Clearly you haven't done all your research and compared royalties amongst countries. https://www.bloomberg.com/gadfly/articles/2018-03-12/taxes-aren-t-the-real-problem-with-congo-mining As for Glencore, they have been building the debt into Katanga mining for sometime with high interest prepayments to the company forcing Gécamines to take action. Gertler is just timing to this force royalty payments to which Glencore has been compliant. Even do, it's going to be tough for him in an English court to claim these royalty payments given that the US treasury has listed as a sanctioned individual. Interestingly, the number one country with the highest royalties is Canada and guess who has a project there, that's right Sayona mining. So yeah, You are 2019 might weed out juniors with poorer low grade projects and that's clearly not the case with AVZ. As for fund managers, I'm pretty sure the Van Eck has better knowledge of the situation with its 40 mil. shares as opposed to individual traders making emotional decisions and taking things out of context to promote their position. Long investing here represents an investment in providing sustainability for the future, and reducing toxic pollution levels so people that can breathe easier and live. A lot less selfish than shorting for pure selfish motives IMO.
