It was an unimpressive day for the ASX today with the All Ordinaries Index (ASX: XAO) sagging 0.2% at the market's close. 

Regardless of this lacklustre result, these three ASX shares each had a ripper session, with their share prices all vaulting higher than 9%.

Australian Strategic Materials (ASX: ASM)

Australian Strategic Materials finished the day a massive 15.6% higher to close at $5.47.

The company's cornerstone Dubbo Project is a long-term, sustainable and secure source of rare earths, zirconium, niobium and hafnium.

Avita Medical Inc. (ASX: AVH)

The Avita Medical share price closed 15.3% higher at $5.59. The company's share price first started climbing today after it reported a 57% increase in revenue via its preliminary fiscal second-quarter results.
