Australia to propose tax incentives for critical minerals
The proposed law will set up a tax incentive worth 10% of relevant processing and refining costs for 31 critical minerals.
Newcrest Mining (ASX: NCM) on Friday posted a 22.2% increase in annual profit, buoyed by robust gold and copper sales volumes from its flagship Cadia mine in New South Wales.
Australia’s biggest listed gold miner posted an underlying profit of $561 million for the full year ended June 30, compared with $459 million a year earlier.
The Melbourne-headquartered company declared a final dividend of 14.5 cents per share, up from 11 cents a year earlier.
