Yeah exactly. Zijin (through Jin Cheng) are on the RCCM so technically they are in Dathcom but our entire jurisdictional challenge to the case brought by Zijin at the ICC is that we don't need to recognise them in Dathcom because they obtained the 15% in violation of our pre-emptive rights using bribes and ripping off the DRC people to the tune of $120m USD as proven in the IGF report. Just seems careless for him to phrase it that way imo
Roger that. Thanks. Sloppy indeed.

The significance of the new cami management and this news article are HUGE! Don't forget cami (jfm) were the ones to block us by not letting us pay the surface fees to then be awarded the mining license. Up until the cami nonsense we had ticked all the boxes.

The house of corrupt cards has fallen and avz have come up Trump's by sticking through all the bullshit.

I'm not celebrating yet but this is a fair old sign we are going mining IMO.

Once we get through this the updated jorc resource and a bfs to accompany it will blow any other miner out of the water.
Good to see a smart cookie back on this forum.....;)

The CAMI running sheet for meetings after AVZ would be an interesting read. I wonder if a particular Chinese mining company gets a time slot!!

Alright let me tone it down a bit. If not official announcement from AVZ, then some reasonably good news to come out of DRC today.

Geo stop giving secrets away to that Western Australian lithium troll over on hotcrapper (Lithium_King)

We are now at the final stages of obtaining a mining licence. The trolls are out to cause as much uncertainty and havoc as possible.
A lot of genuine investors on hotcrapper are doing it tough in this current economic environment with interest rates, rents, utilities and general living expenses rising well above inflation. I sense the hopelessness many are feeling brought on by the trolls. When all hope is lost some feel there is no way out but to end it all and some do. Offering hope to those in genuine need is the right thing to do to ease their suffering. Nothing I said breaches the trust placed upon me and much is already in the public domain and I don't do it to be popular or for thumbs up. That is my rational.

BTW, if you could only see the harm suicides cause to those left behind you would see things differently.

Have a nice weekend.

That’s fucking super, but it’s missing a few names…
  • The Green Witch
  • Jean-Claude Van Damme
  • Old Mate Portfolio
While we‘re at it, can we wire through to the state department the following for permanent bans and sanctions?
  • Vile kunt Lars
  • Ol’ Jerkhoff
  • Old mate, T-bag and his spooning buddy boatman.
  • Axle
  • The person that wrote the #FuckZijin ethics policy (it’s a cracking read)
  • Anyone else who works for #FuckZijin.
Hit ‘em hard, yankee man.

US State Department Sanctions Three Congolese Officials for Trafficking Protected Animals to China​

August 18, 2023
Kiki Kienge


By Kiki Kienge
It is within the framework of the fight against corruption and for the protection of nature, in particular through agreements signed by the Democratic Republic of Congo with the United States and other international organizations, that the Department of State of the United States United through his spokesperson, Matthew Miller has decided to sanction three Congolese officials from the Congolese Institute for Nature Conservation (ICCN).
These three officials are accused of abusing their functions to illegally sell endangered species, such as Okapis, gorillas, chimpanzees and others, often falsifying documents for their export to China.
The Congolese were and this for years, at the center of an ecological Chinese mafia, which by bribing already badly paid civil servants and who notably have months of arrears of their salaries finds fertile ground for its shenanigans.
These people, including two of their wives, are ineligible to enter the United States.
U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT RELEASE
The United States designates the following individuals as generally ineligible for entry into the United States, due to their involvement in significant corruption:
  • Cosma Wilungula Balongelwa , former Director General of the Congolese Institute for Nature Conservation (ICCN);
  • Leonard Muamba Kanda , former Head of Department of the DRC Management Authority for the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) and Director of ICCN;
  • and Augustin Ngumbi Amuri , Director-Coordinator of the CITES Management Authority of the DRC and Legal Advisor to ICCN.
As officials responsible for wildlife protection, they abused their public duties by trafficking chimpanzees, gorillas, okapis and other protected wildlife species from the DRC, primarily to the People's Republic of China, using falsified permits, in exchange for bribes. Their corrupt transnational criminal actions have not only undermined the rule of law and government transparency in the DRC, but also longstanding wildlife conservation efforts.
Today's action demonstrates that the United States stands with those in the DRC working to disrupt wildlife trafficking and promote accountability for corrupt officials and transnational criminals. These designations also reaffirm the United States' commitment to fighting corruption, which harms the public interest, hinders the economic prosperity of countries, and limits the ability of governments to effectively meet the needs of their people.
These public designations are made pursuant to Section 7031(c) of the Department of State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs Appropriations Act of 2023. The Ministry also designates Kanda's wife, Rose Nsele Ngokali and Wilungula's wife, Esther Mwanga Wilungula , as generally ineligible for entry into the United States.
