streettracksgoldshares.com Read page 50.
The Trust will create and redeem Shares from time to time, but only in one or more Baskets (a Basket
equals a block of 100,000 Shares). The creation and redemption of Baskets will only be made in
exchange for the delivery to the Trust or the distribution by the Trust of the amount of gold and any cash
represented by the Baskets being created or redeemed, the amount of which will be based on the
combined NAV of the number of Shares included in the Baskets being created or redeemed determined on
the day the order to create or redeem Baskets is properly received.


As I understand they accept cash only because they may have some gold for sale to cover expenses.
