Agnico Eagle Mines is bumping up its investment in Collective Mining, securing exposure to an early-stage gold-exploration project in Colombia.
The Toronto gold producer said Monday it agreed to subscribe for about 4.7 million Collective Mining shares in a private placement for a total of 52.2 million Canadian dollars ($36.3 million), while also exercising warrants it holds to buy about another 2.3 million shares for C$11.3 million.
The move will lift Agnico Eagle's interest in Collective Mining to just shy of 15%, or 12.7 million shares. It currently holds 5.7 million shares, plus 2.3 million warrants.
Agnico Eagle, which continues to focus on a portfolio of its own growth projects, said it also seeks to complement its pipeline by acquiring strategic toehold positions in projects with strong geological potential.
