Agnico Eagle is able to reallocate funds to further its internal growth pipeline, which includes the Odyssey underground extension at Canadian Malartic in Quebec, the Hope Bay project in Nunavut, and work at the Fosterville mine in Australia, thanks to the sale of its half-billion dollar Orla ownership. Furthermore, it will give the business flexibility for additional strategic opportunities.
Speaking about the deal, Agnico Eagle CEO Ammar Al-Joundi stated that the moment is perfect to monetise the investment because of the state of the gold market and Orla's standing as a reputable producer of intermediate gold. He noted that it also shows the company's dedication to prudent capital allocation.
