StumbleMining company shuts down one mill, workers assigned to other operations
Tuesday, Oct. 12, 1999 | 9:24 a.m.
Mary Korpi, Newmont's director of external affairs for Nevada, said there were no layoffs and the 39 hourly and salaried employees went on to other Newmont jobs.
"It's there should there be a shift in economics," Korpi said.
Low gold prices forced the closure. Newmont has been trimming costs and rearranging milling efforts to keep expenses down. The mill was shut down for a time last year, too, during layoffs at the Carlin operations.
