AVZ Discussion 2022

[Flight996]

Silly ? maybe, but given the corrupt practices of the Chinese through this entire s..t show to take control of 13359, then why wouldn't the Chinese overlords simply just provide coin to the DRC defence if it assists in keeping AVZ on the ropes?

That's a very good question.

My scenario was based on the DRC not paying its dues, which is the sort of trick those corrupt pricks would pull. It's what they do. It's in their DNA.

However, suspension may be for an entirely different reason...maybe the DRC has thrown a curve-ball of some sort, or AVZ missed a progress payment, or negotiations are taking place on the sidelines. I just don't know, but I am hopeful negotiations are taking place.

Unfortunately, I am in an information vacuum just like everyone else, and would like clarification from management just like everyone else.

Cheers

Because instead of keeping us on the ropes, I assume they think they can deliver a knockout blow and terminate the ICSID proceedings if we dont have the funds to cover both sides' payment, after which we can just be ignored. And even if we do cobble together the money to continue the proceedings it's one step closer to exhausting our financial resources and forcing us into administration. After which they can also ignore us.

Seems likely that this is just another part of their existing strategy to bleed us into financial submission.

Locke litigation funding becoming ever more important IMO.

Good points flight, especially if they were in some sort of negotiations (I'm not saying they are as i'm just a pleb here like everyone else) but i'm not ready to throw either DEBOSS (who i once meet a few years ago at a melb m&g) or Geo under the bus at this stage, as i'm sure they are % for SH, where as NF seems to show way less rgd for those that have significant investment tied up in AVZ, who have allowed him to stay in his lucrative role & trusted him with the responsibility to look out for their interests with integrity.

I like the fact however that his (NF) balls are also on the line with the rest of us, with his 51mil ps and generous remuneration or not.

Regarding the speculation of why Deboss has stood down so early in his role as SH advocate, I'd rather ask him at the agm (if i attend), which as he says he will be in attendance than jump to conclusions here as many are.

I'm presently o/b WA, if it's convenient for me I will attend the AGM. Hopefully NF has got the message.... we SH (who own a fair chunk of this company) expect ? to be asked and answered.
This isn't !!!!!

AVZ need to pay Locke $200k if Locke walks .

Would this show up in the Annual / Quarterly report if Locke has walked . Conversely if it doesn't show up does it tell us Locke are still in the game ?

Could one of these reasons be why the Reports are slow coming . Just a thought .

Could it also be Locke have ok'd the funds , but AVZ are yet to lock on pending results of 'exciting development behind the scenes ?' Locke securing a
$1 mil break free from AVZ for their effort .

Something smells imminent .

the fact we haven't had serious contacts re raising cash is a sign to me that locke are still in it... even "if" a deal was close, i dont think management would hold a dire cash position on the chance of DRC honouring a deal... they'd want some access to back-up cash... or should, based on DRC form to date.

AGM...

Should have gone last year

Can't be fucked this year.............

Just keeps getting better. Next they will be fully engaged in a conflict with Rwanda

 

[Hodlandwin69]

There's also the chance that DRC (or even AVZ) have missed a payment because deal done or very close to being done (within the 30 days to pay period) so why pay it.
Probs not the case but copium

Nothing wrong with having hope mate, I can think of a number of reasons why one or both parties might have missed a payment

I hope not.

I'd want to have ICC and ICSID cases not actually dropped until we have cash from any settlement in our account and/or mining rights locked up so tight even the DRC couldn't renege.

Otherwise the DRC will backtrack as soon as they are dropped, and we are back to square one. They've shown they can't be trusted with any agreement, signed or not.

Would be good to ensure any settlement included enough cash to us for enable us to survive and fund further proceedings again if necessary.

Anyone know if these guys are a reliable source .

"The legal dispute over the Manono lithium project, one of the world’s largest lithium deposits, has taken another turn. According to reliable sources at the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID), the arbitration proceedings initiated by Australian mining company AVZ Minerals and its affiliates against the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) have been suspended. This decision follows AVZ’s failure to pay the arbitration fees within the set time limit. If AVZ fails to pay the fees within 90 days, the proceedings will be permanently terminated."

Of course there’s a chance both parties have delayed paying the fees Wombat and for different reasons. AVZ has been working on Locke’s litigation funding and the fact they haven’t announced the details of the deal yet means there’s a lot things they have to take into account.

DLA Piper is one of the top law firms in the world, they have stood by us from the beginning and are no doubt involved in the Locke funding arrangements and part of that I imagine would be making sure they get paid.

As always, people here jump to conclusions and you’ve got the negative posters continually posting comments that undermine all the work AVZ has done so far in fighting the corruption.

Mate I’m just glad I’m not going to war with some of those posters with their negative undertones. I know you’re one who has been looking for answers, all I can say is I personally am backing DLA Piper to get us through the Locke funding and the litigation against the corrupt actors and I’m not surprised that it’s being kept confidential

Wait a second. They are suggesting a company who said they were getting a mining license then didn’t, said that claims of ownership that sunk them and put them into trading halt were false, lost control of their camp and cores after doing core drilling while in suspension. Paid their CEO a 100k bonus for halfing the share price then locking up the money. Lost 20million in some kind of escrow rorte, failed to inform shareholders of anything including the loss of permits and faith of DRC government. They are suggesting that this company failed to pay its relevant fees to a court who’s purpose is to cover the ass of the board so they can take their/our millions and ride off into the sunset. They are suggesting this?? No this must be fake news. The guy to listen to here is the bloke posting memes of soft core porn on X . Definitely!!

[BEISHA]

Who is making the trek to Perth for the AGM? Is it worth going? Will we be able to ask questions and get answers or same as last year?
I don't really feel like spending more time & $$$ for little information and just the 2 resolutions of electing Directors.

I will be. I have lots of questions to ask, including this latest ICSID bombshell news which should be of been announced on the AVZ website along with DEBOSS quitting his role.

BTW, AVZ bod should be a skeleton crew so i see no reason why BRANS & SDS need to be re elected.

Its time for answers and clarity.

Longs deserve to know.

imo

Its just outrageous to think that AVZ need to pay our enemies legal fees just to stay the course.

Paying the DRC's ICSID fee to win $10 Billion in compensation is what I would call a good investment .

 

[Hudnut]

Hopefully the DRC has decided paying ICSID fees to still lose $10B is not a good investment and perhaps a settlement is called for.
More Hopium.
