Barrick’s $1 Billion Zambian Mine Draws Chinese Interest
(Bloomberg) -- China Minmetals Corp., Jiangxi Copper Co. and Zijin Mining Group Co. are among companies considering bids for Barrick Gold Corp.’s Zambian copper mine that could fetch about $1 billion, people with knowledge of the matter said.China Molybdenum Co. and Aluminum Corp. of China, known as Chinalco, were also invited to bid, said the people, who asked not to be identified as the information is private.Barrick, the world’s second-largest bullion producer, is working with advisers to solicit interest for the Lumwana mine, the people said. The Toronto-based miner continues to target $1.5 billion of asset sales by the end of 2020, Chief Executive Officer Mark Bristow said in August.Deliberations are at an early stage, and there’s no certainty they will result in a transaction, the people said.Representatives for Barrick, China Minmetals, Jiangxi Copper and Zijin declined to comment. Representatives at China Molybdenum and Chinalco couldn’t immediately comment.Lumwana, an open-pit mine, is expected to produce 210 million to 240 million pounds of copper this year and has proven and probable copper reserves of 4.5 billion pounds, according to Barrick’s website.Barrick acquired Lumwana as part of its takeover of Equinox Minerals Ltd. for more than $7 billion in 2011 and took a $3 billion writedown on the mine two years later. Lumwana was valued at about $1 billion in 2014. Subsequently, the Zambian government proposed to raise mining taxes, putting Lumwana in a “challenging situation,” according to Bristow.Barrick is working with Bank of Nova Scotia to identify buyers for its Tongon Gold mine in the Ivory Coast as the company ramps up asset disposals following its purchase of Randgold Resources Ltd., people familiar with the matter said in August.\--With assistance from Winnie Zhu.To contact the reporters on this story: Vinicy Chan in New York at vchan91@bloomberg.net;David Stringer in Melbourne at dstringer3@bloomberg.netTo contact the editors responsible for this story: Fion Li at fli59@bloomberg.net, Ville Heiskanen, Matthew MonksFor more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.com©2019 Bloomberg L.P.

7 International Growth Stocks for Your Shortlist
With the U.S.-China trade war again showing no sign of resolution, and combined with other geopolitical flashpoints, plowing into growth stocks is probably the last thing on many investors' agendas. And while the U.S. markets have certainly printed some red ink recently, a growth-based strategy surprisingly isn't completely insane. We just may be looking at the wrong place.Stereotypically, Americans tend not to think much beyond their zip code, let alone their country. That's perhaps the privilege of living in the greatest nation on earth. In this case, though, being self-absorbed has some tangible consequences. Looking beyond our borders, international growth stocks offer interesting plays for the risk-tolerant investor.In full disclosure, I've been negative on both the domestic and global economies. Obviously, I'm not the arbiter of what happens next. And certain indicators, such as the economic surprise indices, suggest that global markets are stronger than advertised. This includes countries like Japan, Canada, China, and the Eurozone. If true, that bodes very well for international growth stocks.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading TipsAnother factor potentially bolstering international growth stocks is that the U.S. markets are stretched. Shrewd investors want to see more bang for their buck. Likely, they're not going to get much stateside. However, global markets offer upside, if you're willing to stomach the risk. * Do These 7 Retail Stocks Make the Grade? If that's you, here are seven international growth stocks to consider: Barrick Gold (GOLD)Source: Shutterstock Headquartered in Canada, Barrick Gold (NYSE:GOLD) is easily one of the best international growth stocks to put on your short list. With fears rising about geopolitical flashpoints, as well as our own economic stability, GOLD stock is a perfect choice for those who want exposure to safe-haven assets, but don't want the hassle of owning physical bullion.Plus, if you're pessimistic about the broader narrative, GOLD stock offers a hybrid play: you can indirect exposure to safe-haven assets while still participating in the financial system. Better yet, analysts project serious growth for the mining company. Next year, they anticipate growth of 46%, and nearly 34% per annum over the next five years.While this sounds rather robust, it's not at all unreasonable. Gold