Newmont considers acquisition of Barrick's Nevada gold assets.

Newmont is reportedly considering a deal to acquire Barrick's Nevada gold assets, although it's unclear how receptive Barrick would be. Newmont already owns a 38% stake in the joint venture that operates the Carlin and Goldstrike mines, which are among the largest gold mines in the world. A potential deal would likely be a major acquisition for Newmont, which is already one of the largest gold miners in the world.
