      :cool::cool: moin moin, heute mal ein sehr interessanter wert der in sowohl in london als auch in dtl. gehandelt wird. die letzten tage nach längerer ruhephase sind vermehrt umsätze zu beobachten: wer?

      Marakand Minerals Ltd. A0BKt6

      es gab im letzten Jahr (märz 2005) eine Empfehlung durch
      RBC Capital Markets, welche man auf der sehr informativen Hompage von Marakand nachlesen kann
      www.marakand.co.uk
      der wert wurde auch hier schon ein paar mal diskutiert....

      was hat sich geändert und macht die sache jetzt spannend?

      hier die letzte empfehlung: die fakten sind sehr sehr vielversprechend und so eine aktie passt in jedes ressourcendepot der versch. börsenbriefe - also vorher dabei sein! alles was man vorhatte um in der lage zu sein die produktion zu starten ist vollbracht - 1.halbjahr ist der start geplant !

      Marakand Minerals (WKN:A0BKT6). Das englische Explorationsunternehmen sitzt auf rund 1 Mio. Tonnen Zink und mehr als 120 Millionen Unzen Silber in Kasachstan und Usbekistan . Dazu kommen grosse Gold- und Kupfervorkommnisse. Der Gesamtwert der Ressourcen uebersteigt den Betrag von 4 Milliarden US-Dollar bei den heutigen Edelmetallpreisen deutlich . Die Boerse hingegen gibt sich bescheiden, denn Marakand ist gerade mal mit 30 Millionen Dollar bewertet. Dies entspricht 0,75% der Minenwerte. Bereits 2007 soll der Rubel rollen. Mehr als 100 Millionen Dollar will das Unternehmen jaehrlich erloesen. Dabei soll ein satter Gewinn herausspringen. Dem Abbau steht eigentlich nichts mehr im Weg - die Behoerden unterstuetzen das Vorhaben, nun begann die Endphase in der Planung der Abbaustrategien.

      Marakand ist ein Spin-Off der englischen Oxus Gold (PKS:OXUSF), die gleichzeitig mit 57% die Aktienmehrheit haelt. Das Management um CEO Alasdair Stuart kann als sehr erfahren angesehen werden. Zusammengezählt verfuegen die Manager über 50 Jahre Erfahrung in der Explorationsindustrie und 20 Jahre davon in Zentralasien. Die Aktie von Marakand wird am 31. Januar 2006 in Frankfurt zu 0,28 Euro gehandelt. Das Papier waere bereits heute mit 1 Euro nicht zu hoch bewertet, beachtet man die ausgezeichneten Aussichten und die projizierten Umsaetze. Kann mit den Arbeiten wie geplant bereits 2006 begonnen werden, sollte dies die Aktie sprichwoertlich befluegeln. Kurse um 2,50 Euro scheinen da ploetzlich absolut plausibel. Kann Marakand seine Kapazitaeten in 3 bis 5 Jahren vollstaendig ausschoepfen, besteht sogar die Moeglichkeit, dass aus dem kleinen Sternchen ein Boersenstar wird. Stelle man sich nur ein GpA von 0,50 Euro vor - bei einem Branchendurchschnitts-KGV von 21 vor. Wer den spaeten Einstieg im Minensektor nicht mehr wagt, sollte sich wenigstens die Zeit nehmen, die Aktie auf die Watchlist (Linktipp:onvista.de) zu setzen.

      Das sollten Sie beachten:

      PRO

      -extrem tiefe Bewertung in Anbetracht der Zukunftsperspektiven
      -erfahrenes Management/ Knowhow
      -Edelmetallhausse
      -Marktgebiet Zentralasien

      CONTRA

      -marktenger Titel
      -noch hat der Abbau nicht begonnen und es wurden keine Umsaetze/Gewinne generiert
      -der Bewilligungsprozess ist immer noch im Gange

      Grasgrnr hat ein sehr gutes übersicht gegeben und Marakand hat noch mehr gute seiten die nicht in sein beitrag standen. So sind zum beispiel möglicherweise mit exploration die resourcen noch viel weiter zu erweiteren.

      Aber es gibt auch einige problemen mit Marakand. Das wichtigste: es gibt kein minengenehmigung! Und ohne geht es einfach nicht. Es gibt so weit ich weiss nicht wirklicht problemen mit die regierung, aber Marakand wollte ein genehmigung basiert auf consessions und die regierung ein Joint Venture. Marakand hat zugegeben un ein neue antrag eingegeben (ich glaube rund anfang december) Es ist nicht sicher das es überhaupt ein genehmigung geben wirt!!! Die minenbau dauert rund anderhalb jahr. Das heisst: erst genehmigung, dann financierung und dann minenbau. Produktion nicht vor ende 2007 und dann muss es schnell gehen mit licence und financierung.

      Jeder die sich vor Marakand interessiert soll wissen das die chancen sehr hoch sind aber das risiko auch! Ich habe selbst eine kleine position und kaufe weiter wenn es ein licence gibt.

      Alles natürlich nur ein meinung und jeder soll sich selbst ein meinung bilden.

      Mehr info:
      - Die website http://www.marakand.co.uk. Mein tipp: nimmt dir zeit alles gut zu lesen. Es gibt sehr viel info auf diese site.
      - Das discussionsboard auf http://www.advfn.com

      nice to see you here and thanks for your informations.
      die variante mit dem jv wird eindeutig befürwortet und vorangetrieben.
      aufgrund der erfahrungen im umgang mit den behörden bisher - denke ich das beide seiten wissen wie wichtig die austehende genehmigung ist. beide können nur profitieren wenn es die genehmigung gibt.
      mit der mutter Oxus Gold (PKS:OXUSF) im rücken ist der notwendige finazielle rückhalt und techn. unterstützung vorhanden - und oxus hat sich sehr gute leute für marakand ins boot geholt!
      no risk no fun - das ist auch bei marakand klar, aber bei welchem explorer ist das nicht so!
      den produktionstart würde ich bei lizenzerhalt nicht ende 2007 sehen, sondern eher 2006 - bis die volle kapazität läuft, ja, ende 2007
      was die geldbeschaffung betrifft - das sollte angesichts der vorhandenen reserven kein problem sein!

      [posting]20.079.185 von grasgrner am 07.02.06 12:32:36[/posting]Danke dir für die neue thread. Marakand verdient wirklich mehr ´attention´ (kann das deutsche wort nicht errinneren)

      - Financierung. Sehe ich auch nicht wirklich problemen. Marakand kann hier profitieren von die kontakten von Oxus. Mann soll sich realisieren das alles fertig ist. Die feasibility study war sehr positiv bei wesentlich niedrigere rohstoffpreisen. Aber es kann daueren und es gibt nie 100% sicherkeit und es gibt warscheinlich verwässerung. Man soll einfach realisieren das financierung noch kommt.

      - Genehmigung. Logischerweise soll die kommen, wie du sagst. Aber leider ist es nicht immer logisch. Sehe z.B. die problemen von Oxus bei Jerooy die momentan spielen es ist sehr die frage ob hier ein genehmigung kommt. Und MArakand versucht schon lange zeit diese genehmigung zu bekommen was auch die niedrige kurs erklärt.
      P.S. kein angst für alle die es nicht wissen: Jerooy ist in ein anderes land (nur ein beispiel). Was nach meiner meinung gut ist, ist das ´mutter´ Oxus schon eine (gold)mine in Uzbekistan hat, mann kennt schon einander.

