Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd.

Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (AEM) is a Canadian mining company that’s focused primarily on gold. It’s the third-largest gold producer in the world, with operations not only in Canada, but also in Australia, Finland and Mexico. For fiscal year 2025, Agnico Eagle Mines expects total gold production between 3.3 million ounces and 3.5 million ounces.

Next week, we’ll have a better picture of whether Agnico Eagle Mines is still on track to achieve this guidance this year. The company is scheduled to announce second-quarter operational and financial results on Wednesday afternoon.
