NEWMONT MINING CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (interim statements) of Newmont Mining Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, Newmont or the Company) are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim statements have been included. The results reported in these interim statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with Newmonts Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed February 22, 2013 on Form 10-K. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements and, in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q, certain information and footnote disclosures required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted. References to A$ refer to Australian currency, C$ to Canadian currency and NZ$ to New Zealand currency.
On March 12, 2013, Newmont completed the sale of the Hope Bay Project to TMAC Resources Inc. (TMAC). At September 30, 2013, Newmont held a 49.9% voting interest in TMAC and an economic interest of 70.4%. The Company has made available a $15 credit facility due June 2014. Newmont has identified TMAC as a Variable Interest Entity (VIE) under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC)Consolidation guidance. Based upon the ASC guidance for VIEs, and the ownership structure, Newmont has determined that it has a controlling financial interest in TMAC and is therefore the primary beneficiary. As such, Newmont consolidated TMAC in its consolidated financial statements. TMAC has indicated that they anticipate raising funds at an undetermined date through an initial public offering (IPO). Should such an IPO occur, which there can be no assurance of such offering occurring, it is expected that Newmonts ownership will be reduced and Newmont would reevaluate whether or not it is still required to consolidate under the applicable ASC guidance.
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Reporting of Amounts reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
In February 2013, ASC guidance was issued related to items reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income(Loss). The new standard requires either in a single note or parenthetically on the face of the financial statements: (i) the effect of significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive income based on its source and (ii) the income statement line items affected by the reclassification. Adoption of the new guidance, effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013, had no impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
In November 2011, ASC guidance was issued related to disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. The new standard requires disclosures to allow investors to better compare financial statements prepared under U.S. GAAP with financial statements prepared under IFRS. In January 2013, an update was issued to further clarify that the disclosure requirements are limited to derivatives, repurchase agreements, and securities lending transactions to the extent that they are (i) offset in the financial statements or (ii) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. Adoption of the new guidance, effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2013, had no impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit
In July 2013, ASC guidance was issued related to the presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward exists. The updated guidance requires an entity to net its unrecognized tax benefits against the deferred tax assets for all same jurisdiction net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or tax credit carryforwards. A gross presentation will be required only if such carryforwards are not available or would not be used by the entity to settle any additional income taxes resulting from disallowance of the uncertain tax position. The update is effective prospectively for the Companys fiscal year beginning January 1, 2014.
5
NEWMONT MINING CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
The Company is still evaluating the impact of the updated guidance on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Foreign Currency Matters
In March 2013, ASC guidance was issued related to Foreign Currency Matters to clarify the treatment of cumulative translation adjustments when a parent sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a business within a foreign entity. The updated guidance also resolves the diversity in practice for the treatment of business combinations achieved in stages in a foreign entity. The update is effective prospectively for the Companys fiscal year beginning January 1, 2014. The Company does not expect the updated guidance to have an impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Write-downs totaled $3 and $2,265 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. The 2013 write-downs were primarily due to a decrease in the Companys long-term gold and copper price assumptions during the second quarter to $1,400 per ounce and $3.00 per pound, respectively, combined with rising operating costs. These factors represented significant changes in the business, requiring the Company to evaluate for impairment. For purposes of this evaluation, estimates of future cash flows of the individual reporting units were used to determine fair value. The estimated cash flows were derived from life-of-mine plans, developed using long-term pricing reflective of the current price environment and managements projections for operating costs. Refer to Note 14 for additional information related to the fair value determination of the impairment.

Due to the above conditions, Goodwill was included in the Companys impairment analysis. After-tax discounted future cash flows of reporting units with Goodwill were analyzed. Goodwill at Other Australia / New Zealand had a carrying value of $188 at December 31, 2012. As a result of this evaluation, the Company recorded an impairment of $56, resulting in a carrying value of $132 at September 30, 2013.

NOTE 8 INCOME AND MINING TAXES
During the third quarter of 2013, the Company recorded an estimated income and mining tax expense of $154, resulting in an effective tax rate of 26%. Estimated income and mining tax expense during the third quarter of 2012 was $228 for an effective tax rate of 32%. The lower effective tax rate on the income in the third quarter of 2013 is a result of tax planning related to the sale of the Canadian Oil Sands investment and the Canadian capital gains tax rate associated with the sale partially offset by a diluted benefit from percentage depletion.
During the first nine months of 2013, the estimated income and mining tax expense was $10, resulting in an effective tax rate of less than 0%. Estimated income and mining tax expense during the first nine months of 2012 was $746 for an effective tax rate of 32%. The lower effective tax rate on the loss in the first nine months of 2013 is primarily due to an increase in the Companys valuation allowance on certain deferred tax assets partially offset by the benefit related to tax planning on the sale of the Canadian Oil Sands investment and the Canadian capital gains tax rate associated with the sale.
A valuation allowance is provided for those deferred tax assets for which it is more likely than not that the related benefits will not be realized. In determining the amount of the valuation allowance, each quarter the Company considers estimated future taxable income as well as feasible tax planning strategies in each jurisdiction to determine if the deferred tax assets are realizable. If it is determined that the Company will not realize all or a portion of its deferred tax assets, it will place or increase a valuation allowance. Conversely, if determined that it will ultimately be able to realize all or a portion of the related benefits for which a valuation allowance has been provided, all or a portion of the related valuation allowance will be reduced.
The Companys income and mining tax expense differed from the amounts computed by applying the United States statutory corporate income tax rate for the following reasons:

The Company operates in numerous countries around the world and accordingly it is subject to, and pays annual income taxes under, the various income tax regimes in the countries in which it operates. Some of these tax regimes are defined by contractual agreements with the local government, and others are defined by the general corporate income tax laws of the country. The Company has historically filed, and continues to file, all required income tax returns and pay the income taxes reasonably determined to be due. The tax rules and regulations in many countries are highly complex and subject to interpretation. From time to time the Company is subject to a review of its historic income tax filings and in connection with such reviews, disputes can arise with the taxing authorities over the interpretation or application of certain rules to the Companys business conducted within the country involved.

