Agnico Eagle Mines is poised to challenge Barrick Gold as the world's second-largest gold producer, with plans to reach an output of 3.3 to 3.5 million ounces this year. Amid Barrick's anticipated production decline due to a mining complex shutdown in Mali, Agnico focuses on increasing shareholder value rather than size. The company has grown rapidly through strategic acquisitions and is now Canada's largest mining firm by market capitalization, operating mines across three continents.
