The Mining Cadastre informs the public that it has just suspended the receipt of new applications for mining and quarry rights, on the instructions of Her Excellency the Minister of Mines, contained in her letter referenced CAB.MIN /MINES/ANSK/01625/01/2023 of April 26, 2023.
This suspension is effective until further notice. It should be pointed out that it does not concern requests for transformation, renewal, mortgage contracts, transfers and
farm-out of existing mining and quarry rights.
It goes without saying that the period of suspension will allow the Mining Cadastre to clean up the register, consolidating valid and active rights and making the mining area even more available to new investments, likely to confirm the geological fertility of the soil of our country. .

One would think the timing of this is not a coincidence.
- suspension of receipt of new applications on minister of mines instruction
- allow the Mining Cadastre to clean up the register, consolidating valid and active rights and making the mining area even more available to new investments
Now the 13359 suddenly changes to Cominiere just before the close down. There are many people in DRC who are working with the Chinese to steal the project. There is no doubt. The question is whether this latest move is:
- minister of mines ordering an investigation/audit etc and Cominiere/Zijin/Mupande making a last ditch attempt to switch things over before the lock down
or
- minister of mines is involved in this plan to steal the project.
I hope it is the first option, but I think this may be wishful thinking. I look at the Minister of Mines previous behaviour. She cancelled the previous decrees citing the exact complaints of Cominiere as the reason. This makes me think it is probable that she is cooperating with Cominiere and the other corrupt individuals in DRC.
Unfortunately this may take years and years to go through ICC and AVZ may have to take DRC and Zijin to ICC to recover damages.
There just seems to be very few honest, intelligent people in the DRC. CAMI/Mupande, Cominiere, Minister of Portfolio, Minister of Mines etc all seem to be working together with China to rip off AVZ and their own people.
I think there is a reason why most of Africa is incredibly poor and will likely continue to be for many more decades, despite the existence of billions of $$$ of natural resources.
Hopefully we hear something more with the AVZ announcements and/or the DRC meeting on 12/5.