At September 30, 2013, the Companys total unrecognized tax benefit was $376 for uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken on income tax returns. Of this, $33 represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the Companys effective income tax rate.
As a result of the statute of limitations that expire in the next 12 months in various jurisdictions, and possible settlements of audit-related issues with taxing authorities in various jurisdictions with respect to which none of the issues are individually significant, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of its net unrecognized income tax benefits will decrease by approximately $5 to $10 in the next 12 months.
NOTE 9 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Discontinued operations include Holloway Mining Company, which owned the Holt-McDermott property (Holt property) that was sold to St. Andrew Goldfields Ltd. (St. Andrew) in 2006. In 2009, the Superior Court issued a decision finding Newmont Canada Corporation (Newmont Canada) liable for a sliding scale royalty on production from the Holt property, which was upheld in 2011 by the Ontario Court of Appeal. During the third quarter of 2013, the Company recorded a charge of $21, net of tax benefits of $10, related to an increase in the gold spot price at quarter end. The total recorded benefit for the first nine months of 2013, is $53, net of tax expense of $24, related to an overall decline in the gold spot price and an increase in discount rates. During the third quarter of 2012, the Company recorded an additional $33 charge, net of tax benefits of $2, to reflect higher gold prices offset by a decrease in future expected production at the Holt property due to new resource estimates published by St. Andrew. The total charges for the first nine months of 2012 were $104, net of tax benefits of $6.
Net operating cash used in discontinued operations of $14 and $12 in the first nine months of 2013 and 2012 respectively relates to payments on the Holt property royalty.

Options to purchase 3 and 2 million shares of common stock at average exercise prices of $48 and $57 were outstanding at September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted weighted average common shares because their exercise prices exceeded the average price of the Companys common stock for the respective periods presented.
Other outstanding options to purchase 1 million shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted weighted average common shares in the first nine months of 2013 because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Newmont is required to settle the principal amount of its 2014 and 2017 Convertible Senior Notes in cash and may elect to settle the remaining conversion premium (average share price in excess of the conversion price), if any, in cash, shares or a combination thereof. The effect of contingently convertible instruments on diluted earnings per share is calculated under the net share settlement method in accordance with ASC guidance. The conversion price exceeded the Companys share price for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, therefore no additional shares were included in the computation of diluted weighted average common shares. During the third quarter and first nine months of 2012, the Companys share price exceeded the conversion price, resulting in additional shares included in the computation of diluted weighted average common shares.
In February 2012, the holders of the Companys 2012 Convertible Senior Notes exercised their election to convert the notes. The Company elected to pay the $172 conversion premium with cash, and as a result no common shares were issued.

In September 2013, the Company approved an amendment to the terms of its Salaried Pension and Pension Equalization Plans, effective beginning July 2014. The Company announced these changes in early October, and as a result, re-measured its pension liability at September 30, 2013. The discount rate used for purposes of the re-measurement was 5.25%. The re-measurement resulted in a decrease of the pension liability of $165 ($107, net of tax).

NOTE 14 FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING
Fair value accounting establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; |
Level 2 | Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and |
Level 3 | Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). |
The following table sets forth the Companys assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by accounting guidance, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The fair values of the derivative instruments in the table above are presented on a net basis. The gross amounts related to the fair value of the derivatives instruments above are included in the Derivatives Instruments Note (see Note 15). All other Fair Value disclosures in the above table are presented on a gross basis.
The Companys cash equivalent instruments are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices. The cash equivalent instruments that are valued based on quoted market prices in active markets are primarily money market securities and U.S. Treasury securities.
The Companys marketable equity securities are valued using quoted market prices in active markets and as such are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The securities are segregated based on industry. The fair value of the marketable equity securities is calculated as the quoted market price of the marketable equity security multiplied by the quantity of shares held by the Company.

The Companys marketable corporate debt securities are mainly comingled fund investments that are classified within Level 2 with the unit of account considered to be at the fund level.
The Companys marketable debt securities also include investments in auction rate securities and asset backed commercial paper. The Company reviews the fair value for auction rate securities and asset backed commercial paper on a quarterly basis. The auction rate securities are traded in markets that are not active, trade infrequently and have little price transparency. Therefore, the investments are classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. See table below which sets forth a summary of the quantitative and qualitative information related to the significant unobservable inputs used in the calculation of the fair value.
The Companys net trade receivable from provisional copper and gold concentrate sales, subject to final pricing, is valued using quoted market prices based on forward curves and, as such, is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Companys derivative instruments are valued using pricing models and the Company generally uses similar models to value similar instruments. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit spreads, measures of volatility, and correlations of such inputs. The Companys derivatives trade in liquid markets, and as such, model inputs can generally be verified and do not involve significant management judgment. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The estimated value of the Boddington contingent royalty was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model which simulates future gold and copper prices and costs applicable to sales. This contingent royalty is capped at $100, and at June 30, 2012, the Company increased the accrual to the maximum of $100. The Boddington contingent royalty is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. See table below which sets forth a summary of the quantitative and qualitative information related to the significant unobservable inputs used in the calculation of the fair value.
The estimated fair value of the Holt sliding scale royalty was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model. The sliding scale royalty liability is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. See table below which sets forth a summary of the quantitative and qualitative information related to the significant unobservable inputs used in the calculation of the fair value.
The following table sets forth a summary of the quantitative and qualitative information related to the unobservable inputs used in the calculation of the Companys Level 3 financial assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013:

