Caspian Sunrise, up 42% at 3.55 pence, 12-month range 2.06-5.9p. The oil & gas exploration and production company explains that selling oil to the international market is currently less attractive than selling domestically. This is because the $25 to $30 per barrel discount for oil sent through Russian pipelines, together with taxes, are still set at the full Brent price. As a result, Caspian Sunrise explains that all output is now being sold domestically. Further, to take advantage of changes in regulations that will allow the oil company to sell its own production direct to international and domestic buyers from the start of next year, Caspian Sunrise creates a new wholly-owned oil trading subsidiary.

Thor Mining PLC, up 13% at 0.54p, 12-month range 0.45-1p. The miner says drilling returned ‘high grade’ gold from the silicified altered contact along Kelly’s Ridge, at the Ragged Range in Eastern Pilbara, Western Australia. It reports the best intercept to date of 4 metres at 12.2 grammes per tonne gold from 194 metres. ‘This confirms the potential of the site as indicated by historical drilling. Furthermore, with more drilling results to come, we are looking forward to gaining further understanding of the project. We anticipate more positive news to be shared with the market in due course,’ said Managing Director Nicole Galloway Warland.
