"Massively exorbitant interest on their loans"

???

Dropped 7% last day of trading.

Doubt the shorts are paying too much above Libor - 2-3% extra maybe.

What folk fail to realise is that shorters have had the capital from selling the shares short (not CFD).

So they have had the capital to invest for 40 weeks at least, likely more.

If they cant beat the short fee, and some I would be very surprised.

Short AVZ, Long PLS, MIN, IGO. Wow that looks a nice trade

Triggered you didn't it????

Yep....

Triggered you big time there Modo.

Nervous fucking shorters are doing everything......everything......everything they can

Including putting you out there to get slaughtered you dopey patsy

You don't usually respond to my half arsed bullshit.........I'm just a Mum and Dad retail "know nothing" numpty with a few bucks in the ASX casino

Triggered you didn't it...?

Yep...

Yep.....

Watching you go down will be one of the great stories and lessons I will tell my kids about how honest, intelligent and genuine people actually do rise above the trash, filth and scum that creeps across the face of the earth like cockroaches selling their soul to the next master.....like you do

“The Company is seeking further advice on the matter and is in the process of engaging cyber security experts to investigate and advise the Company."

How is it that we’ve been outplayed at every turn?
How did this source material get out of AVZ?
Now consider that possibility that AVZ systems have been breached by the Chinese and ask yourselves the above questions again.

Fuck, that’s dark…

We can now add the Defence Signals Directorate to the list of Australian government agencies that need to get involved. I’m serious. Fark.

Some years ago I commented on the crapper re concerns for AVZ cyber security, both here and in-country. Control of the world's biggest lithium mine would warrant the best (state?) hackers be utilised. It appears my concerns have come to pass. As you say, we've been outplayed at every turn. Now we know why.

The Danes are a good bunch, and they can drink with the best of them!!

wow I get third billing lol. I'm honoured.

Always the one for a fight hey MB.

A quick sidestep by me, you trip yourself over on your jean flares, break off a heel on you boot and be shown for what you really are.

A short, bald, whinger, and to boot, has photo has to be 40 years ago.

Fuck off

How large is your short position mate?

I hope you didn’t leverage too much.

Your recent posting suggests you are, like many others from time to time on here, going through a bit of soul searching and frustration.

I don’t hold anything personally against you. You took a bet against a company I believe will succeed. Just a difference in opinions.

We’ve all been stuck for nearly 10 months. Supporters and detractors alike.

Take a bit of time away from the keyboard and live a little. Your health is your wealth as Frank would say

 

[Shire]

Mate, stellar initiative, thank you. No doubt there are a lot of holders in this forum like me who don’t type a lot but take a great interest. Am all for chucking in time / effort to a group push on whatever front may be appropriate.

No worries. Felt helpless for the last 10 months waiting for AVZ to resolve. I think Government (USA and Aust.) support is what is now required and we should be focusing our efforts there.

Where's Manolo?

Looks like Tommy's spell checking is somehow worse than his fact checking

Speaking of fact checks here's a free lesson in journalism. The time between the issuing of the new ministerial decrees and the announcement is the exact same as it was for the initial decrees being announced.

Was I too late for the stop press Tommy?

F’ing sick of still pending.
Anyway, we await AVZ’s much anticipated next announcement that’s still pending…..ah fuck

US seeks critical mineral pacts with Japan, UK to curb China

The US government is exploring narrowly focused trade pacts on critical minerals with Japan and the UK, in addition to talks with the European Union, the latest salvo in its push to counter Chinese influence in key sectors, officials familiar with the matter said.

The US is looking to create a “critical minerals buyers club” with allies like the EU and Group of Seven, the US officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

The move would ensure the bloc is not reliant on China for critical minerals, particularly as the countries look to build out renewable energy pacts, the officials said.

So-called rare Earth elements and minerals including lithium and cobalt have assumed huge strategic importance because of their role in electric-vehicle technology, defense electronics and other uses.

Especially worrisome to the US and its allies is China’s geological fortune in having supplies within its borders and its moves to lock up agreements with other producers — potentially cutting off US access in the event of a crisis with Beijing.

The deals, while aimed at China, could also make the countries eligible for benefits from the Inflation Reduction Act, soothing a key irritant over industrial incentives.

The development adds Japan and the UK to the list of countries where the US is seeking critical mineral pacts.

The US had already been in talks with the EU over such a deal.

The US has long been pushing to secure supply chains of critical minerals, including through a Minerals Security Partnership that includes the EU, UK and Japan, as well as other countries such as Australia and South Korea.

That group held a meeting earlier this week to discuss mining, processing, and recycling of critical minerals with representatives of several African nations, according to the State Department.

The push is part of President Joe Biden’s effort to shift global supply chains away from China, blunting Beijing’s clout in key sectors and hedging against disruptions — like the Covid-19 pandemic — that would upend supply chains or create scarcities that may starve US or other friendly producers.

