Newmont Announces Monetization of Equity Received Through Successful Divestiture Program

Expected to Generate ~$470 million in Net Proceeds, Reflecting Strong Equity Appreciation

Newmont Remains on Track to Deliver on its 2025 Guidance and Capital Allocation Priorities

Newmont Corporation (NYSE: NEM, TSX: NGT, ASX: NEM, PNGX: NEM) ("Newmont" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has executed agreements for the sale of shares in Greatland Resources Limited ("Greatland") and Discovery Silver Corp ("Discovery") for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $470 million, net of taxes and commissions.

In February 2024, Newmont announced its intent to divest certain high-quality non-core assets, building an unparalleled portfolio of world class gold and copper operations and projects. The monetization of the Greatland and Discovery shares further streamlines Newmont's equity portfolio, while generating cash for the business.

Newmont remains on track to deliver on its 2025 guidance, while continuing to generate strong free cash flow from the Company's world class portfolio of high-quality, long-life assets. With today's announcement, Newmont now expects to generate $3.0 billion in after-tax cash proceeds from its divestiture program in 2025 to support Newmont's capital allocation priorities, which include strengthening our balance sheet and returning capital to shareholders.

Sale of Greatland Shares

Working in conjunction with Greatland, Newmont agreed to divest half of its shares in June 2025. The Greatland shares sold were received as part of the consideration for the divestment of the Telfer operation and Newmont's 70% interest in the Havieron gold-copper project to Greatland in 2024 (the "Telfer-Havieron Transaction"). The sale reflects an approximately 230% return relative to the value announced at the time of the Telfer-Havieron Transaction. Following the sale of the shares, Newmont's remaining equity stake in Greatland is approximately 9.9%.

Sale of Discovery Shares

Working in conjunction with Discovery, Newmont agreed to divest 100% of its shares in May 2025 and July 2025. The Discovery shares sold were received as part of the consideration for the divestment of the Porcupine mine to Discovery in 2025 (the "Porcupine Transaction"). The sales reflect an approximately 200% return relative to the value announced at the time of the Porcupine Transaction. To facilitate the sales, Discovery agreed to waive certain provisions of the Investor Rights Agreement entered into between the parties with respect to the Porcupine Transaction. Following the settlement of the July 2025 sales 1 , Newmont will not be a shareholder of Discovery.

Editor's Picks: Gold Price Breaks US$3,400, Silver Added to Draft US Critical Minerals List

The gold price was on the rise this week, breaking through US$3,400 per ounce once again.

It's been pushed higher by US dollar weakness, as well as Federal Reserve turmoil.

President Donald Trump has been pressuring Fed Chair Jerome Powell to cut interest rates for months, and on Monday (August 25) the situation developed further when Trump posted a letter on his social media platform Truth Social. In it, he said he was removing Lisa Cook from her position on the central bank's board of governors due to allegations of mortgage fraud.

Top 5 Canadian Mining Stocks This Week: Trifecta Shines with 117 Percent Gain

Welcome to the Investing News Network's weekly look at the best-performing Canadian mining stocks on the TSX, TSXV and CSE, starting with a round-up of Canadian and US news impacting the resource sector.

Statistics Canada released its second-quarter gross domestic product (GDP) figures on Friday (August 29). The data showed that the Canadian economy shrank 0.4 percent in the second quarter and declined 1.6 percent on an annualized basis. The decrease comes following first-quarter gains of 0.5 percent and a 2 percent annualized increase.

Much of the decrease was attributed to a 7.5 percent drop in exports compared to Q1. Canadian exports had risen 1.4 percent in the first three months of the year as US companies increased imports to get ahead of incoming tariffs.Excluding the lower costs at the pumps, CPI remained steady at 2.5 percent, the same increase as May and June.

Navigating Uncertainty: How Trump's Tariffs Are Affecting the Gold Market

The gold price has been on the rise in 2025 as a slew of factors work in its favor.

Central bank buying has long been a key point of support, as has escalating conflict in the Middle East and elsewhere. A newer addition is tariff tensions as the Trump administration fleshes out trade policies.

The gold price has benefited from safe-haven demand amid the turmoil, but concerns that the yellow metal itself might face tariffs have also impacted the sector as industry insiders react to uncertainty.