At September 30, 2013, assets and liabilities classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy represent 3% and 69%, respectively, of total assets and liabilities measured at fair value.
During the second quarter of 2013, Newmont recorded write-downs related to Property, plant and equipment, net. (See Note 5). The estimated fair values of Property, plant and mine development, net, Goodwill and Intangible assets used in determining the second quarter impairment followed the discounted cash flow approach. The discounted cash flow model used significant unobservable inputs and is, therefore, considered within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

NOTE 15 DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Companys strategy is to provide shareholders with leverage to changes in gold and copper prices by selling its production at spot market prices. Consequently, the Company does not hedge its gold and copper sales. The Company continues to manage certain risks associated with commodity input costs, interest rates and foreign currencies using the derivative market. All of the derivative instruments described below were transacted for risk management purposes and qualify as cash flow hedges.
Cash Flow Hedges
The foreign currency, diesel and forward starting swap contracts are designated as cash flow hedges, and as such, the effective portion of unrealized changes in market value have been recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income(loss) and are reclassified to earnings during the period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses from hedge ineffectiveness are recognized in current earnings.
Foreign Currency Contracts
Newmont utilizes foreign currency contracts to reduce the variability of the US dollar amount of forecasted foreign currency expenditures caused by changes in exchange rates. Newmont hedges a portion of the Companys A$ and NZ$ denominated operating expenditures which results in a blended rate realized each period. The hedging instruments are fixed forward contracts with expiration dates ranging up to five years from the date of issue. The principal hedging objective is reduction in the volatility of realized period-on-period $/A$ and $/NZ$ rates, respectively.
Newmont had the following foreign currency derivative contracts outstanding at September 30, 2013:

In order to reduce derivative exposure to a lower Australian dollar, in October 2013 the Company began closing out certain foreign currency contracts. As of October 25, 2013 the Company settled approximately A$2,100 in notional contracts for a net gain of approximately $46. These gains will be held in Other Comprehensive Income OCI as the hedged transactions, A$ denominated operating costs, are still probable of occurring over the original time period. The amount deferred in OCI will be recognized in earnings over a period of five years as the original hedge transactions occur. From time to time and depending upon business considerations and market conditions, the Company may consider closing out additional Australian dollar hedging contracts, or conversely, may enter into new Australian dollar hedging contracts.
Diesel Fixed Forward Contracts
Newmont hedges a portion of its operating cost exposure related to diesel consumed at its Nevada operations to reduce the variability in realized diesel prices. The hedging instruments consist of a series of financially settled fixed forward contracts with expiration dates up to three years.

Forward Starting Swap Contracts
During 2011, Newmont entered into forward starting interest rate swap contracts with a total notional value of $2,000. These contracts hedged movements in treasury rates related to a debt issuance that occurred in the first quarter of 2012. On March 8, 2012, Newmont closed its sale of $2,500 senior notes consisting of 3.5% senior notes due 2022 in the principal amount of $1,500 (10-year notes), and 4.875% senior notes due 2042 in the principal amount of $1,000 (30-year notes). As a result, the forward-starting interest rate swaps were settled for $362, of which $349 represented the effective portion of the hedging instrument included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The net proceeds from the debt issuance were adjusted by the settlement amount of the swap contracts and included as a financing activity in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow.

Provisional Copper and Gold Sales
The Companys provisional copper and gold sales contain an embedded derivative that is required to be separated from the host contract for accounting purposes. The host contract is the receivable from the sale of the gold and copper concentrates at the prevailing indices prices at the time of sale. The embedded derivative, which does not qualify for hedge accounting, is marked to market through earnings each period prior to final settlement.
London Metal Exchange (LME) copper prices averaged $3.21 per pound during the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared with the Companys recorded average provisional price of $3.16 per pound before mark-to-market adjustments and treatment and refining charges. LME copper prices averaged $3.35 per pound during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared with the Companys recorded average provisional price of $3.30 per pound before mark-to-market adjustments and treatment and refining charges. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, changes in copper prices resulted in a provisional pricing mark-to-market gains of $14 ($0.25 per pound) and loss of $10 ($0.06 per pound), respectively. At September 30, 2013, Newmont had copper sales of 59 million pounds priced at an average of $3.31 per pound, subject to final pricing over the next several months.
The average London P.M. fix for gold was $1,326 per ounce during the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared with the Companys recorded average provisional price of $1,330 per ounce before mark-to-market adjustments and treatment and refining charges. The average London P.M. fix for gold was $1,456 per ounce during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to the Companys recorded average provisional price of $1,452 per ounce before mark-to-market adjustments and treatment and refining charges. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, changes in gold prices resulted in a provisional pricing mark-to-market gains of $9 ($6 per ounce) and loss of $13 ($3 per ounce), respectively. At September 30, 2013, Newmont had gold sales of 50,000 ounces priced at an average of $1,327 per ounce, subject to final pricing over the next several months.

In September 2013, the Company purchased a 35.7% share of Novo Resources Corporation (Novo) for approximately $16. Novo owns a majority of the Beatons Creek discovery with Millennium Minerals in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. The Company accounts for this ownership interest as an equity method investment.
On July 8, 2013, the Company sold its investment in Canadian Oil Sands Limited for $587, resulting in a pretax gain of $280 recorded in Other income, net.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recognized impairments for other-than-temporary declines in value of $41 and $52, respectively, for marketable equity securities, including $36 in the three and nine months related to its holdings of Paladin Energy, Ltd. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company recognized impairments for other-than-temporary declines in value of $7 and $39 for marketable equity securities.
The following tables present the gross unrealized losses and fair value of the Companys investments with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, aggregated by length of time that the individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position:

While the fair values of the Companys investments in asset backed commercial paper and auction rate securities are below their respective cost, the Company views these declines as temporary. The Company intends to hold its investment in auction rate securities and asset backed commercial paper until maturity or such time that the market recovers and therefore considers these losses temporary.

