AVZ Discussion 2022

[Mute22]

6 days off the drink and catching up 3 pages of reading just then , i'm off to the bottle o

That reminds me, this has been in the fridge since 2022.

I was planning to open when we got the mining license.

And what would you have them do?
Send in the army?
I’m a holder and hoping for a good result but truth is DRC is corrupt and Australia has zero leverage.
And, in any case, why would Australia be enthusiastic about helping a lithium project in DRC that will produce a large amount of lithium supply for China and undercut Australian Lithium producers?

"And what would you have them do?"

Acknowledging the issue even fucking exists might have been a good start.......

And if an "Australian" company was developing the resource in Manono just maybe, just maybe with co-operation and support of the Australian Government they could have assisted other "Australian" companies in the broader global lithium market somehow for the wider benefit of all Australian lithium miners....ya know?

Sort of sounds strategic doesn't it?

No, not really

Hopefully you'll have a reason soon to get off the wagon soon

KoBold has reportedly proposed a compromise: AVZ would receive compensation for dropping its claims, Zijin would retain control of the northern section of Manono, and KoBold would develop the southern portion. The U.S. company also suggested that minority shares be held directly by the Congolese state rather than Cominière.

By extrapolation any compensation for AVZ dropping its claims would have to include the value of both north and south as part of that compensation amount or its not in shareholder interest to drop the claims (notwithstanding an appropriate discount of total value for immediacy if its a lump sum vs royalty or delayed payment arrangement).

There is leverage available here to show DRC as an investable region on the international stage if they make it right.

That doesn’t say or imply AVZ will receive compensation specifically for the north

I’m sure KoBold are willing to pay for the whole tenement but let Zijin have the north just not to antagonise China. While antagonising China by rat fucking CATH. Makes perfect sense.

Defo agree that this is all a test by Trump to see how investible the DRC is for the gringos

I wonder, strategically, if the existing Australian lithium miners are happy to see Manolo undeveloped as long as possible?
Less lithium supply is in their interests. Particularly given the recent CATH agreement would give CATH/China all the output for the first five years.

Might need to change your name mate, to Wine?No!

You've got another 200K plus in that one. As a corollary, my first car was a Toyota Coronally. Eventually died on the backroads of Tasmania at over 330K

Did it have a coronary?

 

[Hudnut]

And what would you have them do?

Anything other than nothing.

Looks like the offer from Kobold was too low ?

They wanted a no ML discount below the all time high like Jens was suggesting which would open possibility of class action against bod without key legal cases (particularly Dathomir) being resolved imo

 

[protoje]

Considering Kobold are a company specialising in the use of AI, this recent update from Grok is interesting - and being influenced by all of the X posts
