AVZ Discussion 2022

The process of elimination begins…

And then there is this....

Dance Floors​

Kinetic tiles installed on dance floors use movement dancers generate to create electricity which then powers lighting or other electrical systems within buildings.

While these unconventional sources may seem strange at first glance, they offer us opportunities for creativity and innovation in developing sustainable solutions for our energy needs.


Would dancing generate enough power to keep the Marshall towers and lightshow going?
If not a backup of a couple of bags of potatoes could help out....

Potatoes​

Potatoes have been a power source since the 1800s when they were first used to power telegraphs. A potato battery creates electricity through two metal electrodes inserted into the potato and connected with wires and a light bulb or motor. Although potatoes cannot generate enough electricity to power large-scale applications, they still have potential for small-scale applications such as emergency lighting.

And if all fails we ask Tommy to help out, he is full of it......

Human Waste aka Plain Shit​

Human waste is another surprising source of renewable energy that can be converted into biogas through anaerobic digestion. Sewage treatment plants can capture methane gas produced during this process and use it to generate electricity or heat buildings.

Alternatives, the mind boggles...
And if we have some spare energy we store it in a lithium battery.

Or Tommy's shit captured in an AVZ lithium battery, they will need a big one for that purpose.
It is GT time.

“...and placed under the authority of the minister having mines in his attribution…”.

So no statutory independence - they’ll be taking their riding instructions from the very people that need this level of oversight and investigation. You couldn’t even make this up.

Alternatively, it‘s another ticking time bomb. “Right, you fuckers. No more mining leases until we figure out what’s going on”. Two years later…. Or am i being paranoid now?

@Mr Inappropriate and @Spikerama

I’m after your opinions fella’s. I’ve got a fair bit of media saved on how corrupt the DRC is…. and given Tshisekedi, Lukonde, N’samba have all known about the corruption for over a year now and haven’t done anything about it and the DRC Mining Week is coming up in June, I’m thinking of putting all of it out there ahead of the event highlighting how corrupt the DRC is, any thoughts?

Haven’t seen any sign of the government helping us out and apart from Marius posting a few replies, all I’m reading is now the govt knows how big our project is they want to take back more for themselves

Sick of their corruption on top of Zijin’s but at least from what I read they can’t take it off us

👊💥😵‍💫

Lay it all on the line I say MB. Go for it, post everything in a methodical manner, so it’s not lost if posted all at once.

It’s a good question, MB. A few weeks back we were told to lay off the attacks on DRC public officials, presumably because the messages were cutting close to the bone. On the (untested) assumption the Uncle Nige would like things to continue that way, my thinking is that we should go hard at Z, plus any other “non-state actors” that warrant attention.

In other words, rather than going after government officials, i’d be inclined at this time to go after those entities that create the opportunity for corruption to exist and initiate corrupt dealings (jeez, that sounded like something from Hollow Men but hopefully you get my drift). I’ll share more via PM.

To the direct question about laying it all on the line leading into mining week, i‘m torn, but probably erring on the side of pointing out the circumstances rather than naming officials. I’d reach out to AVZ directly on that one and ask how upset they’d be if you went ahead…

I know he has a big following but seriously, how many wrong calls do you get & still retain credibility? Wait a minute, I'll just ask Nigel....

I am with you on all those false calls he has made, hence “ believe what you want from his post” disclaimer.

With Jens playing the same tune so I questioned him instead. Let’s see what he has to add. Again, what Jens says wont change anything either, unless it’s backed by ASX’s announcement.

Hi Red, don't get me wrong, I wasn't having a go at you.

I'm just sick of these people who are apparently "in the know" predicting the outcome & being completely wrong every time.

It'll be interesting to see how Jens responds & what comes out of the ICC.

#RDC Several well-designed projects and programs that raised a lot of hope failed because we had underestimated the entrenchment of corruption in public management. Economic growth becomes a mere slogan apart from GOOD GOVERNANCE.

I agree

Bring on the official announcements from AVZ or findings from relevant courts, arbitrations and authorities

That's what we need

@Misfits

The Ides of March has come and gone…. Methodical May is perfect timing

No need to directly blame those politicians mentioned, there is more than enough evidence to show international investors corruption in the DRC is as bad as it was under Kabila

It’s up to Tshisekedi, Lukonde, N’samba, Kazadi, Paluku etc to prove that the DRC isn’t corrupt and that it’s a safe place to invest

This post from Sam (below) shows Jules Alingete is the only one who’s not corrupt…. The only thing I would disagree with Jules’ comments is he could have said ‘colluded with’ rather than ‘underestimated’
