Regardless of how the gold price is doing, the top gold-mining companies are always making moves.
Right now, gold is in the limelight — stimulated by increasing global inflation, geopolitical turmoil and economic uncertainty, the gold price is repeatedly setting new highs in 2026, reaching US$5,589.38 on January 28.
Rising safe-haven demand alongside concerns over gold mine supply have pushed the metal to record highs, and market watchers are eyeing the world's top gold-mining companies to see how they respond to market dynamics.
While the future of the economy remains uncertain, the rising gold price has been a boon to gold-mining companies as it improves their margins after several years of high inflation increasing the costs associated with mining operations.
According to US Geological Survey data, global gold production totaled 3,300 metric tons in 2025. China, Russia and Australia were the top three gold-producing countries last year.
But what were the top gold-mining companies by production in 2025? We dive into the top miners and their biggest gold mines below.
As companies' reporting methods for gold production differ, the Investing News Network has calculated attributable gold production for the top gold-mining companies below using figures from company reports and other official sources to provide investors with the most accurate ranking of global gold production by company.
All production data refers to the calendar year 2025, and is in metric tons and troy ounces unless otherwise noted.
Read on to find out which companies produced the most gold this past year.
1. Newmont (TSX:NGT,NYSE:NEM)
Production: 183.17 metric tons
Newmont is the world’s top gold-mining company by a significant margin. In 2025, the company reported 183.17 metric tons of gold by attributable production.
Newmont has a diverse portfolio of assets, with significant operations in North and South America, Australia and Africa.
Its portfolio includes a 38.5 percent interest in Nevada Gold Mines in Nevada, US, through a joint venture with majority owner Barrick Mining (TSX:ABX,NYSE:B). In 2025, Newmont’s attributable share of gold production from the mine was 999,000 ounces, or 31.07 metric tons.
The company’s next largest operation is its wholly owned Ahafo South complex in Ghana. It consists of three mines: the Subika and Awonsu open pits, and the Subika underground mine. The company’s Ahafo North open pit mine achieved commercial production in late 2025 and is expected to average 275,000 and 325,000 ounces of gold per year. Last year, the assets combined for 734,000 ounces (22.83 metric tons) of gold for Newmont, with the majority from Ahafo South.
In January 2025, Newmont sold its Porcupine complex in Ontario, Canada, to Discovery Silver for total consideration of US$425 million. In 2024, the mine produced 270,000 ounces (8 metric tons) of gold. The sale is part of Newmont’s larger divestiture of US$4.3 billion in non-core assets.
2. Agnico Eagle Mines (TSX:AEM,NYSE:AEM)
Production: 107.23 metric tons
Agnico Eagle Mines produced 107.23 metric tons of gold in 2025, taking second place among the world’s biggest gold producers. It wholly owns its portfolio of 11 mines, with seven in Canada, two in Mexico and one in each of Australia and Finland.
The firm's Detour Lake and Canadian Malartic mines in Canada are some of the world’s biggest gold mines. In 2025, its Detour Lake operation, located in Ontario near the Québec border, produced 692,675 ounces (21.54 metric tons) of gold.
The Canadian Malartic complex in Québec produced 642,612 ounces (19.99 metric tons) in 2025 from a combination of underground and open-pit mining. However, the main open pit was depleted in 2023, and the mine is expected to transition to fully underground operations by 2029.
3. Barrick Mining (TSX:ABX,NYSE:B)
Production: 101.24 metric tons
Barrick Mining produced 101.24 metric tons of attributable gold in 2025, landing it as the third highest gold producer in the world. Like Newmont, Barrick is a global producer with assets on many continents, including gold mines in Africa, North America and South America.
Barrick’s largest operation is its 61.5 percent stake in Nevada Gold Mines alongside Newmont. The US gold complex accounted for 1.59 million ounces, or 49.49 metric tons, of Barrick’s gold production in 2025.
In January 2026, Barrick confirmed it was planning a spin-out of Nevada Gold Mines into its own company, and is preparing for an initial public offering for late 2026.
The company’s second-largest producing asset is typically its 80 percent owned Loulo-Gounkoto gold complex in Mali. However, Barrick's attributable production from the mine came in at just 29,000 ounces in 2025 after a conflict with the Malian government saw Barrick lose control of Loulo-Gounkoto for the majority of the year. Barrick regained control of Loulo-Gounkoto on December 15.
