New
Park Mining Company - Voting Proxy
As mining companies grew and the number and location of stockholders
increased, holding company meetings could be quite a challenge. In order to vote on company matters, you had to be present.
If you could not be present, you either did not get to vote, or you could have a proxy. A proxy is a person or entity that
you authorize to vote on your behalf, as if you were there.
In the sample below, we have a voting proxy for the New Park Mining Company from 1961.
