We are growing Newcrest in line with our aspiration to have exposure to five Tier 1

In FY19 we made significant progress through organic growth, greenfield exploration,
early entry business with explorers, and acquisition and mergers.
• We entered an agreement to acquire 70% of Red Chris in
Canada in a joint venture with Imperial Metals.
• We announced a farm-in agreement with Greatland Gold in
Western Australia in relation to the Havieron tenement.
• We have equity investments in Lundin Gold and Solgold in
Ecuador, and with Azucar Minerals, Mexico, and five early stage
farm-in projects in the Maricunga Belt in Argentina and Chile.
• We targeted advanced greenfield opportunities and built on
existing positions in British Columbia (Canada),
Paterson Province (Australia), Miracunga Belt (Chile),
Northern Andes (Ecuador) and Tanami (Australia).'
