Interesting. Who is this guy?

Cumquat Cap
Regular
Former US district attorney turned venture capitalist, super sharp guy but does not work for the government (although he has previously).
Married a Congolese woman and has turned out to be a handy intermediary given his interest in Congolese politics. Good guy
Imagine thinking anything to do with China and the broader belt and road initiative has no strings attached. I just can't take whoever Lars is seriously at this point.

I don't think anyone here has ever taken Lars seriously

Why didn't you post this idea here brah?
Care to elaborate on what you meant by the 'spirit of the deal'?
Does it mean Cong won't win at the ICC but will embarrassingly claim a 'moral victory' instead?
how do you know "he's getting smashed in court"? arent we still waiting for a decision on the dathomir cases?

Dathomir have lost every question before the ICC so far
And will continue to lose
The tell, apart from all of the facts, is in which party wanted the proceedings made public, that the court agreed with, and which party didn't imo

So are we now certain that the DRC government is in contravention of the interim ICSID orders? Just checked the CAMI status and nothing has changed, I'll bet my left nut Zijin is still drilling the north, working on the power station and generally not giving a rats arse about the interim orders. Hope I am wrong, it would be nice to know what is going on. 9card, AVZ, Beuler....... Anyone??
It's possible that Zijin is drilling CDL with Dathcom's 'approval' in order to get a better measure of the resource before potentially eyeballing Nigel and team across the negotiating table. I guess the key is whether Zijin is doing step-out drilling, or drilling closer to the boundaries in order to better understand the dimensions of the ore body. As much as we distrust these thieving Chinese rodents, I suspect that at some stage AVZ and Dathcom may need to negotiate with them (I cannot see a western cavalry riding in to save the day).
If Nigel's negotiating team wants to get the best price for its asset, what better way than get that pack of slimy pricks to drill it for free. It's their sunk cost, not ours.
Perhaps this is also why there is radio silence on the matter.
Just thinking out aloud.

How would this work (hypothetically)? What arrangement could possibly protect AVZ from being in competition with a hostile world mining giant with zero morals.
Not a useless point - I would imagine a lot of members desperate for a glimmer of hope. They say the darkest hour is just before the dawn!
