Market Movers: Winners & Losers, Canadian Markets
Top Gainers
RM +31.2%: Roxmore Resources Inc.
Roxmore agreed to be acquired by SSR Mining for C$6.75 a share in cash, a 27% premium to the 9 October close, plus shares in a SpinCo holding Rattlesnake Hills, Shabu River and Newton. The deal implies about US$464 million in equity value for the Converse gold project, 6 km from SSR's Marigold mine in Nevada. Shares closed at C$6.98, above the C$6.75 cash component, with the SpinCo shares still to come.
XTG +14.0%: Xtra-Gold Resources Corp.
Xtra-Gold lifted the Indicated resource at its Kibi Gold Project in Ghana by 33% to 1,404,900 oz at 1.12 g/t from 39,007,000 t, plus 180,800 oz Inferred, across 11 deposits within about 4.5 km. The estimate, effective 1 October 2026, adds 123 diamond holes (27,384.5 m) drilled since the September 2024 update.
ARG +6.8%: Amerigo Resources Ltd.
Amerigo produced 17.0 Mlb of copper in Q3 at a cash cost of US$1.55/lb from its Minera Valle Central operation in Chile, taking year-to-date output to 48.2 Mlb, or 76% of 63.8 Mlb annual guidance. Year-to-date normalised cash cost of US$1.65/lb sits 17% below guidance on higher molybdenum credits. US$69.5 million has been returned to shareholders this year, including US$27.8 million in Q3.
Top Losers
GRD -46.7%: Grounded Lithium Corp.
Grounded Lithium's Kindersley PFS, completed with partner Denison Mines, booked 82,499 t LCE of reserves, the first NI 43-101 lithium reserves declared in Saskatchewan. The reserves support 3,200 t a year of production for C$603.1 million capex. The study returns an NPV of C$125.0 million and a 10.8% IRR, and the fall suggests the market marked down modest returns against the capital required.
VGC -12.0%: Valor Gold Corp.
Valor Gold set Q1 2028 for an updated pre-feasibility study on Courageous Lake in the Northwest Territories, comparing open-pit, underground and combined mining, processing alternatives and tailings configurations. The study will assess adding non-refractory resources, including Walsh Lake's 555,000 oz Inferred, alongside updated metal price and cost assumptions. That timeline puts the next economic update more than a year away.
URE -11.8%: Ur-Energy Inc.
Ur-Energy made its first uranium shipment from Shirley Basin to the Lost Creek plant in Wyoming on 19 August, making it a two-mine ISR producer. Shirley Basin carries licensed capacity of up to 2.0 Mlb U3O8 equivalent. Q2 drumming hit a record 140,873 lb at a cash cost of US$40.20/lb sold, and the shares have slid from C$1.72 at the end of July.

Botswana Said to Near Agreement on Size of Its De Beers Stake
Botswana and the Global Diamond Consortium, preferred bidder for Anglo American's 85% of De Beers, are nearing an agreement that would likely lift the government's stake from 15% to around 25%, according to people familiar with the talks. Botswana, Angola and Namibia would together hold less than 50%, keeping De Beers under private control, a key condition for some consortium backers. The agreement has not been finalised.

Nickel's 2026 Shortage Outlook Just Flipped to a Surplus
The International Nickel Study Group now forecasts a 19,000-tonne surplus in 2026, reversing its April call for a 32,000-tonne deficit, with demand at 3.85 million tonnes against production of 3.87 million tonnes. The 2027 surplus widens to about 70,000 tonnes as output reaches 4.07 million tonnes against 4.00 million tonnes of demand. Stainless steel is driving consumption while LFP batteries slow nickel's growth in EVs.

Gold Fields Has 'Plenty of Capacity' to Pursue Northern Star Deal
Gold Fields is open to sweetening the cash component of its rejected near-A$40 billion offer for Northern Star Resources, and is pitching the benefits of an ASX listing as CEO Mike Fraser courts Australian investors. Fraser said Gold Fields has discussed selling some Northern Star mines to rivals, including Raleigh Finlayson's Genesis Minerals, if the takeover succeeds. That would leave it focused on the Kalgoorlie Super Pit, Alaska's Pogo mine and the undeveloped Hemi project in WA's Pilbara.
