Insights

TL;DR: Insider-related entity sold 600,000 VGZ shares across two transactions, reducing indirect holdings to 15.9 million shares.

The reported sales total 600,000 shares executed at $2.21 and $2.30 per share. The transactions are non-derivative dispositions recorded as indirect ownership, which indicates the shares are held in advisory client accounts rather than direct company holdings. Sale sizes should be evaluated relative to total outstanding shares and typical trading volume to assess market impact; that data is not included in this filing. The filing is explicit that Peter F. Palmedo has indirect beneficial ownership and will file separately once administrative details are available.

TL;DR: Disclosure appears complete for these transactions; beneficial ownership is disclaimed and further reporting by an individual is pending.

The Form 4 discloses the relationship of the reporting entity and provides a footnote clarifying that the securities are held in advisory client accounts and that Sun Valley Gold LLC disclaims beneficial ownership except to the extent of a pecuniary interest. It also notifies that Peter F. Palmedo will separately report indirect holdings. The signature and dates are present, supporting compliance with Section 16 reporting requirements for these disposals.
