YouTube channel interview: Mike Cinnamond, president, CEO and director of B2Gold

B2Gold entered 2026 with a broader operating platform and a major new Canadian base. The company’s Goose mine in Nunavut achieved first gold production in June 2025 and declared commercial production in October 2025, while the Back River Gold District gives B2Gold a long-term growth platform in Canada. In Colombia, the company is also advancing Gramalote after announcing positive feasibility study results in July 2025.