NOTE 25 CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements are presented to satisfy disclosure requirements of Rule 3-10(e) of Regulation S-X resulting from the inclusion of Newmont USA Limited (Newmont USA), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Newmont, as a co-registrant with Newmont on debt securities issued under a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed under the Securities Act of 1933 under which securities of Newmont (including debt securities guaranteed by Newmont USA) may be issued (the Shelf Registration Statement). In accordance with Rule 3-10(e) of Regulation S-X, Newmont USA, as the subsidiary guarantor, is 100% owned by Newmont, the guarantees are full and unconditional, and no other subsidiary of Newmont guaranteed any security issued under the Shelf Registration Statement. There are no restrictions on the ability of Newmont or Newmont USA to obtain funds from its subsidiaries by dividend or loan.
At December 31, 2012, errors were identified in the previously reported condensed consolidating financial statements resulting from incorrectly applying the provisions of Rule 3-10(e) of Regulation S-X related to the presentation of the financial information of its subsidiary guarantor, Newmont USA. In the previously reported information, the Company presented Newmont USA on a consolidated basis with its non-guarantor subsidiaries and under Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X Newmont USA should have presented its investment in subsidiaries based upon its proportionate share of its non-guarantor subsidiaries net assets (similar to the equity method of accounting). In addition, the Company corrected the Newmont Mining Corporation column for investments in subsidiaries previously presented in the Eliminations column. The tables following the revised condensed consolidating financial statements illustrate the effects of the errors, which relate to the columns for Newmont Mining Corporation, Newmont USA, Other Subsidiaries and Eliminations, on previously reported condensed consolidating financial information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012.
The errors to the Newmont USA column for the incorrect presentation resulted in no change in previously reported line items for net income attributable to Newmont and stockholders equity. It did however have a significant impact on the previously reported cash balance, and cash flow from operations, investing and financing activities of Newmont USA as a result of the deconsolidation of its subsidiaries and the one line proportionate accounting pick up. Further, the Other Subsidiaries column changed by corresponding adjustments and to give effect to intercompany balances to include the non-guarantor subsidiaries of Newmont USA and the Eliminations column changes as a result of the above changes. In addition, the Company corrected an error in the Newmont Mining Corporation column related to stockholders equity and investment in subsidiaries. This was a result of a gain associated with a partial sale of a subsidiary that was previously included in the Eliminations column. The cash flow statement in the Newmont Mining Corporation column was revised to reflect earnings from subsidiaries, net of dividends received.

NEWMONT MINING CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
The Company concluded these errors were not material individually or in the aggregate to any of the previously issued financial statements taken as a whole. These errors had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of Newmont or any debt covenants and had no impact on the ability of Newmonts subsidiaries to dividend cash to Newmont. The impact of these corrections to the applicable prior year period is reflected in the revised financial information and notes below.
In addition to the above, in April of the current year the Company merged one of its subsidiaries into Newmont USA. As a result of this merger, the prior periods presented have been revised to reflect this change as if the transaction had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented in accordance with the accounting guidance for business combinations between entities under common control.

NEWMONT MINING CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
NOTE 26 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
General
The Company follows ASC guidance in accounting for loss contingencies. Accordingly, estimated losses from contingencies are accrued by a charge to income when information available prior to issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that a liability could be incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the contingency are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the contingency and estimated range of loss, if determinable, is made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.
Operating Segments
The Companys operating segments are identified in Note 3. Except as noted in this paragraph, all of the Companys commitments and contingencies specifically described in this Note 26 relate to the Corporate and Other reportable segment. The Yanacocha matters relate to the South America reportable segment. The Minera Penmont matters relate to the North America reporting segment. The PTNNT matters relate to the Indonesia reportable segment.
Environmental Matters
The Companys mining and exploration activities are subject to various laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations are continually changing and are generally becoming more restrictive. The Company conducts its operations so as to protect the public health and environment and believes its operations are in compliance with applicable laws and regulations in all material respects. The Company has made, and expects to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations, but cannot predict the full amount of such future expenditures.
Estimated future reclamation costs are based principally on legal and regulatory requirements. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $1,371 and $1,341, respectively, were accrued for reclamation costs relating to currently or recently producing mineral properties in accordance with asset retirement obligation guidance. The current portions of $55 and $62 at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, are included in Other current liabilities.
In addition, the Company is involved in several matters concerning environmental obligations associated with former mining activities. Generally, these matters concern developing and implementing remediation plans at the various sites involved. The Company believes that the related environmental obligations associated with these sites are similar in nature with respect to the development of remediation plans, their risk profile and the compliance required to meet general environmental standards. Based upon the Companys best estimate of its liability for these matters, $181 and $198 were accrued for such obligations at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. These amounts are included in Other current liabilities and Reclamation and remediation liabilities. Depending upon the ultimate resolution of these matters, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the liability for these matters could be as much as 125% greater or 6% lower than the amount accrued at September 30, 2013. The amounts accrued are reviewed periodically based upon facts and circumstances available at the time. Changes in estimates are recorded in Reclamation and remediation in the period estimates are revised.
Details about certain of the more significant matters involved are discussed below.
Newmont Mining Corporation
Empire Mine. On July 19, 2012, the California Department of Parks and Recreation (Parks) served Newmont, New Verde Mines LLC, Newmont North America Exploration Limited, Newmont Realty Company and Newmont USA Limited with a complaint for damages and declaratory relief under CERCLA, specifically for costs associated with water treatment at the Empire Mine State Park and for a declaration that Newmont is liable for past and future response costs, as well as indemnification to Parks. In 1975 Parks purchased the Empire Mine site in Grass Valley, California from Newmont to create a historic state park featuring the mining of the Empire Mine. Parks has operated the Empire Mine Site for over 35 years. Newmont intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit. Newmont cannot reasonably predict the outcome of this matter.

