Almonty Industries shares are jumping as traders refocus on the company’s near-term shift from development into production at its flagship Sangdong tungsten operation in South Korea. The key catalyst in the current narrative is the completion of Phase 1 commissioning in March 2026, which has helped reinforce expectations for a production ramp through 2026 and increased leverage to strengthening tungsten pricing.

The bullish setup is being supported by unusually strong tungsten-market commentary, including sharply higher APT price levels cited into March 2026. Almonty’s latest financial reporting also highlighted a three-month average APT price around US$2,250 per MTU as of March 13, 2026—keeping investor focus on margin upside as Sangdong scales.

Investors are likely to focus on (1) evidence that Sangdong moves from commissioning into stable output, (2) any updates to the Phase II expansion timeline, and (3) upcoming financial releases for clearer read-through on ramp costs versus realized tungsten prices. Management has framed 2026 priorities around advancing Sangdong toward full-scale Phase 1 commercial operation and then moving to Phase II, putting operational execution at the center of the story.
