    Last week’s top-gaining stocks on the TSX were Fission Uranium, Mega Uranium, Global Atomic, Forsys Metals and Laramide Resources. 

    The S&P/TSX Composite Index (INDEXTSI:OSPTX) opened higher last Friday (September 3), trading at 20,809.25 by midday. It closed the five day period at 20,819.98.

    Commodities prices pushed mining stocks up, which supported gains for the index.

    On Friday, gold and silver climbed following a US jobs report that came in well below expectations. Meanwhile, uranium saw a price surge to a six year high, with junior mining stocks also going up.

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

    • Fission Uranium (TSX:FCU)
    • Mega Uranium (TSX:MGA)
    • Global Atomic (TSX:GLO)
    • Forsys Metals (TSX:FSY)
    • Laramide Resources (TSX:LAM)

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

    1. Fission Uranium

    Fission Uranium is a resource company specializing in the strategic exploration and development of the Patterson Lake South uranium property in Canada’s Athabasca Basin.

    Last Tuesday (August 31), Fission published results from its summer resource upgrade drill program. The company saw its share price go up by 37.04 percent last week to reach C$0.74.

    2. Mega Uranium

    Mega Uranium is focused on uranium properties in Canada and Australia. The company also has a portfolio of equity investments in uranium-focused public and private companies.

    3. Global Atomic

    Global Atomic is advancing the large, high-grade Dasa uranium deposit in the Republic of Niger. In addition, the company has a share of the Befesa Silvermet zinc concentrate production facility in Turkey.

    Last week, shares of Global Atomic increased 30.88 percent to end the period at C$3.73.

    4. Forsys Metals

    Forsys Metals is focused on developing uranium projects on the African continent. Currently the explorer owns the Norasa project, which includes the fully permitted Valencia uranium project, and it is also developing the Namibplaas uranium project; both are in Namibia.

    Shares of Forsys Metals increased 30.67 percent last week, trading at C$0.98 by the end of the period.

    5. Laramide Resources

    Uranium company Laramide Resources owns several projects in the US and Australia, including the Churchrock and Crowpoint in situ recovery projects. The miner is also advancing its Utah-based La Sal project and its La Jara Mesa asset in New Mexico.

    Laramide Resources did not release any company news last week, but nevertheless saw its share price increase 30.39 percent to hit C$0.67.

    Investor Insight

    Generation Uranium offers investors high-leverage exposure to a potential major discovery in Canada’s underexplored and resource-rich Thelon Basin, led by a management team with a proven track record of securing high-value exits.

    Overview

    Generation Uranium (CSE:GEN, OTCQB:GENR, FRA:W85) is a Canadian exploration company focused on wealth creation through discovery within the uranium sector. The company’s primary strategy is to build a high-caliber exploration team that can rapidly test and drill high-potential targets, de-risking projects for potential takeover by larger producers. Currently centered in the prolific Thelon and Angikuni Basins of Nunavut, the company is also actively evaluating additional project acquisitions in the Athabasca Basin to expand its portfolio.

    Generation Uranium Yath Project

    The company is led by a veteran management team with nearly 30 years of experience in mineral development. CEO Michael Collins has a significant track record of building and exiting public companies, including the co-founding of Bluerock Resources, a conventional uranium producer during the 2000-2008 cycle. This expertise is paired with a focused business model that leverages modern geophysical targeting to accelerate exploration timelines and reduce costs, ensuring the company can deliver results quickly in a bullish uranium market.

    Company Highlights

    • Strategic Location in a Premier Uranium District: The flagship Yath Project is located in Nunavut’s Thelon Basin, contiguous to ATHA Energy’s Angilak Project, which hosts the high-grade Lac 50 deposit.
    • High-Grade Discovery Potential: Historical surface sampling at the Yath Project has yielded exceptional uranium grades, including boulders testing at 9.81 percent, 3.95 percent, and 2.14 percent U3O8.
    • Expert Management with Exit Experience: Led by CEO Michael Collins, the team has decades of experience in mineral exploration and a history of co-founding companies that were later acquired, such as Prime Mining and Nuclear Fuels.
    • Low-Cost, Rapid Exploration Strategy: By leveraging modern geophysics and extensive historical data, the company aims for a "short road to discovery," de-risking projects quickly to maximize shareholder value.
    • Bullish Market Fundamentals: Generation Uranium is well-positioned to meet the growing global demand for carbon-free nuclear power, supported by a projected supply deficit and increased interest from major tech companies seeking clean energy.

    Key Project

    Yath Project - Nunavut, Canada

    The Yath Project is Generation Uranium’s flagship project. This 100 percent owned property covers about 120 square kilometers within the underexplored Thelon Basin in Nunavut, Canada. The project is located where the Yathkyed and Angikuni sub-basins meet, which is a region known globally for high-grade uranium potential. It sits directly along the same trend as the Angilak Project owned by ATHA Energy (TSXV:SASK, OTCQB:SASFK, FWB:XSU.F), which contains the Lac 50 deposit, one of the highest-grade uranium resources found outside of the Athabasca Basin with a historical mineral resource estimate of 43.3M lbs at an average grade of 0.69 percent U3O8.

    Generation Uranium Yath Project

    The Yath Project is contiguous to the Lac 50 trend and is crossed by several regional faults and basin boundaries. Past exploration work has already identified high priority targets, while surface sampling in the area has produced uranium grades from boulders, with some testing at 9.81 percent, 3.95 percent, and 2.14 percent U3O8.

    The company has commenced its initial field program at the site, set to define and rank drill targets. Historic showings will be combined with new anomalies from the MMT geophysics survey, preparing the project for an anticipated drill permit.

He has co-founded several public companies, including Exploits Discovery, Prime Mining (acquired in 2025), and Nuclear Fuels (merged with Premier American Uranium in 2025). He is also currently a director of First Atlantic Nickel.