In 2024, Mali's government, run by a military junta since a 2021 coup, accused Barrick of failing to pay its taxes amid changes to royalty rights and mining licenses as part of the new 2023 mining code. It arrested four workers there and issued an arrest warrant for then-CEO Mark Bristow. The government suspended the mine in January 2025, and later placed it under provisional administration.
The issue was finally resolved in November 2025 when Barrick and Mali both agreed to drop charges against each other. Additionally, Barrick said it would sign on the mining code that was at the heart of the dispute, while the government would extend the mining licenses by 10 years.
4. Navoi Mining and Metallurgy Company
Production: 97.98 metric tons
Navoi Mining and Metallurgy Company (NMMC) produced 97.98 metric tons of gold in 2025. NMMC is the largest mining company operating in Uzbekistan, with 12 mines. The company has been in operation since the 1960s, when the country was still part of the Soviet Union.
NMMC’s Muruntau mine, which has been in production since 1969, is one of the world's top two gold-producing mines. While NMMC didn't provide a breakdown of its 2025 production, in 2024 the mine produced an estimated 2.68 million ounces of gold (83.36 metric tons).
The company is working on modernizing its operations and considering a potential public listing.
5. AngloGold Ashanti (NYSE:AU,ASX:AGG)
Production: 96.11 metric tons
AngloGold Ashanti produced 96.11 metric tons of attributable gold in 2025, putting it among the top Africa-based gold-mining companies. The company has a portfolio of nine mining assets spread across seven countries in Africa, South America and Australia, as well as numerous exploration projects around the world.
AngloGold’s largest wholly owned operation is the Geita mine in Northwest Tanzania, which produced 192,000 ounces (15.3 metric tons) of gold in 2025. The property consists of multiple open-pit and underground operations.
The company also owns a 45 percent interest in the Kibali mine located in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The mine is the largest gold operation in Africa, producing 673,330 ounces (19.7 metric tons) in 2025, with 303,000 ounces (9.24 metric tons) attributable to AngloGold. The remaining ownership in the mine is held by Barrick Mining at 45 percent and the DRC government at 10 percent.

Investor Insight
GoldInxs Mining Corp. (TSXV:INXS, OTCQB: INXGF) provides investors with exposure to early-stage gold-copper exploration in British Columbia, leveraging a portfolio of high-potential projects in Tier 1 jurisdictions, within established gold districts, surrounded by strong regional infrastructure and led by an experienced management team committed to accelerating discovery and delivering shareholder value.
Overview
GoldInxs Mining Corp. is a discovery-focused mineral exploration company dedicated to identifying and advancing high-potential copper-gold assets in proven geological belts. The Company's strategy centers on acquiring overlooked and underexplored projects with large-scale potential, applying modern exploration techniques to rapidly evaluate targets and unlock shareholder value through discovery.
The Company’s. common shares started trading on the TSX Venture Exchange in July 2026 under the symbol INXS, positioning itself to capitalize on favorable copper and gold market fundamentals.
Copper demand is forecasted to grow steadily through 2030, with the global copper market expected to expand to over US$340 billion by 2030, driven by electric vehicles, renewable energy and infrastructure growth.
On the other hand, gold continues to provide a safe-haven hedge against policy risks and market volatility, making GoldInxs’ dual focus on copper and gold particularly compelling for investors.
The Company’s portfolio is anchored by two priority projects: the Fishpot Project in central British Columbia, interpreted as an emerging, large epithermal system with strong infrastructure access and jurisdiction quality as well as early indications of blackwater-style mineralization, and the non-core Millar Project in the prolific B.C Golden Triangle, a district renowned for world-class discoveries. While surrounding deposits attracted billions of dollars in investment, Fishpot received only sporadic historical exploration despite widespread hydrothermal alteration and numerous anomalous gold, silver and copper results. Artemis Gold’s Blackwater Mine has announced tripling production with an intended $1.56B investment, which sits only 65 km from the Fishpot property.
Backed by a management team with expertise in exploration, project development and capital markets, GoldInxs is positioned to rapidly advance its assets, deliver near-term exploration catalysts and create shareholder value through discovery and strategic growth.
Company Highlights
- Mining-friendly jurisdiction: Projects are in British Columbia, which ranked second in Canada and 20th globally in the 2025 Fraser Institute investment attractiveness rankings.