      - Minenbau. Laut Marakand kostet das bauen von die mine 15 monaten (sehe z.B. seite 11 von die presentation aus deine posting #6). Es steht auch in andere presentationen und reports. Wenn ich gut rechne ist 2006 dan nicht möglich. In die kommunikation von Marakand wird auch 2007 gesagt.

      marakand hat eine mk von schlappen 30 mio euro!

      otd - nicht überlesen sollte man noch das zweite projekt
      in tajikistan : akjilga - 67 mio unzen silber; mindestens
      bei wahnsinns spitzenwerten on über 2000 g silber /tonne !!!!

      und dann hat marakand investoren an board deren namen nicht unbekannt sind:
      Oxus Gold
      Asset Value Investors
      RAB
      Invesco
      Carmignac
      Libra Fund

      ich denke das sehr bald news kommen werden - und wir werden schon vorher am kursverlauf merken wohin es geht!
      bei der momentanen entwicklung kann man eigentlich nicht viel verkehrt machen - marakand steht kurz vorm durchbruch,
      hat zwei super projekte mit riesigem potenzial und eine marktkapitalisierung von 30 mio euro bei einem gegenwert von mind. 3 mrd.euro

      [posting]20.081.098 von grasgrner am 07.02.06 14:34:44[/posting]Schöne volumen heute in Deutschland. Grasgrner, du hast mindestens für aufmerksamkeit gesorgt. Jetzt nur noch ein lizenz.

      Über die lizenzerteilung habe ich keine recente berichten. Das letzte ist ein email von AS in ein posting auf advfn anfang januar (sehe unten). Ich habe selbst ähnliche emails aus nov/dec. Es ist einfach ein ´waiting game´. Ich bleibe die aktie vorläufig folgen und werde news/gerüchte hier posten, so lange diese thread aktiv ist. Ich versuch auch mal ein posting zu schreiben über was ich in die letzte 10 monate über MKD gelernt habe. Aber das kann einige tagen dauern. Auch ist das meiste heute schon gesagt in diese thread.

      Auf das 2. projekt soll man nach meiner meinung weniger achten. Hier gibt es, wenn meine information gut ist, wirklich problemen mit die regierung. Hoffentlich löst sich das, aber ich bin nicht sehr positiv.

      Alles wie immer nur ein meinung...

      We continue to engage the govt on this matter, all constitutive documentation has been submitted and we await their comments. The project is in the National Investment Program for 2006 which confirms their desire for us to commence development next year. We appreciate your patience and support for what is undoubtedly a great opportunity, especially in the current commodity environment.

      [posting]20.096.285 von grasgrner am 08.02.06 12:47:37[/posting]Wirklich schöne präsentation. Die highlights :

      - resource value at current prices: 4.9 billion USD (Khandiza 4.33 billion)
      - bei produktion ist Marakand ein von die top 35 zink producenten, und mit sehr niedrige kosten
      - at current prices payback time für die mine: 0,7 jahr !!!
      - projekt ist in die national investment akt of Uzbekistan für 2006
      - sehe das exploration potential an: 34 targets
      - auch rund Khandiza und für Khandiza selbst noch potential
      - Marakand ist schon sehr weit bei neue projekten in die Turkei uund Cyprus (due diligence)

      Auch wenn diese Firma pleite geht und ich ein totalverlust habe. Die präsentationen sind sehr gut...

      [posting]20.109.233 von otd am 08.02.06 23:34:48[/posting]:cool::cool: sie wird nicht pleite gehen.........dazu steckt schon zuviel geld drin (ich weiß es ist keine garantie, aber eine gewisse absicherung nach unten), sowohl von oxus+partner als auch von der usbekischen seite!

      das land steht momentan ein wenig im schatten von kasachstan und ist dringend auf ausländische investoren angewiesen um mit seinen unbestritten sehr großen rohstoffvorkommen harte devisen zu verdienen - es auch verständlich das sie versuchen das beste dabei herauszuholen, was die verzögerungen verständlich macht.

      trotzdem steht meine einschätzung: 1.Q/2.Q kommt das JV + Linzenzerteilung zustande und spätestens 3 Tage später steht der kurs mind. über 1,...Euro!

      Wenn das JV kommt ist m.E. nach die Genehmigung nur noch Formsache.

      Die Prodkutionsaufnahme 2007 oder 2008 ist realistisch...falls die Genehmigung noch im ersten HJ. kommt.

      produktionstart: da hab ich noch einen anderen gedanken:

      die leute von marakand haben ihre beziehungen und werden sicherlich schon zügig erfahren wanns soweit ist - warum sollte "ich" als unternhemen dann nicht schon die zeit des wartens einfach nutzen und weiterarbeiten als ob die lizenz da wäre; nicht einfach warten, sondern schon vorarbeiten um den produktionsstart nicht weiter hinauszuzögern.
      die nutzung ist auf 15 jahre erstmal festgeschrieben, also je länger "ich" brauche um nach förderlizenzerteilung wirklich loszulegen umso kürzer ist meine eigentliche produktionszeit = geldverdienen
      ich denke das sie aber so clever sein werden; o.s.ä.:laugh:

      This sounds very cautious to say the least:


      In response to your queries I can confirm that we work continually toward getting the final jv approvals granted on terms favourable to Mkd. There are signs things are starting to move forward now but I caution we are dealing with a large number of govt depts over which we have no control on their priorities/deadlines, we have been asked to be patient and a result forthcoming ‘soon’. Please be reassured that Mkd, with the full support of the Oxus group, does all it can to bring to account these good projects. The market has missed the value in the project given recent commodity prices and this is a great disappointment to us all.

      Marakand Minerals Interim Results

      RNS Number:3239Z
      Marakand Minerals Limited
      06 March 2006




      Interim Results for the six months ended 31 December 2005

      Marakand Minerals Limited ("Marakand" or "the Company") is pleased to announce
      its interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2005.

      Highlights include:

      * Khandiza Project included in the Uzbekistan National Investment Program
      for 2006, per Presidential Decree No. 251 dated 15 November 2005.

      * Exclusive option agreements signed to acquire majority interests in
      two separate copper / gold exploration license areas located in southern
      Turkey. Due diligence expected to be completed by end of March 2006.

      Khandiza Project (Uzbekistan)
      Marakand has reached agreement in principle with its Uzbek partner,
      Goscomgeology, on the project`s Joint Venture legal and financial
      documentation. Recent changes to the Uzbek tax code have been
      incorporated, which will improve the cashflow to Marakand. This has been
      submitted to the Government. The Khandiza Project is included in the
      National Investment Program for 2006, per Presidential Decree No. 251
      dated 15 November 2005. Marakand continues to engage all levels of
      national, local and regional Government in an effort to secure the
      Khandiza license.

      Uzbek Exploration
      Limited exploration work was carried out during the second half of 2005,
      pending final approval of the Khandiza Project by the Uzbek Government,
      which is to include the associated exploration territories. Sulukul, on the
      Yakkabag Ridge, remains a priority target for further exploration, where
      three zones of massive sulphide mineralization have been identified on
      surface over a strike length of over 750m.

      Akjilga Silver Project (Tajikistan)
      Marakand has submitted an updated work programme and budget for the 2006 field
      season to Tajik Geology. Tajik Geology has advised Marakand that the Tajik
      Government is still reviewing Marakand`s license application and will be
      referring the documentation to the Licensing Tender Committee during March 2006.

