I will agree on : If AVZ doesn't obtain (forever) a mining license from the DRC, the CATH TIA is the least of our worries. I believe (as you stated in some of your writings, "imo") CATH will stick around as long as there is a chance that AVZ gets the license. I really think that losing CATH as a partner would not be the end of the world. All the big boys would happily jump to invest in AVZ. Say maybe RIO, ALB, LG and etc. I would rather have them partnered with a western ally company rather than the Chinese, anyway.
