America has done little thus far in DRC to erode China's hold on critical mineral channels, and in the last few years hasn't stepped in to support AVZ in its battle. Why would they now? Even if this deal does go ahead, which I doubt, America is supposedly to be offered to opportunities to exploit and export minerals. Why would they aid a Chinese-backed and Chinese-partnered company like AVZ, whose critical mineral offtakes are all headed to China? How does that help them gain control of the flow of these resources?

I guess there is some potential that they could swoop in and prevent our need to partner up with CATH, to somehow support the Americans instead and partner up to send our uncontracted offtakes back to the states, but we're just a little fish in a big pond. They don't need us, and I'd be careful what we wish for. Also, I have strong doubts over what will come out of this DRC-US partnership offer in any case, given US failures in the past to counteract China in the DRC and its current unwillingness to get involved in external conflicts
"American has done little thus far...."

True. But using "thus far" as a metric for anything since Trump 2.0 has become 90% redundant, so we'll see.

I don't think Americans likely to replace CATH, and i don't think that's necessarily best outcome for us either, but they could try and make sure that China at least doesn't have 100% of the output.

But for me, anything that shakes things up and gets stuff moving I think is at least a half step forwards

Fark, you're not happy unless you're unhappy... you actually seem to enjoy being a miserable prick
