Ann: Cornerstone investor secured for Manono Project, page-149

I like that it's a Chinese partner too. In my view, that lowers the political risk in the DRC quite a bit.

Not there yet - but as everyone is saying, this is a significant step. It's significantly de-risked the project in terms of funding, offtakes, political risk. Puts me onto 'buy' as a sentiment at this price.

Thanks to the many LT contributors (like Mining8) who have provided commentary over the last few years. I only got into AVZ when it had that big pull back a few years ago. Got in looking for a small trade on the bounce - and I've never left. HC is not investment advice, but sometimes it helps to have folks who have been around in a stock and the industry longer than I have to point a few things out. Thanks guys your time and willingness to share your views has been appreciated. .
