EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 6 (“Amendment No. 6”) to Schedule 13D amends the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 9, 2007, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on October 31, 2007; Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on December 7, 2007; Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on December 26, 2007; Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on January 7, 2008; and Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on January 15, 2008 (as amended by Amendment No. 6, the “Schedule 13D”) by Newmont Mining Corporation of Canada Limited, a federal corporation under the Canada Business Corporation Act (“Newmont Canada”), and Newmont Mining Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Newmont,” and together with Newmont Canada, the “Reporting Persons”), amends and supplements the following items of the Schedule 13D. Capitalized terms used and not defined have the respective meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is supplemented as follows:

On January 18, 2008 at 8:00 p.m. (Toronto time) the Offer expired. At the expiration time of the Offer, Acquisition Sub had taken up an aggregate of 195,357,063 common shares of the Issuer under the Offer.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a) Newmont Canada beneficially owns 37,000,000 common shares of the Issuer, including 18,500,000 common shares that it currently owns and 18,500,000 common shares that are issuable upon the exercise of warrants issued by the Issuer that it is deemed to beneficially own. Acquisition Sub beneficially owns 195,357,063 common shares of the Issuer that have been taken up by Acquisition Sub under the Offer. Because of Newmont Canada’s ownership of 100% of the outstanding equity of Acquisition Sub, Newmont Canada is deemed for certain purposes to beneficially own all of the common shares of the Issuer owned by Acquisition Sub. Because of Newmont’s indirect ownership of 100% of the outstanding equity of Newmont Canada and Acquisition Sub, Newmont is deemed for certain purposes to beneficially own all of the 232,357,063 common shares of the Issuer beneficially owned by Newmont Canada and Acquisition Sub. Those 232,357,063 common shares represent approximately 95.9% of the 242,262,231 common shares represented to be outstanding by the Issuer to Newmont as of December 3, 2007, as adjusted to account for the 18,500,000 common shares that are issuable under the warrants held by Newmont Canada.

(b) Newmont Canada holds the sole power to vote and dispose of the 37,000,000 common shares beneficially owned by Newmont Canada and is deemed for certain purposes to hold the sole power to vote and dispose of the 195,357,063 common shares beneficially owned by Acquisition Sub. Newmont is deemed for certain purposes to hold the sole power to vote and dispose of the 232,357,063 common shares beneficially owned by Newmont as a result of its ownership of Newmont Canada and Newmont Canada’s ownership of Acquisition Sub.

(c) As described in Item 4 above, on January 15, 2008, Acquisition Sub mailed the Notice of Compulsory Acquisition, exercising its right under section 300 of the BCBCA to acquire all of the common shares of the Issuer that Acquisition Sub did not acquire in the Offer. Other than the foregoing transaction and the other transactions described in Items 3 and 4 above, neither Newmont Canada nor Newmont, nor any director or executive officer of Newmont Canada or Newmont, has effected any transaction in the common shares of the Issuer during the past 60 days.

(d) No other person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of the common shares of the Issuer that are beneficially owned by Newmont Canada and Newmont.

(e) Not applicable.
