Why did SGQ rise 8.7% on 20 Jan 2026?
ST George · Materials
What moved it
St George Mining shares rallied alongside other ASX mining and rare earth stocks, likely due to sector-wide interest in critical minerals and the company's MoU with a US magnet manufacturer.
The available news does not directly explain the Jan 19 move as a company-specific announcement, pointing instead to broader sector flows. The MoU news is close in time but dated two days later, making it a less likely catalyst for the specific price spike.
