RNC Minerals (TSX:RNX) shares powered 47% higher to $0.25 on Monday after the resource junior announced that it expects to undertake a series of initiatives during 2018 to position the Company to make a decision to begin construction of the Dumont Nickel-Cobalt Project in 2019.

As well, shares of RHC Capital Corporation (TSXV:RHC) plunged 71% to $0.04 as the helium explorer said it has suspended operations near Bengough, Saskatchewan, as initial results from the recompletion operations in both prospective zones have not returned sufficient quantities of gas to date to warrant production testing.

Finally, Anaconda Mining Inc. (TSX:ANX) shares gained 9% to $0.125 after the gold explorer announced initial assay results for the recently-announced diamond drill program near the Argyle deposit in Newfoundland, which included 12.47 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 5.0 metres.
