NUUK, Greenland, March 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lumina Strategic Minerals Group was featured as a primary mine operator in Greenland at the annual PDAC convention (Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada) which took place in Toronto March 1-4. A record number of industry leaders, government representatives, investors, companies and Indigenous communities gathered to discuss new projects, partnerships, and developments in the sector, making it the highest attendance in the event\u2019s 94-year history.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lumina Group CEO Martin Hannes presented to a standing-room only crowd, illuminating the company\u2019s success in surmounting the hurdles associated with mining in Greenland, the growing global demand for strategic minerals, and Lumina\u2019s long-term production strategy. Lumina is the largest operating mine in Greenland and was featured on PDAC\u2019s \u201cGreenland Day,\u201d a day co-hosted by the Government of Greenland and the Greenland Business Association. Lumina has been working in Greenland since 2012 and began operating the White Mountain Mine in 2019. Located 300km north of the capital Nuuk, Lumina is the major mining company in Greenland. It is the only mine operating at full capacity \u2013 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lumina is a complete mining operation currently producing hundreds of thousands of tons of strategic minerals per year. With on-site storage facilities that can handle up to 50,000 tons of finished product, Lumina also has its own dock facilities to accommodate vessels up to 35,000 tons or more, and currently exports direct to customers around the world. The mine produces the world\u2019s highest quality Greenland Anorthosite. This bright white mineral is closest to that found on the surface of the moon, and Lumina is currently active with NASA and the European Space Agency on many research and development projects. Mr. Hannes noted that to date, Lumina has invested over 100 million dollars into the mine.<\/p>\n

Throughout the conference, Mr. Hannes, along with Chairman of the Board, Lumina Group Jamie Kierman, Lumina Greenland Managing Director Bent Omsvig Jensen, and Senior VP Lumina North America, Marcos Pineda, met with Greenlandic Ministers and politicians, as well as a wide range of international stakeholders including industrial partners, mining companies, and investment groups.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a result of increasing demand worldwide, Lumina will be more than doubling output from our mine in the next 12 months. We are confident this is start of Lumina\u2019s continued expansion and production,\u201d says Mr. Hannes.<\/p>\n

Mr. Kiernan noted, \u201cThe outstanding attendance at this year\u2019s PDAC reverberated through the enthusiasm of both the prospectors and developers, as well as the many countries that were involved. It was quite amazing, as it went from core commodities to rare earths to opportunities to fulfill demands around the world. The governments of Greenland, Denmark, Japan and the U.S. were all looking for opportunities for public-private partnerships amongst all the participants.\u201d<\/p>\n
