No argument on the super profit tax - I hope that it gets pulled on stupidity.
In regards to the corporate mining tax rate:
The DRC at 30% is on terms with Australia and Canada.
The DRC increased royalty rate for copper/cobalt goes from 2% up to 3.5%.
Australia has royalties for copper ranging from 4-7% state dependent.
Canada has royalties for copper ranging from 5-14%.
So comparing to other countries is only going to see one realize that the DRC is merely catching up in terms of comparative international mining tax.
The only harbinger I see a true reason for share price uncertainty is this super tax cloud.
