Notes to editors:

Fox Marble Holdings Plc is an AIM quoted natural stone extraction company operating in Kosovo, with headquarters in the United Kingdom.

The Company has been granted mining licences in relation to five separate marble quarries and has a large high quality marble resource including white breccia and honey yellow onyx. Its maiden JORC compliant resource as set out in the Competent Person's Report prepared by Golder Associates (UK) Limited, shows indicated marble resources of 91.4 million m(3) and inferred marble resources of 235 million m(3) with an in-situ valuation of approximately Euro16.5 billon.

The Company has commenced quarrying operations at one quarry and expects to commence operations at a second before the end of the year prior to building a processing plant and developing a sales network for the marble. Management intends to open two subsequent quarries in the first half of 2014, with equipment funded from operating cash flows.

The Group intends to sell a limited amount of unprocessed marble blocks to generate early cashflows while the processing plant is under construction, a process which is expected to take a period of approximately 10 months. Once completed, the Group will focus primarily on selling polished marble slabs on an ex-factory gate basis to the wholesale market for ultimate use in the construction and decorative industries across the world.

Marble is substantially more valuable once processed and it attracts a broader market for sales. Once completed the plant will begin to process and polish marble blocks extracted from the quarries into slabs. The Board expect to recover 70% cent of the total volume of blocks after allowing for wastage due to quality control measures.
