It is difficult to believe that auryn as well as individuals connected to auryn could have purchased hundreds of millions of shares without knowing that the actual outstanding shares were closer to 3 billion than 1.5 billion.
I hope they didn't know and I hope they are angry as hell and do something about it.
What was Les thinking? Did the partnership with auryn blow up in his face? Did the "property" prevent a graceful NPER style exist? Did time catch up to him? Or is he now living the good life on some island paradise as planned?
