Midnight Sun Makes Strategic Acquisition of Luswishi Dome Project
Midnight Sun enters into an Earn-In Agreement to acquire the Luswishi Dome Project, located approximately 40 kilometers southeast of the Solwezi Project, in the Domes Region of Zambia Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 28, 2025) - Midnight Sun Mining Corp. (TSXV: MMA) (OTC Pink: MDNGF) ('Midnight Sun' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce that the Company has entered into an Earn-In and Operating Agreement (the 'Earn-In Agreement') with Zambezi Mint Investment Limited regarding the 366 square kilometre Luswishi Dome Project, located approximately 40 kilometres southeast of the Company's Solwezi Project, in Zambia. Midnight Sun's President & CEO, Al Fabbro, states, 'The presence of domal structures has long been recognized as a hallmark of major copper discoveries in the region, and it is exactly what led us to our Solwezi Project over a decade ago. This same geological feature underpins the world-class deposits and operating mines surrounding us, including Barrick's Lumwana Mine, First Quantum's Kansanshi and Sentinel Mines, and Ivanhoe's Kamoa-Kakula -- all excellent examples of world-class domes deposits. So, when Midnight Sun had the rare opportunity to secure what may be the last remaining Dome in the district not already controlled by a major or us, we moved quickly. The project boasts not only a highly prospective geological setting, but also an exceptional historical data package from previous operators. This head start allows us to fast-track exploration, saving both time and capital as we drive the Luswishi Project toward drilling and discovery. This acquisition strengthens our position in a highly competitive district and aligns with our strategy of targeting high-impact assets with near-term discovery potential. Midnight Sun is firmly positioned as a leading explorer in Zambia.' *Location map for the Luswishi Project provided below. Terms of the Earn-In Agreement The Earn-In Agreement consists of three stages: Stage 1: To earn an initial 51% ownership of the licence, Midnight Sun must complete CAD $750,000 worth of exploration and development expenditures on the licence within 24 months of the agreement date. Stage 2: To earn an additional 19% (70% cumulative ownership) of the licence, Midnight Sun can sole fund an NI 43-101 compliant inferred mineral resource within 24 months of the completion of Stage 1.

Midnight Sun Announces Exploration Progress at Solwezi
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 21, 2025) - Midnight Sun Mining Corp. (TSXV: MMA) (OTC Pink: MDNGF) ('Midnight Sun' or the 'Company') presents a progress update regarding the previously announced 2025 phase one exploration campaign. Work is underway on all three key targets and is expected to continue across several phases throughout the work season to rapidly advance the Company's Solwezi Project in Zambia. Update summaries provided for each target, with detailed description provided below: Dumbwa: Dipole-Dipole Induced Polarization ('IP') Survey is ~30% complete. Kazhiba: Diamond drill contractor engaged, drill pads currently being cleared and prepared. Drilling at the Kazhiba Target 2 sulphide target is expected to begin May 26 th. Mitu: Partial Ionic Leach Survey is ~46% complete. Midnight Sun's President & CEO, Al Fabbro, states: 'We recently announced the commencement of our exploration program, designed and led by our Chief Operating Officer, Dr. Kevin Bonel. This campaign aims to advance all three of our key target areas from conceptual or early-stage discovery to well-defined assets worthy of significant development investment—within just a few months. 'We believe these targets have the potential to evolve into world-class copper discoveries. Dr. Bonel's approach is disciplined, methodical, and proven — the same strategy he successfully applied at Barrick's Lumwana Mine, transforming it from a Tier 2 asset into Zambia's latest Tier 1 copper project i. 'This marks the first time our targets are being explored with such a rigorous and comprehensive methodology. We are confident in the potential of our assets, and with this program underway we are firmly positioned to demonstrate our commitment to unlocking significant value and delivering transformative discoveries.' Dumbwa Program Progress Following comprehensive geological mapping and site preparation over the 20-kilometre strike length of the Dumbwa copper-in-soil anomaly, 24 of the 34 planned geophysical lines have been cleared, mapped, and prepared for surveying. Dipole-dipole IP has been completed on ten lines. This survey is designed to generate a detailed subsurface profile, including dip direction, depth of the targeted geology, and the relationship between surface geochemical anomalies and potential sulphide copper mineralization at depth. The data generated from the IP survey will guide highly targeted drilling with the program expected to commence shortly after IP results are received. Kazhiba Program Progress Site access and drill pad preparation are completed at Kazhiba in advance of the sulphide drill program. Baba Drilling and Exploration Co. has been contracted to carry out diamond drilling on the 'Kazhiba Target 2" sulphide copper target. Drilling is expected to start on or around May 26 th. Six to eight diamond drill holes totalling approximately 1,000 metres are planned on the recently identified ~four-kilometre by two-kilometre Kazhiba sulphide copper target. This target is characterized by a significantly elevated copper signature in Partial Ionic Leach testing, a strong VTEM geophysical anomaly, and high chargeability/low resistivity responses from IP geophysics. The target also coincides with a subtle traditional geochemical response, and is situated in geology consistent with most deposits within the Zambian Copperbelt. The Company believes that the correlation of key characteristics