prices have been deflated for several years, so they're due for a pick-me-up. Additionally, the catalysts - primarily fear and uncertainty - are evident in the markets. Thus, keep GOLD stock close to your chest. Something tells me you'll be glad you did. Sibanye Gold (SBGL)Source: Shutterstock I don't intend to turn this list of international growth stocks into a mining-centric write-up. Nevertheless, the bullish narrative for Sibanye Gold (NYSE:SBGL) is, in my opinion, extremely powerful.For starters, SBGL stock offers the same hybrid opportunity as Barrick Gold: you get the indirect protection that precious metals provide if we suffer economic hardship, as well as the convenience of plugging into the financial system. More importantly, though, the South African-headquartered mining firm specializes in platinum and palladium production.Both metals are critical for the development of catalytic converters. Due to stricter emissions standards in the automotive industry, palladium demand has already skyrocketed. While electric vehicles aim to overturn traditional fossil-fueled cars, this complete transition won't happen so quickly. This situation augurs very well for SBGL stock. * Are These 10 High-Yielding S&P Dividend Stocks Traps or Treasures? Moreover, we have to think about the political situation. Increasingly, climate change and its associated issues have taken center stage. For now, the best way to address earth's climate is through more rigorous emissions standards. This will only spike up palladium and platinum demand, further bolstering SBGL stock. Sony (SNE)Long playing second fiddle to consumer electronics king Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), my alma mater Sony (NYSE:SNE) offers an interesting play among international growth stocks. For one thing, I tend to believe in market cycles. As one organization dominates, they must provide increasingly compelling storylines to keep investors interested. Because SNE stock is on the outside looking in, they don't have to worry about that pressure.Fundamentally, SNE stock may be fortuitously well positioned. I say this because with peak smartphone, it's become exponentially harder to excite customers. According to some sources, for instance, Apple's new iPhone 11 isn't all that great.In contrast, I'm very excited about Sony's upcoming product pipeline. Sure, I'm biased. But with something as powerful as the upcoming PlayStation 5, it doesn't matter: it's almost a guarantee that Sony's flagship product will receive massive fanfare. Obviously, this is a net positive for SNE stock.Plus, Sony isn't just riding the PlayStation horse. They've got other viable platforms, such as artificial intelligence-based video-content creators, as well as next-generation "pro-sumer" digital cameras. It all makes for a strong contrarian candidate among international growth stocks. Cemex (CX)Source: Wikimedia CommonsPresident Donald Trump may not always show his appreciation, but Mexico is a vital partner to the U.S. Of course, because of the current political situation, this relationship is unfortunately strained, to put it mildly. But that shouldn't dissuade you from considering Cemex (NYSE:CX) among your list of international growth stocks.Since July of 2017, CX stock has unfortunately suffered substantial volatility. Some of the harsh rhetoric from the White House has spilled over into our trade agreements with Mexico. As such, many investors have chosen to dump Cemex.But with shares down so much since then, I think it's time to put CX stock on your radar. First, the U.S. isn't Mexico's only trading partner. Thanks to modernization initiatives and various efficiencies, Mexico represents an attractive place for business. Unsurprisingly, foreign direct investment dollars have flowed in from Japan and the European Union. * 8 Dividend Stocks to Buy for a Recession Finally, keep in mind that Mexico features very favorable demographics. Currently, almost half of the country's population is what we would term working age. Also, because of their robust population growth, Mexicans aged zero to 14 years represent almost 27% of the country's tally. Thus, you're looking at a very important global labor market, which is net positive for CX stock. Tencent (TCEHY)Source: Shutterstock With Chinese growth stocks at the forefront of the U.S.