Newmont Goldcorp Corporation (Newmont Goldcorp or the Company) announced that later today the Company intends to temporarily suspend operations at the Peñasquito mine in Mexico pending resolution of an illegal blockade by a trucking contractor and some members of the Cedros community that began on March 27, 2019.
