    Last week’s top-gaining stocks on the TSX were Baytex Energy, Gran Tierra, Athabasca Oil, Seven Generations Energy and International Petroleum.

    The S&P/TSX Composite Index (INDEXTSI:OSPTX) was trending upwards early last Friday (June 5), increasing 333.46 points to 15,861.33.

    Rising oil prices were pushing the index up as investors awaited an Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) meeting that could extend supply cuts.

    In other commodities, gold was trading below US$1,700 per ounce on Friday, on track for a weekly loss, while silver was also trending downward. In base metals, copper was heading for a weekly gain, almost touching US$5,500 per tonne.

    Last week’s five TSX-listed mining stocks that saw the biggest gains are as follows:

    • Baytex Energy (TSX:BTE)
    • Gran Tierra Energy (TSX:GTE)
    • Athabasca Oil (TSX:ATH)
    • Seven Generations Energy (TSX:VII)
    • International Petroleum (TSX:IPCO)

    Here’s a look at those companies and the factors that moved their share prices last week.

    Baytex Energy is an oil and gas company engaged in the acquisition, development and production of crude oil and natural gas in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin and in the Eagle Ford in the US.

    Gran Tierra Energy is an independent international energy company focused on oil and natural gas exploration and production in Colombia and Ecuador. Last Monday (June 1), the company announced the completion of the semiannual redetermination of the company’s bank-syndicated credit facility.

    As a result of the news, the company’s share price jumped 68.12 percent to end the week at C$0.58.

    3. Athabasca Oil

    Another Alberta-based energy company, Athabasca Oil is focused on the development of thermal and light oil assets. Last Monday, the company completed the annual review of its credit facilities.

    The company did not release any news last week, but went up by 39.14 percent to reach C$4.04.

    5. International Petroleum