-China trade war, this sector seems inevitably doomed. Again, in the interest of full transparency, I've recently adopted a less-than-positive stance on China. As the word of words continue to heat up, it's hard to imagine that companies like Tencent (OTCMKTS:TCEHY) can emerge from the muck without a trade deal.That said, TCEHY stock is a name you shouldn't ignore. Although many investors like to put tags on Tencent, such as China's Facebook (NASDAQ:FB), it's much more than that. For example, Tencent owns the WeChat app, which has more than a billion monthly users. That's second only to Facebook's WhatsApp and Messenger platforms.But a more critical point boosting the bullish thesis for TCEHY stock is WeChat's comprehensive nature. Like any messaging app, it's any easy way to connect with family, friends and colleagues. However, WeChat also arranges payments and books flights and hotel rooms.As China continues its push toward full modernization, WeChat will play a pivotal role. Therefore, you've got to keep TCEHY stock on your short list, irrespective of how you feel about the trade war. Ericsson (ERIC)Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC) and especially rival Nokia (NYSE:NOK) once dominated the "old school" cellphone market. But once Apple's iPhone launched, it has largely been dead man walking for ERIC stock.And there's really no question that Ericsson is a speculative name. For context, back during the tech bubble, ERIC stock once had a triple-digit price. Today, with shares firmly priced under $10, those glory days are long gone.Ordinarily, most conservative investors wouldn't give a second thought to Ericsson. However, with the telecom industry's 5G rollout, the long-embattled company suddenly has a lifeline. Through key global partnerships, Ericsson has provided the equipment necessary to implement this next-generation technology. As this rollout continues, ERIC stock may attract more investor dollars. * Do These 7 Retail Stocks Make the Grade? Analysts project growth of 35.1% next year, and nearly 64% per annum over the next five years. It's an interesting opportunity. However, just be careful that ERIC has a history of wild volatility. Credicorp (BAP)Admittedly, the idea of incorporating Credicorp (NYSE:BAP) into this list of international growth stocks is fraught with risk. As Peru's largest financial holding, BAP stock immediately loses credibility. If you haven't heard, the country is chest-deep in a political crisis. To very briefly summarize, Peru's president and vice president each claim to be the nation's rightful leader.So, why even think about BAP stock? For one thing, Peru has endured massive structural changes over the last few decades. While this present crisis is indeed worrisome, the Peruvian people have a long history of dealing with these high-level shenanigans. While I'm not trying to make light of the situation, it's not unreasonable to believe that the nation will eventually resume business as usual.When it does, Peru has interesting characteristics that could help lift BAP stock. Primarily, the country's GDP is mostly tied to the services sector. Because of that, Peru needs a robust workforce, which they have. Their population pyramid is very favorable, featuring a very large allocation of young people.As of this writing, Josh Enomoto is long gold bullion and SNE stock.

Newmont Goldcorp CEO: Here's how we plan to set up decades of gold production
When Newmont Goldcorp sought a new leader, it would’ve been difficult find someone whose resume matched the giant miner’s needs better than Tom Palmer. The Greenwood Village-based gold company (NYSE: NEM) is folding six international mines into its business after a $10 billion deal buying Canada’s Goldcorp. It’s looking to extend to the new mines a culture of safety and operational improvement that Palmer helped shape as an executive under his predecessor, Gary Goldberg, who retired from being CEO after seven years leading the business to become the world’s largest gold producer.

Showcasing the world’s leading gold mining complex
The new Nevada Gold Mines complex is hosting a group of analysts for their first site visit since the formation of the Barrick / Newmont Goldcorp joint venture at the beginning of July. The complex represents the single largest gold producing operation in the world and includes three Tier 1 mines. In an announcement earlier this week, Barrick reported a new discovery hole4 about 2 kilometers from the best ever drilling intercept at its Fourmile project in Nevada and said this pointed to the potential for at least one more Tier 1 gold mine through the combination of Fourmile with the nearby Goldrush development project. Fourmile was not included in the recent combination of Nevada assets but the company has the right to bring it into the joint venture for fair market value provided certain agreed investment criteria are met.

