Porcupine Mines
Located within Treaty 9 territory in Northeastern Ontario, the historic Porcupine district has produced more than 67 million ounces of gold since 1910.
Newmont’s Porcupine operations cover an area of more than 100 square kilometres and include the Hoyle Pond underground mine, Hollinger open pit mine and Dome processing facility in Timmins, as well as the Borden underground mine in Chapleau.

Newmont has agreements with the First Nations that host and surround the Porcupine Operations. The Timmins Resource Development Agreement was signed in 2014 with Mattagami First Nation, Apitipi Anicinapek Nation (formerly Wahgoshig First Nation), Matachewan First Nation, and Flying Post First Nation. The Borden Impacts and Benefits Agreement was signed in 2018 with Chapleau Cree First Nation, Chapleau Ojibwe First Nation, and Brunswick House First Nation. In 2019, the Michipicoten Benefits Agreement was signed. Through these agreements Newmont is pleased to employ Indigenous people from the communities that host and surround the Porcupine operations and to have key business partnerships with Indigenous owned enterprises.