      Corporate Activity
      Marakand has signed exclusive option agreements to acquire majority interests in
      two separate copper / gold license areas located in the prospective southern
      Turkish `ophiolite belt` related to the Cyprus Arc, and host Cyprus-type copper
      / gold mineralisation. Exploration works, including surface drilling, have
      previously been undertaken on both license areas and the Company is currently
      compiling and interpreting this data toward developing its work programme for
      2006.

      Legal and technical due diligence processes are well advanced and expected to be
      completed by the end of March 2006.

      Financial Results
      The company had $625,000 cash at the end of the review period and cash
      utilisation is within budget. Marakand does not plan to undertake any further
      fundraising until the final Khandiza Project approvals are granted and / or the
      other exploration projects are firmly secured. Any short term funding needs will
      be underwritten by Oxus Gold plc if required.

      Marakand Minerals is a mining exploration and development company focused in
      Central Asia and listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) in London,
      stock exchange symbol MKD.L.

      NOTES

      1. These Interim Consolidated Financial Statements follow the same
      accounting policies and their methods of application as the 2005 accounts.
      Not all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for
      annual financial statements are present, and accordingly, these Interim
      Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the
      Company`s 2005 audited consolidated financial statements.

      Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to account
      presentation in the current year.

      The Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, including comparatives, have been
      prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

      2. The basic and diluted loss per share has been calculated by
      reference to a loss, after taxation, of $1,241,000 (December 2004: $1,280,000
      loss) (June 2005: $2,786,000 loss) and the weighted average number of ordinary
      shares in issue of 101,023,490 (December 2004: 101,008,663) (June 2005:
      101,015,157). Diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number
      of shares in issue for the period plus potential dilutive ordinary shares
      arising from share options and warrants for the period.

      3. The Directors are not declaring a dividend for this period.

      4. Copies of this report are being sent to all shareholders.

      Denn warum sollte man(usbekst.gouverm.) denn sonst ein Projekt in dieser größenordnung ins programm nehmen, wenn man nicht davon ausgeht es zur produktion zu bringen!
      schließlich ist es auch ein vertrauensbeweis in marakand - man weiß um deren kompetenz und qualität der bisherigen arbeit!

      ... in due course = zur rechten Zeit .
      Wann könnte das denn sein? Wir warten ja nun schon ziemlich lang auf eine Nachricht, daß die Dinge in Bewegung kommen. Dabei denke ich primär gar nicht mal an die Börsenkurse, sondern eher daran, daß dort endlich mal die Arbeit begonnen wird.
      Die Kurse werden sich danach hoffentlich auch ordentlich bewegen.

      Oxus May Be Bringing Marakand In From The Cold

      By Jack Hammer

      Is it hubris or unbridled optimism that leads Oxus on in its dealings with the Kyrgyz government? Oxus states in its interim results, released recently, that Jerooy has now been 80 per cent completed “pending reinstatement”. This project has been “pending reinstatement” ever since it was suspended the first time back in 2004. The company has been confident ever since that Jerooy would be reinstated - getting on for two years later Oxus’ chief executive Bill Trew says: “Everybody’s accepted it’s an important issue that needs to be resolved. Both parties seem to be negotiating in good faith”. Executive director Richard Wilkins is out in Bishkek now, conducting the negotiations, although these haven’t been helped by an article which appeared on Oxus’s website falsely stating that the Kyrgyz prime minister had been convicted of stealing gold. “It doesn’t help. I don’t think he’s forgiven me,” says Mr Trew, “But we’re still very hopeful of a solution at Jerooy.”

      Oxus has plenty of other irons in the fire – it’s on the hunt for deals, profits are up, it’s building new mines, it has closed its hedge book, but Jerooy remains the litmus test. Analyst comment on the recent interims was muted – the only Oxus watcher who even bothered putting pen to paper was Charles Kernot at Seymour Pierce and all he wrote was a one-line remark noting that the results were “broadly in line with expectations”. In conversation he’s unequivocal, though: “The key, of course, is Jerooy”, he says. “The company might end up writing off the US$47million it’s spent, and that would materially affect my valuations”. Mr Kernot’s former protégé, Jonathan Guy at Seymour Pierce, thinks similarly: “The real issue with Oxus is, and will continue to be, Jerooy”. But both are supporters of Oxus. “From the headlines I’m quite relaxed”, says Mr Kernot. “The company should be on track to hit my US$11million forecast.”

      With all that out in the open it’s interesting to contemplate what Bill Trew will do next. “We’re constantly trying to grow,” he says, and he means several things by that. More tonnes are going through at Amantaytau than ever before, although the number of ounces produced in the six months to December fell from last year’s 88,822 to 84,119 as grades and recoveries both dipped. But the company is now looking to mine down to the sulphides and has also just started mining silver and gold from the neighbouring Vysokovoltnoye project. That counts as three mines, and puts Mr Trew on track to meet his eye-catching 2004 target of building five mines in five years.

      He’s moved on from there though. “That’s an old target,” he says, “and we’re very comfortable with it. But the new target is seven mines in seven years”. He highlights the recent appointment of former Anglo geologist Gordon Wylie whose purpose in Oxus is to get the company’s mineable reserve up to 10 million ounces. That goal will be more easily achieved if Mr Trew succeeds in his plans to bring in new assets. “We’re going to make a number of forays. We’ll be very, very aggressive on acquisitions over the next few months,” he says, although this time round it won’t be RAB’s Philip Richards pulling the strings. “Philip hasn’t got anything of interest to me at the moment,” he says, “but in the last couple of months we’ve been in discussions with 8 different companies”.

      The recent stakebuilding in Marakand points one way forward. The plan there is to acquire a new asset and pair it up with Marakand’s Khandiza. “It wasn’t a mistake to spin out Marakand at the time,” Mr Trew reminisces, “I thought it was a good idea. But then I changed my mind. The market has no idea what it’s got there – there’s US$5billion worth of metals in the ground. But polymetallics are just not that sexy”. So it looks as though Marakand is coming back in from the cold.

      Komisch ist das ja schon. Erst macht man einen Spin-off und dann holt man sich mehr als 80% der Aktien zurück. Wie ist das wohl zu interpretieren? Aus dem Interview lese ich das man doch etwas vom Markt enttäuscht war, das dieser trotz der fehlenden Zulassungen Marakand nicht höher bewertet hat...

Ich kann nicht verstehen warum management und institutionelle investoren die aktien an oxus verkauft haben. Wenn man Oxus anschreibt kann man die aktien in oxus-aktien umsetzen (so habe ich ein email van alasdair stuart verstanden, ich habe nicht oxs kontaktiert). Ich bin noch nicht sicher was zu tun...

      Gibt es meinungen, hat jemand die aktien umgesetzt?

      Also ich finde es bullisch wenn Oxus versucht ihr Spin off nun wieder zurück zu kaufen. Das machen die bestimmt nicht um Geld zu verschwenden.
      Das die Marakand Direktoren ihre Aktien an beherrschende Mutter abgeben ist micht dramatisch.

      sieht eher so aus als versucht Oxus still und heimlich (ohne teures Übernahmengebot) Marakand vollständig zu übernehmen.

      Dies bedeutet Marakand ist eine Perle= strong buy.

      Warum sollte Oxus sich die Aktien zurück holen um sie anschließen komplett abzuschreiben. Das macht für mich keinen Sinn und würde auch kaum von den Oxus Aktionären begrüßt.

