So we have a small increase to OS but a large decrease to warrants outstanding? Easy answer you might think? Obviously the 200 million October warrants expired:
On October 18, 2010, the Company entered into a membership purchase agreement with Allied Mining and Supply, LLC for the purchase of 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interest of Allied Mining, a Nevada Limited Liability company, which owns the rights to Exploration License #EXPL 5/2009 on the 140 sq km Pampana River concession in Sierra Leone, West Africa.
In consideration for the purchase of the membership interests, the Company agreed to pay $18,0000 cash and issue 100,000,000 units at a deemed price of $0.0025 to Allied Mining. Each unit consists of one share of restricted stock, one 12 month share purchase warrant exercisable at $0.0025 per share and one 12 month share purchase warrant exercisable at $0.005 per share.
But this is also from mikeymgd on september 23:
There are no warrants issued with an expiration in October.
The ONLY possible thing I can think of and I may be daydreaming here, but the numbers could suggest the co is matching warrant exercises with share purchases to keep the OS down, or simply buying back warrants?
Really not sure here, don't know how to justify the large decrease in outstanding warrants and small increase in OS when there was nothing scheduled to expire.
