Amalgamated Kirkland (“AK”) is located adjacent to Agnico Eagle’s Macassa mine complex and is within a few hundred metres of the existing Macassa underground workings, including the South Mine Complex mineralization. Agnico is using new ramp access to incorporate the nearby AK and Near Surface deposits into the Macassa mine plan, providing additional operational flexibility.
Agnico originally planned to begin trucking and processing ore from the AK deposit to the LZ5 processing facility at LaRonde in late 2025. Following completion of modifications to the LZ5 facility, Agnico now expects trucking and processing of AK ore to begin in the second quarter of 2026. Gold production from AK is forecast at approximately 45 koz in 2026, increasing to between 50 koz and 60 koz annually in 2027 and 2028.
In 2025, drilling at Macassa included work on the AK deposit, where Agnico reported increases in Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources from positive drilling results. In 2026, drilling is expected to continue at shallower depths in the AK deposit.
