Managing for Sustainability Managing for Sustainability
Beginning with geologic exploration, our success is tied to our ability to develop, operate and close mines in a manner that provides long-term value. Long-term value has evolved into a broad set of concepts that are now referred to as sustainable development or sustainability. Throughout this report, the terms are used interchangeably.

By maintaining high standards for protecting human health and the environment, and working in cooperation with our host communities and governments, we endeavor to create sustainable, long-term economic and social opportunities.

In this section, we provide an overview of our approach to managing for sustainability. This section also provides an overview of Newmont, including our operating locations, policies and programs. We share examples drawn from our activities around the globe that are the real manifestation of our drive toward sustainable development.
