Almonty Industries Nears a Defining Moment as Sangdong Starts Processing and the TSX Listing Winds Down
Published on 07/23/2026 at 19:22 | Redaktion boerse-global.de
July has become a month of stark contrasts for Almonty Industries. The tungsten developer has finally crossed the line from builder to producer at its Sangdong mine in South Korea, yet its share price is heading in the opposite direction. The stock has shed roughly a quarter of its value over the past 30 days, landing at C$19.57 — a 24.16% decline — as the market weighs the promise of first revenues against the friction of a voluntary delisting from the Toronto Stock Exchange.
The TSX listing ends at the close of trading on July 31. Almonty is consolidating its trading onto the Nasdaq, where the bulk of daily volume already flows, in a bid to cut the administrative and regulatory costs of a dual listing. No shareholder vote is required under TSX rules, and the move leaves the company's Frankfurt and Australian Securities Exchange listings untouched. Canadian retail investors can still trade through brokers that support Nasdaq access, but the transition is adding a layer of uncertainty to an already volatile period.
The Technical Hurdle That Will Define the Near Term
All eyes are now on the ramp-up at Sangdong's processing plant, which began feeding ore on July 1. The facility is designed to handle 640,000 tonnes of ore annually, yielding 2,300 tonnes of tungsten concentrate. Whether the stock can stabilize depends on a single operational question: can the plant hit those throughput targets in its early weeks? A smooth ramp-up would validate the company's long-term revenue forecasts. Any stumble, and the selling pressure that has built over the past month could accelerate.
The 200-day moving average, currently at C$19.12, is the key support level to watch. The stock is trading just 2.41% above that line, leaving little margin for error. A break below it would signal that the correction has further to run, regardless of how the production story unfolds.
Should investors sell immediately? Or is it worth buying Almonty?
A 21-Year Offtake Deal Anchors the Bull Case
For all the near-term noise, the fundamental picture has rarely been stronger. Almonty's expanded offtake agreement with Global Tungsten & Powders, signed in July, extends the contract from 15 to 21 years and lifts the volume by 40% to 4.41 million metric tonne units. The company also secured a price premium of roughly 6.3%. Nearly 90% of Phase 1 output is now tied to Western defense and industrial buyers through the late 2040s — a level of revenue visibility that is rare among junior resource companies.
The stock has still managed a 220.90% gain over the past twelve months, and a 66.69% advance since the start of 2026, even after the recent pullback. Inclusion in the Russell 1000 and Russell 3000 indices at the end of June should help keep institutional investors on board as trading shifts fully to the Nasdaq.
Insider Sales and the Delisting Overhang
The bear case is equally concrete. The stock sits 41.30% below its 52-week high of C$33.35, and the annualized 30-day volatility of 81.35% reflects deep uncertainty about the weeks ahead. Insider sales reported in July have added to the unease, suggesting that those closest to the project are taking some chips off the table after the run from the 52-week low of C$4.36.
The delisting itself could amplify the selling pressure. Canadian retail investors who are unwilling or unable to move their holdings to the Nasdaq may liquidate positions ahead of the deadline. The 14-day RSI of 42.6 points to neutral territory — no panic, but no momentum either.

What Comes Next
The next concrete catalyst will be the first report on saleable concentrate volumes from the July-August window. If those numbers align with the design specifications, the stock should find a floor. If they disappoint, deeper support levels could come into play. Further out, the Phase 2 studies expected later this year will outline Almonty's plan to double production by 2027.
For now, the company is navigating two transitions at once: from developer to producer, and from a dual-listed stock to a single home on the Nasdaq. The next few weeks will show whether the operational story can outrun the structural disruption.
