Zijin Mining stock (ISIN CNE100000502) was trading at EUR 3.58 at Lang & Schwarz on September 29, 2026, at 2:05 p.m. CEST, while first-half net profit attributable to shareholders reached CNY 39.17 billion, up 68.17 percent year over year. The immediate corporate development is a September 28 agreement extending the deadline for Zijin's Chifeng Gold transaction.

Interim revenue rises 15.78 percent

According to Futubull on September 25, 2026, Zijin Mining reported CNY 194.18 billion in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of 15.78 percent from the same period a year earlier. Recurring net profit attributable to shareholders rose 75.89 percent to CNY 38.03 billion.

Operating cash flow increased 92.00 percent to CNY 55.50 billion in the same interim period, giving the earnings growth a stronger cash conversion profile. The report also put the debt-to-asset ratio at 49.55 percent, below 50 percent for the first time since 2012.

Gold and lithium reshape output

The production mix explains why the profit comparison is stronger than revenue growth. Mined gold output rose 13.00 percent year over year to 47 tonnes, while lithium carbonate equivalent production climbed 496.00 percent to 43,596 tonnes, according to Futubull.

Copper was the counterweight. Mined copper production fell 5.70 percent to 534,407 tonnes in the first half, although output excluding the Kamoa operation increased 4.80 percent, highlighting the effect of asset-level disruptions on the group total.

Chifeng deadline moves to November

According to Futubull on September 28, 2026, the parties extended the deadline for conditions linked to the acquisition of a controlling stake in Chifeng Gold and the related H-share private placement to November 30, 2026. The terms remain unchanged, while completion depends on the outstanding conditions.

The listing structure is also relevant for German investors: Zijin Mining states that its shares trade on HKEX under 2899 and on the Shanghai Stock Exchange under 601899.
