The AVZ - CATH deal was never completed, so no need to talk about pre-emptive rights there.
AVZI intended to exercise its pre-emptive right to buy 15% from Cominière before ceding 10% to the DRC as per mining legislation.
Cominière never corresponded the agreed price with Zijin to AVZI the owner of 75% of Dathcom.
Pre-emptive rights are not an auction for shares.
AVZI was supposed to be given the Pre-emptive right, ie. the shares should have been offered to AVZI under the same condition as to Zijin.
That is why AVZI asked 'What is the deal'.
AVZI never got an answer on that request, because nobody in their bright mind would say $34 million, plus an X amount in brown paper bags.
Even CKK is not that stupid.
If AVZI, as NF says owns 75%, would have been able to exercise its pre-emptive right and buy Cominière's 15% and the remaining 10% was ceded to the DRC, who does Nigel have to tell that he is going to sell 24% out of his 75 + 15 = 90%?
Right he has to tell before the event the Dathcom BoD, AVZ!/AVZ BoD and the DRC Government about the deal (and through this all shareholders involved).
The DRC's 10% is free carried, that is part of the deal.
If the DRC. wishes to retain 25% than that is not free carried, that is why 10%, as per legislation.
The reason AVZ made the CATH deal public is because of the funding of the project.
However, talking about blind Freddy, even blind Freddy knows there is no need to give Cominière pre-emptive rights, because at that stage Cominière and Dathomir would be out of the equation and not in the need to know circle.
All IMO
