US-based gold miner Newmont has appointed Harry (Red) Conger to its board of directors, bringing 46 years of extensive mining and leadership experience.

He recently retired from Canadian major Teck Resources, where he served as president and COO.

Welcoming Conger, Newmont president and CEO Tom Palmer said he brought significant operational leadership to the board.  

“Throughout his distinguished career, he has gained a wealth of unparalleled experience in the mining sector and strategic insights,” stated Palmer.

Prior to Teck, Red spent more than a decade at Freeport-McMoRan, ending his tenure at the company as president and COO, Americas. He began his mining career at Kennecott Copper’s Bingham Canyon mine, followed by more than two decades at Phelps Dodge Corporation, where he oversaw mining and processing across multiple operations in North America and South America.

In addition to his corporate roles, Red continues to be an active leader across the broader mining industry, at organisations such as the National Mining Association where he previously served as chairman, and the New Mexico Mining Commission where he previously served as commissioner. He has been recognized for his leadership and contributions to the mining industry, reflected in a variety of industry awards, including most recently being elected to the National Academy of Engineering.