may represent the potential sulphide source of the transported oxide material discovered on the Kazhiba License and is a strong target for the discovery of a copper mineralised stratigraphic unit. The Company's planned reverse circulation ('RC') drill program on the Kazhiba oxide copper targets is scheduled to begin following the completion of the current Partial Ionic Leach sampling program at Mitu The oxide drill plan includes approximately 4,000 metres of shallow RC drilling on near-surface oxide copper targets. This includes 20-25 holes targeting the north-northeast extension of the previously delineated high-grade transported oxide copper blanket, as well as approximately 125 holes testing the three new targets identified by previously completed Partial Ionic Leach sampling. Mitu Program Progress At Mitu, an extensive Partial Ionic Leach sampling program is underway to test the entire Mitu Trend along the western flank of the Solwezi Dome. The Company plans to collect approximately 1,800 samples at Mitu for Partial Ionic Leach analysis. The sampling program is progressing quickly, with ~46% of the sampling completed to-date. Sampling is expected to conclude in two weeks' time. The results of this program will drive a follow up IP survey to identify potential mineralized zones and prioritize targets for drilling. Previous work in the Mitu area identified a stratigraphic sulphide unit with drill results including 11.6 metres of 3.44% copper and 11.5 metres of 1.41% copper. Follow up targeting of this sulphide mineralization is planned using phased methodology of Partial Ionic Leach soil sampling, followed by dipole-dipole IP survey, and diamond drilling. Given that Mitu has similar regolith to Kazhiba, which is generally unresponsive to traditional geochemical analysis, and given the positive results generated using Partial Ionic Leach sampling at Kazhiba, this technology is expected to more effectively identify and track further copper targets along the Mitu trend for the follow up described above.

5 places on Earth where the sun never sets
Setting of the sun often signals a time to rest, recharge, or reflect. But what if the sun remained a constant presence, never dipping below the horizon to let the night sky take over? Several parts of the Earth during the summer season witness an awe-inspiring natural phenomenon called Midnight Sun , where nights never come and the sun keeps the sky aglow well past the bedtime, blurring the lines between day and night. The Earth's tilt during this time of the year results in continuous daylight as the sun never fully goes below the horizon in these locations. However, the upside is there is more time for outdoor activities such as hiking or kayaking, and exploring nature. A horde of tourists head to these locations during summer to enjoy a host of activities planned during these months. From Scandinavia to North America, here are destinations that don't see darkness for an extended time: 1. Norway Located deep within the Arctic Circle , Norway practically coined the term Midnight Sun. Between May and July, the country enjoys around 76 days of continuous daylight. One of the best spots to experience this marvel is Hammerfest, one of the northernmost towns in the world. The experience is nothing short of magical. Imagine late-night kayaking under a glowing sky or sipping coffee on a fjord-side patio at 2 am with the sun still shining. Locals embrace the extra hours with hiking, boating, and festivals that run into the small hours without ever needing artificial light. Downside is the disruption of sleep cycle and circadian rhythm. Prolonged exposure to sun is also linked to skin damage and other health issues. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 'Swing is King': Top Trader Hemant's Strategy Finally Explained in this Free Session ! TradeWise Learn More Undo 2. Utqiaġvik, Alaska Utqiaġvik, formerly Barrow, is the northernmost city in the United States and is one of the rare places that experience perpetual daylight 24/7, over almost 80 consecutive days. This happens during late May through early August. Blessed with a beautiful landscape, in Utqiaġvik, a stunning place where the tundra meets the Arctic Ocean, life slows but never sleeps. 3. Finland's Lapland Summer months are nothing short of magical in Northern Finland, particularly in Lapland, where for 4 months the sun continues to shine bright and night sky with all those celestial beauties disappear for a while. From May to August, the sun barely kisses the horizon. In contrast to its dark, frozen winters, when the region turns into a winter wonderland, and a preferred location to catch the Northern Lights phenomenon, Lapland in summer is a paradise of lakes, forests, and vast skies. 4. Canada's Yukon Territory Yukon has no dearth of natural wonders that come alive under the Midnight Sun. For several weeks during summer, the sun lingers endlessly in the sky, highlighting its majestic mountain ranges, dense forests, and winding rivers. Yukon is in a high-latitude region, close to the Arctic Circle, and the Earth's tilt on its axis causes the sun to remain above the horizon for extended time during the summer. To make the most of this unique phenomenon, the region comes up with unique events like the Midnight Sun Golf Tournament, where golfers tee off at midnight. It's an outdoor-lover's dream, painted in a palette of endless daylight. 5. Sweden Like its Nordic neighbors, Sweden experiences long summer days, especially in its far northern territories. The sun stays high from late May through mid-July, never quite disappearing over the horizon. Sweden makes the most of this by celebrating Midsommar, a beloved national holiday marked by outdoor feasts, dancing around maypoles, and flower crowns. From Lapland's rugged wilderness to the charming towns dotted along shimmering lakes, Sweden under the Midnight Sun is a land of calm, beauty, and quiet joy.
