The Goldex Complex is the easternmost part of the chain of operations and properties that Agnico Eagle owns in the Abitibi region of northwestern Quebec and northern Ontario.
Goldex Complex includes the Goldex mine for which the underground mining and processing in the mill started in September 2013. Goldex have mined more than a million ounces since this time. Located less than 30 km, the Akasaba West open-pit mine, who started its commercial production in February 2024, is also part of the Goldex Complex.
Innovation has an important place at Goldex. An automated conveyor system, Rail-Veyor, is used for ore handling. It helps reduce trucks’ utilization, costs, GHG emissions, and health and safety risks.
Akasaba West will use the Goldex mine mill and both operations contribute to rehabilitating Manitou, a tailing site formerly used by an unrelated third party and abandoned to the Quebec government. Goldex Complex distinguishes by its engagement toward health, safety and wellness of its 700 employees and contractors.
