ITEM 8.01. OTHER EVENTS.

Following its announcement earlier this week that copper concentrate production at Batu Hijau was halted, PT Newmont Nusa Tenggara (“PTNNT”) today announced it officially notified the Government of Indonesia and employees that it is invoking the force majeure clause of its Contract of Work due to ongoing export restrictions. PTNNT continues discussions with the Government to seek a resolution of the export issues. 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 that PTNNT is unable to export by the end of June, it will impact Newmont’s ability to achieve its copper outlook. As a result, investors are cautioned not to rely on such 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.
