Moving up, moving over

Heliostar Metals began trading on the TSX on October 7 and Blackrock Silver announced its graduation on October 15. St. James Gold moved from the TSX Venture to the CSE on October 13.

Why it matters

Escrowed and restricted shares do not trade at first, so early prices are set on a thin float. The release dates of each escrow tranche are dates to watch.
