Market Movers: Winners & Losers, Canadian Markets
 
Top Gainers
AUGC +39.0%: Au Gold Corp
Au Gold engaged Geomorphic AI on 27 October to independently validate drill targeting at its 100%-owned Havelock gold-antimony project in Victoria, Australia, and to generate new Victorian projects. Havelock's 9 km Shaw-McFarlane Trend has never been drilled. Historical records show about 17,097 oz mined there at 28.7 g/t Au between 1864 and 1891, though these figures pre-date NI 43-101.
MSV +25.3%: Minco Silver Corporation
On 16 October, Minco Silver renewed the Luoke-Jilinggang exploration permit for its Fuwan Silver Project in Guangdong, China, extending it to 8 March 2031. It is in talks with several parties on potential transactions for Fuwan and the adjacent Changkeng Gold Project, and some of them are conducting due diligence. No binding agreement has been signed.
XRI +25.0%: Xcite Uranium Inc.
On 5 October, Xcite Uranium began a 1,300 m, six-hole diamond drilling program at the past-producing Black Bay Uranium Mine near Uranium City, Saskatchewan, and added a second rig. Its 2026 trench samples, which are selective, returned up to 1.17% U3O8. Historical records show the mine produced about 1,375 tons at 0.17% U3O8.
 
Top Losers
LGHT -31.8%: Lighthouse Gold Inc.
On 2 November, Lighthouse Gold said it cannot confirm that historical Sardine Hill drill results, including 113.5 m at 1.39 g/t Au, lie within its Mariwa-Sardine Hill property in Guyana's Oko district. The non-NI 43-101 holes are located on a historical local grid rather than by UTM coordinates. The company also moved its private placement close to the week of 9 November, from about 4 November.
CUPR -18.6%: Super Copper Corp.
On 3 November, Super Copper said ALS assays for the first four holes of its maiden Cordillera Cobre program in Chile are in QA/QC review, and it released no results. Eight holes are complete and a deeper ninth hole is underway. The same release disclosed new and extended investor-awareness agreements totalling US$117,000.
BAU -18.0%: Blue Star Gold Corp.
On 26 October, Blue Star Gold reported final 2026 Phase 2 results from its Nunavut projects, including 6.0 m at 8.18 g/t Au in an undercut at North Fold Nose. It also reported 8.0 m at 2.94 g/t Au in a 100 m step-out south of the resource. Intervals are downhole, and true thicknesses have not been determined.

Simandou Offsets Iron-Ore Supply Cuts Elsewhere, Macquarie Says
Macquarie says the Simandou ramp-up in Guinea has single-handedly supported seaborne iron ore volumes as lower prices, high freight rates and diesel costs squeeze other producers. If October shipment rates hold, Simandou's 2026 exports could reach about 28 million tonnes. Iron ore has fallen about 24% from its May peak and dipped below US$90/t last month, a level at which UBS says up to 170 million tonnes of output becomes loss-making.

JPMorgan Sees Potential for US Copper Revival
JPMorgan estimates the US could add up to 1.3 million tonnes of annual copper production through renewed investment, though most is unlikely before 2030. US mined output has halved over 30 years to about 1 million tonnes. The bank sees Rio Tinto and BHP's Resolution Copper in Arizona supplying about half the potential growth, with Freeport-McMoRan holding more than 250,000 tonnes a year of brownfield upside.

AuEq uses US$3,000/oz gold and US$60/oz silver, and intervals are downhole, with true widths estimated at 60% to 100%.