Pricey Gold Doesn’t Mean Fancy Food for Miners Meeting in Denver
(Bloomberg) -- Bullion may be trading near a six-year high, but gold-mining executives keen to show they’re conscientious on costs were munching on potato salad instead of oysters at this week’s industry gathering in Denver.As the chief executive officer of Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd., Sean Boyd, put it: “A general theme of this conference has been the need to maintain discipline.”That sentiment was echoed in presentations, interviews and the general coffee-time chatter at the gold industry’s largest U.S. gathering of the year. There was little buzz when it came to deals, and most mining executives stressed they were making business decisions based on a gold price of $1,200 an ounce, even as the metal traded above $1,500.“The message to the mines isn’t ‘It’s open season now,”’ for ramping up output at all cost, Boyd said in a presentation at the Denver Gold Forum on Tuesday.Gold producers are putting into practice hard lessons learned during the metal’s last bull surge. Prices in the spot market reached a record $1,921.17 in 2011, but quickly started to collapse from the euphoria as gains in the equity market and economic growth meant the metal fell out of favor as a haven. By the end of 2015, prices had tumbled about 45%.In the meantime, mining companies started ramping up production during the rally, at times taking on high-capital projects. The subsequent price slump dismayed investors who have only been lured back after cost cutting, debt reduction and boosts in productivity.No PressureNow that bullion is back in favor, many miners are playing it safe. CEOs including Sebastien de Montessus of Endeavour Mining Corp. and Paul Rollinson of Kinross Gold Corp. emphasized they didn’t feel pressure to get into big-time mergers and acquisitions. Most executives speaking during presentations and interviews emphasized plans for organic growth and optimizing existing assets.Barrick Gold Corp. CEO Mark Bristow also said there wasn’t much deal chatter at the conference, while saying that consolidation would be good for the industry.To be sure, there does seem to be some deal interest when it comes to Chinese producers. China Gold International Resources Corp., the overseas arm of state-owned China National Gold Group, is on the hunt for acquisitions to replenish its pipeline, Jerry Xie, executive vice president, said in an interview. The company is comfortable making purchases with a price tag at roughly $1 billion to $2 billion, Xie said.Prudence PervadesThat seemed to be a rare exception. Even when it comes to selling, producers are cautious.Newmont Goldcorp Corp.’s incoming CEO Tom Palmer said he’s ready to sit tight on investments even if that means not reaching a previously announced goal of as much as $1.5 billion in asset sales after the company’s merger with Goldcorp.“We’re in no rush to sell anything,” Palmer said in an interview Tuesday at the Denver Gold Forum.In an interview with Bloomberg Television, Palmer said there hasn’t been much discussion of M&A at the conference. That runs counter to what some analysts were expecting before the conference. Newmont’s mega-merger with Goldcorp, along with Barrick’s purchase of Randgold Resources Ltd., helped drive M&A in the sector to $18.2 billion in 2019, the highest level in eight years, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.Now companies are turning their focus to “managing their businesses,” Palmer said.To contact the reporters on this story: Vinicy Chan in New York at vchan91@bloomberg.net;Millie Munshi in Denver at mmunshi@bloomberg.netTo contact the editors responsible for this story: Luzi Ann Javier at ljavier@bloomberg.net, Joe Richter, Steven FrankFor more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.com©2019 Bloomberg L.P.

UPDATE 1-Barrick CEO Bristow says Nevada gold find shows big potential
A fresh gold discovery by Barrick Gold Corp in Nevada is "fantastically significant" and shows there still is rich potential in the region for exploration, Chief Executive Officer Mark Bristow said in an interview on Tuesday. Barrick announced the discovery hole on Tuesday and said its proximity about 1.25-mile (2 kilometers) from the company's Fourmile project points to at least one more Tier 1 gold mine through the combination of Fourmile with the nearby Goldrush development project. "We’re super excited about that," Bristow said on the sidelines of the Denver Gold Forum.

