'Decision' on the ML . Now I would say if the necessary changes are not made within the DRC gov in the very near future then that in of itself is a Decision not to award the ML .
Hands off Africa but let my churches and priests get their hands right up your....
Agreed mate you have done more than your fair share on this forum against turning it into a HC-fest
Sell to Ivanhoe (that's a terrible name, its like a dodgy 90's Russian Rappers name isn't really I've-an-ho), anyway yes that would be more palatable that selling to the shit that wallows in the depths of the scummiest pond known as Zijin.Ivanhoe Mines already have a working relationship with Zijin in the DRC . Plan B ?

With the TO talk- At this stage $10 is ludicrous, not in the future though, like tomorrow.
90 cents TO talk is equally as ludicrous as $10, infact arguably more ludicrous the way things stand and are looking from the outside with all the facts and movements considered.
I was just replying to say thanks for your input, greatly appreciate it.
At the start I had suspicions that you were one of Der Giests many characters, but couldn't give a shit now if you are, you're my fav character.
I know people like to be negative but come on, In an EV & ESS revolution.
"90 cents TO talk is equally as ludicrous as $10, infact arguably more ludicrous the way things stand and are looking from the outside with all the facts and movements considered."
I.E
We hold a good position, a reshuffle of ministers ANNOUNCED so on its way(slowly I know), Felix stance on corruption ANNOUNCED many times, IGF Jules talking about Cominieres crimes via corruption, IFG report, Our advisors over there having got through to Felix (final assult), We have ML Decree, all signs are essentially pointing to ML being given to US. All signs with ICC are greatly in favour of US. Therefore 90cents TO being accepted by BOD with ML on its way, likelihood........next to fuck all.
Likelihood of us building a mine, expanding, PLS, JV in Hydroxide plant, expand again into CDL, JV in battery plant possibly, left field anns, being the boss at the top of the pile at a time lithium is roaring --- likelihood of $35b,
I'm no expert but I can tell you a lot likelier than 90c - "The way we stand, with all the facts and movements considered"
Also, we have the $50mil credit facility that it looks like we will be using. So much much longer cash burn than a year, the drilling will be done and cash burn down before then too.
Major national elections? Why does this automatically mean Felix is out ?
The yanks are behind Felix, so are the Catholics, so are many others. Only the crooks that Kabila fed are behind him, and if you haven't noticed they are being thrown out of cabinets and also thrown into jail.
We will get the ML, we have the $$ to wait it out until the ICC decisions that will obviously be in our favour so at this point, sooner or later we will go mining.
Well said mate . I have no doubt Nigel will pull the rip cord on our safety parachute if nothing changes in the coming months . 50 million shares x 80c/ $1 / $1.50 is still a lot of money for him and better than sh1t sandwich for the AVZ team and SH . We can hope it's above ATH SP at least . IMOWe weren't talking about being worth 35 billion in 5 or 10yrs should we build a mine, expand, get a JV in a Hydroxide plant, expand again into CDL, JV in battery plant possibly and be the boss at the top of the pile at a time lithium is roaring. We were talking about a 35B takeover, you know as opposed to one for 90c or whatever if the Chinese manage to grind us down in the the case that the ML doesnt appear on the way. Sure the board wouldn't look at that now, but 1.5$ or so if things don't play out the way we hope and things could be different...
And maybe you're seeing things I'm not but let's have a look at your points there showing all the signs being pointed to us receiving our ML
We hold a good position - well we've held the same good position for the some time with no ostensible change in our circumstances
a reshuffle of ministers ANNOUNCED so on its way(slowly I know) - it would be good to see the green mamba go for sure if that doesn't turn out to be the case. Its not occured yet. But is she the main sticking point in any case? This isn't a shuffle of departments that would oust old mate JPW, for the third time anyway, who management essentially admitted was the roadblock
Felix stance on corruption ANNOUNCED many times - yes and what's come of that? Several high profile court cases when unavoidable, with them either being freed or declared not guilty. Might see a more of a push on this front as voting approaches for optics though perhaps
IGF Jules talking about Cominieres crimes via corruption - yes this is good. If only IGF had powers to prosecute rather than just send a report in to a corrupt judiciary
Our advisors over there having got through to Felix (final assult) - really? Sure our MD said he backs us now after previous disinformation but have we seen anything to suggest he does indeed support us? Nada
We have ML Decree - yes a Decree that enshrines the illegal split of our tenement, and the release of which began our 10 month suspension several days after
where are all the signs you stated that are essentially pointing to ML being given?
"Major national elections? Why does this automatically mean Felix is out ?" - where did I say it did? But any election is a risk factor, especially when corruption is so rife. Wouldn't only be them too, Chinese would prefer Kabila also. Honestly though I think FT will win, I'm just suggesting we wouldn't particularly want to be without a ML and several of our ICC cases yet to be wrapped up whilst going into something which could plausibly go another way than we would like.
I still feel we will get the ML, and likely in the not too distant future, but I think a TO attempt is in the makings in the meantime. I think in 6 months time if we haven't ironed out our issues such a circumstance may begin to look more appealing, and that a realistic figure would be more likely.
Apolgies for the response anyway, i just don't like someone facepalming me for not accepting their always positive viewpoint, and suggest someones a negative fool for thinking a 35b takeover was less likely "The ways things stand" than one at 5b or so.
Let's be balanced
Viva la ML so we can put all this shit to bed
