AVZ Discussion 2022

[Rechnerhand]

Pretty sure Zijin developed the three areas shown below around CD. The area in the middle on the eastern most part borders 4029 and you can see in the last photo where their construction meets the border

Looks to me as though they're using the tailings as aggregate for the road surface. I can't say for certain and perhaps it's an absurd suggestion (I don't know the properties of the tailings), but having spent a lot of hours looking over aerials of the DRC, mapping roads and rail, I can say a similar pattern appears all over the country. Unpaved roads need ongoing maintenance and must be built up so that water will run off. They scrape material from nearby areas wherever the material is suitable.

My memory is a bit foggy on this but some years ago there was an interview with AVZ staff holding the fort at Manono. During the interview a Chinese bulldozer attempted to enter our site and was turned back. The operator claimed to be trying to get material for road maintenance. Again, my memory is foggy on this so take it or leave it.

I should add that our interpretations are not mutually exclusive. The road goes straight to the tailings so we could both be accurate.

Didn't Klaus have some connection to the tailings? Aside from them both being a waste product I mean.

He was also involved with the scam to steal our northern section, claimed a finders fee if I recall. Perhaps it makes sense for the criminals to start with the tailings owned by their associates while the ownership of our north is contested in the international courts.

Most shareholders got an email or letter over the last week explaining everything. Obviously you aren't in that group.

I sent a email to the company and recieved no reply

I've been a shareholder for so long that they sent me a fax instead of an email

There might be a reason for that.

probably same reason your dog has diabetes and you spend a $100 per week for peanut butter.

This was the Tantalex report on the tailings

Manono Tailings

PROJECTS Click To Enlarge Photo Manono Tailings MANONO, DRC ⁓ The project covers 105 million mt over 11 dumps, containing Lithium, Tin and Tantalum. ⁓ 13’000m of air-core drilling has been completed on half of the tailings.

Or for 421 pages of detail by Tantalex, there’s this

The article (linked below) has good information, including studies carried out by (KoBold linked) Bloomberg showing how cheap it is to process minerals at Manono

An ECA commissioned study was carried out by BloombergNEF and financed by several donors, including the AfDB, to assess the DRC’s potential to attract investment for battery minerals development. It discovered that installing a plant that could process 10,000 tons of minerals per year (cobalt, lithium, manganese, nickel and copper) would cost $117m in the US, $112m in China, $65m in Poland and only $39m in the DRC. In other words, the cost is almost three times less in the DRC than in China and half as in Poland.

Tantalex is focused on the exploration and development of battery minerals in Manono, DRC, the rising hub for lithium, tin and tantalum.
