Equity in the Manono Project Favourable discussions continue with senior ministers on securing extra equity in the project from AVZ’s Joint Venture partners, La Congolaise D’Exploration Miniere and also with Dathomir Mining Resources SARL.
AVZ’s Managing Director, Nigel Ferguson said: “The Company remains on track to deliver its Definitive Feasibility Study in Q1 2020. We continue to investigate our export routes and are looking to secure DRC Government benefits by way of supportive tax incentives and exemptions early in 2020. “Furthermore, we are in ongoing discussions with a number of interested parties around longer term partnerships involving offtake and debt financing.
