Millennia Minerals Featured in Asia CEO Founders Magazine: Showcasing a New Era of Ethical Mining

Millennia Minerals PLC is proud to be featured in the latest edition of Asia CEO Founder Magazine, highlighting the vision, leadership, and global ambitions of Executive Chairman Cyril D’Silva as the Company advances toward its planned London Stock Exchange listing in 2026.

The feature outlines Millennia Minerals’ journey from its origins as Millenium Kapital to a rapidly growing international mining group with assets across Sierra Leone, Australia and expanding opportunities in Guinea, Colombia and Malaysia. It reinforces the Company’s position as a forward-thinking organisation redefining how mining is conducted in emerging markets.

At the core of Millennia Minerals’ strategy is a powerful and differentiated vision: to bring full transparency and ethical accountability to the global diamond industry. Through the introduction of blockchain traceability, the Company is building a complete mine to market chain of custody, ensuring every diamond can be verified, authenticated, and ethically sourced.

This approach is particularly significant in the Zimmi region of Sierra Leone, home to the ultra-rare Zimmi Canary Yellow Diamonds, among the most sought-after coloured diamonds in the world. With polished stones commanding premium values globally, Millennia Minerals is uniquely positioned to transform these rare resources into a trusted, branded luxury product backed by provenance and integrity.

The article also highlights the Company’s growing footprint in Sierra Leone and Guinea, where Millennia has established strong relationships with governments and local communities. By prioritising partnership over extraction, the Company has created a sustainable operating model that balances commercial success with meaningful social impact.

Executive Chairman Cyril D’Silva commented: 

“Millennia Minerals was built on a simple principle: that mining can and should be done differently. By putting people first and ensuring transparency at every step, we are not only unlocking value from world-class assets, but also building a business that stands for integrity, trust, and long-term impact.”

The feature further reinforces Millennia Minerals’ long-term vision: to create a mining ecosystem where governments, communities, and shareholders all benefit together. This philosophy underpins the Company’s continued growth strategy and has already been recognised with the 2025 IBR ASEAN Award for Corporate Excellence in Ethical Mining.

As the Company progresses toward its IPO, the message to investors is clear. Millennia Minerals represents a rare opportunity to participate in a business that combines high value natural resources, proven leadership, and a globally relevant ethical mining model.

With expanding tenements, strategic partnerships, and increasing international recognition, Millennia Minerals continues to position itself at the forefront of a new generation of mining companies, where profitability and responsibility go hand in hand.
