Over recent weeks, Tartisan Nickel has focused on advancing its 100% owned Kenbridge Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project. On November 20, 2025, the company engaged Rodren Drilling for a Phase 1 diamond drill program, which saw a modest -3.07% reaction. A $1,050,000 flow-through private placement closed on December 4, 2025, with shares up 10.62%. The current December 5 mobilization update, tied to that drill program, coincided with a 15.71% gain, reinforcing positive market reception to concrete project progress.
Market Pulse Summary
The stock surged +15.7% in the session following this news. A strong positive reaction aligns with recent trading, where prior Kenbridge updates saw gains of 10.62% and 15.71%. The mobilization of Rodren Drilling formalized the transition from planning to execution, building on November’s contract announcement and December’s financing. However, earlier drilling-related news drew a -3.07% move, showing that enthusiasm has not always been linear and that follow-through on results remained an important risk factor for trend sustainability.
