Steve Yang sits down with Adrian O’Brien, Vice President of Business Development and Communications at Midnight Sun Mining, to examine the company’s copper exploration strategy in Zambia. Midnight Sun is advancing the Solwezi Copper Project, led by the Dumbwa copper system within the prolific Zambia-Congo Copperbelt. Adrian explains why management is applying a systematic fence-drilling program across Dumbwa’s 20-kilometre copper-in-soil anomaly and how the company is evaluating the scale, continuity, and higher-grade zones within the system. The discussion covers the project’s proximity to major operations including First Quantum’s Kansanshi Mine and Barrick Mining’s Lumwana Mine, along with Zambia’s established mining sector and developing transportation infrastructure. Adrian also reviews Kazhiba Main, its near-surface indicated copper resource, and the strategy to potentially monetize the asset as a non-dilutive funding source for continued work at Dumbwa. The interview closes with Midnight Sun’s financing history, institutional and insider ownership, treasury position, M&A objective, and the experience of the leadership team.
