Company Profile

The Oxus Group was established in 1996 and quoted on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) in London in 2001.

Oxus Gold plc is a UK based international mining group with gold mining interests in Central Asia. Oxus is the joint owner (50/50) with the government of Uzbekistan of Amantaytau Goldfields (AGF) which is developing several mining operations in the Tien Shan gold belt near Zarafshan.

The first mine was constructed and commissioned by Oxus in January 2004 on time and within budget and commercial production began the following month. AGF has since produced more than 270,000 ounces of gold to the end of September 2005 and is now producing at the planned rate of 151,000 onces per annum.

Mr T, could be a while ! and cynic is not far wrong but for me buying at 9p i am willing to take the risk, a bounce back to 20p and i can get out even !! I am hoping THEY will do their best to help ?? 20p may be achievable with time :)

I'm with you Smiler. I hope that we are not just looking at a hole in the ground now. I thought there was some good value in this share. I am prepared to hold on:)

seriously ...... why must you try to average down and thus increase your exposure on a very dodgy stock? ..... surely that is bad logic

cynic,

I agree, this looke pretty terminal now, I;m sorry to say, and sincere commiserations for all holders here.

Oxus are now fighting on all fronts, Krgystan, Uz, Marakand, and EUG, and I can visualise a picture of Bill Trew in place of Custer with the enemy circling, and we all know how that went.

It's extremely sad for all involved, I like Bill Trew, he was very investor friendly IMO.

I will not be investing is the FSU after this, they are no better than common thieves IMO.

Andy .... doesn't agreeing with me go totally against your principles .... lol!! ..... of course FSU is a dangerous place to trade, as is Africa or even China for that matter, but that does not mean a wide portfolio should not contain a modest sprinkling of such (high) risk stocks, in moderate dose

Logic, hmm I know your right i have been in this stock for a while now and know the risk, and yet still some buys to day at 10p, I hope I am right but I still think this COULD bounce back to 18+ which will allow me to get out I will find out soon me thinks !

alot of buy orders triggered at 10p...mms short of stock..hence the desperate fall to 9p to catch a few stop losses

cynic,

LOL!

Whilt I agree totally regading owning a diverse portfolio, (and I am generally in higher risk AIM and TSX.v stocks!), there are some countries that I now believe are too risky currently, and these are mainly the FSU countries, which as we can see from Oxus' experience, are operating outside the normally recognised international laws.

What has occurred here is outright theft IMO.

So currently Uz and krgystan, are countries I will not invest in period.

I am willing to consider AVM, located in Tajikistan, and Kazakstan, as those governements seem to still recognise international laws.

I am wary of Angola and DRC, but would consider investing in a company there if the prospect looked good.

Apart from those countries listed above, I am prepared to invest anywhere else, and I discount the country risk.

I even own a Bolivian based stock!

I thought DRC was a sublime but gaggingly overpriced Burgundy!
I take it you wouldn't buy VOG, if for no other reason that its exploration etc is in Khaz.

cynic,

No I wouldn't buy VOG, but mainly because I currently don't believe in K.Foo's ability to deliver, rather than the geographic loction.
