I observe that a look at the "shorting activity" on K92 Mining can be useful since, in relative terms, the activity has been on the high side... Example: During the latest published 2 week period the percentage of total trades that were short trades was 30.238% with a Short Traded value of a little over $24 million. The corresponding numbers for the two weeks prior to August 1st, 2022

What are the avg short volumes for other gold miners of this same size? and of regular companies? TIA

Amishelvis,                     I understand the search for comparisons in your question, but "shorting" can be hugely variable across companies and sectors and, I advise, should not be analysed under "averages"....  example for demonstration purposes only:  Silver Crest (SIL-T) which is well advanced to open a mine
