BW: REGIONAL SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT, NORTH AMERICA, AND DG: GENERAL MANAGER, ÉLÉONORE MINE, NEWMONT
"We made improvements across our North America portfolio, achieving 28% higher gold production overall in the region – a success story that Newmont hopes to continue building on as we solidify our position in Canada with the acquisition of Newcrest."
"Expediting the permitting process would help dramatically. Today, lots of projects are expansions or smaller projects, which take less time to bring to production through the permitting process."
GENERAL MANAGER - SOUTH AMERICA, HOFMANN ENGINEERING
"We have an ambitious plan to achieve significant milestones this year in our Chilean operation; expand the workshop and commission our new state of the art machinery, enabling us to manufacture HPGRs and other critical components locally in Chile."

"When compared to other Grupo Mexico operations in Peru and Mexico, Asarco in US has been affected by cost implications stemming from labor availability concerns."
"We have a hovercraft that moves on top of the tailings, allowing us to reduce the tailings ponds and evaporation. This is critical for us because our main bottleneck in terms of production today is water availability."
"Québec's road network offers more access to mining sites than in Nunavut. However, employees would be discouraged if they had to commute to the mine by road. Québec's aviation industry is therefore vital, allowing mines to use fly-in and fly-out services to support their operations and attract new talent."
