The widespread implications of the deal will not only benefit Canada Nickel and Agnico Eagle in the near-term, but it will also have long-term implications. The union of the two firms bolsters both operations and opportunities to discover new mineral reserves and increase production. In addition, it further solidifies nickel and cobalt’s importance in global commodity markets. Agnico Eagle’s CEO, Sean Boyd, expressed his enthusiasm for the deal. He stated, “This is an exciting time to be involved in the nickel-cobalt sector, and I welcome this opportunity to be part of Canada nickel’s exciting Crawford project.
