new egx'r

hey guys- got in with fairly large postion in past few weeks. a few questions if anyone can help. 1. aura has a 51% stake in egx. are they able to trade these shares freely on market. just wondering if they are holding price down. 2. although substantial reserve and near ground, au deposit is lower grade. does this affect the purity potential of the gold (ie. 24k) or just make the refining process longer/more difficult price is right on this one...as far as i'm concerned the only risk is aura buys the other 49% at less than .20c before it has a chance to really take off. a good risk to take in my opinion! glta and thanks!

stockprosp..... typically there is a hold period of 4 months but clearly they have tonnes of free trading shares from previous acquisitions. I suppose they could be selling off some of those 7.5 cent shares..... but it is also important to note they bought nearly 24 million shares at 21 cents and 9 million shares at 11 cents.
