Indaba Mining 2022: The DRC Minister of Mines calls on African countries to work together to put an end to mining fraud. It invites all these countries to set up an effective control mechanism between them, based on traceability and transparency.
They talk the talk...
Has it always been the case in this forum that replies are sometimes slotted in after the original post like this?
This new @zeeb0t or something I've just missed along the way?
Easy to miss new posts is all.
Edit: No my mistake, I'm just not getting the notifications until sometimes days later it seemsbut usually they're close to real time.
I bet you are glad to be home daz, did the nurses get sick of you asking for the wifi password to check the marketAs I was handed my discharge meds I couldn't help but wonder if Zinjin had branched out into pharmaceuticals!View attachment 6776
I did read about a number of companies that held less than 51%, and yes all commenced prior to 2018. I assumed that like most legislation, licences enacted during that period would/could remain in force. My research was based on this current mining code, the pre 2018 was mostly in French and confusing. (Well it confused me)ah im using on a PC and posts come up as they do on HC on a PC
Also I think it was Helios who first brought up the 51%, maybe tag him and ask
I've been meaning to ask what the weapon of choice is usually... ironically I've just got back to the hotel with a Barossa running with bulls tempranillio myself...I've just done a catch up read through the last 6 or so pages of the thread and we seem to have turned a bit happier and more confident but for the life of me I still couldn't work out exactly why?
Feck me...
Don't know if that's because I'm really, really stupid or just because of a massively fog induced cranium from playin' a gig last night staying out well late for an idiot my age and drinking way too much Running with Bulls Tempranillo!...![]()

Have a small boutique vineyard ourselves in conjunction with the outlaws.... helped get me through covid... didn't help the fat guts...
We are getting there... have had shiraz all along, and planted some grenache last year... will probably buy the merlot to go with it but...
The Temp was the best thing on offer by the glass at the pub we played at on Saturday
I like a Temp but my goto usually is a GSM or any other interesting blend
Keen on Italian wines too....but the simple reality is whether it's white, red, or in between, straight, a blend, French, Aussie, South American, wherever and it comes in a bottle there's a pretty good chance I'll drink it, like it and find the right food to match it!
Get well mate.....relax and love life.........trust me!!!!!!!!As I was handed my discharge meds I couldn't help but wonder if Zinjin had branched out into pharmaceuticals!View attachment 6776
Sounds like too much funWe are getting there... have had shiraz all along, and planted some grenache last year... will probably buy the merlot to go with it but...
We're a grampians winery, grampians estate do a very nice GSM for the area..
Haha, yes, wine brain... went straight to the merlot... odd, seeing as I don't touch it... have grown partial to the grenache of late behind cab sav and shiraz... always used to have running with bulls before wenhad the vineyard... but, must admit, sisbt realise they had the barossa vines now either... always had the wratonbully and Langhorne creek temps previously...We are getting there... have had shiraz all along, and planted some grenache last year... will probably buy the merlot to go with it but...

Assuming that the 51% criteria is new, I agree that it would be a nightmare to be forcing old companies/JVs to restructure to conform to the new share structure. So it makes sense that if this is the case it applies only to newly-formed companies/JVs.I did read about a number of companies that held less than 51%, and yes all commenced prior to 2018. I assumed that like most legislation, licences enacted during that period would/could remain in force. My research was based on this current mining code, the pre 2018 was mostly in French and confusing. (Well it confused me)
Most of DRC law in based on Belgium's legal system. That being the case, and like AU, US, and most European countries governments won't overturn old laws that whatever operation commenced during for new laws. Australia is no different.
I am confident in my interpretation of AVZ and its current situation with reference to this mining code. Avzi must have 51% of dathcom to get ML. Legally AVz have said they currently have 75%. This will be in the ML application. I have no doubts about this.
Sorry, could not be of more help.
