Lithium the ore of the century, that of eclectic batteries that the whole world is struggling to regain possession of, lithium is a strategic metal for the energy transition, even saying it for the future of our planet, it is also a metal considered critical following the great risk of its supply by its scarcity.
But now, in DR Congo following the politicization of the file, the Manono lithium project in Tanganyika, which should make DR Congo one of the giants in the world and the main player in the energy transition, in particular to return the letters of nobility to the country of Lumumba in the global mining sector, is almost at a stop.
The Minister of Mines of Congo, Antoinette N'Samba Kalambayi by an order signed on January 28, 2023, had suspended the Operating Permit (PE13359) of the joint venture DATCOM granted in April 2022 after the feasibility study of the Australians of AVZ MINERALS 75% partner in DATHCOM, following the accusations of the COMINIERE state company and hastily in DA
COMINIERE had accused AVZ MINERALS of having taken the project and the joint venture, DATHCOM hostage in that it conducted the research and management of the joint venture without associating it from beginning to end, in particular of not having actually carried out research.
"The revelations come from a very serious Australian newspaper, which says that it would have US$six million, which should be paid to a Congolese intermediary, I don't know if it's Mr. Marius Mihigo," said the acting director general of the COMINIERE, Célestin Kibeya accusing the lobbying and mediation of Mr. Marius Mihigo
In fact, AVZ MINERALS had used Marius Mihigo for intermediation (lobbying) in DR Congo, to promote the image of society and facilitate contacts with administrations and decision-making authorities of Manono's lithium file, a legal and legalized work, particularly recognized in DR Congo and around the world.
Namely that Mr. Mihigo and his company are not paid by the Congolese State, nor with the Congolese taxpayer's money, but by private funds of the company, AVZ MINERALS, therefore free for Australians to choose who and how should work for him and will only have to report to its shareholders.
But here, the same state society accusing the intermediation of Marius Mihigo, the COMINIERE had used Mrs. Lisette Kabanga Tshibwabwa, then head of the office of the security advisor to President Félix Tshisekedi, Mr Jean-Claude Bukasa, in particular member and Deputy National Secretary UDPS in relation to the socialist international and the progressive alliances
For "presenting" the ChinoisZIJIN group to the COMINIERE and the Congolese State through the Ministries of Mines and the Portfolio, (presented in doubt, since the latter were already in contact with ZIJIN's Chinese in other projects).
Mrs. Lisette Kabanga Tshibwabwa and her company Focus plaidoirie created in 2020, received a retrocommission of US$1,600,000 simply for their lobbying in the sale, or the sale according to the IGF (Inspection Générale des Finances) of the 15% of COMINIERE's shares in DATHCOM, at a derisory sum of US$33
Mrs. Lisette Kabanga Tshibwabwa contacted on this 15% sales file, had recognized her work of intermediation between the Chinese of ZIJIN and the COMINIERE, her fee of US$1,600,000, in particular to justify the legality of lobbying or prohibition in Rd Congo.
Because then, why does the same COMINIERE through its director, Céléstin Kibeya and some advisers to the Head of State, Félix Tshisekedi criticize and consider the same intermediation work of Mr. Marius Mihigo for a private group, which is AVZ MINERALS?
