The high-grade Meliadine gold project is one of Agnico Eagle’s largest gold projects in terms of resources. The project has 2.8 million ounces of gold in proven and probable reserves* (12.0 million tonnes at 7.4 g/t) and a large mineral resource. The reserves are mainly in the Tiriganiaq deposit, and the resources are in Tiriganiaq plus another five nearby deposits within a large land package that is nearly 80 kilometres long. The property is located near the western shore of Hudson Bay in the Kivalliq region of Nunavut, about 25 kilometres north of the hamlet of Rankin Inlet and 290 kilometres southeast of our Meadowbank mine. The land is mainly covered by glacial overburden, and there is deep-seated permafrost. The closest major city is Winnipeg, Manitoba, about 1,500 kilometres to the south. - See more at: www.agnicoeagle.com/en/Exploration/Advanced-Projects/Me...
