Is Jaguar Mining (JAG) stock Halal?
Under AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21, a Halal stock keeps non-permissible income below 5% of revenue and interest-bearing debt and investments each below 30% of market capitalisation. Jaguar Mining, Inc. (JAG) passes all four screens as of September 2026, with a dividend purification factor of 97.91%.
Jaguar Mining is a prominent player in the precious metals mining industry, specializing in gold exploration and production. Headquartered in Toronto, Canada, Jaguar Mining operates primarily in Brazil, where it engages in the extraction and processing of gold from rich deposits. The company's core operations are concentrated in the Iron Quadrangle, a prolific mineral region in Brazil known for its extensive gold reserves. Jaguar Mining's primary function is to identify, acquire, and develop mineral properties with substantial gold endowment. For Muslim investors, though, the most pressing question is simpler: is Jaguar Mining a Halal investment?
Is Jaguar Mining Shariah compliant?
Extracting and selling oil, gas or materials is a permissible business, so companies like Jaguar Mining rarely stumble on the activity screen. The pressure point is capital structure: energy is a capital hungry industry that borrows heavily, and AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 caps interest bearing debt at 30% of market capitalisation, a line that moves as commodity cycles move the share price.
Does Jaguar Mining pass the business activity test?
Yes. In the September 2026 screening Jaguar Mining holds an overall PASS, which a stock only earns when its core business clears the activity screen. The activity itself, extracting and selling resources, raises no Shariah objection; the scrutiny belongs to the financing.
Is Jaguar Mining's income Halal?
Yes, within AAOIFI's tolerance. Jaguar Mining's income from non-permissible sources stays below 5% of revenue in the September 2026 screening, and the small impure portion is handled through purification: the factor of 97.91% tells holders of JAG what share of each dividend to keep and what remainder to donate to charity.
Does Jaguar Mining meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?
Yes. Both caps hold this month: interest bearing investments and interest bearing debt each stay below 30% of market capitalisation. Because the caps move with the share price, our Shariah Supervisory Board has JAG re-screened every month, and the result above always shows the latest verdict.
