Why Has Fat Tail Holdings Sought the Removal of AVZ Minerals' Directors?
Fat Tail Holdings Initiates Legal Action Against AVZ Minerals and Directors
Fat Tail Holdings Pty Ltd has taken a significant legal step against AVZ Minerals Limited, a prominent player in the Australian mining sector. The lawsuit, filed on December 15, 2023, in the Supreme Court of Western Australia, targets not only the company but also two of its high-ranking executives - Nigel Ferguson and John Clarke.
Allegations of Oppressive Actions Against Shareholders
Central to Fat Tail's legal action are allegations of oppressive conduct towards shareholders. This claim, if proven, could indicate serious governance issues within AVZ Minerals. Additionally, the lawsuit accuses both Mr. Ferguson and Mr. Clarke of engaging in misleading or deceptive conduct, casting a shadow over their leadership.
Seeking Removal of Ferguson and Clarke

ousted but also barred from re-election for a period of 24 months or longer, as the court deems fit. This move underscores the severity of the accusations and the potential impact on the company's leadership structure.
Failed Board Appointments and AGM Tensions
The roots of the dispute trace back to the company's 2023 Annual General Meeting (AGM), where Fat Tail and its associates unsuccessfully attempted to nominate certain individuals to AVZ Minerals’ board. This legal action seems to be a continuation of that conflict, possibly linked to previous allegations by Fat Tail regarding the management of the company’s Manono Project in the northern region.
AVZ Minerals' Response and Focus
Despite the legal turmoil, AVZ Minerals asserts its commitment to advancing the development of the Manono Project. The company pledges to keep its shareholders updated on any developments, indicating an effort to maintain transparency and focus amidst challenging circumstances.
A Broader Perspective
This legal battle represents not just a conflict between a shareholder and a mining company but also highlights broader issues of corporate governance and shareholder rights in the mining industry. The outcome of this case could set precedents affecting corporate practices and investor relations in the sector.
The Road Ahead
As the legal proceedings unfold, the financial and corporate worlds will closely monitor the developments. The implications of this lawsuit extend beyond AVZ Minerals, offering insights into the dynamics of corporate governance, shareholder activism, and ethical business practices in the competitive world of mining.

Intel’s been lagging behind for years, while AMD has pulled far ahead in both consumer and professional-grade chips, it’s really not a close race anymore.
There’s this idea floating around that throwing enough cash at Intel will suddenly turn them into the next TSMC. But semiconductor manufacturing isn’t something you can

rush, it’s a complex, slow-moving process that takes years of precision and experience.
Intel could recover some ground eventually, but framing them as the savior of American chipmaking feels more like a political talking point than a practical reality.
