02.02.2021  |  Business Wire
TMAC Resources Inc. (TSX: TMR) ("TMAC" or the "Company") is pleased to announce today that it has concluded the previously announced plan of arrangement (the "Transaction") pursuant to which Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. ("Agnico Eagle") has acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company (the "Common Shares"). TMAC is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Agnico Eagle.

As a result of the Transaction, the Common Shares are expected to be delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange after the close of trading on February 3, 2021 and Agnico Eagle will apply to the relevant securities commissions for the Company to cease to be a reporting issuer under Canadian securities laws.

Jason Neal, the former President and Chief Executive Officer of TMAC, stated, "I would like to thank the TMAC employees and contractors for their hard work and dedication in 2020 as we worked through the uncertainties of the sale of TMAC, while concurrently improving our safety performance and productivity. Agnico Eagle is one of the strongest gold producers internationally, a Canadian champion and has been operating in Nunavut for more than a decade with a great track record with communities, employees, and the environment. I am very pleased to welcome Agnico Eagle to Hope Bay and the Kitikmeot region."

Dominique Girard, Agnico Eagle's Senior Vice-President Operations, Canada and Europe, stated, "We are very pleased to welcome TMAC and the Hope Bay team to the Agnico Eagle family. The transition process has already begun, and we look forward to building on the successes achieved by TMAC in the Kitikmeot region of Nunavut, creating a great place to work and contributing positively to the communities."

ABOUT TMAC RESOURCES INC.

TMAC operates the Hope Bay property located in Nunavut, Canada. The property and operations are remote but not isolated, serviced by both a port and airstrip. Hope Bay is an 80 km by 20 km Archean greenstone belt that has been explored by BHP, Miramar, Newmont and TMAC over a period spanning more than 30 years. In that time, more than $1.5 billion of expenditures have been spent in exploration and evaluation, surface infrastructure, and mine and process plant development. TMAC began producing gold in early 2017 from Doris, its first mine at Hope Bay, and processed gold at the Doris processing plant which originally had nameplate capacity of 1,000 tpd and expanded to 2,000 tpd midway through 2018. There is potential to grow TMAC's established deposits considerably at depth, and then grow resources further through the prioritized exploration of the more than 90 other identified regional targets. TMAC is now permitted to produce from both Madrid and Boston.
