Aurion Resources Ltd. is a Canadian exploration company headquartered in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada. The company's core business strategy involves generating or acquiring early-stage precious metals exploration opportunities and advancing them through direct exploration or strategic joint venture arrangements.

Aurion Resources primarily focuses on mineral properties in Finland, where its flagship projects, including the Risti and Launi projects, are located within the Central Lapland Greenstone Belt. The company explores for a range of valuable minerals, including precious metals, gold, iron, vanadium, lithium, phosphate, rare earth elements, and base metals deposits. Aurion has also engaged in joint venture partnerships with other mining entities such as B2Gold Corp., Kinross Gold Corporation, and KoBold Metals Company.

In a significant recent development, Aurion Resources Ltd. was acquired by Agnico Eagle Mines Limited. The acquisition, valued at approximately C$481 million with shareholders receiving C$2.60 per share, was completed around June 15, 2026, following shareholder and court approvals. As a result, Aurion Resources Ltd. now operates as a subsidiary of Agnico Eagle Mines Limited, a move that consolidates Agnico Eagle's presence and enhances its exploration pipeline in the Central Lapland Greenstone Belt of Finland.
