OXUS GOLD PLC

Distribution by Oxus of its holding of KazakhGold GDRs

LONDON: 1 June 2007 - Oxus Gold Plc, ('Oxus' or 'the Company') (OXS.L) has today
mailed a circular to convene an extraordinary general meeting of the Company
('EGM') at 11.00 am on Wednesday, 20 June 2007, for the purpose of seeking
shareholder approval for the distribution to shareholders of a dividend in
specie of KazakhGold Group Limited ('KazakhGold') global depositary receipts
('GDRs') held by Oxus.

On 12 March 2007 Oxus announced that it had agreed in principle to sell to
KazakhGold its Kyrgyz, Romanian and certain Turkish assets in consideration of
the issue to Oxus of 3,541,666 new KazakhGold shares. The transaction was
completed on 10 May 2007.

The KazakhGold shares received by Oxus, which are not trading on any exchange,
have been converted into KazakhGold GDRs, on the basis of one share being equal
to one GDR, and these have been admitted to the Official List and to trading on
the main market of the London Stock Exchange.

Conditional on shareholder approval Oxus will distribute the KazakhGold GDRs to
shareholders on the basis of one GDR for every 110 Oxus shares held at the
record date of Friday, 22 June 2007. Fractional entitlements arising from
individual holdings of Oxus shares which are not exactly divisible by 110 will
be aggregated and retained by Oxus for the benefit of all shareholders.

The KazakhGold GDRs can only be held electronically and Oxus shareholders who
currently hold their Oxus shares in certificated form will need to arrange for
the GDRs to be held in a CREST account before distribution to them can be made.
Full details of the arrangements they will need to make are included with the
circular sent to shareholders.

A KazakhGold GDR is a bank certificate issued by the Bank of New York which
represents one KazakhGold share. At close of business on Wednesday, 30 May 2007,
the mid-market price of each KazakhGold GDR on the London Stock Exchange was
US$20.40, equivalent to 10.33 based on the dollar/sterling exchange rate on
that day, and equal to 9.39p per Oxus share.

The EGM will be held at the offices of the Company, 105 Piccadilly, London, W1.

LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Oxus Gold PLC said its Amantaytau Goldfields project in Uzbekistan has exported its first silver bullion, following the approval from the Uzbekistan government.

A total of 44,038 ounces of silver bullion was shipped to London and sold for 553,998 usd, the company said in a statement.

A further 437,539 ounces of silver in dore form is currently being refined in Uzbekistan, or waiting to be refined into bullion, it added.

On May 10, Oxus Gold had said its Amantaytau Goldfields project stands to make cash savings of some 17 mln usd after the government of Uzbekistan granted tax deferrals to the Phase I Oxides development.

The company has also said that it will distribute its KazakhGold global depository receipts (GDRs) to its shareholders by a dividend.

The dividend represents one KazakhGold GDR for every 110 Oxus shares.

OXUS GOLD PLC


LONDON: 22 October 2007 - Oxus Gold Plc, ('Oxus' ) (OXS.L) is pleased to
report that its 84% owned subsidiary, Marakand Minerals Limited ('Marakand' or
the 'Company') has today issued a statement announcing the convening of an
Extraordinary General Meeting ('EGM') to amend its Articles of Association to
enable Oxus to compulsorily acquire those ordinary shares of Marakand which it
does not currently own. Extracts from the Marakand EGM circular are repeated
here for the benefit of the Oxus shareholders.



Extract from Extraordinary General Meeting Circular

Proposed Amendment to the Articles

Introduction

The board of Marakand announces that it has convened an Extraordinary General
Meeting on 12 November 2007 to propose an amendment to the Articles of
Association of the Company ('Articles') to enable Oxus Gold plc to compulsorily
acquire the 16,459,073 ordinary shares of Marakand ('Ordinary Shares') which it
does not currently own ('Remaining Shares') in exchange for new Oxus ordinary
shares. The Remaining Shares represent approximately 15.96 per cent. of
Marakand's issued share capital. Assuming the resolution is passed at the EGM
and following completion of the acquisition Oxus intends to cancel admission of
the Ordinary Shares on AIM.


Background to the Proposal

Marakand is a mining exploration and development company focused on base metals
and silver. Its principal asset is its interest in the Khandiza polymetallic
deposit in South East Uzbekistan. Until recently, the Company had pursued a
strategy to acquire exploration assets in Turkey.

The Khandiza deposit contains, above a 2 per cent. zinc cut off, a JORC
classified and audited Measured and Indicated Resource containing 11.8Mt at an
average grade of 7.66 per cent. zinc, 3.65 per cent. lead, 0.91 per cent.
copper, 129 g/t silver and 0.38 g/t gold, plus an Inferred Resource containing
2.6Mt at an average grade of 5.36 per cent. zinc, 2.81 per cent. lead, 0.65 per
cent. copper, 161 g/t silver and 0.38 g/t gold.

Marakand obtained its interest in Khandiza under the Primary Exploration
Agreement. The Primary Exploration Agreement was originally entered into on 14
December 1996 between Goscomgeology (the State Committee of Geology and Mineral
resources for the Republic of Uzbekistan) and Oxus Resources Corporation ('ORC
'), which assigned it to Oxus Services Limited ('OSL') on 1 July 2002.

The Primary Exploration Agreement provides Marakand, together with Oxus and ORC,
with rights to conduct geological prospecting, prepare a feasibility study and
negotiate with Goscomgeology regarding the obtaining of an exploration licence
and the development of mining operations on the Khandiza deposit.

