*In other News, I see where,
Analysts suggest the DRC could leverage this opportunity to expand its influence and meet rising international demand.
With a production plant launched in Lubumbashi in 2023, the DRC is targeting an annual output of 30 tonnes of germanium.
State-owned mining company Gécamines is driving this initiative, aspiring to position the DRC as a viable alternative to China in the germanium market.
The Chinese export ban, announced on December 3, 2024, also includes gallium and is seen as a response to U.S. restrictions on technology sales to Beijing.
This geopolitical move has opened avenues for the DRC to challenge China’s dominance over the supply of germanium.
Germanium, used in semiconductors, fiber optics, and military applications, is a critical resource for technology industries.
As global demand increases, the DRC’s emerging production capabilities could attract significant interest, particularly from nations affected by the Chinese export restrictions.
The DRC’s potential to fill this supply gap highlights the need for robust strategies to manage production, negotiate favorable trade agreements, and solidify its standing in the global market.
China’s decision to restrict exports underscores the growing importance of securing diversified sources for critical minerals.
The DRC, already a major player in the mining sector, is now well-positioned to capitalize on this evolving dynamic and strengthen its role as a key supplier of germanium to the global market.

DRC Poised to Capitalize on Germanium Market Amid China’s Export Ban
China’s recent ban on exporting germanium to the United States has positioned the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) as a potential key player in the global market for this critical metal.Analysts suggest the DRC could leverage this opportunity to expand its influence and meet rising international demand.

US President Joe Biden Announces $560 Million Funding for Lobito Trans-African Corridor
On Wednesday, December 4, 2024, US President Joe Biden unveiled more than $560 million in funding for the Lobito Trans-African Corridor, during a meeting in Lobito with Angolan President João Lourenço, DRC President Félix Tshisekedi, Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema, and the Vice President of Tanzania.The project, designed to connect the mining basins of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Zambia to the port of Lobito, is crucial for transporting key natural resources such as copper and cobalt.
President Biden emphasized that the Lobito Corridor represents a transformative opportunity for local communities and plays a vital role in advancing the global energy transition.
The initiative is expected to catalyze economic growth and regional cooperation.
With an additional $200 million in private investment, the total US commitment to this infrastructure project now exceeds $4 billion.
This significant funding is part of the broader effort to strengthen US-Africa relations and drive economic integration on the continent.
Angolan President João Lourenço expressed his satisfaction with the US’s involvement, calling it a pivotal moment in US-Angola relations.
He also highlighted the historical significance of this visit—the first by a sitting US President to Angola—and its potential to enhance regional cooperation.
President Tshisekedi of the DRC underscored the critical role the Lobito Corridor plays in his country’s economy.
He called for close collaboration between the involved nations to fully harness the project’s potential and ensure sustainable resource management.
Tshisekedi noted that the corridor could create more than 30,000 direct and indirect jobs, helping to alleviate poverty and foster intra-African trade.
Zambian President Hichilema described the Lobito Corridor as a unique opportunity for Zambia, stressing that the improved logistics could triple the country’s copper production by 2030.
He urged continued international support to achieve these ambitious goals.
The Tanzanian Vice President also lent support to the project, recognizing its potential to enhance trade across African borders and align with the African Union’s Agenda 2063, which focuses on economic integration and development across the continent.
The US has already mobilized over $6 billion in public and private investment for the Lobito Corridor, positioning the project as a strategic counterbalance to China’s growing influence in Africa.
The initiative is seen as a way to provide alternatives to Chinese investments, which have faced criticism for their restrictive terms.
The Lobito Corridor is not just an infrastructure project; it symbolizes the renewed ambition of the United States to invest in Africa’s growth.
The leaders present agreed that the completion of the corridor could transform the regional economy, creating new opportunities for African nations and strengthening ties across the continent.

AVZ continually have to fight the offensive and defensive and simply can’t afford to drop their guard. What a weak blind sided government we have.
The enemy no doubt are sitting back thinking well played regardless of how this plays out.
Come on Nigel time to get some big boys on board as shots are being fired in all directions.
Even happy with the Texans you mentioned if they are loaded so we can put up a real fight.
Can’t wait until everyone of these evil fuckers are exposed.

So your house is worth $1.2 million and you endure bs for 2 years that stops you from selling.
But at the end you'll take $230k and "walk away a winner".
Two questions:
1. Are you aware that you are talking the price down. The asking price for your $1.2 m house is $230k,?
2. How much do you think that you'll get?
Clue: $230k, MAXIMUM because peeps know how desperate you are.
Have these conversations in private until there's an offer on the table.
Let me know when you're selling your house.
End of day it's worth what the highest bidder is willing to pay. Yeah, maybe there is a sense of "talking my price down" but also I think it's trying to stay reasonable given the circumstances the house is facing.
I'd cream my pants if I can get 1.2 million for my house that is blacklisted and condemned by the local council/government.
edit: but yes I'll keep it on the downlow and in private.
The house is not condemned by anybody.
It is recognised by all as extremely valuable.
That is why criminals are disputing the ownership.
If you win that argument, there is no reason to sell it cheap.
no reason to sell it cheap.
That all depends if there are buyers?
Who would buy if the laws are corrupt and titles are not respected under the law.
I’m finding it really curious that you are so quick to get stuck in to The BOD on this, and to dismiss the concept that AVZ’s detractors have something to do with this, in any form.

I’m finding it curious that everyone is super keen to present this as a non issue Im not a troll, im a long term investor and im curious as to why our offices have been raided with 0 comms from our management. Scoota has cleared this up. Every time anyone comes here with any criticism this boring ass response of “you must be working for the enemy” comes up. AFP raids. Oh the AFP are on the payroll. AFR writes an article exposing our managements failings. Oh Tommy is a turd eater. It’s a fucking chat site. We are suspended from trade and our offices just got raided by the AFP. Forgive me if I’m critical of the only people responsible for managing our company.

And yet no one here knows, yet you keep asking like trying to instigate and agitate holders who don't bloody know!
Go ask AVZ or something ffs.

Sorry if it agitates you mate. I thought someone might have some actual insight. Not an unreasonable assumption. Perhaps someone with some experience with AFP raids. Certainly clarified for me the reason there has not been an announcement. $5.60
If titles are never respected, then there will be no buyers and we won't be selling it. Cheap or otherwise.
If Manono is proven to belong to AVZ, then there will be no shortage of buyers.
Market forces will ensure that the price is not cheap.
I really don't understand why so many people think we will sell an asset if we don't own it.
Either:
We don't own the asset and therefore will never sell it.
Or we do own it, and will get a good price.
It goes back to the house analogy.
All or nothing
Yeah, but even trolls take their medication for bipolar.
You flip from reasonably ok to ranting and back again often and rapidly.
It's pretty obvious we aren't going to get any comms from the BOD only a day or so after the event occurred, yet here you are ranting again already. Just because the office was raided doesn't mean the BOD even knows why yet.
Just settle the fuck down.
If the BOD updated us immediately every time a new piece of shitfuckery happened, they'd never get anything else done.
Immediate tactical actions are find out what the Feds were after, and why.
Then work with our legal team to deal with it and get advice on how/if/when to do comms based on that information.
Then keep focused on the longer term strategic actions at ICC and ICSID.
There is a costed and budgeted plan in place for that.

Brah, it is million in the short overview, not billion.
Argh fuck, I'm wrong again.
Thanks for pointing out my error.
I will delete it and go do something else. I just can't get it right, no matter what.
