That's a nice thought xerof, seems Zijin have (illegally) muscled their way in and made it an expensive proposition for the Congolese to kick them out.I'll take up the challenge Carlos....
Ministerial decree 00031 moved to nullify the relinquishment of the North and reinstate 13359 in its entirety to DATHCOM.
Why was this?
How about because of legal issues relating to unrealised promises and false pretence, as Outcast points out in his timeline, which I recently posted here. Effectively, this unwinds the North entirely, and leaves 13359 reunified and in the rightful name of DATHCOM. Remember, this Decree was initiated by DRC.....
So forget about all this talk of form filling with boxes ticked for relinquishment and so on. irrelevant, see first sentence
Yes, but... then came Ministerial decree 00032 , which revoked DATHCOM's ownership of 13359 in its entirety, for reasons not in the mining code (AVZ aren't being nice to other shareholders, etc)
AVZ assert that this decree is illegal and took it to ISCID
It is this decree that the ISCID case is all about - an illegal strip
#AVZ loves Ministerial Decree #31
Manono Lithium evaporates if we win at ISCID, IMO
Guaranteed the Chinese exerting pressure on their piss weak corrupt government and handing out snacks behind the scenes as well.
They've also stolen our core library and infrastructure, started work illegally on the Hydro plant and continue their illegal drilling and announcing it all on the stock exchange as if all their claims are legit whilst being backed by cominiere and other unsavoury elements of the government and media.
They should have already evaporated if there was any sign of anybody following things like the law or the mining code.
I wish it were that simple but I don't reckon it will be.
It'd all be very interesting if we weren't the ones caught up in it.
To your point though, my reading of the situation has been the same and I reckon you're exactly right. The tenement split we agreed to under false pretences is null and void along with the decree. Not only that the number of carries mysteriously increased to include all of our assets which was never something anybody agreed to even under duress.
