    UPDATE 1-Congo's Kabila signs into law new mining code

    DAKAR, March 9 (Reuters) - Democratic Republic of Congo President Joseph Kabila signed into law on Friday a new mining code that raises royalties and taxes on operators, the presidency said in a statement.

    International mining companies that operate in Congo, Africa’s top copper producer, have vigorously opposed the new law, although Kabila pledged this week to work with them while implementing it.

    The law, passed by parliament in late January, replaces an earlier code from 2002. It raises royalties on minerals across the board and removes a clause that protected miners from changes to the fiscal and customs regime for 10 years.

    Executives from Glencore, Randgold, China Molybdenum and Ivanhoe failed to convince Kabila during a six-hour meeting on Wednesday to re-open negotiations over the code, which they say will deter investment and violate existing agreements.

    The two sides agreed, however, to open negotiations next week over measures to implement the code, and Mines Minister Martin Kabwelulu said the companies’ concerns would be considered on a case-by-case basis.

    Royalties on cobalt, a vital component in electric car batteries, could increase fivefold to 10 percent if the government designates the metal a “strategic substance”. The law also introduces a windfall profits tax.

    The Democratic Republic of Congo imminent law that more than double the tax miners operating in the country pay on exports of cobalt, will severely affect buyers of the metal, a key component in the lithium-ion batteries that power electric cars and mobile phones.

    “Given the tight nature of the cobalt market at present, we would expect miners to attempt to pass through higher royalty costs to consumers,” Colin Hamilton, an analyst at BMO, said in a note quoted by FT.com.

    British corporate advisor Numis Securities went even further, saying that higher royalties will deter investment in Congo, leading to skyrocketing cobalt prices.

    Trent Mell, President and CEO of Canada's First Cobalt (TSX-V, ASX:FCC), agrees. He told MINING.com last month the new rules were just “one more reason” for investors like his company to look elsewhere.

    The African nation, responsible for about two thirds of global cobalt output, has been evaluating a major revision to its 2002 Mining Code since December. Already approved by lawmakers, it’s just waiting for President Joseph Kabila to sign it into a law, which — as he said Wednesday after a meeting with mining companies — is ready to do “shortly.”

    While the companies failed to persuade Kabila not to sign the law, “the president did promise to continue further discussions with us,” Jerry Jiao, CEO of MMG Ltd, one of the firms that attended the meeting, told Bloomberg.

    The new mining code qualifies cobalt as a “strategic commodity” and so increases royalty on exports of that metal to 5% from 2%. Taxes on base metals, in turn, will rise to 3.5%.

    Cobalt prices went ballistic last year, with the metal quoted on the London Metal Exchange ending 2017 at $75,500, a 129% annual surge sparked by intensifying supply fears and an expected demand spike from battery markets.

    Top mining companies including Glencore (LON:GLEN), Randgold Resources (LON:RRS), China Molybdenum (HKG:3993) and Ivanhoe Mines currently operate in the DRC.

    Ivanhoe Mines announces a new
    Mineral Resource estimate for the Kipushi Mine that increases
    zinc-rich Measured and Indicated Resources by 16%
    and copper-rich Measured and Indicated Resources by 40%

    “Kipushi operated for more than 60 years as a high-grade copper mine, with significant germanium production, before it was placed on care-and-maintenance in the 1990s. With continued exploration success, we are confident Kipushi could remain in production for at least several more decades.

    erg gedaald va hoogste koers,terwijl er steeds meer bewezen resources zijn bijgekomen.
    Politiek gedoe met aangepaste mining codes heeft vertrouwen verslechterd.

    Maar de CHINEZEN zagen daar blijkbaar geen belemmering in om toch tekopen opC$3,68 voor 800 miljoen C$dollar.

    Dus nu op 2,35 lijkt zeer kansrijk.

    Zelf bijgekocht op 2,27 vrijdag.

    Ben benieuwd pers bericht morgen.

    Zijn er nog anderen hier die IVANHOE hebben?

    Chinezen hebben wat minder problemen met politiek gedoe. Daarom zitten ze erin.

    Kan natuurlijk best dat het allemaal meevalt op de lange duur, maar ik vind de DRC (en zuid afrika wat minder)toch net wat te tricky. Maar als je van een beetje risico houdt lijkt het me een mooi instapmoment.
