IAU holds 3.21 million ounces of Gold and has 328 million shares outstanding. Hence, each share of IAU represents approximately 1/10'th ounce of physical gold bullion.

Not .1, but .01.

One oz of gold is about $1600, one share of IAU is about $16.00 so you wouldn't expect them to hold one oz of gold for each share.
