Zijin Mining stock was at EUR 3.62 at Lang & Schwarz on October 16, 2026 at 10:17 a.m. CEST. The company's Bisha copper-zinc mine in Eritrea suspended ore processing after a regional fuel shortage, as Shanghai Metals Market reported on October 16, 2026.

Three dates frame the story

On August 21, 2026, Zijin Mining reported first-half revenue of RMB 194.18 billion and net profit attributable to shareholders of RMB 39.17 billion, according to iNEWS. On September 29, 2026, the company extended the deadline for its Chifeng Gold acquisition to November 30, 2026, as Shanghai Metals Market reported. On October 16, 2026, Bisha processing was suspended; the mine produced 23,000 tonnes of copper and 83,000 tonnes of zinc in 2025, according to Shanghai Metals Market.

What does Bisha mean for output?

The immediate issue is operational timing rather than a disclosed change to the mine's ownership. Fuel supplies had stabilized, but customers faced possible shipment delays while maintenance was brought forward from later in 2026, according to Shanghai Metals Market. The 2025 output base of 23,000 tonnes of copper and 83,000 tonnes of zinc shows why the restart timing matters for the group's production profile.

Two reporting dates are next

A board meeting is scheduled for October 23, 2026 to consider the nine-month results, according to Futunn. A financial calendar listing cited by Finanzen.ch placed the publication of the quarter ending September 30, 2026 on October 24, 2026.

Stock price and investor context

The first-half figures provide a strong operating backdrop, while the Bisha interruption adds a specific execution risk before the nine-month report. Zijin Mining stock was trading at EUR 3.62 at Lang & Schwarz on October 16, 2026 at 10:17 a.m. CEST.
