What IAMGOLD does

Canadian gold mining company operating the new Cote Gold mine in Ontario and the Essakane mine in Burkina Faso.

Same company as the NYSE-listed shares. Sells gold it mines at the market price, so output and unit costs decide results. Cote Gold in Ontario, developed with Sumitomo Metal Mining as a minority partner, moved the center of the business away from West Africa, where the Burkina Faso government holds a share of the Essakane mine.

In one line: A mid-tier Canadian gold producer transitioning to a lower-risk jurisdiction mix.
