2024 GML - 1 oz. 99.99% Pure Gold (Single Source – Agnico Eagle Detour Lake Mine) (Bullion)​

In 2022, the Royal Canadian Mint introduced a 1 oz. 99.99% pure gold Single Sourced Gold Maple Leaf bullion coin in response to market demand for greater transparency in the origin of precious metals. Now, in 2024, the Mint issues a third bullion coin composed entirely of gold originating from a single Canadian source - this time, the Detour Lake mine in Northeastern Ontario, 100% owned by Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (Agnico Eagle).
Founded in 1957, Agnico Eagle is a Canadian senior gold mining company committed to building and operating a growing, high-quality, and sustainable business. It is the largest producer of gold in Canada and the third-largest gold producer in the world. Located within the northernmost Abitibi Greenstone Belt, Detour Lake is the largest gold-producing mine in Canada, with gold reserves of 19.9 million ounces.

This third bullion coin combines responsibly mined gold from Agnico Eagle’s Detour Lake mine with the exceptional reputation of the Gold Maple Leaf (GML) bullion brand, trusted worldwide as the purest and most secure bullion coin on today's market. On the coin's reverse, the globe-cradling hand is the mark of integrity - it indicates the gold is responsibly produced and traceable, and that its expertly refined 99.99% purity was achieved following a rigorous segregation protocol.
