Likewise. I have asked if I can have them in my fund and share account. I'm awaiting a reply.

Have raised cash to progress an update to their Sturec resource:

Paul Kabuswe and Hakainde Hichilema making the case for investment in Zambia on their recent visit to the US, from around 15 mins 20 secs https://www.facebook.com/people/Ministry-of-Mines-and-Minerals-Development-Zambia/100069261307422/
Coincided with the news that Kobold are investing $150m there.

I've lifted this from the PXC site. A decent and detailed article on the forthcoming supply issues: https://aheadoftheherd.com/why-the-upcoming-copper-supply-deficit-cant-be-easily-fixed-richard-mills/

I use this: https://tradingeconomics.com/commodity/copper
I don't know if it's the most reliable or not, but there's plenty of other info there too.

Wicket, I have asked this before but I'm still none the wiser. Normally news has to be released if it would have a material effect on the share price, but when the shares aren't being traded maybe not. Anyone who actually knows? ....

I doubt if dealing with the FSA has to be this long especially given that the prospectus was 'at an advanced stage' on 24th Dec. My hope is that they are waiting for the relisting to coincide with a blockbusting piece of news, otherwise I expect Spks will be right.

OK, so it's not us, but it does show that things are progressing in Zambia now that the cadastre audit has been completed. Arc/AAL next?

Arc Minerals* (ARCM LN) 2.98p, Mkt Cap £34m – Arc extends exclusivity agreement for Anglo American

Arc Minerals has extended the exclusivity agreement previously agreed with Anglo Exploration Zambia Ltd for a second time.

The new agreement will run to 8th February 2023.

Arc’s press release says “following the re-opening of the Zambian Mining Cadastre office on 19 October 2022, the Cadastre published a schedule that it will start receiving new applications for licenses from 21 November 2022. As a result of the Cadastre process and this new timeline Arc has extended the exclusivity period under the Letter Agreement (the "Agreement") with Anglo Exploration Zambia Ltd ("Anglo") to 8 February 2023, pursuant to which the parties intend to form a joint venture with respect to the Company's copper projects located in the North-Western province of Zambia (the "Joint Venture").”

The relatively new President Hakainde Hichilema, known as HH, was elected in August 2021 overthrowing Edgar Lungu who had previously jailed HH on illegitimate charges of treason.

President Hichilema was previously CEO of Coopers and Lybrand Zambia from 1994–1998 and Grant Thornton Zambia from 1998–2006.

The president has been busy unwinding corrupt practices and corruption in Zambia including allegations of corruption within the Zambian Ministry of Mines.

Conclusion: Now the Zambian Cadastre is open again for new license applications we expect Anglo’s lawyers to be able to verify the licenses and ownership information they require to consummate the agreed deal with Arc Minerals

*SP Angel acts as Nomad and broker. An SP Angel analyst has driven across the Zambian copper belt, flying the British flag, to visit Arc’s licenses West of Solwezi.

Not sure that the actual date is particularly important. It could be announced before, but if not I don't suppose Arc will decide they no longer want to deal with AAL (or vice versa).

Ridiculous isn't it. I fully understand why some feel that this drivel should be rebutted in case people believe it, but personally I take the view that it will make no difference in the long run for LTHs and I choose to ignore it.

More on Think Reality VXR. Of interest to me as a holder both here and at Engage XR.

A bit more detail here than in some of the other recent articles: https://theexchange.africa/industry-and-trade/zambia-to-make-further-cuts-to-copper-mining-royalties/

If it's ok to share it on a Telegram group, then I reckon it should be ok to share it here too. Like Bankruptcy, I don't use a smartphone and that shouldn't be the criterion by which people have or don't have information. I wonder if this sort of information could be communicated by RNS on a regular basis, by way of a general update. I don't expect the company to inform shareholders of every operational decision they make like a running commentary, but the information here, cumulatively, adds up to quite a lot. Perhaps an update every 3 months or so would be appropriate, obviously in addition to any news which has to be issued immediately. That aside, I should add I am pleased with the progress and the rationale for the decisions made and I'm very happy to hold.

I did. See my post of 28th May. Be patient.

I'm not expecting an announcement to mark the end of the 90 days. It's already clear that DD and negotiation of the JV doc are running concurrently. We'll get news when it's finalised.

To me it implies that they won't be in a hurry to relist until they have some blockbusting news to release at the same time, in order to boost the SP over the 5 days from relisting.
