Newmont and Towards Sustainable Mining (TSM)
All of Newmont’s three Canadian operating sites, as well as the North America Regional Office in Vancouver actively participate in TSM. Our Canadian operating sites include Musselwhite and Porcupine in Ontario, as well as Éléonore in Quebec.
Newmont had encouraging results across all seven TSM protocols in 2019. Areas of strength included the Safety and Health Protocol and Aboriginal and Community Outreach Protocol where all of Newmont’s Canadian sites received an ‘A’ ranking or higher.
Areas for improvement include the Tailings Management Protocol at Éléonore, Biodiversity Conservation Management at Porcupine, Energy and GHG Emissions Protocol at Éléonore and Porcupine and Crisis Management and Communications Planning Protocol at Musselwhite and Porcupine. Newmont continues to strive to improve its level of performance along TSM.
In 2021, Éléonore will undergo its second external verification process to review its 2020 TSM results, followed by Musselwhite and Porcupine in 2022.
