You Correct mate.Anyone ever look back a year ago and think they'd be online arguing with people they've (mostly) never met for the next year straight about something neither of them know anything about? Sorry but just had to step that out in words as christ it seemed ridiculous at the time!
Yes, quite a bit. However no way I’m saying anything here or anywhere else until AVZ confirm all this speculation via announcements.Any wispers from your source @The Fox
Delete that lion image Cashy......we ain'tGotta admit but we are hungry & starving on the side line….

At least it's not the Northern part of our tenement as seemed to be the case previously!
Hi Dave Evans. Good to hear from you again. I know you & welcome all your input. Whilst its probs premature to single out 1 new possible JV partner to replace the Zijin & Cominere looters, i.e. lets not hype Gecamines ... there are other options. But Gecamines is state controlled & has the size, experience & relationships to help AVZ get to mining. With Zijin & Cominiere out (?) ... interesting times. Br Sparrowhawk.A few people asking questions about gecamines and others talking about cominiere and zijin being out and AVZ getting a new partner. Suppose you forgot gecamines wants a bigger share of the sicomines partnership so what’s stopping them wanting 30 or 40% of dathcom if they partnered. @Frank @Cashcity don’t think you will have to worry about MB asking more questions or giving a shit what goes on here anymore
Also on the Gecamines front - i believe CMOC has far more sway than ZJ in the red state. Their issue over TFM was basically resolved through sheer political will.
The state visit could have discussed something to a similar effect for our project. DRC keeps China on side to a degree by letting CMOC in while removing the fucking dunce CKK, and everyone gets to flip the bird to ZJ and tell em
Returned 15% to Comminiere.Zijin not part of Dathcom anymore. No bullshit, no frills, no hype, they are out - returned the 15% to Cominiere.
Waiting for documentation to this effect - but its there boys.

Edit: Preface the mining license picture, we don't have that. But wheels are turning. Just thought itd be fun to see how a license looks.
15% returned to Comminiere but class action by Zijin and Comminiere for potential loss of earnings?Great news! Any implications on the northern part?
Nige to run Gecamines tooGecamines is not squeaky clean.
Let's hope that it's not just another Cominiere.
Cheers

Just as Cominiere is in bed with Zijin Mining, Gecamines is in bed with CMOC.Nige to run Gecamines too
I'm just looking forward to a resolution to this shit show.

After the Chinese company, Xiang Jiang Mining SARL exploiting gold in the province of Tshopo, the Congolese government has just sanctioned the joint venture between the group Eurasian Resources Group (ERG) of Kazakistan and Gécamines , Boss Mining which operates copper and cobalt concentrates in KAKANDA, in the District of LUBUDI 60 km from the town of LIKASI, suspending all activities of the group for a period of 3 months.
The reason for this suspension would be, according to the communiqué of the Ministry of Mines of the DR Congo, the environmental pollution of Boss Mining, this decision could be renewed if no positive modification is made by the group in the improvement of the protection environmental.
Antoinette Nsamba Kalambayi , Minister of Mines of the DR Congo, with this gesture wants to confirm the end of the impunity of the big polluters of the environment on the mining zones of the country, workhorse of her administration.
In the letter from the Minister of Mines to Boss Mining dated May 29, 2023, the Minister had informed the Director General of the now suspended Boss Mining in these terms:
“I learned through my services of the succession of incidents that occurred on your site respectively on the night of March 21 to 22 and April 9 of the current year, having caused enormous environmental damage but also losses in human lives; this situation could have been avoided or at least mitigated if, before resuming your activities in November 2022, you had taken care to audit your site environmental management system, with a view to adapting it to current conditions and include all these changes in an updated environmental plan.
Furthermore, I note that you are operating illegally, since your environmental and social impact study is no longer valid and you have accumulated numerous breaches of environmental obligations, which directly endanger the life and health of several people. .
This is why, pursuant to Article 570, paragraph 2 of the Mining Regulations, I am suspending all your mining activities for a period of three months, with the possibility of renewal of this measure, as long as you have not carried out the recommendations sent to you by the Director-Head of the Mining Environmental Protection Service, through his letter referenced 201/DPEM/2023 of 12 msi 2023.
To do this, I instruct the Head of the Provincial Division of Mines of Lualaba, who read me a copy, to strictly enforce this decision and also request the involvement of the Provincial Governor in this regard.
The Secretary General for Mines is invited to take all the necessary measures to repair the damage suffered by the communities following these incidents. »

Excuse my pessimistic post but are we really thinking that C and Z have been removed. When and in what government setting would this decision have been made? Any speck of info appreciated. Come on 9card give us hint.
