Jaguar Mining Inc. is a Canadian gold producer and explorer focused on developing and operating assets in Brazil’s Iron Quadrangle region of the state of Minas Gerais. The company’s principal activities include underground and open pit gold mining, mineral exploration, and the development of infrastructure to support sustainable production. Jaguar Mining holds a diversified portfolio of projects that span various stages of exploration and production, enabling the company to maintain a pipeline of growth opportunities.
The company currently operates a number of producing mines, including the Turmalina, Caeté and Paciência complexes, which collectively yield several hundred thousand ounces of gold per annum when operating at full capacity. In addition to its operating mines, Jaguar Mining manages a series of development and exploration projects such as the Roça Grande and Gurupi properties, where ongoing drilling programs aim to expand established resources. The company also invests in exploration licenses covering prospective greenfield targets.
Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Jaguar Mining has grown through targeted acquisitions and strategic partnerships. Early-stage exploration success in the Iron Quadrangle—one of Brazil’s most prolific gold-producing districts—laid the groundwork for the company’s subsequent development of profitable mining operations. Jaguar’s commitment to local community engagement and environmental stewardship has been integral to its sustained presence in the region.
Under the leadership of President and Chief Executive Officer Ian Cockerill, who joined the company in 2019, Jaguar Mining has pursued initiatives to optimize production efficiency and strengthen its balance sheet. The senior management team brings extensive experience in underground mining, process engineering and corporate governance, positioning Jaguar Mining to advance its long-term strategy of resource conversion and operational excellence.
