12.   SEGMENTED INFORMATION

  • Agnico Eagle operates in a single industry, namely exploration for and production of gold. The Company's primary operations are in Canada, Mexico and Finland. The Company identifies its reportable segments as those operations whose operating results are reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer and that represent more than 10% of the combined revenue, profit or loss or total assets of all operating segments. Each of the Company's significant operating mines and projects are considered to be separate segments. Certain operating segments that do not meet the quantitative thresholds are still disclosed when the Company believes that the information is useful. Segment results for the first quarter of 2013 have been retrospectively revised to reflect organizational changes in 2013 that created three business units consisting of the Northern Business unit, the Southern Business unit, and the Exploration business unit. However, under this revised organizational structure the Chief Executive Officer also reviews segment income (defined as revenues from mining operations less production costs, exploration and corporate development and impairment losses) on a mine-by-mine basis. The following are the Company's reportable segments organized according to their relationship with the Company's three business units and reflect how the Company manages its business and how it classifies its operations for planning and measuring performance:

 

Northern Business:

  LaRonde mine, Lapa mine, Goldex mine, Meadowbank mine, Meliadine project and Kittila mine
 

Southern Business:

  Pinos Altos mine, Creston Mascota deposit at Pinos Altos and La India mine
 

Exploration:

  United States Exploration office, Europe Exploration office, Canada Exploration offices and Latin America Exploration office
  • The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the December 31, 2013 audited annual consolidated financial statements. There are no transactions between the reportable segments affecting revenue. Production costs for the reportable segments are net of intercompany transactions.

    Corporate and other (including the Urastar property) assets and specific income and expense items are set out separately below.

    The Goldex mine's M and E Zones achieved commercial production on October 1, 2013. The La India mine achieved commercial production on February 1, 2014.
