Cyprium Metals (ASX:CYM) jumped 22% on solid volume, after recently announcing an offtake agreement for 100% (~140,000 tonnes) of the Copper Cathode produced during Phase 1 of its Nifty Copper Project restart, alongside a US$35M Secured Offtake Prepayment Facility through Transamine SA.
Copper Mountain Mining (ASX:C6C) is up about 15% now production has resumed at its 75% owned Copper Mountain Mine located in southern British Columbia near the town of Princeton, following a ransomware attack that brought production to a halt in the final days of 2022.
Turaco Gold (ASX:TCG) went off like a rocket following a chunky gold hit, the highlight being a 26m @ 4.82g/t gold from 35m at the Satama discovery in Côte d’Ivoire.
TCG says the zone of high-grade mineralisation remains open in all directions.
As Gregor noted yesterday: By the end of the day, TCG had added an entire $0.01c to its trading price – which is actually pretty epic, because that’s a better-than-17% rise.
