Here are the key ASX small cap winners and losers at lunchtime Monday July 16.
The ASX Small Ords was up 2.8 points or 0.1 per cent to 2846 at 12.30pm AEST.
GOING UP
Hardey Resources (ASX:HDY) gained another 50 per cent to start the week, reaching an intraday high of 0.6c by 11.30am, after the company decided last week to fast-track due diligence at its Nelly vanadium mine in Argentina.
The mine has been closed since 1957 but the company says the discovery of “substantial” legacy stockpiles near the old mine’s operations is a good reason to get cracking on a review of the site.
Investor Chapmans (ASX:CHP) was also a top small cap gainer for the first half of the day, up 50 per cent to 0.3c. It announced an $830,000 placement from sophisticated shareholders last Thursday.
Esports play Emerge Gaming (ASX:EM1) was up by as much as 53 per cent to an intraday high of 2.3c on news it had struck a deal with South African telcos.

The company has successfully rolled out “integrated billing” for its Arcade X gaming product across all major phone providers in the country, meaning it can accept payments from South African users of its platform directly through phone billers.
Emerge says the partnerships will give it access to 50 million potential paying customers in South Africa.
Fellow esports play Esports Mogul (ASX:ESH) also jumped 20 per cent to a high of 3.6c, with no news out to investors.
No need to fear the dodgy fish curry served up by your cut rate airline, as Aussie biotech Immuron (ASX:IMC) is moving its anti-gastro pill into pre-clinical trials.
None other than the US Department of Defense (DOD) is funding the $55 million company’s study to find a way to kick Delhi belly in the gut before it starts — after the last of three studies suggests it might work.
Immuron shares gained 12 per cent to 38.5c in early Monday trade.
