4 ASX shares seeing big gains today 

Cyprium Metals Ltd (ASX: CYM) 

Cyprium Metals is a copper and gold explorer with a number of projects in the Murchison region of Western Australia. The company is currently undergoing a scoping study to determine the parameters required to develop a copper project in the region. 

The Cyprium share price opened as high as 30% higher today following the initial results of its reverse circulation drilling program at its Nanadie Well project. Its shares are currently 7.5% higher at the time of writing, on the highest trading volume since inception. 

Executive Director Barry Cahill was pleased with the preliminary investigations. 

We are pleased to announce the first results from the January 2021 Nanadie Well supergene RC drilling campaign. These fantastic results from the first four holes of the programme provide strong support to our understanding and demonstrate the potential of the supergene horizon at Nanadie Well.

We anticipate continued positive news flow over the coming weeks as the results for the remaining 62 holes are received.