The feasibility study was satisfactorily completed and submitted to the Uzbek
Government as scheduled in October 2004. Subsequent progress on the project has
been limited. In August 2006, the Uzbek Government issued Presidential Decree
442, transferring the rights to develop the Khandiza deposit and related assets
from Goscomgeology to the State-owned Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Combinat.
Since then, Marakand has been seeking to clarify the nature of its continued
role in the project with the Uzbek Government, but has had no response.

With the further passage of time, and difficulties in engaging with the Uzbek
Government, it appears increasingly unlikely that Marakand will be involved in
the future development of the Khandiza deposit.

In the event that Marakand has no future role in the Khandiza project, and in
light of the disposal of its exploration assets in Turkey, announced on 26 April
2007, Marakand would become a dormant company with no activities. However
Marakand remains the owner of the rights to the feasibility study and the
environmental and social impact assessment undertaken in relation to the
Khandiza project, together with associated geological exploration data, results
of all technical and engineering studies and financial analyses carried out
subsequent to June 1996. As at 30 June 2007, the book value of these studies was
US$9,405,000.

Following the various cost control measures which have been implemented since
January 2007, Marakand now has no full time employees. William Charter and
Oliver Prior are directors of Marakand and will continue to be directors of
Marakand until Marakand is de-listed from AIM.

Marakand has today announced, in respect of the year ended 30 June 2007, a loss
before tax of approximately US$19.4 million, after writing off approximately
US$19.1 million in respect of the Khandiza project. Net assets at 30 June 2007
amounted to approximately US$9.4 million.


Reasons for the Proposal

Oxus wishes to acquire the Remaining Shares, both to simplify the structure of
the Oxus group and eliminate unnecessary costs.

To do this Marakand has called the EGM to amend the Articles to insert a
provision enabling a shareholder who owns more than 75 per cent. of the issued
Ordinary Shares (being Oxus) to compulsorily acquire the Remaining Shares in
Marakand. This is the simplest and most cost effective method of acquiring the
Remaining Shares since they are held by more than 930 shareholders.

The Resolution will amend the Articles to permit a shareholder (being Oxus in
practice) who has acquired not less than 75 per cent. of the outstanding issued
share capital of the Company ('Acquiring Shareholder') to give notice ('
Acquisition Notice') to the minority Shareholders that it desires to acquire the
Remaining Shares. To pass the Resolution 75 per cent. of votes cast by
Shareholders at the EGM must approve the amendment.

Where an Acquisition Notice has been given by the Acquiring Shareholder it will
be entitled and bound to acquire the Remaining Shares on the terms of the
Acquisition Notice. The Directors understand that, provided the Resolution is
passed, it is the intention of Oxus to serve an Acquisition Notice on or around
19 November 2007. In this event the amended Articles would oblige Oxus to
acquire the Remaining Shares.

Upon successfully acquiring the Remaining Shares, Oxus intends to cancel the
admission of the Ordinary Shares on AIM.

Given that the longer term future of Marakand is in doubt, the Directors believe
that Oxus ordinary shares offer greater prospects of value accretion and have
more liquidity in the market than shares in Marakand. Furthermore, Oxus, as a
bigger entity, is in a better position to pursue recognition of Marakand's
rights in respect of the Khandiza deposit with Marakand as a 100 per cent.
subsidiary of Oxus.


Terms of the Acquisition

Subject to the passing of the resolution, Oxus intends to acquire the Remaining
Shares on the following basis:

For each 1 Ordinary Share held on the date of acquisition 0.135 new Oxus
ordinary share(s).

Fractional entitlements to new Oxus Ordinary Shares will not be allotted or
issued to shareholders. It is Oxus' intention to round down the number of Oxus
ordinary shares to be received by any such shareholder.

On the basis of Oxus' closing share price of 52.25 pence on 18 October 2007, the
terms of the acquisition value the entire issued share capital of Marakand at
approximately 7.3 million and the Remaining Shares at approximately 1.2
million. The terms of the acquisition represent a premium of approximately 20
per cent to Marakand's closing share price of 5.875 pence on 18 October 2007.

The Directors, who have been so advised by Arden Partners plc ('Arden Partners
'), believe that the terms of the acquisition represent a fair and reasonable
price for a minority stake in Marakand, particularly in light it appearing
increasingly unlikely that Marakand will have a role in the Khandiza project.
If Marakand does not have a role in the Khandiza project then it would become a
dormant company with no significant assets, other than the Khandiza feasibility
study and environmental and social impact assessment, and limited, if any,
prospects.


Remaining Shares

The 16,459,073 Remaining Shares will be acquired by Oxus pursuant to the
Acquisition Notice fully paid and free from all liens, charges, equitable
interests, encumbrances and any other third party rights of any nature
whatsoever and together with all rights attaching thereto including, without
limitation, the right to receive in full and retain all dividends and other
distributions (if any) declared, made or paid after the date of acquisition.


New Oxus ordinary shares

The new Oxus ordinary shares will be issued free from all liens, charges,
equitable interests and encumbrances and any other third party rights of any
nature whatsoever. The new Oxus ordinary shares will be issued credited as
fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with existing Oxus ordinary
shares, including the right to receive in full and retain all dividends and
other distributions (if any) declared, made or paid after the date of
acquisition.

The maximum possible number of new Oxus ordinary shares which could be issued in
relation to the acquisition is up to 2,221,795 new Oxus ordinary shares,
representing approximately 0.6 per cent. of the existing issued share capital of
Oxus. Application will be made for such shares to be admitted to trading on
AIM.

on AIM. Based on the closing price of Oxus ordinary shares on 18 October 2007

was established in 1996 and gained admission to AIM in 2001. Its principal area
