AVZ Discussion 2022

[ChrisU]

The Company is aware of a DRC Tribunal decision dated 20 September 2022 granting a request by Dathomir Mining Resources SARL (Dathomir) for the interim suspension of payments of purchase prices under SPAs by which Dathomir agreed to sell and AVZI agreed to buy a 15% interest in Dathcom (Dathomir SPAs) pending arbitration.

Yes, but AVZ maintains it is not a party to the matter and has done so since day 1 with media speculation statement.
Oddly, it feels obliged to comment at all. It’s because of this sense of obligation that we or many of us are starting to feel like jilted lovers.

Consider the passage of time, AFR learned very late to only have enquired as Tom Richardson claims on Tuesday. That’s 28 days. Why did it take so long to leak out? Dathomir didn’t leak it surely.

 

[ChrisU]

Moneybags, I could be more negative about the company, but some people take it personally.

 

[ptlas]

Charbella, just off the top of my head and without any looking into it…. I think it refers to AVZ wanting three Judges at Arbitration (Procedural Order No: 1)

Which means it ruled in AVZ’s favour of requesting three judges rather than one

I haven’t looked into the announcements yet as I am still too flabbergasted by the language I am reading…. There are far too many people trying to take my and @Winenut’s mantel….

There are far too many people trying to take my and @Winenut’s mantel….

You're there to be shot at.
Every lion king is deposed

 

[Mr Inappropriate]

Oh Nuts, we were just about to pass the mantle over to @Mr Inappropriate and now you’ve taken an unbreakable grip on it and @TDITD is trying to wrestle it from you…. It’s all happening!!

The only one who can take that mantle from you now is….

Look, I’ll confess I’m up against it. I usually only see the announcements after work, so Nuts gets a full business day to stew on the contents and create new invective for Z / PRC / BOD / Jean Claude van Damme / any other corrupt mutherfuckers, long before I’ve managed to string together a few naughty words to post here.

In spite of this handicap, I will fight on.

Good for you Mr Inappropriate, my sentiments exactly…. Fight On Slugger

Hi Moneybags, thanks for your reply. I have gone back to all the announcements and can’t find anything related to procedural request from AVZ. With regards to AVZ wanting three judges at Arbitration, the ICC has informed the parties that it appointed a sole arbitrator. I am buggered!

I wouldn’t dwell on it. AVZ is just trying to derisk.

I’ll see what I can dig up….

[JAG]

Just for you @Winenut @MoneyBags1348 @Frank @TDITD

When you have too much tonight and posted just look here.....love ya's

 

[oxxa23]

This announcement is essentially just a response to the AFR query?

Absolutely... Tommy enquired, they felt like they needed to release info on it because of that...

 

[Mr Inappropriate]

I’ve read, re-read, and read again that word-salad abomination of an announcement.
It’s almost like someone threw some duck entrails at google translate and this is what popped out the end. FMD.

Caution: What follows is a madman’s reverse-engineered interpretation of said word salad. Read at your own risk.

Now that’s out of the way, I think I can see AVZ painting a positive picture here:

Thing 1. Z/ICC Arbitration: The next action is for the ICC to determine whether it has *jurisdiction* to hear the case. AVZ think the ICC does not have jurisdiction and, if correct, the case will not proceed to the next step (of “being heard on its merits”).

Thing 2. DRC Tribunal: AVZ are seemingly so confident on this one they did not even send the office coffee boy to stand in the corner of the hearing room and play pocket billiards for a few hours. What the shit, Batman? Either that or they were binge-watching Doomsday Preppers and forgot to put the alarm on - dunno which.
Anyhoo, AVZ are saying “we don’t give a fuck - it’s not a properly constituted arbitral tribunal”, presumably because the dispute mechanisms are laid out in detail in other legal documents (JV agreement or somesuch thing). In other words, “until such time as one of these numbnuts from Dathomir invokes a proper dispute with us, it’s ours thanks all the same”.

So yeah, I think it’s positive. If correct, it might explain the vibe about being close to the ML, but who the fuck knows…

Oh, and to AVZ management: Hi. I hereby volunteer to write your announcements from this point forward. I’ll write some nice words that are both syntactically correct and logically structured. Then I’ll hand it over Wino and Moneybags who will add the kind of verbs and adjectives that would make a soldier blush. These announcements, so authored, will then be both understandable and entertaining. You know it makes sense.

The funny thing is I think you got the first part wrong Mr I

Now I’m going to have to re-read it

Maybe. Have an other read and share your thoughts…

MB if possible can you please drop me a private message on the call you received? I can’t see how to initiate a message to you…

After reading the announcement 100 times, I think your interpretation of point 1 is on the money.