Newmont’s Incoming CEO Says No ‘Fire Sale’ Coming for Assets
(Bloomberg) -- Newmont Goldcorp Corp. is ready to sit tight on asset sales, even if that means not reaching a previously announced goal of as much as $1.5 billion in divestments.That’s according to Tom Palmer, the company’s incoming chief executive officer. The world’s largest gold producer will be focusing on optimizing its current assets and is happy overall with its portfolio, other than a previously announced sale of Red Lake in Canada, he said.“We’re in no rush to sell anything,” Palmer said in an interview Tuesday at the Denver Gold Forum. “There will be no fire sale in Newmont Goldcorp.”That’s a change of tone. Outgoing CEO Gary Goldberg said earlier this month Newmont was still planning to divest up to $1.5 billion in assets following its $10 billion acquisition of rival Goldcorp in April, taking advantage of higher gold prices.On Tuesday, Palmer said the company was forging ahead with its planned sale of Red Lake, a former Goldcorp asset, and has fielded interest from about a dozen parties. He also said any additional sales would only come after careful study, and Newmont was ready to do more work to understand what value can be “extracted” from the assets.‘No Pressure’“There are assets that we are looking to optimize, and we’ll spend two to even three years to understand them,” he said. “There’s absolutely no pressure to sell assets to generate cash.”Newmont’s seeming step back from divestments fits an overall cautious tone at the Denver conference. Even with gold prices trading above $1,500 an ounce and reaching a six-year high earlier this month, in presentations and interviews mining executives have expressed a desire to be disciplined when it comes to deal making. Many, including Palmer, also stressed they’re still working to ensure their businesses can be profitable based on the assumption of a $1,200 gold price.Kalgoorlie SaleIn an interview with Bloomberg Television, Palmer said there hasn’t been much discussion of mergers and acquisitions at the Denver Gold Forum. That runs counter to what some analysts were expecting before the conference. Newmont’s mega-merger with Goldcorp along with Barrick Gold Corp.’s purchase of Randgold Resources Ltd. helped drive M&A in the sector to $18.2 billion in 2019, the highest level in eight years, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.Now companies are turning their focus to “managing their businesses,” Palmer said.Palmer said Newmont, which owns 50% of the Kalgoorlie Super Pit in Australia, wasn’t aware how much progress Barrick had made in its planned sale of its half of the mine.“We support them in terms of we’ll provide information as we’re the manager of the operation, but we’re not privy to the process they’re running,” Palmer said of Barrick’s planned sale.‘Compelling Value’Newmont would consider buying Barrick’s stake, and it would also be open to selling its half, as Barrick CEO Mark Bristow has suggested might make sense.“If we can get the other half at a right price, we’ll always be interested in buying,” Palmer said. “If someone comes to us with a compelling value, we’ll consider that,” he said of Kalgoorlie.“But apart from that, we are focused on optimizing and realizing its value,” and the company is also “happy” to work with a new partner, as they’ve done with Barrick, he said.Palmer will succeed Goldberg as CEO on Oct. 1. as part of a previously announced succession plan.‘Growing Our Margins’Palmer has played a central role in leading the Newmont-Goldcorp integration and the establishment of the joint venture with Barrick in Nevada, Newmont said in a statement last week. Palmer has a strong mining pedigree, but is less of a public figure than Barrick’s Bristow, whose colorful quotes have regularly established him as part of the news cycle. He and Bristow will need to cooperate as they implement a sweeping joint venture in Nevada.In terms of his mandate as CEO, Palmer said his first priority is “safety of our people.”“Second one for me, it’d be growing our margins, making sure we’re operating on our technical and financial discipline,” he said. “Third one is growing our reserves and resources through our exploration programs. Fourth, optimizing our project pipeline. The fifth one is to maintain our capital allocation discipline. If we are generating additional free cash because of gold prices, we may start paying down debts.”(Updates with comments from Palmer starting in third paragraph.)To contact the reporters on this story: Vinicy Chan in New York at vchan91@bloomberg.net;Millie Munshi in Denver at mmunshi@bloomberg.netTo contact the editors responsible for this story: Luzi Ann Javier at ljavier@bloomberg.net, Steven Frank, Joe RichterFor more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.com©2019 Bloomberg L.P.
