Case Study: Newmont achieves community support for Empire Mine environmental remediation with Sigler Communications

Newmont Mining Corporation restores Empire Mine support with Sigler Communications after earlier opposition

The customer, Newmont Mining Corporation, faced the challenge of conducting environmental cleanup at the historic Empire Mine while navigating stakeholder concerns and potential opposition. They retained the vendor Sigler Communications to provide strategic communications counsel and stakeholder engagement services for the remediation project.

Sigler Communications implemented a solution that included community announcements, informational briefings for park staff, a press conference, and one-on-one briefings with key NGOs and legislators. By taking this unified approach to public education, Sigler helped the project proceed with community support and without the opposition that had plagued earlier cleanup attempts.
