Newmont Mining Corporation Research Report

On June 12, 2013, Newmont Mining Corporation (Newmont) announced its plans to reduce its workforce in Colorado by at least 33% over the next 90 days.

The new operating model is expected to shift greater accountability for production and profitability to the Company's operational teams, and make its corporate team focus on strategy and governance. "Ongoing price volatility and steadily rising costs create intense pressure for Newmont to continuously improve its efficiency and effectiveness," said Gary Goldberg, President and CEO of Newmont. "We face some very difficult decisions in streamlining our organization and are committed to treating people fairly throughout this process."

Kinross Gold Corporation Research Report

On June 10, 2013, Kinross Gold Corporation (Kinross) announced that it will not proceed with further development of the Fruta del Norte (FDN) project in Ecuador. Kinross has already informed the Government of Ecuador about its decision, and requested the government's cooperation in ensuring an orderly transition that respects the interests of both parties. Despite pending legislative amendments to the mining and tax law regime in Ecuador, Kinross has decided that it is not in the interests of the Company and its shareholders to invest further in developing FDN, mainly because of its disagreements with the Government of Ecuador on certain key economic and legal terms. The Company reported that its decision to stop the development of FDN will result in a charge of approximately $720 million in Q2 2013.
