President & CEO, Agnico Eagle Mines

Search every verified Ammar Al-joundi interview, podcast appearance, and on-the-record quote — each transcript cross-checked by AI and human review to confirm speaker identity. Ammar Al-Joundi, President and CEO of Agnico Eagle Mines, discussed the company's growth plans and views on the gold market in several recent media appearances. In a September 2026 interview with Kitco Mining, he said Agnico Eagle expects to add between 1.3 million and 1.5 million ounces of annual production over the next five to ten years, largely from existing assets such as Detour Lake, Canadian Malartic, Hope Bay, and Upper Beaver, which he said could lift production by roughly 20% to 30%. He also noted the company had strengthened its balance sheet over the prior 18 months, reducing debt and building cash, and had returned approximately $1 billion to shareholders in the first half of the year. Regarding an agreement with B2Gold, he described it as an information-sharing arrangement. In an October 2026 appearance on CNBC's Mad Money, Al-Joundi said gold had risen from about $250 an ounce in 2000 to roughly $4,200, attributing the increase to factors such as government money printing and central bank buying. He also said that for investors constructive on gold, buying an equity like Agnico Eagle could offer more upside than an ETF because the amount of gold owned per share had increased over the past 20 years. In a September 2026 interview with In the Money, he said Agnico Eagle has historically prioritized operating in safe jurisdictions, citing founder Paul Penna's view that a mine cannot be moved if government policy changes. He also said the company had been unable to get officials from the previous Canadian government to attend mine openings despite making multi-billion-dollar investments, and expressed a more favorable view of the current government's approach to resource projects.
