Fertoz followed up Thursday’s 42.86% gain with another +40% surge, after making an announcement on the development of its organic fertiliser product sourced from phosphate.

The company said a two-year field study returned positive results around quality and yield from the product, which has resulted in a steady stream of orders from new and existing clients.

FTZ books more than half its revenue from North America, which has a more advanced economy around carbon taxes and carbon credits.

After recording an RSI surge last week, oil and gas explorer Doriemus (ASX:DOR) continued to run hot in the wake of its $3.3m capital raise.

Also climbing onto this week’s list with an RSI of 82 was Vectus Biosystems (ASX:VBS), which on Thursday announced it’s received approval to run Phase 1 in-human trials in Australia for its VB0004 treatment for fibrotic disease.
