ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS.

Following its May announcement, PT Newmont Nusa Tenggara (“PTNNT”), which operates the Batu Hijau copper and gold mine in Indonesia, announced today that copper concentrate storage facilities at Batu Hijau are now full without having received an export permit, forcing the operation to halt concentrate milling and processing activities. A copy of PTNNT’s news release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.

Investors are cautioned that Newmont Mining Corporation’s (“Newmont”) 2014-2016 copper outlook, issued on April 24, 2014, assumed the continuation of Batu Hijau operations, timely receipt of export approvals and other factors. To the extent there are continued delays in obtaining approvals, it may impact Newmont’s ability to achieve its copper outlook.

The information disclosed under this Item 8.01, including Exhibit 99.1 hereto, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing made under the Securities Act of 1933, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
