Yes that LG monitor will work using an HDMI cable from the Mac Mini's HDMI port.

Optionally you can also use a USB-C to HDMI adapter or a USB-C to DVI adapter.


For more info on connecting display(s) to the Mac Mini's,

That monitor has a resolution of 1920x1080, and has an HDMI input.

Simultaneously supports up to two displays:

• One display with up to 6K resolution at 60Hz connected via Thunderbolt AND
