Overview

Overview

Prior to the Joint Venture, Newmont has been pouring gold in Nevada for over 50 years along a 100-mile corridor in the northern part of the state. On July 1, 2019, Barrick Gold Corporation and Newmont Corporation have successfully concluded the transaction establishing Nevada Gold Mines LLC. Nevada Gold Mines is 61.5% owned and operated by Barrick, and 38.5% owned by Newmont. The assets of Nevada Gold Mines comprise 10 underground and 12 open pit mines, two autoclave facilities, two roasting facilities, four oxide mills, a flotation plant and five heap leach facilities.

Key Facts

Identified synergies are expected to deliver up to $500 million per year over the first five years from 2020, stepping down over time after that. These will come mainly from integrated mine planning, optimized mining and processing, cost reductions and the combination of the adjacent Turquoise Ridge and Twin Creeks, which will be operated as a single mine.

Location History

Fifty years ago on May 4, 1965, Newmont poured our first gold bar from the Carlin Mine in Nevada, marking the beginning of what has become one of the largest and most productive gold mining districts in the world. Newmont Carlin Trend operations have since generated millions of ounces of gold, created thousands of jobs and helped the communities of northern Nevada grow and thrive over the last five decades.

The productivity and longevity of the Carlin Trend has been central to Newmont’s growth and success, both in Nevada and at our operations around the world. This milestone would not be possible without the ingenuity and hard work of our employees, as well as the support of our business partners and the local communities of northern Nevada, many of whom believe that the best of Carlin is yet to come. We look forward to the next fifty years of safe, profitable and responsible gold mining.

Health and Safety

Our goal is to create a culture of zero harm and a workplace free of injuries and occupational illnesses. At our North America operations, we have several programs and tools to help us achieve that goal. Through a focus on employee engagement, vital behaviors, leadership coaching, field interactions, and mitigation of safety and health risks, we will continue our journey towards Integration and Zero Harm.

Nevada-Health

Vital Behaviors

Vital Behaviors is a process that puts ownership into the hands of those with the greatest impact and influence; our front-line employees and encourages their involvement in health and safety. In the Vital Behaviors process, our employees submit stories of personal instances where they demonstrated or observed at-risk behaviors, or intervened when identifying an at-risk behavior. Peer representatives, known as Opinion Leaders, analyze each story to determine common themes. The themes are further analyzed to develop three to four key Vital Behaviors that, when followed, will prevent injury and loss. The Opinion Leaders then work through the process to engage their peers, identifying actions that will both motivate and enable their fellow employees to follow the Vital Behaviors. A total of 10 Vital Behaviors teams exist throughout the region, which includes operations, support and contractor members.

Leadership Coaching

To compliment the success of Vital Behaviors and other employee-led safety efforts, Leadership Coaching was introduced in 2014. Leadership Coaching is a process where skilled coaches accompany supervisors in their work areas to provide real-time feedback in the areas of: visible felt leadership, effective communication, hazard identification, risk management, operational accountability and promotion of vital behaviors. Individual feedback sessions are conducted frequently to monitor the supervisors’ progress against agreed targets. When the leadership coaching is completed it then becomes part of the performance management process and supervisors are rewarded based on how effectively they perform these skills.

Employee-led Safety Programs

We have two employee-led safety programs in Nevada called the Employee Safety Program (ESP) and Talking Safety. Both programs are about employee engagement by identifying hazards in the work place and then management providing support to correct those hazards. These safety improvements are well documented so success of the program is very transparent. The goal of these programs is to encourage employees to make safety their first thought for everything they do, because talking about safety ensures we think about safety.

Safety Interactions

At our mine sites, supervisors and managers focus on conducting frequent Safety Interactions with our employees doing hazardous work. The Safety Interaction is a conversation with an individual on their work activities, the risks associated with that activity and to provide positive feedback or coaching on the “behavior.” The purpose of a Safety Interaction is to positively influence the safety behaviors of our employees over time through leaders having one-on-one conversations on observed work behaviors.

