Nevada Gold Mines is operated by Barrick, a sector-leading gold and copper producer.
Creating long-term value for all of Nevada. Nevada Gold Mines is a joint venture between Barrick (61.5%) and Newmont (38.5%) that combined their significant assets across Nevada in 2019 to create the single largest gold-producing complex in the world.
We live out our vision to create long-term value for all of Nevada by embedding the principles of partnership and sustainability into every decision we make.
The profitability of our business and our corporate social responsibility go hand in hand. By supporting our employees, suppliers and stakeholders - while minimizing the environmental impacts of our operations - we bring sustainable long-term social and economic benefits to Nevada.
The foundation of our philosophy is the development of partnerships: be they at the local level with our surrounding communities, Native American Tribes and County authorities; or statewide across Nevada as a whole.
INDIRECT ECONOMIC IMPACT
Nevada Gold Mines employs more than 7,000 men and women at our operations across northern Nevada and in our office in Henderson. In 2020, NGM employees earned $1.1 billion in total compensation, including wages, incentives and benefits. Nevada's mining industry has the highest average wage of any sector in the state, meaning our employees are able to contribute more to their local economies, and lean on state resources less. Our employees are highly skilled, technical professionals ranging from accountants to welders, IT specialists to metallurgists, drillers to data scientists - skills essential to a diversified economy.
In 2020, Nevada Gold Mines spent nearly $1 billion with our suppliers in state, supporting hundreds of businesses, thousands of employees and helping to grow and diversify Nevada's economy.

I would encourage veterans to ask how they can relate their military profession to the position they're applying for. It may not be a direct transfer to what they're accustomed to, but if given a chance, I'm positive they would surprise you in a good way. Veterans are typically very responsible, proactive, and possess the ability to make the best of any situation.
