IVN's projects in DRC will not be frozen......as some have suggested. The idea that the current government or any successive government in DRC will stonewall IVN's projects is preposterous. These mega-mining projects spur significant infrastructure advancement and generate tons of wealth for a relatively impoverished nation. Nationalization of the country's natural resources is the worst case scenario, but is highly unlikely because of the potentially painful rebuke from DRC's largest trading partner - China.