NEWMONT MINING CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
Newmont USA Limited100% Newmont Owned
Ross-Adams Mine Site. By letter dated June 5, 2007, the U.S. Forest Service notified Newmont that it had expended approximately $0.3 in response costs to address environmental conditions at the Ross-Adams mine in Prince of Wales, Alaska, and requested Newmont USA Limited pay those costs and perform an Engineering Evaluation/Cost Analysis (EE/CA) to assess what future response activities might need to be completed at the site. Newmont intends to vigorously defend any formal claims by the EPA. Newmont has agreed to perform the EE/CA. Newmont cannot reasonably predict the likelihood or outcome of any future action against it arising from this matter.
Hope Bay Mining Ltd.100% Newmont Owned
In July 2011 Environment Canada Enforcement Officers discovered a release of drill water containing calcium chloride on Hope Bay Mining Ltd. (HBML) property in Nunavut, Canada. Orbit Garant Drilling Inc. (Orbit) operated a diamond drill rig on the HBML property. On February 13, 2013, HBML received service of a summons and charges from a Judge for Nunavut alleging violation of the Fisheries Act relating to the release of drill water and alleged failure to report a discharge. Orbit operated the drill at issue in the summons. Total potential fines and penalties for proven charges of this nature could be up to $1. Newmont cannot reasonably predict the outcome of this matter.
Other Legal Matters
Minera Yanacocha S.R.L. (Yanacocha)51.35% Newmont Owned
Choropampa. In June 2000, a transport contractor of Yanacocha spilled approximately 151 kilograms of elemental mercury near the town of Choropampa, Peru, which is located 53 miles (85 kilometers) southwest of the Yanacocha mine. Elemental mercury is not used in Yanacochas operations but is a by-product of gold mining and was sold to a Lima firm for use in medical instruments and industrial applications. A comprehensive health and environmental remediation program was undertaken by Yanacocha in response to the incident. In August 2000, Yanacocha paid under protest a fine of 1,740,000 Peruvian soles (approximately $0.5) to the Peruvian government. Yanacocha has entered into settlement agreements with a number of individuals impacted by the incident. As compensation for the disruption and inconvenience caused by the incident, Yanacocha entered into agreements with and provided a variety of public works in the three communities impacted by this incident. Yanacocha cannot predict the likelihood of additional expenditures related to this matter.
Additional lawsuits relating to the Choropampa incident were filed against Yanacocha in the local courts of Cajamarca, Peru, in May 2002 by over 900 Peruvian citizens. A significant number of the plaintiffs in these lawsuits entered into settlement agreements with Yanacocha prior to filing such claims. In April 2008, the Peruvian Supreme Court upheld the validity of these settlement agreements, which the Company expects to result in the dismissal of all claims brought by previously settled plaintiffs. Yanacocha has also entered into settlement agreements with approximately 350 additional plaintiffs. The claims asserted by approximately 200 plaintiffs remain. In 2011, Yanacocha was served with 23 complaints alleging grounds to nullify the settlements entered into between Yanacocha and the plaintiffs. Yanacocha has answered the complaints and the court has dismissed several of the matters and the plaintiffs have filed appeals. All appeals were referred to the Civil Court of Cajamarca, which affirmed the decisions of the lower court judge. The plaintiffs have filed appeals of such orders before the Supreme Court. Some of these appeals were dismissed by the Supreme Court in favor of Yanacocha, and others are pending resolution. Yanacocha will continue to vigorously defend its position. Neither the Company nor Yanacocha can reasonably estimate the ultimate loss relating to such claims.
Administrative Actions. The Peruvian government agency responsible for environmental evaluation and inspection, Organismo Evaluacion y Fiscalizacion Ambiental (OEFA), conducts bi-annual reviews of the Yanacocha site. In 2011, 2012, and 2013, OEFA issued notices of alleged violations of OEFA standards to Yanacocha and Conga relating to past inspections. In April 2013, OEFA issued a finding and penalty with respect to three 2008 allegations in the amount of $0.1. OEFA issued notice of additional alleged violations of OEFA standards in October 2013. Total fines for all outstanding OEFA alleged violations could range from $0.1 to $69. Yanacocha and Conga are responding to all notices of alleged violations, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome of the agency allegations.

