Newmont's go-forward portfolio is the new standard for gold and copper mining," said Tom Palmer, Newmont's President and Chief Executive Officer, as quoted in a statement. This portfolio provides our shareholders with exposure to the highest concentration of Tier 1 assets in the sector, each with the scale and mine life to generate strong free cash flows, and all located in the world's most favorable mining jurisdictions.”
