The same creeps who tried to squeeze us out now want a better deal, lol, fuck these mofo's. Anywho, let's hope we can get our money back soon, nothing else matters at this stage

I was worried I'd made a mistake somewhere in my roughing it out, and very glad the correction aparently works in our favour 😀

Curious why the change though.
Maybe AVZ will re-list on Singapore market.

CATH is its own independent company. Regardless of their friendliness or not with the board, they are obliged to vote and act in the best interest of their own company, which I guess, at the time, was with MAGA. They were probably promised something good if MAGA won and probably thought AVZ was dead, but now AVZ is alive and they're on board I guess. CATH had no reason to go down with, what they thought, was a sinking ship.

Do we crucify them for abandoning us out of spite, or just make it water under the bridge as long as they support us? I for one would like a big CATL associate batting in our corner with likely fully sorted offtake agreements by the time we are producing (it we get there)

Best announcement I have seen from AVZ in probably 2 years. CATH now funding our legal battles against Zijin. I can't help but be happy about this.

Relationship Deed


The relationship deed between AVZ and CATH provides for:
- a restriction on any disposal of AVZ shares by CATH (or any of its associates) to certain prohibited
parties; Zijin, MAGA cunts
- an undertaking by CATH (and each of its associates holding AVZ shares) to extend certain agreed
supports to AVZ; and vote in favour of resolutions
- for CATH to provide reasonable assistance to AVZ in respect of certain shareholder-related

proceedings. Fund WASC proceedings v MAGA cunts

I like this bit : "AVZ and CATH have agreed to work collaboratively to constructively engage with the DRC Government to secure and accelerate the development of the Manono Project."

Looks to me like we have found a way to satisfy a possible negotiated outcome . Zijin/CCP get their slice , The DRC Gov avoid the ICSID and AVZ get out of this f--king Mess .

Despite some reservations about this situation and parts of the announcement, i think that, on the whole, this is a positive development.

Having a big player like CATH/CATL backing our play and agreeing to leverage their influence on the DRC government could be the game changer we need. I was growing concerned that DRC were willing to go through the full ICSID process and then delay and obfuscate for many years after an award, tiring us and our funding out until we eventually accepted a Lowball settlement. However, this seems like it could present a way out in which all involved could get a slice of the pie. This may result in a negotiated outcome.

Glencore has operated effectively in DRC in part due to its involvement with its partner Zijin, perhaps a similar relationship with CATH/CATL is what we need to progress the Project forward.

I mean it's a good deal for CATH, but they've got the leverage, not us. It's also probably a bit of a master-stroke by the Chinese in that they'll likely control the output of Manono's entirety despite who succeeds. Bets are hedged. But they're no slouches in business and resource control! And hell, nobody has stepped up to resolve this to suit their own interests, like Aus/US, so this may well be in our own current best interests - certainly in comparison to the existential risk of being frozen out entirely.

This is as hopeful as I've been in the last two years.

One side point - i wonder if Locke will push back at all, given that an agreement with a minimum repayment spend of 10m was agreed. Will see i guess.

INTERESTING TIMES

And the DRC potentially get to realise their dream of Battery Manufacturing.

Agree Wombat
Most important now is CATH provides a major criteria in DATHCOM receiving a mining license .
Ability to fund mining with off takes.
Whether it is only for Roche Dure or Zijin pay a fair price for Carrier ??
Very positive for AVZ and its shareholders.
China finally comes to its senses and realises that illegal mining of Monano has far greater implications .
Now when will a mining license be granted before court arbitratration ?

For once, the word " imminent " was on the money......:p
I definitely wasn't expecting this one Beish, talk about a left field announcement!

Great news IMO, there's life in this old dog yet.

First steps get in charge of 13359 and acquire the ML.
Keep ICC and ICSID arbitration cases going until the above achieved, signed and sealed in fucking blood.
To progress the arbitration cases, funding was required by end of month, early February.
The move of using GLH is to keep the Australian Government out of the picture because GLH is a Singaporean entity.
The Australian Government interests are to protect Australian mining.
To expect them to lift one finger to get Manono up and going was never going to happen.

Is it a good deal?
Locke funding was made as an interim, but I believe this deal to be better.
Locke held all the cards and could screw us completely over.
They aren't silly and had put a huge price on the risk they were prepared to take.
I would have been also very careful to go into sea with them.
I had in the back of my mind, this looks like a fucking Cash Converters type of deal, but it was needed at the time.
On the surface the deal with Cath seems to be much more advantageous, because it gives funding to continue with the arbitration cases and guarantees funding to build the mine.
A requirement for the ML.

Soooo
It looks like Zijin's so called announcement to start mining early 2026 seems to be a tactical move in this chess game.
They found out the Cath deal was about to happen.

It is in my eyes the exact reason that AVZ has to continue to keep its cards very close to its chest.

It's a complex agreement for sure with many moving parts and co-dependencies. However, there are also many opportunities so I am quietly hopeful.

While I want to see CATH and Zijin butt heads, and in turn Zijin and Cominiere butt heads, I feel that ultimately Beijing will continue to call the shots and keep them on song. It's a bit early to speculate on what will be Beijing's message to CATH, Zijin, but at the end of the day Beijing needs Manono more than Manono needs Beijing.

This announcement shows that the old girl still has a pulse, and remains defiant against the DRC's and China's shitfuckery.

Cheers
