AVZ Discussion 2022

[Roon]

"In connection with the arbitration in Paris, RAC, a negotiation is in sight with the majority shareholder in AVZ,... get rid of AVZ,... the condition put on the table is the withdrawal of the arbitration complaint."

Negotiations with conditions seemingly taking place!?

Not a chance we are having negotiations with CKK and Lisette and co, Cominiere has made their position clear. They have said in media interviews that the win-win contract they are referring to is one they are seeking with other entities, not AVZ. Of course we may sideline them and get a negotiated deal with the DRC government, but I can't see Cominiere being involved in any discussions with AVZ retaining the tenement.

They can't get rid of us Roon IMO - they've teamed up with Chinese entities to buy us out is my guess

Otherwise we will go to ICC and ICSID which we know has piqued Felix' and Antoinette's attention.

It's quite telling that Lars' profile pic is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Such a tosser!

My guess is that you're right. It would set a very bad precedent and show poor business atmospherics if MoM backs cominiere in reallocation of Dathcom's licence to another party, which is Cominiere's obvious intent, and as you say would very likely lead to a protracted legal battle at ICSID which AVZ would likely win

I'd say the most likely outcome is a negotiated settlement, ending with AVZ's departure - through a buyout that leaves Zijin or CMOC in control. I hold strong doubts that we'll be able to go mining at this point.

Special K has no authority to cancel the JV - any dispute needs to be taken to the ICC first.

With the weight of the IGF and their findings and what AVZ has accumulated over time (contracts and the like). Comm does not have a leg to stand on in my opinion. Where's the money that was apparently paid for the 15% by Sin Bin?

The last thing the DRC wants are rulings against it, its ministers and quasi government enterprises.

The IGF was more than likely established so that the DRC can work towards coming off the Grey List (US Treasury).

Special K can run around and sign all the contracts he wants - my thoughts are they are not likely valid.

With the speculation of TO's I would also note its the life of the mine, future anticipated shortages of lithium and quality of the product is where the true value sits.

AVZ taking action within the ICC & ICSID are very strategic moves - the DRC does not want a ruling against it by the ICSID especially with World Bank affiliation.

Just a thought bubble.

If Special K does indeed run around signing contracts cant AVZ invoke the clause from the ICC hearing we won to seek daily damages? I think it was 1mil a day from memory

 

[Roon]

50k euro per day I believe was the fine.

Yep $50k per day - Celestin is talking like he doesn't give a fuck about any of those penalties or potential cost in the billions + reputational damage to DRC business climate - yet is re-instated as Cominiere DG. Unfucking believable

Ta, still a decent sum. I dont think they have paid the 180k in legal costs yet either

 

[Xerof]

If you read what special K says, (the full article is under Bags thread) he claims to have argued multiple breaches by AVZ (I can't comment on the validity of those claims) and seems to have convinced a minister, probably MoM, to revoke AVZ 60% plus reverted the 15% back to DATHOMIR. No evidence of this has surfaced (i.e. decree), other than whats on CAMI, so I don't know what to make of it. But he thinks it's done.

All I'm saying is, in his peabrain, he is now in control of the destiny of PE13359, and under the above circumstances, probably hasn't breached the court order, as he claims AVZ have breached the terms of the JV. No arbitration necessary in his mind, as no dispute.

Into the valley of death rode the stupid cunt Celestine

Maybe CKK knows a settlement with AVZ is in the works . Hence his recent bravado and cockiness .

No.....he's just a dick

 

[wombat74]

No.....he's just a dick

So far he's all talk no action . He should have started building a mine by now with his Chinese masters . I wonder what's stopping him ?

 

[Hudnut]

Celestin the dumb corrupt cock sucka has been talking like $avz is out quite abit of late (whether we trust that CominiereSA is run by him or proxy) - my guess is a negotiated settlement has been agreed upon most receipt of ML/release of BFS at the battery conference in September - anyone thinking similar?

I don't think any actions will be timed to coincide with any conferences etc.
They will happen on their own timeline.

DRC has shown they have no shame, so turning up to a conference without things resolved won't affect them.
An announcement not aligning to an existing event is just an excuse to have another event.

On another note ('cause it's Friday), while I was doing some searching on Dathomir Google threw up a Star Wars related page....

Is Simon Cong from the dark side of the Force?

For the engineer, Céléstin Kibeya General Manager of COMINIERE, "negotiations are reportedly underway with the Australian group of AVZ MINERALS", which is the majority shareholder in DATHCOM SA. But wanting to integrate COMINIERE SA alone in the new partnerships on Manono lithium, Céléstin Kibeya places a condition on Australians," that of the withdrawal of the complaint in arbitration in Paris with the CCI by AVZ MINERALS. “

No fucking way!!!!! Not until something is signed sealed and delivered. ( first part seems somewhat positive though of a resolution for us )
