                                                                 JANUARY 25,2002

To Our Shareholders:

On February 13, 2002, we will be gathering in Denver at a Special Meeting of
shareholders to consider Newmont's acquisitions of Normandy Mining Limited and
Franco-Nevada Mining Corporation Limited. As you will have seen in the proxy
materials that we mailed to you earlier this month, this is a unique opportunity
that we believe will result in the creation of the world's premier gold company.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF NEWMONT RECOMMENDS STRONGLY THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE
MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED AT THE SPECIAL MEETING TO ENABLE US TO MOVE THIS
INITIATIVE FORWARD.

We would like to share with you some thoughts about this opportunity and what it
means for Newmont and for you, as shareholders of Newmont.

Traditionally, the gold industry has grown mine-by-mine as exploration efforts
identified economic resources. Those mines, in turn, have grown with improved
recovery technology. This process has resulted in an industry that is fragmented
and, to some degree, inefficient.


Other natural resource industries - oil and gas, copper, aluminum and nickel -
also shared these characteristics. They have, however, more recently pursued a
process of rationalization through industry-wide consolidation.


We believe that similar consolidation will benefit participants in the gold
industry and, in particular, those who have the initiative and capacity to lead
that process. We believe that Newmont can, and should, be that leader. The
integration of Normandy and Franco-Nevada into Newmont's existing operations is
the responsible answer for the gold market and the right thing to do for Newmont
and its shareholders.

As illustrated in the accompanying Fact Sheet, each of Newmont, Normandy and
Franco-Nevada has significant strengths in its own right. We believe that the
case for combining those strengths in Newmont is overwhelming.

Upon completion of these acquisitions, Newmont will:

- have the largest reserve base and highest annual production of gold in the
world;

- be one of the best capitalized gold companies (a net-debt to
total-capitalization ratio of approximately 24%), with the financial strength to
develop attractive projects and to significantly reduce debt over time, even at
current gold prices;

- operate a diversified portfolio of world-class operations with balanced
political risk (60 percent of reserves and 70 percent of production in
politically stable countries in North America and Australia);

- offer investors the most leverage to a rising gold price of any major
producer;

- have the ability to optimize the company's asset portfolio;






- benefit from consistent cash flow (even in a low gold price environment)
generated by the high margin royalty and investment business of
Franco-Nevada, which will continue to operate as a division of the combined
company; and

- have a strong, seasoned management team and committed employees to deliver
shareholder value through global exploration, development and operation,
merchant banking and merger integration.

We intend to build upon this platform by:

- striving to reduce our total cash costs so as to be in the lowest quartile in
the industry;

- concentrating on large mining districts, such as Nevada, Peru and Western
Australia;

- developing a pipeline of new projects as gold demand warrants;

- rationalizing operations with neighboring gold producers;

- reducing the net-debt to total-capitalization ratio to less than 20 percent
over the first year, with a goal of less than 10 percent over the longer term;

- selling or otherwise disposing of non-core assets; and

- applying Franco-Nevada's demonstrated merchant banking expertise to our
enhanced base of operations.

We intend to continue to pursue our no-hedging philosophy and expect to continue
to offer investors the most leverage to a rising gold price of all major gold
companies. We also intend to opportunistically unwind Normandy's hedge book as
market circumstances permit. After that process is completed, we anticipate that
Newmont will generate nearly $200 million in incremental annual pre-tax cash
flow from a $25 per ounce increase in the gold price - nearly eight times the
leverage of our largest North American competitor. If the gold price declines,
the company should be buffered by the steady stream of royalty income generated
by Franco-Nevada.

Although we will be the world's largest gold producer, we are not driven by size
but rather by a focus on generating superior returns for our shareholders. We
are committed to gold and believe in its intrinsic long-term value and relevance
to a balanced investment portfolio.

In that context, I will be especially pleased to welcome Pierre Lassonde as
Newmont's new President upon the closing of our transactions. A co-founder and
Co-Chief Executive Officer of Franco-Nevada, Pierre is one of the world's
foremost authorities on gold investing and has a proven track record of
delivering shareholder value. I am also pleased that Pierre, his Co-Chief
Executive Officer Seymour Schulich, and Normandy's Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer Robert Champion de Crespigny, will be bringing their combined talents to
our Board of Directors.

If you have not already done so, I ask that you please promptly vote your proxy
by phone, internet or mail.

We are extremely excited about the future prospects for Newmont and look forward
to your continuing support as we move forward.


Sincerely,

/s/ Wayne W. Murdy

Wayne W. Murdy
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
