Sunridge Gold was the top-gaining stock on the TSXV last week, followed by Eloro Resources, Rye Patch Gold, Crystal Peak Minerals and Tintina Resources.
The S&P/TSX Venture Composite index (INDEXTSI:JX) sank another 1.39 percent last week, closing out at 534.28 points. The exchange has lost 46 percent over the past three months and 161 percent since the start of 2015.

Sunridge Gold
Canadian explorer Sunridge Gold is focused on developing base metals and gold deposits in Africa, and is specifically focused on its Asmara project in Eritrea. The junior miner’s share price spiked on Friday after it announced it has entered an agreement to sell its 60-percent interest in Asmara to China’s Sichuan Road & Bridge Mining Investment Development for an upfront payment of US$65 million. Sunridge was up 41 percent for the week, trading at $0.24.

Eloro’s share price rose 16.67 percent last week to end at $0.14. The company holds a 60-percent interest in the La Victoria gold-silver property in Peru, and holds a number of gold, base metals and royalty properties in Quebec. On October 8, Eloro released assay results from channel samples taken from the Rufina East and Rufina West mineralized zones, with results ranging from 1.33 g/t gold and 15 g/t silver to 16.6 g/t gold, 157.3 g/t silver and 1.41 percent copper. There has been no further news from the company to explain last week’s rise in share price.
Rye Patch Gold
Last week, Nevada-focused Rye Patch Gold was up 16 percent, closing at $0.145 per share.
