Immuron (ASX:IMC) jumped 80% after announcing interim topline results confirming the efficacy of Travelan in preventing diarrhoea following a bout of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC).  The study on 60 patients show that a single daily dose of Travelan is 36.4% effective in the prevention of moderate to severe diarrhoea induced by ETEC, when compared to the placebo group in the study. Around 66.7% protective efficacy against ETEC-induced severe diarrhoea was also observed in the patients taking Travelan, compared to the placebo group (secondary endpoint).

Heavy Minerals (ASX:HVY) has signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding with ABSS for the future sales of a minimum of 15,000 tonnes per annum of garnet to be produced at its Port Gregory Project for an initial three-year period. This offtake will account for approximately 10% of the Company’s annual future Garnet production at its Port Gregory Project and will be sold into the Australian and New Zealand sand blasting and water jet cutting markets by ABSS.

Widgie Nickel (ASX:WIN) says its Mt Edwards project has benefited from the Federal Government’s call to put nickel on the critical list, as that has propelled the project into feasible, standalone territory. Widgie says a fresh scoping study shows that it’s good for an 800ktpa standalone nickel concentrator producing 103,000tpa @ 10.1% Ni concentrate for 10,380 tonnes of contained nickel per year.
