The Panoramic share price is up 10% to 21.5 cents. This morning Panoramic provided an update on its definition drilling at the Savannah Nickel Project in Western Australia.

They also support the development of a second mining front to support mining operations at Savannah North.
Qualitas Ltd (ASX: QAL)
The Qualitas share price has jumped 24% to $2.08.
