Staying in Russia, and it was a solid day for palladium group Eurasia Mining (EUA) with the stock rising 13%, the day after the interim results were posted.

Shares of Anglesey Mining (AYM) were up 55% as traders gushed regarding the company’s Parys Mountain copper, zinc, lead, gold and silver project, not surprisingly based in Anglesey. The immediate driver for the excitement was the announcement from the group of a preliminary economic assessment in progress. This follows on from recent technical studies which pointed to up to 10 million tonnes of potentially mineable material, as opposed to 2.1 million tonnes which was suggested in a 2017 study.
There was an understandable flurry higher for Attis Oil & Gas (AOGL), as the stock jumped 16% off recent lows.

This comes in the wake of 2020 to date being one of the better periods for RTOs. Given the description of Attis as one of the cheapest and cleanest shells on the market, with a modest market cap, no debt and retained tax losses, it remains to be seen whether the latest positive momentum can be maintained.
