I can't even access the site: Forbidden 403. Maybe its not possible to register from outside Au?

Thanks for the help. I've never had the situation before where it is so important to vote.
Mikro - I am simply guessing you could try using a VPN or maybe change your browser settings and switch to Australia. I havent tried either and its just a guess.

Another thing. Article 11.1 (c) of the Dathcom JVA clearly states that any dispute among parties to the JVA must be settled by 3 arbitrators at the ICC. The fact that Zijin sought only 1 arbitrator and the ICC agreed is already an admission by Zijin and the ICC that Jin Cheng are not a party of Dathcom imo
Agreed Carlos 👍
Also a wise move on AVZ lawyers behalf to place that stipulation in the JV. Three arbitrators are far harder for a chinese influence to bribe.

Did Zijin seek only 1 arbitrator to save money? Cause they knew they were already cooked?

Is that what you're saying?

I have no idea why they wanted only 1. Most likely because they thought it would be easier to bribe 1 rather than 3. But they clearly didn't read the JVA which they claim to be part of or they would have requested 3 like AVZ did. It's a colossal fuck up on their behalf imo

Yes it would appear to be a monumental fuckup......and good pick up too by the way Carlos

Agreed on the bribery aspect too. Pretty sure when it was all announced we all wanted 3 arbitrators to try and make it harder for bribery to affect the proceedings

US says it can’t cut China out of critical minerals supply chain​

Mining Indaba: The US touts green energy as key to bridging Africa's growth gap

The US won’t be able to cut China out of the critical minerals supply chain even as Washington seeks to diversify its sources of the ingredients that go into everything from electric vehicle batteries to solar panels, a top Biden official said on Friday.

“This is not about China,” Jose Fernandez, the US under secretary for economic growth and the environment, told a briefing in New York. “We are perfectly happy to work with them on this and right now we purchase many of the minerals from Chinese companies. It’s about diversifying.”

China’s key role in the processing of raw minerals means it will remain a key US partner, Fernandez said, especially because those minerals are a crucial component for the batteries that power electric vehicles. The broader use of EVs is a central tenet of the administration’s climate change efforts.
“The world needs them to be involved — the broader picture is climate change, and we’re not going to solve the climate crisis without the involvement of the PRC,” he said, referring to the country’s formal name, the People’s Republic of China.
Fernandez leads a State Department initiative called the Minerals Security Partnership, which aims to help funnel foreign investment and western expertise into the mining sectors of developing nations that help supply key raw materials such as lithium, manganese and cobalt.
“China is the second-largest economy in the world, a major trading partner of the US,” he said. “We will continue working with them while pursuing our interests and protecting our companies and criticizing them when we feel they should be criticized.”

If the US would just cut out cominier that would work for me.

Terrifying that the article notes that they are liquidating the assets of Dathcom.
Going to be such a mess for someone to unwind and fix all the damage they have done.

Smack talk from CKK.

He is putting the DRC at risk of penalties of EU$50k per day every time he flaunts the interim injunction ruling of the ICC.

His big mouth, whilst being fueled by Zijin looters….will ultimately be pushed under the bus and end up in Makala….and be filled by some very lonely fella’s🫣

Chilla I think shareholders are giving Zijin too much credit. Kibeya is being protected by someone who has influence and mining assets in Katanga. And I’m not talking about Loando

This unholy alliance will surely have to be undone soon to prevent embarrassment at a higher level

Hard to imagine Kabila still having too much power. MoP lucky her vote’s are needed and managing to fly under the radar a little

Cong still using his money to try and usurp his way back into Dathcom and behind the three Chinese puppet nominees…. Along with his mates Jerkof, Math and Bin Guo

A few others trying to protect Kibeya and then you have the other low life’s…. tommy turd licker, boatman etc

Which conference are we talking about?
Sorry, can you be a little more specific?
The amount of recent conferences is doing more damage to my brains than 10 bottles of tequila.

We see the normal show as we are approaching the ICC hearing, there must be some nervous people running around in the DRC.
I wasn't surprised to see CKK behaving like a 2 bob watch, bloody wanker.

I noticed you were up early today cruiser,

I’m a little worried actually, if you’re able to put together half a dozen posts with no spelling errors after being on the piss all night and knowing how much you like your martini’s and the fact that you were crashed out in the casino car park with Cashy not that long ago, now you’re drinking tequilas…. Well let’s just say I’m glad you’re not you’re having trouble putting that nail polish on

I appreciated your nice comments to me last night and apologise for not catching up sooner, I have been busy you know!

Just promise me you won’t start drinking with @Xerof, that’ll surely be the end of you and I won’t get any more massages off you

Now, I have to go but I look forward as always to your excellent replies 😉
