Disregard this i fked it up never converted it to SRN *facepalm* just rang em, all sorted
Winenut
GO AVZ!!!!
You need to get your SRN and then register your shareholding on Automic
AVZ is "issuer" sponsored after delisting (your HIN is useless for unlisted stocks)
Your SRN will start with a capital "I" for "Issuer"
You should have received a holding statement with the SRN through shareholder communications but if not contact Automic to get it
Cheers!

GO AVZ!!!!
Well I wish I managed to read your follow up post before posting my fucking novel on the matter!

Its gonna be an expensive one as well.
So reading between the lines of various comments of late, it sounds like Kobold made an offer around 6 months ago. This was duly rejected, presumably for being low-ball and opportunistic.
However shortly after this they gained unauthorised access to our core library. Cute.
Then in January they again went behind our back with a direct pitch to FT for control of Manono, albeit with the added sweetener of adequate compensation for AVZ.
If this is all correct, then their actions thus far present as hostile to our legally sound interests.
Since then, and following our recent ICC win, will Kobold now reappraise their approach and become a white knight prepared to recognise AVZ's true value?
If not, there are surely other contenders for Manono only too happy to do so.

*Fyi, Another No1 on No2's Forum i see
Supported by heavy vehicles such as Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos, KoBold Metals seeks to establish itself in one of the largest hard rock lithium deposits in the world.
An initiative that comes in a context of economic and strategic tensions between the US and China, the main player in the electric battery market.
A strategic challenge for the DRC and the United States
According to Bloomberg, KoBold Metals has been engaged in discussions with the Congolese government to obtain a key mining permit and restart the exploitation of lithium at Manono, a site with reserves estimated at several million tons.
“This deposit has the potential to become a large-scale, long-lived lithium mine,” says Sandy Alexander, KoBold’s legal director.
With its artificial intelligence technologies, the company aims to optimise exploration and mining, an approach that contrasts with traditional methods.
But beyond the technical issues, this project illustrates Washington’s commitment to securing a strategic supply of lithium, a vital metal for the electric and renewable energy industries.
A mining dispute that blocks investment
KoBold’s initiative comes in a climate of conflict of interest.
The coveted permit is the focus of a dispute between the Australian AVZ minerals Ltd., the Chinese company, and Kinshasa.
This legal battle, which has been going on for several years, has slowed down investment and slowed down the development of the site.
With its offer, KoBold offers a way out for this tug-of-war arm that divides the DRC and its mining partners.
But the whole question remains: is the Congolese government prepared to free itself from China’s monopoly on its strategic resources?
The DRC, a key player in the lithium market
In the face of the rise in the energy transition, the DRC, which is already the world leader in cobalt, could play a central role in the supply of lithium.
But to do so, it will have to navigate between the ambitions of the multinationals, diplomatic pressure and local demands for economic and environmental benefits.
The game is far from won.
If KoBold manage to establish itself at Manono, it would mark a turning point in the global lithium market equilibrium.
But Chinese actors, who have invested heavily in Africa in recent years, do not plan to give up their places without resistance.
Towards a new tug-of-war between Beijing and Washington?
KoBold’s interest in Congolese lithium is part of a broader dynamic in which the US is trying to reduce its dependence on Chinese raw materials.
For their part, Chinese companies continue to strengthen their presence on the mainland, despite a recent drop in lithium prices.
In this geopolitical chess game, the DRC may well be doing well... if it negotiates intelligently.

US wants revised terms on Ukraine minerals deal, FT reports
The Trump administration is looking to renegotiate its proposed minerals deal with Ukraine which, if agreed on, would grant the US expanded access to the Eastern European resources, the Financial Times reported on Friday.
The FT has learned, citing Ukrainian officials, that Washington wants to broaden the terms of the deal to include other assets, most notably a nuclear power plant that is currently under Russian control. It is also looking to add more specific provisions on American ownership of a joint investment fund.
These changes would, the sources said, essentially require a renegotiation of the unsigned minerals that fell apart last month.
The FT report comes a day after US President Donald Trump said that a minerals deal will be signed “shortly” following his talks this week with the Russian and Ukrainian leaders.
The pledge was made following his signing of an executive order to increase US production of critical minerals.
In addition to Ukraine, Trump said that his government is also looking at rare earths and minerals in other countries.

*To remind,
Game Over for Kagame: KoBold Metals and Bill Gates Move to Congo
The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is finally receiving the attention and respect it deserves.A powerful U.S. company called KoBold Metals, supported by billionaires Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos, is now preparing to invest in Congo’s rich lithium resources.
This move could bring huge change to the country and marks a major shift in global interest, away from Rwanda and into Congo, where the real value lies.
For years, Rwanda under Paul Kagame has been accused of stealing Congo’s natural resources, especially from the east of the country.
While the world turned a blind eye, Kagame’s regime continued to support rebel groups that caused violence in Congo, all to gain control of valuable minerals like cobalt and gold.
Rwanda’s so-called “success story” was built on Congo’s stolen wealth, but now the tide is turning.
Today, the world is seeing the truth, and Bill Gates, once close to Kagame, is moving his support to Congo.
This is not just business; this is justice.
KoBold Metals is using modern technology and artificial intelligence to find and develop critical minerals needed for electric cars and green energy.
Lithium is one of these minerals, and Congo’s Manono project holds one of the largest hard rock lithium deposits in the world.
KoBold wants to help develop it fairly, legally, and in partnership with the Congolese people.
In a letter to President Félix Tshisekedi, KoBold said the Manono area "has the potential to become a large-scale, long-lived lithium mine."
This is not a small promise.
This is a serious opportunity for Congo to grow its economy, create jobs, and become a global leader in clean energy minerals.
What is Lithium?
Lithium is a special metal used to make rechargeable batteries, like the ones in electric cars, smartphones, and solar power systems.
As the world moves to clean energy, lithium is becoming one of the most important resources on Earth.
That’s why countries and companies are racing to secure it.
Congo’s lithium, especially from the Manono project, could power the future of green energy worldwide
While Congo is working hard to attract honest investment, a legal fight between Australian company AVZ Minerals and Chinese firm Zijin has slowed progress.
Years ago, Congo canceled AVZ’s license and gave part of the land to China’s Zijin.
But now, with support from the U.S. and KoBold Metals, Congo has a chance to move forward with trusted partners, not those who want to take without giving back.
Even more powerful is what this shift means for geopolitics in Africa.
The United States, through companies like KoBold, is showing it wants to support real partnerships with Congo, not just benefit from its resources.
This could help weaken Rwanda’s unfair influence, which has caused too much damage already.
Let’s not forget: Congo holds the world’s biggest supply of cobalt, the second-largest supply of copper, and large amounts of lithium, tin, and gold.
These are not just rocks but they are the future of the world’s energy, and Congo owns them.

It's an old story from the old days ya Plonker
Thought that was pretty obvious
I just threw it in to remind people of where we were / came from and where we're heading now
In the right direction, back on Track after a few hiccups along the way, still with a Big Future if all goes our way

Asking Grok is AI.......
Dumb fuks.
AVZ went out to explore, drill the deposit out and obtain a JORC compliant ore reserve estimate.
What did Kobold do, other than being cheap underhand fukkers????
Do they really think they can throw a couple of peanuts our way and tell us to play nice and fuk off??
