I would like to chime in that the number of shareholders would be of interest, but an average amount of shares per individual is a moot point. A number lets say 60,000 shares is an average. That would disquise how many shareholders have less than that, when one individual may hold 1,000,000 shares. I am one shareholder, with a fair amount of shares. Thats enough for all to know. And I bought in due to the coal to feul conversion, not the gold aspect of it. At 1 penny, a coal play was worth it to me (more fun that the lottery to me also.)
