Newmont and TSM

Three of Newmont’s Canadian operating sites, as well as the North America Regional Office in Vancouver actively participate in TSM. Our Canadian operating sites currently participating in TSM include Musselwhite and Porcupine in Ontario, as well as Éléonore in Quebec. The Brucejack and Red Chris mines in British Columbia were added to our portfolio in late 2023. Newmont is assessing its approach for bringing these mines into the TSM program.

In 2023, Newmont participated in TSM Post-Verification Reviews for 2022 results. As part of this process Newmont drafted a Post-Verification Review paper providing a sustainability overview of Newmont’s Canadian operations. Following the submission of the paper, Newmont representatives were required to present and answer questions before a TSM Post-Verification Review panel of experts in Calgary, Alberta.

Newmont had strong results across all TSM protocols in 2023. Areas of strength included Biodiversity and Conservation Management where all sites maintain a AAA status for all indicators and Safety & Health and Water Stewardship where all sites maintain an A status or higher. Providing value and benefit to the host-communities we operate within is central for Newmont and we continue to score well in the area of Indigenous and Community Relationships. Tailings management and our responsibilities around long-term risk is a top priority for Newmont and we were proud to score AAA ratings for all Tailings Management indicators at the Porcupine operation, where there has been mining activity for over 100 years.

Newmont strives to continually improve its TSM performance. We are pleased to have improved our Crisis Management and Communications Planning protocols over the past several years with all indicators now being sufficiently met. The TSM Climate Change indicators are an area of improvement, partially due to the challenges of operating rural and remote mines. However, Newmont is proud to be demonstrating its commitment to electrification with a recent ground-breaking $100m investment into a partnership with Caterpillar to develop and deliver a fully connected, automated, zero carbon emitting, end-to-end mining system.
