We are proud to announce the publication of our 2023 Sustainability Report, marking the 15th consecutive year of providing insights into our health, safety, environmental, and social performance. This year’s report, themed "Global Approach, Regional Focus", underscores Agnico Eagle’s unwavering dedication to balance global vision with localized strategies to drive sustainable mining practices.
We are committed to prioritizing the unique needs and challenges of each region where Agnico Eagle operates. Through close collaboration with local communities and Indigenous Peoples, we aim to minimize environmental impact, maximize social benefits, and contribute positively to local economies. This approach ensures that every ounce of gold mined by Agnico Eagle upholds the highest standards of safety, responsibility, and sustainability.
We are pleased to share some of the highlights in this year’s report:
- Achieving a second consecutive record year for safety performance and prioritizing employee mental health and well-being.
- Maintaining our position as one of the lowest greenhouse gas emitters among senior gold producers, as we continue to assess opportunities to implement lower carbon technology, address climate change risks, and support initiatives that contribute to the climate resilience of our neighboring communities.
- Developing a comprehensive action plan to advance reconciliation with Indigenous communities; and expanding and improving our approach to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
- Supporting impactful community projects, including a 10-year CAD $3 million commitment to the Canadian Cancer Society and a multi-year CAD $5 million commitment to the Inunnguiniq project to support initiatives that can have a long-term positive impact in Nunavut.
While we celebrate our successes in 2023, we remain committed to continuous improvement. Looking ahead, we aim to build upon past achievements, learn from challenges, and further embed sustainability into the core of all of Agnico Eagle’s activities. By fostering open dialogue, mutual respect, and shared opportunities, we strive to ensure that we make mining work for all.
