The central Europe focused coal and coke producer, New World Resources, appears to have won a court case in Amsterdam that will enable the acquisition of all the remaining 'A' shares in its Dutch arm.

New World Resources says it intends to proceed with the acquisitions once the appeals period has lapsed on September 19th.
