Below you will see a PR which ALdm states their intentions to combat the shorts. In addition, they are also pursuing legal methods to correct the situation. Their attorney is working on the necessary papers to file suit against a financial institution.
All this is a bonus though. The company itself shows great revenue potential once they initiate the mining operations.

Our principal gold and diamond concession on the Konkoure River, Guinea, West Africa, has had soil samples from various locations in the mining concession submitted to "Noble Metal labs, of California, as well as "American Assay Laboratories," of Nevada, which verify the presence of Gold and Titanium."
