Largest gains on the ASX Tuesday 5 April 2022
Sovereign Metals (SVM) was the top mover on the ASX today. Shares in the company rose 18.3% to $0.71.
Shares in Sovereign Metals soared today following its latest announcement to the ASX. The company said it found the world's largest rutile deposit and the second-largest graphite deposit.
The company notes that there will be a potentially higher-grade throughput, which will increase the life of the site. At the same time, Sovereign Metals says that it is targeting a large-scale, low-carbon-footprint and environmentally sustainable natural rutile and graphite operation. This will positively impact the environmental footprint of titanium pigment and other industries and provide a significant contribution to the economy of Malawi.
Sovereign's managing director Dr Julian Stephens commented:
"It is a really remarkable achievement by our team to have made the largest natural rutile discovery ever in just 2 years since initial identification. The Joint Ore Reserves Committee (JORC) Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) of this scale and grade is clearly highly strategic, tier 1 and of global significance in a market where natural rutile is in an extreme supply deficit."
Sovereign Metals is part of the materials sector.
