Have been in this since shortly after its IPO. Really liked the management behind this although was at first sceptical about investing in Kosovo. Looks like the company is sticking to a tight timetable and has opened it first quarry last week. I went to the Shares evening last night and the CEO let slip that the second quarry is also now open . I also found out last night that their broker, Daniel Fox- Davis has £500,000 of his own money invested.

pennyshare: Have to say this looks like a very impressive company, but not a short term punt more a 12 month one.

I know we host the Investor Evenings and remain impartial , I though have bought some stocks on the back of them including Magnolia petroleum and Leyshon. I did buy some of these yesterday on the fact that its a 'quarry' company not a miner, bought at around 18p. Chris (The CEO) did let slip in his presentation that a second quarry was now open, so looks like the timetable they set out in their float is being adhered too. We shall see if they can start selling blocks soon.

Anyone else who went to the Investor Evening have any comments?

Restoration of Licences

Fox Marble, the AIM listed company focused on marble quarrying in Kosovo, is pleased to announce that the licensing authority in Kosovo, ("ICMM"), has restored the four Fox Marble licences it had previously annulled.

The Company had announced notification of the annulment of these licences on 3 December 2012. The Company's fifth licence at Cervenilla is unaffected.

Along with the restoration notification, the ICMM has included notices to Fox Marble, as provided in the Kosovan legislation on Mines and Minerals, requiring the Company to maintain its responsibilities with respect to the conditions of the licences within a period of 60 days.

Fox Marble is fully confident of its ability to continue to maintain the conditions of three of the four licences that had previously been unlawfully annulled. With respect to the fourth licence, in respect of its quarry site in Suhogerll, Fox Marble will be requesting an extension to the deadline by which mining has to commence of at least 12 months in order to ensure its ability to operate that quarry site in full compliance with the laws of Kosovo. This request will be submitted to the ICMM by Nabarro, Fox Marble's lawyers, on behalf of the Company.

Fox Marble expects to be able to resume working on the quarry site in Peja and the sites in Rahovec as soon as the snow clears and weather conditions allow.

Chris Gilbert, CEO of Fox Marble, commented: "We are very pleased that the licences have been restored. Having successfully shipped the first blocks of marble from the Cervenilla quarry, we are now keen to proceed at our other sites as soon as weather conditions in Kosovo allow."
