AVZ Discussion 2022

[wombat74]

I am a little slow on the uptake when it comes to tapping in to AVZ website for formal updates......

Convertible Note raising AVZ has raised A$1.4 million via an initial issuance of unsecured convertible notes (Convertible Notes) to certain professional or sophisticated investors (Noteholders), including directors and management personnel of the Company. The funds will be used to meet operational costs and, until entry into a binding litigation funding facility, fund the ongoing legal proceedings to which AVZ and its subsidiaries are a party. This initial fundraising enables AVZ to continue to take actions to protect its legal rights in the Manono Project and the interests of its shareholder and other stakeholders. The Company has also granted a call option

Now this has been made public, this was one of the many bits of intel that i was advised prior............so far so good.

Nigel going cap in hand, working hard to protect our rights as mentioned before

There is a reason why Locke funding is delayed, but not going to reveal why, but should be good to go...........if required.

In addition to the Company's continued pursuit of its legal strategy with a view to achieving a negotiated settlement, the Company continues to identify and explore realisation opportunities whilst ensuring any such settlement or value realisation opportunity is in the best interest of all shareholders.

"the Company continues to identify and explore realisation opportunities"

Any suggestions as to what these opportunities might be ?

The "realisation" that Felix is corrupt to the core and loves Chinese brown paper bags

Great post Frank.

Just one omission from your list of inglorious thieves...the fat bloke in the middle wearing the silk Armani and Rolex.

He's the head of the DRC corruption snake.

Cominiere announces PE granted for Manono Lithium 15575 - clearly zero fucks given regarding ICSID cases & ICC ruling.

What a pack of absolutely corrupt cunts.

#MANONO #LITHIUM SCANDALE sur la vente des 15% de l'État Congolais aux Chinois de #ZIJIN à 33.4 millions que 150 millions $US. En 2021 un dirigeant de la #COMINIERE demande de faire apparaître 35.5 millions $US sur les documents que le chiffre réel convenu. @Presidence_RDC

depressing news from those drc and chinese fucks. I'm expecting news shortly, either they're still negotiating and we'll hear of a deal OR negotiations are going no where, avz are closing up and will just pursue drc through the courts. I dont think the uncertainty on which of the two paths is going to go on much longer.

Where does everyone get this idea that there will potentially be a moment where the bod decides to stop attempting negotiations

As far as I'm aware the ICSID allows deals during the entire process

If there ever comes a point where the bod hand everything over to the lawyers and say we aren't going to try anymore then they should all fucking resign imo

 

[mikejoho]

For what seems to be a universal dispute resolution mechanism in international contracts, the ICC and ICSID are made to look like toothless tigers. The blatant disregard shown by Celestin Kibeya and Comminere for the interim orders is contempt at the highest order, not just for AVZ but for these ruling bodies. He is mocking the interim orders by presenting at this conference and pretending that he is untouchable.
IMO, he is forcing them into a position where they will have to bare their teeth, for their own credibility. How many times can the bear be poked

Given that the MoM would be required to sign off on the progress of an exploration permit to a PE, this also means that its not just Cominiere, but that the DRC Government itself has again ignored the interim ICSID orders. It also suggests that the new MoM might not be aligned with our interests, as seems probable given the content of the letter he sent to the Prime Minister covering the AVZ file, and the subsequent public notice by the Ministry of Mines comms department that there had been no negotiations on a MoU as we had stated in an announcement.

Surely they're digging a hole for themselves with all this flagrant avoidance of conforming with the orders from these bodies.

Perhaps however they are willing to delay things, just wanting to get the Chinese to be building or finishing a mine by the time ICSID provides any final ruling, thinking they would take this into account as a 'fact on the ground' and making it more difficult to overturn anything related to the northern tenement area. It will be near impossible to budge the Chinese from this position, if they are allowed to much further advance their Project, as seems to be playing out.

Compensation for the north and awarding of the southern permit (and a subsequent buyout) would be the only favorable outcome I can see as plausible. Mpiana Mwanga is a tricky factor though in this scenario, as is the redrawn tenement boundaries losing our access to water and Camp Colline in the south.

No one here doubts Felix is the problem, and he's too far up China's arse to "see the forest for the trees"...

[Mr_Tones83]

Just because Geopolis magazine has claimed CK told the battery metals forum that the PE has been granted doesn't make it true. The lies told by both of them have been non-stop for years.
If it is true then yes, there is a whole lot more evidence for ICC and ICSID to rule in AVZ's favour, but I don't think the MoM is foolish enough to have granted a PE as he is acutely aware of the ICSID interim rulings.

Cami and cominiere have been working hand it hand for 12 months to screw over/scare investors. Disregard anything seen on the cami portal it’s a load of shit. Until MoM announces it disregard it - although the north will probably go let’s be honest