In 2009 five members of the El Bajio agrarian community in the state of Sonora (the Claimants), who claim rights over certain surface land in the proximity of the operations of Minera Penmont, lodged a legal claim with the Unitarian Agrarian Court of Hermosillo, Sonora to have Minera Penmont vacate an area of this surface land and associated claims. The land in dispute encompasses a portion of surface area where part of the operations of Dipolos, one of Minera Penmonts three operating mines, is located as well as the processing plant for both the Dipolos mine and the Soledad mine. Minera Penmonts mining concessions are held by way of separate title to that relating to the surface land. In September 2012, the Claimants obtained a ruling on the surface property dispute in their favor by the Mexican Supreme Court and in July 2013, a magistrate ordered Minera Penmont to vacate the property at issue, requiring cessation of production at the Dipolos operations. Minera Penmont has initiated legal proceedings to seek the expropriation of the disputed land in its favor, a process defined under Federal law in Mexico. Claimants also obtained temporary suspension of all of Minera Penmonts explosives permits. Because only Dipolos is subject to the dispute, Minera Penmont projects reinstatement of explosives permits at all other areas. Minera Penmont intends to vigorously contest this matter, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome.
PT Newmont Nusa Tenggara (PTNNT)31.5% Newmont Owned
Under the Batu Hijau Contract of Work, beginning in 2006 and continuing through 2010, a portion of PTNNTs shares were required to be offered for sale, first, to the Indonesian government or, second, to Indonesian nationals, equal to the difference between the following percentages and the percentage of shares already owned by the Indonesian government or Indonesian nationals (if such number is positive): 23% by March 31, 2006; 30% by March 31, 2007; 37% by March 31, 2008; 44% by March 31, 2009; and 51% by March 31, 2010. As PT Pukuafu Indah (PTPI), an Indonesian national, owned a 20% interest in PTNNT at all relevant times, in 2006, a 3% interest was required to be offered for sale and, in each of 2007 through 2010, an additional 7% interest was required to be offered (for an aggregate 31% interest). The price at which such interests were offered for sale to the Indonesian parties was the fair market value of such interest considering PTNNT as a going concern, as agreed with the Indonesian government. Following certain disputes and an arbitration with the Indonesian government, in November and December 2009, sale agreements were concluded pursuant to which the 2006, 2007 and 2008 shares were sold to PT Multi Daerah Bersaing (PTMDB), the nominee of the local governments, and the 2009 shares were sold to PTMDB in February 2010, resulting in PTMDB owning a 24% interest in PTNNT.
On December 17, 2010, the Ministry of Energy & Mineral Resources, acting on behalf of the Indonesian government, accepted the offer to acquire the final 7% interest in PTNNT. Subsequently, the Indonesian government designated Pusat Investasi Pemerintah (PIP), an agency of the Ministry of Finance, as the entity that will buy the final stake. On May 6, 2011, PIP and the foreign shareholders entered into a definitive agreement for the sale and purchase of the final 7% divestiture stake, subject to receipt of approvals from certain Indonesian government ministries. Subsequent to signing the agreement, a disagreement arose between the Ministry of Finance and the Indonesian parliament in regard to whether parliamentary approval was needed to allow PIP to make the share purchase. In July 2012, the Constitutional Court ruled that parliament approval is required for PIP to use state funds to purchase the shares, which approval has not yet been obtained. Further disputes may arise in regard to the divestiture of the 2010 shares.
Effective January 1, 2011, the local government in the region where the Batu Hijau mine is located commenced the enforcement of local regulations that purport to require PTNNT to pay additional taxes based on revenue and the value of PTNNTs contracts. In addition, the regulations purport to require PTNNT to obtain certain export-related documents from the regional government for purposes of shipping copper concentrate. PTNNT is required to and has obtained all export related-documents in compliance with the laws and regulations of the central government. PTNNT believes that the new regional regulations are not enforceable as they expressly contradict higher level Indonesian laws that set out the permissible taxes that can be imposed by a regional government and all effective export requirements. PTNNTs position is supported by Indonesias Ministry of Energy & Mineral Resources, Ministry of Trade, and the provincial government. To date, PTNNT has not been forced to comply with these new contradictory regional regulations. On February 4, 2011, PTNNT filed legal proceedings seeking to have the regulations declared null and void because they conflict with the laws of Indonesia. Subsequently, the Ministry of Home Affairs issued a decree declaring these local regulations to be contrary to Indonesian law and thus unenforceable. Further disputes with the local government could arise in relation to these regulations. PTNNT intends to vigorously defend its position in this dispute.