      Die Marakand Direktoren hätten dann wohl komplett verkauft und nicht in Oxus getauscht.

      Sieht für mich so aus als wolle Oxus sein Spin Off wieder eingliedern.

      - Ich kann kaum glauben das die die termin verspäten. Das unterschied zwisschen ein 3:1 und ein 2:1 offer ist sehr wenig ´extra´ verwässerung für Oxus (1 bis 3%). Ich glaube nicht das man für so wenig verwässerung die projekte riskiert.

      First ore at Uzbek Khandiza deposit by end 2007 -Govt
      24.04.2006 16:22:28
      The production of concentrate at Uzbekistan's polymetal ore deposit Khandiza in the southern Surkhandarya region is forecast to begin at the end of 2007, the government said.

      A mining and concentrating complex is being built at the deposit to process 650,000 metric tonnes of ore a year, Dow Jones reported on Monday.

      The deposit has reserves of 14.4 million tonnes, with a silver content of 134 grams/tonne, zinc content of 7.24 grams/tonne, lead 3.5 grams/tonne, copper 0.86 gram/tonne and gold 0.38 gram/tonne, the report said.

      The zinc and copper concentrate will be supplied to the Almalyk Combine for smelting.

      UK-based Marakand Minerals is creating a joint venture with Uzbekistan's Goskomgeologia to develop the deposit at the cost of US$75 million.

      Marakand Minerals is owned by Oxus Gold Plc, which holds an exclusive license to develop the deposit. Oxus Gold Plc also has license to develop gold deposit in Uzbekistan.

      Douglas Bence: Korean conundrum for Oxus Gold

      Published: 07:00 Sunday 30 April 2006 CITYWIRE
      By Douglas Bence, Companies Correspondent

      Takeover speculation is surrounding Oxus Gold, the AIM-listed mining company supported by Prime Minister Tony Blair after it lost its licence to operate in the central Asian republic of Kyrgyzstan.

      Although the hedge fund RAB Capital has been building a stake, there has also been some as yet unidentified buying.

      RAB Capital told Oxus on 24 April that it had bought 2.6 million shares, taking its total to 64.3 million, 21.67%.

      Also increasing its holding was L-R Managers along with LLC, L-R General Partners, L.P and L-R Global Fund which together have an 8.69% stake with 25.3 million shares.

      Some of these shares probably came from Credit Suisse, which said on 13 March that it had reduced its Oxus stake to 3.57% with 10.48 million shares.

      On Tuesday 25 April more than 8.4 million Oxus shares went through the market. In the last six months the average daily volume has been a little over 877,000, in the last 12 months 1.33 million.

      Although the Prime Minister's letter to Kyrgyzstan's President Bakiyev in January was well publicised, Oxus is better known for the Amantaytau gold fields at Khandiza in Uzbekistan, which are already in production.

      Oxus has been developing the zinc, lead, silver, copper and gold deposits for the last ten years in what is understood to be a $70 million project, largely through 84%-owned Marikand Minerals.

      Talks are currently going on in the Uzbekistan capital Tashkent about an injection of new capital reported to be from a company controlled by the Korean government, but details are sketchy.

      Oxus staff in Tashkent were due to call Citywire on Friday, but failed to do so. Calls to the London office were not returned.

      There has been speculation that the Koreans may be behind the London share activity, but if this is the case then the company appears to be unaware of it.

      At the beginning of the month dealing in the shares was below average, ranging from 97,236 on 4 April to 1,020,136 on 10 April. With 1.47 million shares, activity on 13 April, the day before the Easter break, was just over average, but was nearly double that on Tuesday, 18 April and 5.3 million the day after that.

      On 20, 21 and 24 April, 2.54 million, 3.37 million and 2.47 million shares respectively went through the market. Dealings have since fallen back to below average. Between 20-26 April, the shares went from 76.25p to a high of 86p, a rise of nearly 13%.

      At the close of business on Friday, 28 April, Oxus shares were 0.875p higher at 80.375p. Less than a million shares went through the market during the morning, but by the close over 3.7 million had changed hands in 89 different deals.

      The Tony Blair letter concerned a deposit at Jeroey in Kyrgyzstan that was expected to produce up to 180,000 ounces of gold a year. Mining was due to start this month, but was suspended when the licence was lost.

      Blair wrote a letter of complaint in January to Kyrgyzstan president Kurmanbek Bakiyev saying that the withdrawal of the licence could damage Kyrgyzstan's reputation in international financial markets.

      President Bakiyev hit back by saying that 'based on Oxus's irresponsible and unlawful behaviour, we have no confidence that they and their subsidiary will meet their contractually mandated obligations to our government'.

      Later, Kyrgyzstan Prime Minister Felix Kulov said it was not in his country's interest to restore the licence under the prevailing terms.

      Oxus lost the license in 2004 under the regime of the previous president Askar Akayev, who was ousted in a 2005 revolution in the former Soviet republic

      Uzbekistan seeks Korean involvement in Khandiza polymetallic deposit11
      (Interfax News Agency Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)TASHKENT. April 25 (Interfax) - Uzbekistan plans to involve Korea Resources (Kores) as an investor in the development of the Khandiza polymetallic deposit in the Surkhandarya region, the exclusive rights to which have already been granted to UK-based Oxus Gold.




      The Khandiza project is on a list of projects proposed for implementation with direct South Korean investment and financial cooperation in the presidential decree setting out priority measures for implementation of agreements reached at an Uzbek-Korean summit in late March.

      An appendix to the April 11 decree states that the Korean
      company
      will invest $75 million in the project, which will be carried
      out in2006-2007.

      The State Geology and Mineral Resources Committee and the Economics Ministry will be responsible for the project.

      A source at Oxus Gold's office in Uzbekistan told Interfax that he had no information about this decree and Kores' possible participation in the Khandiza project.

      "We met with Korean companies, including with representatives of Kores, several times at the suggestion of the Uzbek side," he said. "But we unequivocally said that we have to opportunity for Kores to participate as an investor in this project," he said.

      Oxus Gold is prepared to discuss the issue of Korean companies' participation only as suppliers of production equipment or buyers of nonferrous metals, he said.

      Independent analysts said Uzbekistan is aggressively foisting Korean partners on Oxus in the project to develop Khandiza.

      But the Mineral Resources Committee denies this. "Without the agreement of Oxus Gold, other foreign investors can be involved in this project," a senior official at the committee said.

      He said the Committee and Oxus subsidiary Marakand Minerals
      Ltd.
      have an agreement to form a joint venture to develop Khandiza
      on aparity basis.

      "The British company can agree on the participation of
      another
      foreign partner in this project, but only at the expense of
      its 50%stake," he said.

      The "government cannot refuse the company to which it has granted exclusive rights to explore and develop the Khandiza deposit," he said.

      Nonetheless, a joint venture for Khandiza has not been created yet.

      "In August of last year we submitted to the Uzbek side all documents for signing an agreement on the creation of the JV, and then - nothing," the Oxus source said.

      Marakand Minerals has said it plans to create a joint venture by the end of 2006 for the $71-million project to explore and develop the Khandiza polymetallic ore deposit in Uzbekistan's Surkhandarya region.

      Marakand Minerals said the project had been included in its 2006 investment budget and that the deposit should go on stream late 2007 or early 2008.

      A project feasibility study says that a facility
      capable of
      processing 650,000 tonnes of ore per year will be built and
      that themine will have a life of at least 15 years.

