"What I'm not sure about is how this pertains to SFMI/GHDC held in IRAs....that may involve some sort of trust."

Any words of wisdom on how to work this into IRA's from anyone would be appreciated? I am completely at a loss.

Also keep in mind that anyone that either takes direct registration option or the paper certificate option takes shares off the market from your broker that can be shorted.

Lastly here is an idea of what is required by the company for the transfer agent to register your shares with the transfer agent. This is a form used by Golden Minerals as an example.

Also I informed Rich at IR that he should notify all companies that he represents to pass this on to their respective management teams for review also. For those of you that own Scorpio Mining I also requested Rich follow up with management on this action. I also contacted Scorpio's Canadian IR rep to get the interest started.
