Eldorado Gold Corp., battling to develop a mine in Greece, surged after the supreme court rejected a government decision to halt mining activities in the north of the country.

Saying its ruling was temporary pending a final environmental review, the court cited the “irreparable damage to the well-being of miners” as its reason to reject the energy ministry’s decision.
