Harte Gold Corp. (TSX:HRT), meanwhile, reported that it has received approval to increase its operational throughput from 540 tonnes per day to 800 tpd, which could  increase gold production at minimal cost from 41,000 ounces to 65,000 ounces per year.

Harte Gold stock moved up 10% to $0.27 following the announcement.

Finally, Victoria Gold Corp. (TSXV:VIT) shares rose 13% to $0.445 after the gold junior announced that construction at its Eagle Gold Mine in the Yukon is more than 90% complete and the Company is currently targeting a first gold pour early in Q4 2019.
