Gold is at record highs, mining companies are generating billions in free cash flow, and the world is scrambling for critical metals. But the real story? The Arctic.
In an interview with Jeremy Szafron, Anchor at Kitco News, Agnico Eagle Chairman Sean Boyd reveals why now is the time to unlock the North’s untapped mineral wealth. With gold surging close to $3,000/oz, geopolitical tensions rising, and global supply chains under pressure, Boyd explains how Canada and the U.S. are positioning themselves in a new resource race—one that could reshape the global economy.
Boyd doesn’t hold back, discussing the government’s role, strategic infrastructure investments, and the future of gold and critical metals. This is a must-watch for investors, miners, and anyone tracking the real forces behind the next commodities boom.
Key Topics:
- Is the Arctic the next gold rush?
- Why are mining costs dropping while profits soar?
- What’s driving the physical gold exodus from Europe to the U.S.?
- Could repatriation signal deeper financial instability?
- How will tariffs and geopolitics shape the mining industry?
- Why Canada and the U.S. must act fast on critical metals
