Newmont Corporation announced that it has reached a profit-sharing agreement with its represented workforce at the Company’s Peñasquito mine in Zacatecas, Mexico. The agreement supports the continued operation of Peñasquito into the future.

The world’s leading gold company said consistent with other agreements across Mexico, Newmont Peñasquito will pay its represented workforce an uncapped profit-sharing bonus up to 10%, with an immediate cost equivalent of $70 million, which is representative of the payments related to 2021 results.
