10 at 10: These ASX stocks are on the charge this morning

Stockhead’s Top 10 at 10 highlights the best (and worst) performing ASX small caps in morning trade.

It’s a short, sharp update to help frame the trading day by showing the biggest movers in percentage terms.

The market opens at 10am (eastern time) and the data is taken at 10:15am, once every stock has commenced trading.

Stocks highlighted in yellow have made potentially market-moving announcements (click headings to sort):

Alta Zinc (ASX: AZI) got off to a good start, after drill results revealed “thick, high-grade intercepts of zinc, lead and silver mineralisation” at its Gorno project in Lombardia, northern Italy.

On the flipside, shares in Altech Chemical (ASX:ATC) fell after a botched capital raise, where German regulators denied the company’s proposed rights issue due to a spelling error in its application documents. Altech said it will “move quickly to re-commence the rights offer process”.
