First gold production from Gold Road's 50%-owned Gruyere mine with Gold Fields has led to a re-rating, with the stock up 108% so far this year.

The company is now valued at A$1.2 billion heading into the Precious Metals Summit and Denver Gold Forum in Colorado next week.

Despite a 30% fall in Silver Lake shares in recent weeks, the stock is still up 88.3% so far this year.

For Silver Lake, it's a return to the index after a five-year absence.

Silver Lake was first added to the ASX 200 in December 2011, but was removed in June 14. The company re-joined the ASX 300 in March.

The two smaller producers will join existing ASX 200 gold miners Newcrest Mining, Northern Star Resources, Evolution Mining, St Barbara, Saracen Mineral Holdings, Regis Resources and Resolute Mining.

Gold producer Alacer Gold, developer West African Resources and explorer Bellevue Gold were added to the ASX 300.

Champion Iron and Nickel Mines also joined the ASX 300.

Silver Lake, Bellevue, Nickel Mines and Champion were all nominated for 2019 MNN Awards earlier this year, reflecting their strong performances.

Mining equipment provider Emeco Holdings will be removed from the ASX 200.

Metals X, Altura Mining and OM Holdings have all dropped about 53% so far this year and will be removed from the ASX 300.

Nickel-cobalt developer Clean TeQ Holdings will also leave the ASX 300.

Graphite producer Syrah Resources, down 51.7% this year, will be removed from the ASX All Australian 200.

There could be more pain on the way for Syrah shareholders with the company calling a trading halt this morning over "graphite market conditions and operational response".
