A scavenger hunt for a €20,000 ($32,428.20) gold bar is set to take place beneath the midnight sun in Finland, with participants solving clues and following leads to ultimately be the first to find the hidden gold.
Beginning 18 June 2026, the Midnight Sun Hunt is set to lead travelers to Levi, Finland, across its trails, landmarks, and local services, highlighting the destination as a key part of the experience. The final clue will be published on 22 August 2026.
The Midnight Sun Hunt is organised by Agnico Eagle Finland (TSX:AEM) and the Levi Ski Resort. It aims to highlight the collaboration between the mining industry and other businesses in developing the Levi community as a year-round destination, as well as showcase the experience of the Arctic summer.
Agnico Eagle recently announced a broad consolidation of its properties in Finland’s Central Lapland Greenstone Belt (CLGB) to create a multi-asset regional platform with the benefit of additional regional acquisitions.
Acquisitions announced in April 2026 have brought the company’s total regional land package to 2,492km2.
The company’s Kittilä mine achieved production in 2009, expanding to a 2-million-tonne-per-annum operation in 2020.
