    This looks like the previous JVA contract (it's in French): https://www.mines-rdc.cd/resourcecontracts/contract/ocds-591adf-4534496341

    Location - Deposits in the territory of Manono, Katanga province.

    Name of company created - Manono Minerals (MANOMIN), 32% owned by COMINIERE and 68% owned by DBB (I think MMCS has an interest in DBB as from announcement "third party that previously held an indirect interest", also fits with what articles have suggested that MMCS had a 68% holding in MANOMIN).

    Name of company executing document - DBB Resources Corporation, a company registered in the British Virgin Islands (DBB); The Congolese Mining Company (Cominière)