      Marakand Minerals will finance the project itself. It has so far raised around $8 million on the AIM.

      Oxus owns 81.6% of Marakand Minerals, set up especially for the Khandiza project. Earlier it was thought that Marakand Minerals would sign a concession agreement with the Uzbek government.

      Khandiza contains a proven resource of 14.4 million tonnes
      of ore
      with an average content of 7.24% for zinc, 3.5% for lead,
      0.86% forcopper, 134 g/t for silver and 0.38 g/t for gold. The ore also contains selenium, cadmium and indium.

      Oxus Gold Plc. was set up in 1996 for mining projects in Central Asia. It and the Uzbek government signed an agreement on the Khandiza project in 1996. The government granted Oxus the exclusive right to explore and mine the field in September 2003. Vp pr

      Uzbekistan Cancels Tax Breaks for Some Jvs
      2006-07-19
      Daily News Bulletin; Moscow - English

      TASHKENT. July 19 (Interfax) - Uzbekistan has completed the list of enterprises with foreign investments (joint ventures) which will be deprived of tax and customs breaks, a governmental decree published by local media on Wednesday reads.

      The document cancels a number of income and property tax breaks and the equipment import tax for the Uzbek-U.S. gold mining JV Zeravshan-Newmont, in which Newmont Mining Corp. holds 50%.

      Another gold mining JV, Amantaitau Goldfields, in which British Oxus Gold holds 50% of stakes, was deprived of tax breaks as well.

      Furthermore, preferences, as far as fees on importing technological equipment by VBD Toshkent controlled by Russia's Wimm- Bill-Dann Foods (RTS: WBDF), Uzbek-U.S. oil production JV Uz-Texaco and Uzbek-South Korean JV Uz-Daewoo Electronics are concerned, were canceled as well.

      VAT allowances were canceled in respect to Uzbek-Swiss JV Nestle- Uzbekistan involved in food production. UzKeisagroleasing was deprived of a number of preferences as well.

      In the past years, Uzbekistan regularly granted tax and customs allowances in order to attract more foreign investors.

      London, 1st August 2006


      Marakand secures two copper - gold option agreements in Turkey


      Marakand Minerals Limited ('Marakand') is pleased to announce that the Company
      has entered into exclusive option agreements to acquire majority interests in
      two separate copper - gold exploration license areas in southern Turkey.


      Both license areas are located in the prospective southern Turkish 'ophiolite
      belt' related to the Cyprus Arc, and host 'Cyprus-type' copper - gold
      mineralization. Exploration works, including surface drilling, have previously
      been undertaken on both license areas and Marakand, pursuant to the terms of the
      option agreements, is proceeding with further exploration.


      Hatay Exploration License

      Marakand has signed a shareholders' agreement with Yurttaslar Construction
      Industry Company for a 25% interest in a newly formed joint venture company,
      Hatay Madencilik AS, with the option to increase its holding to a 66.7% interest
      at Marakand's election on or before the end of August 2008, following further
      exploration and evaluations.


      The Hatay Exploration License was officially transferred by the Turkish General
      Directorate of Mining Affairs into Hatay Madencilik AS on the 19th July 2006.
      The Hatay License, covering 1204.8 hectares, is located in the Antakya Region
      and has had some preliminary exploration work done. Ancient Roman workings are
      extensive.


      Mineralization in the area explored so far, extends over at least 1,600m along
      strike. Grab samples collected by Marakand confirm significant levels of gold
      and copper. Analyses (by OMAC Laboratories in Ireland) of samples from the
      eastern end of the area indicated the presence of up to 9.48 g/t gold and 3.09 %
      copper, whilst samples from the west of the area indicate up to 17.28 g/t gold
      but with less copper (0.15 %).


      Marakand is currently establishing a technical office in Antakya and has
      commenced satellite image interpretation of the area. A program of surveying,
      geological mapping and sampling is underway as a precursor to surface drilling.


      Karakalise Exploration License

      Marakand has also entered into an exclusive option agreement with Barkan
      Madencilik for the right to acquire a 100% interest in the Karakalise
      Exploration Licence in the Isparta Region, on or before 31st March 2007.
      Previous exploration work included four shallow drill-holes which were reported
      by the Turkish General Directorate of Mineral Research and Exploration ('MTA')
      to have intersected copper - gold mineralization with average grade 3.39 %
      copper and 1.7 g/t gold.

      UPDATE 2-Uzbeks revoke Oxus licence to develop mine-source
      Tue Aug 15, 2006 2:40 PM BST

      (Adds background, details)

      By Shamil Baigin

      TASHKENT, Aug 15 (Reuters) - Uzbekistan has revoked a licence held by Britain's Oxus Gold Plc. <OXS.L> to develop the Khandiza deposit in the south of the country, a government source said on Tuesday.

      Shares in Oxus dropped 8.6 percent to 37.0 pence by 1336 GMT, erasing gains made on Monday after a British newspaper reported the firm did not face the cancellation of tax privileges in the Central Asian state.

      The government source said a state-owned copper company will develop the Khandiza deposit, which contains gold, zinc, silver, copper and lead.

      "A foreign company will not be involved in this project," the source told Reuters. The source could not explain why the government decided to take away Oxus's licence.

      Oxus representatives in Uzbekistan could not be reached for comment.

      Last week U.S. gold miner Newmont Mining Corp. <NEM.N>, which is also developing a deposit in Uzbekistan, said it believed tax claims against it were an attempt by the government to expropriate its share of its own joint venture.

      The move comes at a time when relations between Uzbekistan and the West are strained following strong Western condemnation of a bloody crackdown on a rebellion in the Uzbek town of Andizhan in May 2005.

      President Islam Karimov's government, criticised in the West for cracking down on dissent, has shut down many foreign-funded charitable organisations since the Andizhan events.

      Oxus has been developing the Khandiza deposit since 1996 as part of a joint venture in which it holds an 86 percent share, according to its Web site. The company estimates total investment in the project at $70 million.

      Its resource base is 14.4 million tonnes of various metals including zinc and gold, as well as 48 million ounces of silver, according to the Web site of an Oxus-controlled company developing the deposit.

      The mine had been scheduled to come on stream in 2007 or 2008, but construction work has yet to start.

      The government source said the deposit will now be developed by Almalyk, Uzbekistan's sole copper producer.

      Oxus's other project in Uzbekistan is its Amantaytau Goldfields joint venture with the government in which it has been involved since 2004.

      Oxus also faces trouble in neighbouring Kyrgyzstan where it is trying to recover a licence to operate Jerooy, Kyrgyzstan's second-biggest gold deposit, since it was revoked in 2004.

      Uzbekistan revokes western gold mining company license
      By: By Charles Carlisle
      Posted: '18-AUG-06 11:47' GMT © Mineweb 1997-2006




      LONDON (Mineweb.com) --The political risks of conducting mineral resource operations in some autocratic nations have been highlighted this week in the former Soviet Republic of Uzbekistan, firstly by the fate of Newmont’s Zarafshan JV which has been declared bankrupt by an Uzbek court over tax claims. And now British explorer Oxus Gold has had a subsidiary company’s license to develop a gold and zinc deposit arbitrarily revoked, apparently by the country’s President.

      The license in question is that of Marakand Minerals – an 85.78% owned Oxus subsidiary - which was developing the Khandiza project in which it had a 81.6% interest. This license has now been transferred to the state-owned mining company, the Almalyk Mining and Smelting Combine.