Mine Emergency Response Teams

Each of our Newmont North America mine sites are equipped with an on-site Mine Emergency Response Team (MERT) made up of men and women who are highly skilled professional miners – equipment operators, mechanics, electricians, blasting technician, geologists, engineers, etc. – who bring important work experience to their roles on the team. Members of the MERT teams are trained Emergency Medical Technicians (EMT) and Emergency Medical Responders (EMR). The MERT teams participate in specialized trainings and mock-drills throughout the year. These teams also test their preparedness, skills and speed against industry peers in mine rescue competitions across the country. Mine rescue contests are designed to sharpen skills and test the knowledge of team members who would be called on to respond to a mine emergency. Each contest requires that MERT members solve a hypothetical problem while being timed and observed by judges, who enforce complex requirements.

Community

Newmont’s success in building sustainable operations is based on our company’s value of demonstrating leadership in safety, stewardship of the environment and social responsibility throughout all phases of the mining life-cycle.

Newmont Legacy Fund

The Newmont Legacy Fund, a 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt organization, was formed to create long-term community sustainability across northern Nevada and to ensure that the legacy of our employees and Newmont contributes to the health and wellbeing of future generations. This program provides an opportunity for our employees to support local non-profit organizations of their choice today or to invest in the Newmont Endowment Fund, which will provide community sustainability in the future. Newmont matches each employee’s donations dollar for dollar to increase the local benefit. Since the inception of the Legacy Fund in 2010, we have been able to support more than 225 northern Nevada non-profit organizations with over $12.1 million and have begun to grow the endowment fund by approximately $225,000 per year resulting in a current balance of over $1.3 million. The Newmont Legacy Fund continued successfully through the end of 2019.

Educational Outreach

Newmont supports a number of educational programs throughout the region – from K-12 to college and post-graduate studies. Newmont is committed to increasing educational opportunities, not only in the mining sector, but also in other disciplines critical for the ongoing sustainability of our economy and way of life.

Community Volunteering

Our employees devote countless hours to volunteerism in Nevada communities. Broad-based community volunteer efforts contribute to projects such as clean-up events, parks and recreation construction and more.

Community Investment

At Newmont Mining Corporation, we believe in the importance of investing in the future of our communities. We are committed to the development of meaningful and measurable programs within our communities through volunteer efforts and financial support. Areas of interest that may receive assistance include youth, education, recreation, art, culture and history, environment, health and welfare, underserved populations and civic enhancement. To apply for funding through Newmont’s Community Investment Program, please complete the Community Investment Application and return to community [email protected].

We invite you to visit our Long Canyon, Gold Quarry, Phoenix or Twin Creeks operations for a first-hand look at our innovation, teamwork and modern mining practices. Tours take place in the summer months each Thursday of the month. Contact our community relations team to sign up for your mining experience!

Environment

We take our responsibility for preserving the region’s natural resources very seriously. All of our mines operate under ISO 14001 accredited environmental management systems, and all facilities that use cyanide are certified as compliant with the International Cyanide Management Code. Many of our employees are involved in regional environmental and resource conservation programs.

Compliance and Reporting

All of Newmont’s Nevada sites, facilities and projects are subject to environmental regulations. At each of our operations, Newmont has a staff of environmental professionals and technicians.

Partnerships

In 1993, Newmont, along with the Bureau of Land Management, entered into the Maggie Creek Watershed Restoration Project to focus on improving the riparian areas and stream conditions of Maggie Creek, which flows along SR 227 north of Carlin, Nevada. Partners of the Maggie Creek Watershed Restoration Project include the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Nevada Department of Wildlife, Newmont Mining Corporation, Trout Unlimited, TS Ranch and Maggie Creek Ranch.

Closure and Reclamation

Nevada’s vast wide open spaces are beautiful and we want them to remain so. In keeping with this commitment, we have made reclamation and closure of Newmont properties a critical part of the planning and operation of each mine.

Newmont has received numerous “Excellence in Mine Reclamation Awards” from the Bureau of Land Management in recognition of our active and ongoing commitment to responsible closure and reclamation throughout Nevada.