Part of the joint push is driven by a desire to make sure the US is not reliant on China for critical minerals, the officials said.

It will also mean the US and its allies have access to the inputs needed to meet emission-reductions goals, according to the officials.

Participating countries would be eligible under Section 30D of the Inflation Reduction Act, an incentive aimed at promoting new electric vehicles, officials said.

A pact that clears the way for benefits under the IRA would help sooth tensions with Europe, which has complained that the provision freezes out American partners.

Biden’s administration has responded by pledging cooperation and encouraging European allies to pass their own domestic subsidies.

“This is one of the most promising ways to go forward,” German Economy Minister Robert Habeck told Bloomberg TV in an interview Monday, referring to a possible agreement on organizing a market for critical minerals.

Food for thought on the long and winding road to Manono Bro

Cheers

Over past 9 months we seen a few pics of zijin, Ajn etc with DRC ministers. Does a pic exist of Nigel and co in meeting’s with MoM or similar? I can’t recall there being one and for the life of me the only reason I can think why there isn’t one is because he hasn’t had a meeting with them. Really really hope I’m wrong

After 2 Financial Review articles, AVZ clarifies its agreements with Marius Mihigo in the Manono lithium project​

February 10, 2023
Kiki Kienge

By Kiki Kienge
In two articles published on February 8, 2023, the Australian media provided information, in particular on their collaborator, the Congolese businessman Mr Marius Mushagalusa Mihigo , that the Australian lithium giant, AVZ considers inaccurate or incomplete:
On June 1, a month after the shutdown, AVZ chief executive Nigel Ferguson authorized cash payment to Marius Mihigo, according to documents prepared for the board by DLA Piper lawyers. . Mr. Ferguson had previously offered to pay the DRC businessman an additional success bonus of US$3 million and US$2 million in AVZ shares if he helped the company obtain a mining license for the concession in which it claims a 75% stake. “ Wrote the journalist, Tom Richardson in his article of February 8, 2023.
MARIUS MIHIGO
Executive MBA, former student at CEDS Paris (France), Harvard University (USA) and University of Oxford (UK). Marius Mushagalusa Mihigo is a versatile negotiator, specialist in secret diplomacy and international relations.
The Perth company, AVZ Minerals, wanted in a press release to clarify the commitment agreements with Marius Mihigo and his team, for a collaboration in the DR Congo in the Manono lithium project. Here is the concentrate of the press release translated by our editorial staff:
AVZ hired Marius Mihigo as a strategic advisor with his team in the DRC, to:

• advise on doing business in the DRC.
• managing relationships with government and key stakeholders.
• manage security arrangements in the DRC.

Terms of Mr. Mihigo's engagement recorded in a written agreement:

• Mr. Mihigo and his team are only compensated from an initial amount of US$1 million for their services.
• reimbursement of disbursements for travel, accommodation and food (within a specified range) and other service-related costs.
• Disbursements for travel and incidental expenses shall not exceed USD 5,000 without prior approval from AVZ.
• The agreement does not provide for success fees.
• AVZ performed independent due diligence on Mr. Mihigo, before and during his engagement, which revealed no material probity issues or red flags.
• the agreement requires Mr. Mihigo and his team to comply (as the company does) with all applicable anti-corruption laws as well as the company's anti-corruption code of conduct.

The vision of the Head of State is to fight poverty and reduce inequalities”

The vision of the Head of State, "is really to fight poverty, reduce inequalities. When he presented his program, the key word was to reduce poverty.

The Head of State wants to build a strong and prosperous Congo, a rich Congo", affirms, guest of the Magazine Le Débat on Top Congo FM, its spokesperson Tina Salama.

Tina Salama

"Its vision is based on 4 pillars: good governance, sustainable economic growth, united society and the man who is at the center of this vision", she specifies.

While the results on the ground, in the opinion of many, are not very perceptible, Tina Salama notes that the President of the Republic "has laid the foundations.

We have come from very far away.

We had to make reforms for the fight against poverty. 4 years later, we are in the right place.

People can see.

There are things that were never done in the past, there is evolution.

A lot of things have been done".

What about the rule of law?

"The rule of law is opposed to arbitrariness. It is a state where all citizens are equal, a state that values justice and equity," she replies.

To illustrate this, she recalls that "it is the first time that we have seen the close collaborators of the Head of State before a judge.

There is the separation of powers.

It is he who is the guarantor of the proper functioning institutions, but he cannot intervene.

He said that he was not yet very satisfied with the way justice is done in the country".

This is what prompted him to create the Sacred Union to "bring people around his vision.

That's what the Head of State wanted.

Everything else is a question organization.

The President of the Republic did not want a parallel government or parallel Parliament.

There is coordination.

It is not the jungle.

It is not enough to make a declaration to join the Sacred Union.

All those who think they adhere to the vision of the Head of State" can join the Sacred Union.