      The Khandiza deposit is a volcanogenic massive sulphide which contains zinc, lead and copper and associated silver and gold. It is located in southeast Uzbekistan in the Surkhandarya Province.

      The deposit was identified in 1957 and, according to the Marakand website, was well explored during the Soviet era. By the end of 1974, 77,000 metres of core drilling and 19,000 metres of underground exploration development had been completed, together with a considerable amount of metallurgical testwork on bulk samples, enabling a Soviet Feasibility Study to be prepared. The project was evaluated by Oxus Resources Corporation ("Oxus") from 1996 until the formation of Marakand in November 2003. A confirmation drilling programme (30 holes totaling 3,776 metres) was completed by Oxus in 2001. Marakand completed its feasibility study in September 2004, which confirmed the project to be financially and technically robust.

      The recent moves against western-owned mining companies appears to have followed directly western government criticisms of the human rights record of the Uzbekistan government. Effectively it looks like the country’s President, Islam Karimov, is making western commercial interests pay for the statements by their governments.

      So far there has been no news of any action being taken with regard to Oxus’s other extensive mineral prospects in Uzbekistan, but there is little doubt that the company, and its shareholders, should be nervous about its future there, until clarification of government policy is received.

      Meanwhile, Newmont has said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it intends to pursue all available legal remedies, including international arbitration. The Uzbekistan court is scheduled to hear Newmont's appeal on Sept. 29.

      Following the bankruptcy declaration, a court-appointed temporary administrator will now oversee all operations of the Zarafshan-Newmont joint venture between Newmont and Uzbekistan's government.

      The Uzbekistan government continues to block the shipment of the joint venture's gold out of Uzbekistan. As a result, the joint venture's access to an $18 million offshore account has been frozen by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, to which the joint venture owes a $20 million debt.

      Marakand Minerals Limited
      28 September 2006




      Final For Immediate Release
      28 September 2006


      Preliminary results for the year ended 30 June 2006


      Marakand Minerals Limited ("Marakand" or "the Company") announces its
      preliminary results for the year ended 30 June 2006.


      Uzbekistan: Khandiza Project

      * the Company continued to seek final approvals from the Uzbek Government
      regarding the development of the Khandiza deposit by way of a Joint Venture
      ('JV') with the State Committee of Geology of the Republic of Uzbekistan
      ("Goscomgeology").
      * a recent decree of the Uzbek Government, transferring the Khandiza
      mineral reserves from Goscomgeology to the state owned Almalyk Mining and
      Metallurgical Combinat ("AMMC") has meant the previously proposed JV with
      Goscomgeology falls away and Marakand is presently seeking to clarify the
      nature of its continued role in the project with the Uzbek Government.
      * regional exploration work was carried out in the South East Uzbekistan
      exploration areas in the last year continuing to indicate encouraging
      results.


      Turkey: Copper - Gold Projects

      * Marakand has entered into exclusive option arrangements to acquire
      majority interests in two separate copper - gold exploration license areas
      in southern Turkey.
      * the two Turkish licences are located in the prospective southern Turkish
      'ophiolite belt' related to the Cyprus Arc, and host 'Cyprus-type' copper -
      gold mineralization.
      * exploration works, including surface drilling, have previously been
      undertaken on both license areas and the Company is now proceeding with
      further exploration.


      Tajikistan: Akjilga silver deposit

      * Marakand has continued to express its interest in the exploration and
      development of this deposit, however the Company is awaiting the official
      issuance of a license before committing to any further funds to the project.


      Uzbekistan, Khandiza

      Further to completion and submission of the Khandiza Feasibility Study in
      October 2004 for the economic development of the zinc, lead, copper, silver,
      gold deposit, and exploration of surrounding areas in South East Uzbekistan,
      Marakand, in the latter half of 2005 reached agreement in principle with its
      nominated Uzbek partner, Goscomgeology, on the legal and financial
      documentation for the project's development based on the requested Joint
      Venture structure.

      The Company, again at the request of Goscomgeology, also entered into
      discussions with a major Korean interest pursuant to possible project financing
      on competitive commercial terms, and in June 2006 signed a Negotiation Framework
      Agreement to prepare the way for detailed negotiations.

      In August 2006, the Uzbek Government issued Presidential Decree 442, specifying
      the transfer of the Khandiza mineral reserves from Goscomgeology to AMMC, and
      cancelling Decree 359, which had previously given Marakand exclusive rights to
      negotiate to develop Khandiza on the basis of a concession contract or
      production sharing agreement.

      The Company has indicated to both Goscomgeology and AMMC that it is prepared to
      participate jointly with AMMC on the project and is seeking meetings with senior
      members of the Cabinet of Ministers to present a development proposal on the
      joint exploitation of the Khandiza and Uch-kulach deposits that is mutually
      beneficial and to be authorised to enter into detailed negotiations with AMMC.

      Marakand's rights and investments to date are protected under the Uzbek Law on
      Subsoil Use and On Guarantees and Measures to Protect Foreign Investors' Rights.
      In the event that the Company cannot negotiate an acceptable role in the
      development of the Khandiza project, the Company will alternatively seek the
      appropriate compensation to which it is entitled under Uzbek law.

      Through its efforts since 1996 the Company has come to understand the deposit in
      detail and having completed a detailed Feasibility Study and Environmental and
      Social Impact Assessment, has been in a position to proceed with project
      financing and development of Khandiza for some time pending governmental
      approvals.

      Framework Agreements are in place for the toll smelting and sale of zinc, lead
      and copper concentrates.


      Khandiza - Resources and reserves

      * The Soviet resource for the Khandiza Project was estimated in 1974 at 20.9Mt
      at an average grade of 6.63% zinc, 3.28% lead, 0.84% copper,
      114 g/t silver and 0.35 g/t gold.

      * The JORC classified measured and indicated resource above a
      2% zinc cut-off has been estimated in 2004 at 11.83Mt at an average grade of
      7.66% zinc, 3.65% lead, 0.921% copper, 129 g/t silver and 0.38 g/t gold.

      * The mineable reserve above a 4% zinc break-even cut-off, for the first
      15 years of production, totals 9.61Mt at an average grade of 7.90%
      zinc, 3.78% lead, 0.95% copper, 129 g/t silver and 0.37 g/t gold.


      South East Uzbekistan Exploration

      Limited regional exploration work was carried out in the South East Uzbekistan
      exploration areas in the last year, with commencement of more intensive
      exploration being deferred until completion of the final approval process of the
      Khandiza Project and exploration strategy by the Uzbek Government.


      Hatay and Karakilise Projects in Turkey

      Marakand has entered into exclusive option arrangements to acquire majority
      interests in two separate copper - gold exploration license areas in southern
      Turkey. Both license areas are located in the prospective southern Turkish
      'ophiolite belt' related to the Cyprus Arc, and host 'Cyprus-type' copper - gold
      mineralization. Exploration works, including surface drilling, have previously
      been undertaken on both license areas and the Company is now proceeding with
      further exploration.


      Hatay Exploration License

      Marakand holds a 25% interest in a newly formed joint venture company, Hatay
      Madencilik AS, with the option to increase its holding to a 66.7% interest at
      Marakand's election, following further exploration and feasibility studies.

      The Hatay Exploration License was formally transferred by the Turkish General
      Directorate of Mining Affairs into Hatay Madencilik AS on the 19th July 2006.
      The Hatay License, covering 1204.8 hectares, is located in the Antakya Region
      and has previously been explored for gold. Ancient Roman workings are extensive.

