The following is from chat gpt, it explains what I was thinking when reading point 5. It also invokes the word that cannot be spoken amongst long term AVZ holders for fear of jinxing the whole shit show further! A deal is indeed imm.....!



The word **"the"** in the statement *"Working at all possible speed to conclude **the** commercial agreement"* plays a significant grammatical and contextual role. Here's the analysis of its importance:

### 1. **Definiteness and Specificity**

* **"The"** is a definite article. It signals that the **commercial agreement** being referred to is a **specific, identifiable** one, known to both the speaker and the audience.
* Without "the", if it said *"a commercial agreement"*, it would suggest **any** agreement, not a particular one.
* This implies that discussions, negotiations, or references to this agreement have already taken place, making it a **known entity**.

### 2. **Legal or Formal Context**

* In commercial or legal language, definite articles often imply **formal recognition**. "The commercial agreement" might refer to a **drafted or soon-to-be-signed document**, reinforcing its **official status**.

### 3. **Implication of Urgency and Focus**

* Using "the" suggests that **all current efforts** are focused on **one specific task** — finalizing **that** particular agreement.
* This narrows the scope, implying **priority and urgency** in completing that exact agreement.

### Summary

The word **"the"** indicates specificity, formal recognition, and focused urgency. Its use shapes the reader’s understanding of the sentence, signaling that the commercial agreement is not just any agreement, but a known and significant one, central to the action described.

The ICSID is a non starter IMO . I'm expecting Kobold to tweak their offer to get a deal done ASAP . Kobold nuppty on YouTube was almost blowing his load with excitement .
I agree Wombat. Every chance IMO.

Maybe - but Kobold aren't listed so that would be interesting

Shares in Kobold could be a good alternative.

And today there's this...

Ref:
Probably just 11th hour posturing by both sides in order to get the best negotiated deal.

Unfortunately, I do not have a subscription (US$1,226, AU$1,915/yr online only access), and the usual paywall bypass tools are not useful for this website.

Cheers

What would a juicy royalty look like though? 1.5 to 2 % is what I’ve seen popped up. A percentage of what? Revenue? What would that look like in dollar terms?

We should also not forget the Chinese have ALREADY made an initial offer:

- Chip-in a huge chunk of cash to develop the project in return for a 30% stake and offer AVZ earn-in potential for further dow stream processing. As long as they get all the product.

It's on the Americans now to stump up a counter-offer that beats this. China may well offer their own total buyout after that, but they at least have made an offer to get this project moving in a way that's still attractive to AVZ holders
What was the Chinese offer again?
We'll steal it all for nothing :unsure:

Maybe CATH can do a deal with Trumpy. Say they'll build a few battery plants in the good 'ol US of A with American employees if he'll look the other way for this security for minerals deal. They give us 10B, they get the spod, Trump gets jobs for Americans and we get drunk

CATH are Chinese CCP. They never lifted a finger to help AVZ as Zijin plundered our tenement.
They made a 20 mil deal and squeezed us on the terms only when it was clear that we'd get alternate funding (same amount of our money that they locked up in escrow)
CATH can get rooted imo unless they enter the bidding war for the entire resource.
I just hope they haven't stitched us up in terms of selling elsewhere.

I thought it was $10 anchoring then someone asked USD or AUD and it became $12 AUD?

I think @Winenut may have first ”proposed” $10.
With a #FuckZijin shitfuckery loading it became $12, then $12USD

That's not totally implausible.
