• Opportunities to accelerate growth: When asked about accelerating growth (1-415) 315-6766

across the portfolio, CFO Jamie Porter pointed to recent drill results at Detour bill.peterson@jpmchase.com

Lake’s West Extension zone (link). FID is planned for 2027, with blending of Rock Hoffman

higher-grade U/G ore potentially as soon as 2028, coupled with mill (1-212) 259-5055

optimization to 29Mtpa from 28Mtpa today to drive the complex towards rock.hoffman@jpmchase.com

1Moz annual production by 2030. However, Porter flagged the mill is J.P. Morgan Securities LLC

permitted for up to 32.8Mtpa, which could drive production closer to 1.1-

1.2Mtpa. We also sense potential opportunities to accelerate growth at

AEM, AEM US

at Wasamac and Marban as part of its ‘Fill the Mill’ strategy, with a detailed Neutral