Additionally, in September 2011, WALHI brought an administrative law claim against Indonesias Ministry of Environment to challenge the May 2011 renewal of PTNNTs submarine tailings permit. PTNNT and the regional government of KSB (KSB) filed separate applications for intervention into the proceedings, both of which were accepted by the Administrative Court. KSB intervened on the side of WALHI, and PTNNT joined on the side of the Ministry of Environment. On April 3, 2012, the Administrative Court ruled in favor of the Ministry of Environment and PTNNT, finding that the Ministry of Environment properly renewed the permit in accordance with Indonesian law and regulations. WALHI appealed the verdict. On October 2, 2012, the High Administrative Law Court rejected WALHIs appeal, after which WALHI filed a notice to appeal the case to the Supreme Court. On May 28, 2013, the Supreme Court of Indonesia updated its website to provide that WALHIs appeal in this matter was rejected. The parties are still awaiting the written decision from the court. PTNNT will continue to defend its submarine tailings permit and is confident that the Ministry of Environment acted properly in renewing PTNNTs permit.
NWG Investments Inc. v. Fronteer Gold Inc.
In April 2011, Newmont acquired Fronteer Gold Inc. (Fronteer).
Fronteer acquired NewWest Gold Corporation (NewWest Gold) in September 2007. At the time of that acquisition, NWG Investments Inc. (NWG) owned approximately 86% of NewWest Gold and an individual named Jacob Safra owned or controlled 100% of NWG. Prior to its acquisition of NewWest Gold, Fronteer entered into a June 2007 lock-up agreement with NWG providing that, among other things, NWG would support Fronteers acquisition of NewWest Gold. At that time, Fronteer owned approximately 42% of Aurora Energy Resources Inc. (Aurora), which, among other things, had a uranium exploration project in Labrador, Canada.
NWG contends that, during the negotiations leading up to the lock-up agreement, Fronteer represented to NWG that Aurora would commence uranium mining in Labrador by 2013, that this was a firm date, that Fronteer was not aware of any obstacle to doing so, that Aurora faced no serious environmental issues in Labrador and that Auroras competitors faced greater delays in commencing uranium mining. NWG further contends that it entered into the lock-up agreement and agreed to support Fronteers acquisition of NewWest Gold in reliance upon these purported representations. On October 11, 2007, less than three weeks after the Fronteer-NewWest Gold transaction closed, a member of the Nunatsiavut Assembly introduced a motion calling for the adoption of a moratorium on uranium mining in Labrador. On April 8, 2008, the Nunatsiavut Assembly adopted a three-year moratorium on uranium mining in Labrador. NWG contends that Fronteer was aware during the negotiations of the NWG/Fronteer lock-up agreement that the Nunatsiavut Assembly planned on adopting this moratorium and that its adoption would preclude Aurora from commencing uranium mining by 2013, but Fronteer nonetheless fraudulently induced NWG to enter into the lock-up agreement.
On September 24, 2012, NWG served a summons and complaint on NMC, and then amended the complaint to add Newmont Canada Holdings ULC as a defendant. The complaint also names Fronteer Gold Inc and Mark ODea as defendants. The complaint seeks rescission of the merger between Fronteer and NewWest Gold and $750 in damages. In August 2013 the Supreme Court of New York, New York County issued an order granting the defendants motion to dismiss on forum non conveniens. Subsequently, NWG filed an appeal of the decision.
Newmont intends to defend this matter, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome.
Other Commitments and Contingencies
Tax contingencies are provided for in accordance with ASC income tax guidance (see Note 8).
The Company has minimum royalty obligations on one of its producing mines in Nevada for the life of the mine. Amounts paid as a minimum royalty (where production royalties are less than the minimum obligation) in any year are recoverable in future years when the minimum royalty obligation is exceeded. Although the minimum royalty requirement may not be met in a particular year, the Company expects that over the mine life, gold production will be sufficient to meet the minimum royalty requirements. Minimum royalty payments payable are $45 in 2013, $31 in 2014 through 2017 and $363 thereafter.

NEWMONT MINING CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
As part of its ongoing business and operations, the Company and its affiliates are required to provide surety bonds, bank letters of credit and bank guarantees as financial support for various purposes, including environmental reclamation, exploration permitting, workers compensation programs and other general corporate purposes. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were $1,807 and $1,755, respectively, of outstanding letters of credit, surety bonds and bank guarantees. The surety bonds, letters of credit and bank guarantees reflect fair value as a condition of their underlying purpose and are subject to fees competitively determined in the market place. The obligations associated with these instruments are generally related to performance requirements that the Company addresses through its ongoing operations. As the specific requirements are met, the beneficiary of the associated instrument cancels and/or returns the instrument to the issuing entity. Certain of these instruments are associated with operating sites with long-lived assets and will remain outstanding until closure. Generally, bonding requirements associated with environmental regulation are becoming more restrictive. However, the Company believes it is in compliance with all applicable bonding obligations and will be able to satisfy future bonding requirements through existing or alternative means, as they arise.
Newmont is from time to time involved in various legal proceedings related to its business. Except in the above described proceedings, management does not believe that adverse decisions in any pending or threatened proceeding or that amounts that may be required to be paid by reason thereof will have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition or results of operations.