- Flagship and district-scale assets: Portfolio is anchored by the flagship Fishpot Project (“Fishpot”) in central B.C., showing strong geological indicators of mineralization, blackwater-style mineralization potential and immense exploration upside potential with only 378 meters of historical drilling. Fishpot is strategically located in the same region as Artemis Gold’s Blackwater Mine and Evolution Mining’s optioned Clisbako property.
- Clear path to 2026 catalysts: GoldInxs secured a drill permit for an upcoming maiden 2,000-metre drill program at Fishpot, near-term exploration programs are designed to define mineralized systems, outline blackwater-style potential and create shareholder value following the completion of a 3D IP survey and drill targeting.
Key Projects
Fishpot Project
The Fishpot Project represents the cornerstone asset within the GoldInxs portfolio. Covering up to 5,500 hectares in Central British Columbia, and located ~95 km north of Quesnel, Fishpot hosts a large hydrothermal alteration system that exhibits many of the geological characteristics observed in major epithermal and intrusion-related gold systems throughout the region. Fishpot encompasses five claim blocks, held under an option to acquire 100 percent subject to a 2 percent NSR, representing a significant exploration opportunity in a highly prospective region.
Fishpot represents a largely untested hydrothermal mineral system where multiple independent exploration datasets, including gold-silver-copper surface geochemistry, alteration and geology, airborne magnetics, 3D IP chargeability/resistivity and identified epithermal-to-potential-porphyry target environments, are converging to define drill targets, despite only 378 metres of historical drilling across two holes.
Fishpot is situated within the highly prospective Stikine Terrane and is underlain by Hazelton Group volcanic rocks and intrusive units comparable to those associated with several significant deposits in British Columbia. Extensive quartz-sericite alteration, hydrothermal brecciation, pyrite mineralization and multi-element geochemical anomalies support the interpretation of a robust mineralizing system. Fishpot is strategically positioned near active and historical mining operations, including Artemis Gold’s Blackwater Deposit, Newton Gold Project, Capoose and 3Ts Project, underscoring its large-scale discovery potential. Importantly, based on early-exploration results, Fishpot shares several regional geological characteristics commonly associated with Blackwater-style gold systems, including felsic volcanics, strong alteration, pyrite-rich mineralization and gold-silver geochemical associations. Despite the similarities the Company cannot yet make any formal connections to the surrounding properties, nor can they guarantee that such deposits exist on their ground.
Fishpot Exploration Technology: GoldInxs advanced its Fishpot targeting program by combining a conventional 3D IP survey with emerging Virtual DRILL™ remote-sensing technology as an additional targeting layer, using multiple geological, geochemical and geophysical datasets to refine and prioritize targets ahead of a planned ~2,000-metre drill program.
Fishpot Drill Permit & Expansion: GoldInxs has received the required drilling permits and expanded Fishpot to 5,509 hectares, positioning the Company to proceed with its inaugural ~2,000-metre modern drill program on a property that has seen very limited historical drilling, while refining targets through integrated geological, geochemical and geophysical data.
Despite multiple encouraging exploration indicators, Fishpot has been subjected to only two historic drill holes totaling 378 metres, leaving the broader mineral system largely untested and providing significant leverage to future exploration success.
Recent exploration completed by GoldInxs generated the highest reported gold value on Fishpot to date, returning up to 5.65 g/t Au from surface sampling, while airborne geophysical surveys identified multiple coincident magnetic and geochemical anomalies that have strengthened the Company's exploration model and target pipeline.
The 2025 program returned rock samples of up to 5.65 g/t Au, 11.35 g/t Ag and 0.42% Cu, while historical work reportedly returned up to 4.36 g/t Au and 3.2% Cu.
The property exhibits the potential low-sulphidation epithermal targets at Fishpot North, intermediate-sulphidation signatures at Fishpot East, and a large central magnetic high being evaluated for potential porphyry mineralization at depth. The Company is focused on finalizing drill targeting and preparing for the inaugural diamond drill campaign at Fishpot in the coming months following completion of the IP survey. GoldInxs is preparing to drill-test a 5,509-hectare, largely undrilled hydrothermal system in central British Columbia where high-grade surface gold-silver-copper results, Blackwater-style geological characteristics and multiple coincident geophysical targets have converged to define a portfolio of high-priority exploration targets.
