Midnight Sun Mining Corp. (TSXV: MMA | OTCQX: MDNGF) has extended the Dumbwa copper deposit at its Solwezi Project in Zambia to more than 5.3km of continuous strike, with mineralisation remaining open along strike and at depth.
The results follow an extensive drilling campaign exceeding 200 holes and 42,000 metres, confirming a large, near‑surface copper sulphide system in the prolific Domes Region, located near major operations including Kansanshi and Lumwana.
Recent intercepts include:
- 93m at 0.40% Cu
- 80m at 0.39% Cu
- 44m at 0.53% Cu
- 36m at 0.58% Cu
The ongoing drill programme continues to delineate the system, with four rigs currently active targeting extensions along strike as well as previously identified zones to the east and west. Assay results have now been received for approximately the first 4km of drilled strike, with remaining results expected to further extend the system.
Kevin Bonel, chief operating officer of Midnight Sun Mining, commented, “What began as a geological concept has developed into a significant discovery, with more than 5.3 kilometres of continuous mineralised strike defined and supported by over 40,000 metres of drilling. The Dumbwa deposit is emerging as a large, near‑surface, structurally controlled copper sulphide system, with geological characteristics comparable to major regional deposits. Ongoing drilling continues to expand the system, with mineralisation remaining open along strike and across multiple target zones.”
MMA is advancing Dumbwa as a district‑scale discovery within its Solwezi Project, with drilling focused on building scale and defining the full extent of the mineralised system.
