HotCopper Trends: Final day of quarterlies; Larvotto FID & more

31 Jul 2025 11:41 (AEST)

Welcome to HotCopper Trends for Thursday 31st of July – the last day ahead of Washington’s apparent move to un-pause sweeping tariffs.

But that’s neither here nor there. (Nor is the fact that this is the last time we should have to deal with a slog of quarterlies, ignoring the fact we head into full year confession season soon.)

Here’s a quick list of what’s trending on the HC forums intraday on Thursday.

  • Larvotto Resources (ASX:LRV) – After a solid year lifted on antimony upside since China first began curbing exports of that tech metal, Larvotto Resources has finally arrived upon a positive FID for its Hillgrove project. There’s still a lot of work to be done, but the market liked the news. Though, with shares up around +3.5% to 80cps, it looks like a go-ahead was already priced in.
  • St George Mining (ASX:SGQ) – The company has reported hitting rare earths outside its existing JORC-compliant resource boundary envelope, but with relatively short drill intersections, it appears the market was left wanting more. Still, shares didn’t sell off.
  • Metal Hawk (ASX:MHK) – Not so much the case for Metal Hawk, whose latest RC gold drilling results have done the opposite of causing excitement; instead seeing shares down -50% intraday as grades came in lower than what many traders and investors would have liked.
