One is charging ahead of the 0.2% losses posted by the ASX 200 in morning trade on Monday, while the other two are trailing that performance.

ASX 200 gold stock Resolute Mining Ltd (ASX: RSG)
Resolute Mining shares are down 5% today, trading for $1.29 apiece.
The West African-focused ASX 200 gold stock is making headlines following an update on its Syama Gold Mine, located in Mali.
Resolute reported that production at Syama has remained below plan due to the challenging operating environment in Mali. This is impacting performance across underground mining, open-pit mining, and sulphide processing at the project.
The miner revised its 2026 gold production forecast for Syama to 150,000 to 160,000 ounces at an all-in sustaining cost (AISC) of $2,300 to $2,400 per ounce.
With Resolute Mining's other assets remaining on track, the company now expects its total gold 2026 production to be 205,000 ounces to 225,000 ounces at an AISC of $2,250 to $2,350 per ounce.
Resolute Mining CEO Chris Eger said:
While the near-term impact at Syama is disappointing, the broader business remains supported by a strong gold price environment and disciplined cost management. These actions will enable us to continue generating positive returns and build a stronger platform for operational performance in 2027.
Bellevue Gold Ltd (ASX: BGL)
Bellevue Gold shares are down 1.2%, trading for $1.60 each.
This comes after the ASX 200 gold stock released an exploration update and its annual Resource and Reserve statement for its owned Bellevue Gold Project, located in Western Australia.
Bellevue said that exploration drilling will form an important element of its renewed growth strategy, with exploration set to "substantially increase" in FY 2027.
The miner also revealed that the Bellevue Gold Project now has an Indicated and Inferred Resource of 2.7 million ounces at 8.6 grams per tonne gold. That compares to 3.1Moz at 8.9g/t gold last year.
Which brings us to…
Ramelius Resources Ltd (ASX: RMS)
The third ASX 200 gold stock turning heads today is Ramelius Resources. And unlike the other two Aussie gold miners, Ramelius Resources shares are leaping higher, up 4.9% and trading for $3.76 apiece.
This follows the release of the gold miner's FY 2027 production forecast and four-year outlook.
Investors are reacting positively to Ramelius' FY 2027 gold production guidance of 205,000 to 225,000 ounces of gold at an AISC of $2,150 to $2,350 per ounce.
And management increased the miner's FY 2030 gold production target by 11% to 560,000 to 610,000 ounces at an AISC of $2,100 to $2,400 per ounce.
