Have Leaf Resources 's shares ever split?

Leaf Resources 's shares were split on a 1:20 basis on 1 June 2010. So if you had owned 20 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share.

However, indirectly, the new 1900% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Leaf Resources shares which in turn could have impacted Leaf Resources 's share price.
