Europe lines up African mineral pacts to ease reliance on China | City Press
Congo is the world’s largest cobalt producer, and it vies with Peru as the second-largest producer of copper, thanks largely to a surge in Chinese investment in recent years.
The European Union (EU) is finalising partnerships with the Democratic Republic of Congo and Zambia to boost local industries as the bloc competes with China to secure critical materials for the green and digital sectors.
A planned memorandum of understanding will signal to both governments and the private sector the EU’s backing for developing local value chains given that a big part of the processing of critical materials, including lithium or cobalt, currently takes place in China, people familiar with the matter said.
The EU is aiming to diversify suppliers of key resources and counter China’s massive infrastructure investments in regions, including Africa.
The bloc has signed similar deals with Canada, Kazakhstan, Namibia, Ukraine, Argentina and Chile, and is also exploring accords with Rwanda and Uganda.
The EU plans to sign the partnerships during a forum of the Global Gateway, the EU’s €300 billion (R5.6 trillion) investment programme, in Brussels on October 25 and 26, said the people who asked not to be identified because the discussions are private. The meeting will bring together leaders from the EU, other countries and European business executives.
The talks with Congo followed a visit to Kinshasa in March by French President Emmanuel Macron and European Commissioner Thierry Breton, according to Andre Wameso, the deputy chief of staff for economic matters for Congolese President Felix Tshisekedi.
The EU wishes for a partnership for strategic primary materials, which the DRC accepted,” Wameso said in a text message. A Zambian official did not immediately reply to a request for comment.
These agreements will facilitate access to critical materials and will be part of the EU’s broader effort to develop the strategic Lobito/trans-Africa corridor, a railway project to connect Angola, the DRC and Zambia to allow for the shipping of raw materials and minerals across the Atlantic.
Congo is the world’s largest cobalt producer, and it vies with Peru as the second-largest producer of copper, thanks largely to a surge in Chinese investment in recent years. Zambia is also a key copper producer, and Western governments have been seeking to strike alliances with both countries to challenge China’s dominance in critical mineral supply chains.
Blinken deal
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken last year signed a memorandum of understanding with Congo and Zambia to explore ways to support their plan to develop an electric-vehicle value chain together.The EU and the US announced on the margins of the Group of 20 summit in New Delhi earlier this month their commitment to explore cooperation in transport infrastructure investments, trade facilitation measures, inclusive and sustainable economic growth and capital investment in the three countries of the Lobito/trans-Africa corridor.
As a first step, the EU and the US will support initial studies for the construction of the new Zambia-Lobito railway line from eastern Angola through northern Zambia.
“Our partnership will also invest in local value chains, in clean energy and in skills for the local workforce,” Ursula von der Leyen, the head of the European Commission, said in New Delhi.
“It is a whole new approach to large infrastructure investment.”

Over 565,000 shares just went as per the Green Vote. Took a while as was looking for the "Fuck You" box next to the 3 asses. Settled for "Against" in absentee. I've never voted as a Shareholder in any holding so if first time voters like me vote as Im sure many will then I expect voter participation will reach an all time high. Will say just this on X as well, under MMGA Post

I've decided to follow suit.
I just changed mine to include a vote for resolutions 3,5,6,7,8 in line with this strategy.
I would encourage everyone else to do the same.

I need this guys dealers phone number. The MoM illegally cancelled our ML at Cominiere's request with reasons unknown to the mining code in what Nigel called an 'act of the prince'. She also renewed the PR for Cominiere citing the termination of the Dathcom JVA despite the ICC emergency order. And Zijin are claiming to have approval from the ministry of mines for their JV with Cominiere and for the partition of the tenement. The MoM is the primary active enabler of Zijin's plan imo

I’m always weary of new posters on X that have all this information where it’s ‘better not to share the details’
What a cluster fuck

Thinking out loud, my thinking is aligned with captain wink‘s and obe’s comments, why would it appear like they have left the door open to these mmga fucktards?? Seems odd, are they a genuine threat? Or are they being used as smokescreen for the agm, to deflect and dilute the obvious hostility that is headed their way? lasts years agm was a farce,,, genuine questions left unanswered, condescending answers offered to serious issues and a arrogant god like “‘we got this” attitude on display,,,, where are we 12 months later??? Oh yeah vote green, just as long as resolution 1 slips through ffs, just as the long as the board get paid right through till the cash is gone right

Nigel makes it pretty clear in his February 3rd 2023 letter that the MoM is just making shit up to rat fuck Dathcom
Maybe this is all 4D chess and we will get a nice surprise from the MoM in somewhere between 2 and, checks notes, 20 weeks for some unexplained reason
But for now all I'm hearing from the MoM is let them eat pineapples

FYI. @NorthOutcast is a LTSH of AVZ, with all/most of his life-savings invested. He's best mates with Netoo Sethi. Yes, he's an optimist - a well researched & well connected optimist. Only time well tell ... and: Defeat of MMGA arses, ICSID threat, & Felix' re-election.

Well researched people provide evidence. Documents, articles of the mining code and other things of that nature. I personally think people having their life savings in something prevents them from seeing the situation objectively. It sounds like nothing but copium to me. Although what's another 20 weeks at this point lol