      Mineralization in the area explored so far, extends over at least 1,600m along
      strike. Grab samples collected by the Company confirm significant levels of gold
      and copper. Analyses of samples from the eastern end of the area indicated the
      presence of up to 9.48 g/t gold and 3.09 % copper, whilst samples from the west
      of the area indicate up to 17.28 g/t gold but with less copper (0.15 %). A
      stream sediment sampling programme, together with further rock sampling, is
      expected to increase the overall strike extent of mineralization.

      Marakand has established a technical office in Antakya and has commenced
      satellite image interpretation of the area. A programme of geological mapping,
      sampling and surveying has commenced, to be followed by surface drilling before
      the end of 2006.


      Karakilise Exploration License

      Marakand has also entered into an exclusive option agreement to acquire a 100%
      interest in the Karakilise Exploration Licence in the Isparta Region, on or
      before 2nd February 2007. In a previous exploration exercise four shallow
      drill-holes are reported to have intersected copper - gold mineralization with
      average grade 3.39 % copper and 1.7 g/t gold.

      Grab samples of outcropping massive sulphides confirm significant levels of
      copper and gold. Analyses of two of these samples indicate the presence of
      3.87% copper with 0.99 g/t gold, and 2.31% copper with 3.10 g/t gold.


      Akjilga Silver Project in Tajikistan

      The Company remains interested in the exploration and development of the Akjilga
      Silver Deposit, however is examining ways of participating with local partners
      in securing a license for exploration and mining before committing to any
      further expenditure on the project.

      Compilation of data on the Akjilga Silver Project by Marakand illustrates high
      silver grades encountered during Soviet adit development and encouraging results
      from metallurgical testwork on Akjilga silver ores.

      The Soviet resource for the Akjilga Project was estimated at 988,300t at an
      average grade of 2,114 g/t silver, 0.71% copper and 0.78% antimony. A number of
      high grade veins, of 0.5 to 2.0m in width, were explored in the 1980's by two
      adits and associated drives.

      Preliminary metallurgical testwork carried out in Moscow in 1991, on a sample
      grading 996 g/t silver, indicated that 97.2% of the silver could be recovered to
      a gravity / flotation concentrate grading 30,410 g/t silver, 23.0% copper and
      3.5% antimony.


      Corporate

      Whilst continuing to seek and clarify a meaningful role in Khandiza with the
      Uzbek Government, Marakand will proceed with exploration of its Turkish
      licences, and consider further acquisitions in Turkey.

      Management has completed a review of its cost structure in light of the
      immediate exploration focus in Turkey, delays and uncertainty concerning the
      development of Khandiza and the increased Oxus ownership of the Company. Oxus
      plays more active role in the day to day dealings of Marakand.


      Financial Results

      The Company had $131,000.00 cash at the end of the review period. Marakand's
      anticipated funding needs for the year end 2007, principally for exploration in
      Turkey, will be met by a loan agreement with Oxus Gold plc, dated 22 September
      2006 which provides for Marakand to borrow up to USD 500,000, of which $240,000
      is to repay accrued fees payable to Oxus as at 30 June 20, and is renewable by
      mutual agreement. Interest is payable at 3% above 1 month LIBOR and the loan is
      secured by pledge or mortgage over the Company's assets.

      Marakand Minerals is a mining exploration and development company focused in
      Central Asia and Turkey, and listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM)
      in London, stock exchange symbol MKD.L.

      Hab mir letztes Jahr zweimal einen Einstieg überlegt, und muss schon sagen: ich bin schockiert diese Entwicklung nun zu sehen.

      Was mich damals vom Kauf abgehalten hat, war der geringe Aktienanteil des Managements. Bei so einem Wert der nur aus Hoffnung besteht ist das die einzige brauchbare Kennziffer. Ich werde da in Zukunft noch stringenter sein, und auch meine Explorer im Depot noch ganauer anschauen um so eine Kacke wie sie hier passiert zu vermeiden. :(

      Marakand Minerals Limited ('Marakand', or the 'Company'), the AIM quoted Eurasian base metal and silver company announces its intention to reconstitute its Board of Directors ('the Board') with immediate effect.
      The decision to restructure the Board has been taken to ensure an appropriate Board composition and cost structure in light of the ongoing process of seeking clarity on the Company's future in the Khandiza project, the exploration focus in Turkey and the increased ownership, financial support and involvement in Marakand by Oxus Gold plc.

      Accordingly Alasdair Stuart and Richard Robinson have offered their resignation with immediate effect. William Charter remains on the Board as executive director, to be joined by Oliver Prior as non-executive director. Mr Prior presently serves as an independent non-executive director on the Board of Oxus Gold plc.

      Other Directorships - Oliver Charles Prior, 60

      Present - Oxus Gold plc Past - Willis Faber & Dumas Limited ("Willis")
      No other information falls to be disclosed in respect of Mr Prior under schedule 2(g) to the AIM Rules.

      The Company has also allotted 2,095,567 shares, representing 2% of the issued share capital in respect of capitalised fees totalling £119,447.
      This amount includes £35,350 of fees due to William Charter.
      As a result of the above Mr Charter is now interested in 620,175 ordinary Marakand shares, representing 0.6% of the issued share capital of the Company.

      The Board extends its gratitude to Alasdair and Richard for their loyal and professional contributions to the Company over the past 3 years and wishes them every success for the future.

      MARAKAND UPDATE

      Marakand Minerals Limited ('Marakand', or the 'Company') (MKD.L), the Eurasian
      base metal and silver company, has been advised by its parent company and 86%
      shareholder, Oxus Gold plc ("Oxus") (OXS.L), that Oxus has agreed in principle
      and subject to final contract, to sell certain assets to KazakhGold Group
      Limited ("KazakhGold") (KZG.L), including certain exploration assets in Turkey,
      currently owned by Marakand.

      The Board of Directors of Marakand confirm that any agreement between Oxus and
      KazakhGold in respect of the sale of such Marakand assets will require Marakand
      board approval and, in addition, any such sale will be subject to the
      determination of an appropriate fair market value to be paid to Marakand by Oxus
      for these assets. Marakand shareholders will be kept informed of any
      developments.

      As announced in on 1 August 2006, Marakand entered into exclusive option
      agreements to acquire majority interests in two separate copper / gold
      exploration license areas in southern Turkey, namely the Hatay exploration
      license and the Karakilise exploration license. Both license areas are located
      in the prospective southern Turkish 'ophiolite belt' related to the Cyprus Arc,
      and host 'Cyprus-type' copper / gold mineralisation. Exploration works,
      including surface drilling, have previously been undertaken on both license
      areas.

      In February 2007, Marakand completed a further programme of stream sediment
      sampling, geological mapping, surface channel sampling and a 10 hole surface
      drilling programme on the Hatay license. Marakand has dispatched channel and
      drill core samples to an independent laboratory for analysis, and will be
      reporting results as soon as they are available and evaluated

      Turkey
      In August 2006, Marakand announced that it had entered into exclusive option agreements to acquire majority interests in two separate copper-gold exploration license areas in southern Turkey, namely the Hatay exploration license and the Karakilise exploration license. Both license areas are located in the prospective southern Turkish ‘ophiolite belt’ related to the Cyprus Arc, and host ‘Cyprus-type’ copper-gold mineralisation. Exploration works, including surface drilling, have previously been undertaken on both license areas.

