LONDON (SHARECAST) - Mining stocks were tracking their FTSE 100 counterparts higher with Talvivaara, New World Resources, and African Barrick Gold all making strong gains, boosted by better-than-expected GDP data from Australia and rising metals prices.
Energy firm Premier Oil rose after seeing an encouraging drilling result on the Carnaby exploration well 28/09-5A in the Central North Sea Block 28/9.
India-focused integrated energy company Essar Energy was also higher after completing its optimisation project at its Vadinar refinery four months ahead of schedule.