      In February 2007, Marakand completed a further programme of stream sediment sampling, geological mapping, surface channel sampling and a 10 hole surface drilling programme (582m) on the Hatay license. Marakand has dispatched channel and drill core samples to an independent laboratory for analysis.

      In March 2007, Marakand was advised by Oxus, that Oxus has agreed in principle and subject to final contract, to sell certain assets to KazakhGold Group Limited (“KazakhGold”) (KZG.L), including certain exploration assets in Turkey, currently owned by Marakand. The Board of Directors of Marakand confirm that any agreement between Oxus and KazakhGold in respect of the sale of such Marakand’s Turkish assets will require Marakand board approval and, in addition, any such sale will be subject to the determination of an appropriate fair market value to be paid to Marakand by Oxus for these assets. Marakand shareholders will be kept informed of any developments on this issue, and Marakand will be reporting on the Hatay exploration programme as soon as all results are available and evaluated.

      Khandiza and surrounding SE Uzbekistan exploration area
      In August 2006, Marakand received notification of the Uzbek Government’s decision to transfer the resources of the Khandiza zinc, lead, copper, silver, gold deposit in South East Uzbekistan from its nominated partner, the Uzbek State Committee of Geology, to the state owned Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Combinat. Marakand continues to seek clarification from the Uzbek Government as to its future participation in the Khandiza project. Marakand maintains that, given both the expenditure and the considerable amount of work carried out on the project’s feasibility study and environmental and social impact assessment by both the Company and its majority shareholder, Oxus, that it is in a position to contribute very positively towards the development of Khandiza, and seek a return for its investment to date.

      In November 2006, Oxus reported that it had signed a subscription agreement with Zeromax, Uzbekistan’s largest private-sector company, as a strategic investor and partner in new alliances. This will involve evaluating additional opportunities in Uzbekistan, and it is hoped that these new alliances will include Marakand’s future involvement in the Khandiza project.

      In the meantime, Marakand has cut back its ‘holding costs’ in Uzbekistan to a minimum.

      Akjilga Silver Project (Tajikistan)
      Marakand has had no official response from the Tajik Government to its application for a licence to explore and develop this deposit. Marakand has examined ways of participating with local partners in securing the licence, but having been advised that the licence has been issued to another company, Marakand has not committed to any further expenditure, and has ceased to pursue this project.

      Uzbekistan, und das Khandiza Projekt.
      Marakand Minerals wird mit hoher Sicherheit wieder zurückkehren.

      Auch das wird zu einer starken Kursentwicklung bei MM führen.

      Nur kurz wegen wenig Zeit:

      - Hatay ist verkauft, weitere Bohrergebnisse sind nicht mehr relevant.
      http://www.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&article=20391534&epic=M….

      - Khandiza ist MKD abgenommen und an eine andere Firma aus Usbekistan gegeben. MKD hofft jetzt wieder in das Projekt involviert zu werden. Vielleicht das das klappt (vor allen wegen Zeromax die neue partner von Oxus), aber ´hohe Sicherkeit´, wie du geschrieben hast, ist sehr optimistisch. Ich kann auch nichts in dein Posting finden was deutet auch hohe Sicherkeit. Ich hoffe für alle Aktionären das es klappt, ich persönlich bin skeptisch...

      Auszug aus einem Brief von Bill Charter:


      Dear Mr XXX,



      I acknowledge receipt of your emails of 8th, 12th and 28th May 2007, and your further email received today 5 th June 2007. I have recently been travelling in Russia and Kazakhstan with little email contact, but must assure you that I directed your comments to our parent company, Oxus Gold plc. I can only apologise that you have had no response in my absence.......


      ........On the 26th April 2007, I further advised Marakand shareholders that Oxus had offered US$950,000 in cash to acquire the Company\'s 25% interest in the Hatay Madencilik joint stock company and the Hatay copper / gold exploration licence, and the rights to an Option Agreement on the Karakilise copper / gold exploration licence, the proceeds of the offer to be applied to reducing the Company\'s loan account with Oxus. This offer was consistent with a recent fair market valuation undertaken by independent mineral industry consultants, and the Directors have accepted Oxus\' offer. The book value as at 31 December 2006 was US$610,840. The sale of Marakand\'s Turkish assets has only partially been completed, and discussions are still taking place between Marakand, Oxus Gold, KazakhGold and certain Turkish parties.



      In Marakand\'s Interim Results Statement dated 30th March 2007, I advised shareholders that in November 2006, Oxus signed a subscription agreement with Zeromax, Uzbekistan\'s largest private-sector company, as a strategic investor and partner in new alliances. This would involve evaluating additional opportunities in Uzbekistan, and it is still hoped that these new alliances will include Marakand\'s future involvement in the Khandiza project. I have personally been working on the Khandiza project since 1996, and since completion of the Khandiza feasibility study and environmental impact assessment in 2005, have been involved in discussions with representatives of the Uzbek Government and recently with Zeromax. I can assure you that in Uzbekistan, it is not possible to put a timeframe of any resolutions of the Uzbek Government and the company and its shareholders will have to remain patient.



      I cannot make specific disclosures to individual shareholders, but I assure you that as a Director of Marakand that I am trying to do my best for both the majority shareholder, Oxus Gold, as well as all minority shareholders.

      So long,

      Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 31.901.929 von aradieschen am 08.10.07 18:39:12Offensichtlich keine guten Nachrichten: Muttergesellschaft Oxus, selber unter die Räder gekommen, will die ausstehenden Aktien von Marakand zurück kaufen (Meldung in finanznachrichten.de vom 22.10.). Was bedeutet das für die Aktionäre? Zu welchem Preis werden Sie die Aktien los? Wer weiss mehr?

      ich frage mich, ob man da als außenstehender nicht rasiert würde.
      wenn man den verlauf von ipo bis jetzt verfolgt.... naja, shared risk, oxus hat ja auch gelitten, liegt aber in etwa auf dem niveau vom börsenstart.
      war das sogenannte unabhängige gutachten, auf dessen basis oxus im april die lizenz gekauft hatte mal irgendwo zu sehen? wer hat das denn erstellt (und in wessem auftrag)?
      grüße

      0,135 x Oxus 0,736 (Stand heute) = 0,099 pro Marakand share.
      Erst alles abschreiben und dann billig nach dem 12. Nov. übernehmen.

      wichtig !! oxus gold schreibt, oder hat bereits die marakand shareholder angeschrieben. dieses formular muss bis 10.12.2007 unterschrieben an oxus gold nach england geschickt werden, um anspruch auf die oxus aktien zu erhalten..
      bei mir kam da eine adressänderung in die quere, aber habe ein neues schreiben veranlasst.

      so long, Neal_AE

      Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 32.607.598 von aradieschen am 28.11.07 23:27:54alles schon in trockenen tüchern. oxus hat die mehrheit, also wurden die punkte a-z der tagesordnung vom 12.11.2007 von oxus als hauptaktionär abgesegnet.

      8 cent pto aktie war der berechnungskurs..

      wichtig ist halt dies formular zu unterzeichnen und fristgerecht abzuschicken ?!

      Antwort auf Beitrag Nr.: 32.613.280 von Neal_AE am 29.11.07 14:18:40Hallo guten Tag, nach Auskunft meiner Bank ist es ein obligatorischer Umtausch (Zwangsumtausch) neue GB0030632714. Auch wenn man von OXUS nicht angeschrieben worden ist, kein Versäumnis zu befürchten.