Advancing our project pipeline
We remain focused on the progression of our next generation of mining projects. Approximately 40% of our 2013 capital expenditures will be allocated as development capital, including the Akyem project, the Phoenix Copper Leach project, the Turf Ventilation Shaft project and the Conga project, with the remaining 60% expected to be spent on sustaining capital. We manage our wider project portfolio to maintain flexibility to address the development risks associated with our projects including permitting, local community and government support, engineering and procurement availability, technical issues, escalating costs and other associated risks that could adversely impact the timing and costs of certain opportunities.
49
Our opportunities in the Execution phase of development comprise a significant part of the Companys growth strategy and include Akyem in Ghana, Phoenix Copper Leach and Turf Ventilation Shaft in Nevada and Conga in Peru, as described further below.
Akyem, Ghana. Construction activities were completed in September 2013 on schedule and on budget. Commissioning activities are ongoing and first gold pour occurred on October 4, 2013. Commercial production is on target for the fourth quarter of 2013. Gold production is expected to be 350,000 to 450,000 ounces per year at Costs applicable to sales of $500 to $650 per ounce for the first five years of the mines operating life of approximately 16 years. Capital costs are estimated at approximately $950, of which $920 have been incurred at September 30, 2013. At December 31, 2012, we reported 7.4 million ounces of gold reserves at Akyem.
Phoenix Copper Leach, Nevada. Construction activities were completed in September 2013 on schedule and on budget with the first copper cathode produced on October 1, 2013 and commercial production is targeted for the fourth quarter of 2013. Copper production is expected to be approximately 20 million pounds per year for the first five years of production at Costs applicable to sales of $1.75 to $2.00 per pound, which are expected to be reported under the by-product method of accounting. Capital costs are estimated at approximately $175, of which $156 have been incurred at September 30, 2013.
Turf Ventilation Shaft, Nevada. The Board of Directors authorized full funding for the Turf Vent Shaft project in April 2013. Additional ventilation supports profitable production growth from approximately 1.5 million tons of ore per year to more than 2 million tons, equating to an increase of production of approximately 100,000 to 150,000 ounces of gold per year over the 11 year mine life and lowers the life of mine average mine operating costs on a per ounce basis. Capital costs are expected to be $360 to $400, of which $109 have been incurred at September 30, 2013.
Conga, Peru. Due to local political and community protests, construction and development activities at the Conga project were largely suspended in November 2011. The results of the Peruvian Central Government initiated Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) independent review were announced on April 20, 2012 and confirmed our initial EIA met Peruvian and International standards. The review made recommendations to provide additional water capacity and social funds, which we have largely accepted. We announced our decision to move the project forward on a water first approach on June 22, 2012. Spending on the project in 2013 is anticipated to be approximately $230, focusing on building the Chailhuagon water reservoir, completing the last engineering activities, and accepting delivery of the main equipment purchases. Total property, plant and mine development was $1,606 at September 30, 2013. At December 31, 2012 we reported 6.5 million attributable ounces of gold reserves and 1,690 million attributable pounds of copper reserves at Conga. Construction of Conga and the implementation of the independent EIA review recommendations will continue provided it can be done in a safe manner with risk-adjusted returns that justify future investment. Should we be unable to continue with the current development plan at Conga, we may reprioritize and reallocate capital to development alternatives which may result in a potential accounting impairment.
We continue to advance earlier stage development assets through our project pipeline in our five operating regions. The exploration, construction and operation of these earlier stage development assets may require significant funding if they go into execution. Three of these projects are described further below:
Merian, Suriname. Feasibility study work for the Merian project began in the third quarter of 2011 and was completed in 2012, increasing our equity interest in the joint venture with Alcoa to 80%. Pending approval of the mineral agreement by the government of Suriname and Newmont and receipt of various related government of Suriname approvals, Newmonts Board of Directors will consider authorizing full funding for the development of the project. The development of the Merian project will allow Newmont to pursue a new district with upside potential and the opportunity to grow and extend the operating life of the South American region. Initial estimated gold production (on a 100% basis) of 350,000 to 450,000 ounces is expected per year, once Merian comes into production. At December 31, 2012, we reported 2.9 million attributable ounces of gold reserves at Merian.
Long Canyon, Nevada. The project is in the selection and confirmation stage of development and we continue to develop our understanding of Long Canyon and the district. We have submitted the Plan-of-Operations to the Bureau of Land Management in support of our Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and continue to progress the exploration program. A total of 85 kilometers of drilling was completed in 2012 and we anticipate an additional 65 kilometers to be drilled in 2013. Our intention is to bring the project into production in 2017.
Ahafo Mill Expansion, Ghana. The project is in the Feasibility Phase of development and consists of the design and construction of additional processing capacity at the Ahafo Mine in Ghana. The objective of the project is to increase processing capacity from the current 8 million tons of ore per year to 13 million tons, bringing profitable production from Ahafo forward. Pending Government approval of the EIS and associated project permits, Newmont may consider authorizing full funding for the development of the project sometime in 2014.

Consolidated Financial Results
Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders for the third quarter of 2013 was $408 ($0.82 per share) compared to income of $367 ($0.74 per share) for the third quarter of 2012. Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders for the first nine months of 2013 was a loss of $(1,296) ($(2.61) per share) compared to income of $1,136 ($2.29 per share) for the first nine months of 2012. Results for the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012 were impacted by lower realized gold and copper prices, the sale of Canadian Oil Sands, and lower production from Yanacocha and Batu Hijau. Results for the first nine months of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 were impacted by asset impairments in the second quarter; as well as lower production from Nevada, Yanacocha, Batu Hijau, and Ahafo, lower realized gold and copper prices, and the sale of Canadian Oil Sands.
Gold Sales decreased 21% in the third quarter of 2013 due to lower realized prices and lower sales volumes. Gold Sales decreased 17% in the first nine months of 2013 due to lower sales volume and realized prices. The following analysis summarizes consolidated gold sales:

Costs applicable to sales for gold decreased in the third quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 due primarily to lower operating costs and royalties. Costs applicable to sales for gold increased in the first nine months of 2013 due to the second quarter stockpile and leach pad write-downs. Costs applicable to sales for copper increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2013 compared to the same periods in 2012 due to a higher allocation of cost to copper at Batu Hijau partially offset by a lower allocation of costs to copper at Boddington. Costs applicable to sales for copper increased in the first nine months of 2013 due to the second quarter stockpile write-downs. For a complete discussion regarding variations in operations, see Results of Consolidated Operations below.
Amortization in the third quarter and first nine months of 2013 increased compared to the same period of 2012 due to the portion of amortization included in the cost of stockpiles and leach pads that was subject to the write-downs, higher mine development costs, and higher asset retirement costs. We expect Amortization to be $1,250 to $1,300 in 2013 including the impact of the stockpile and leach pad write-downs discussed above.

Exploration expense decreased $55 and $114 in the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2012 due to decreases in both brownfields and greenfields expenditures in all our regions. Exploration activities in a number of countries including Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea and Cote dIvoire have been discontinued. We expect Exploration expense of $250 to $300 in 2013, focused primarily on our brownfields programs at Carlin, Long Canyon and Phoenix in Nevada, La Herradura in Mexico, Jundee and Tanami in Australia and Ahafo in Africa, whereas in the greenfields programs the focus will be on Nevada, Suriname-French Guiana, Andes and West Africa.

We expect Advanced projects, research and development expenses of $250 to $300 in 2013, focused primarily on Long Canyon, underground exploration drifts in Nevada, the start-up of Akyem and Ahafo North in Africa, and the Verde bioleach demonstration project in South America.
General and administrative expense decreased by $3 and $4 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2012 due to lower labor costs. We expect General and administrative expenses of $180 to $230 in 2013.
Write-downs totaled $3 and $2,265 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, respectively. The write-down for the first nine months of 2013 was primarily due to a decrease in the Companys long-term gold and copper price assumptions in the second quarter to $1,400 per ounce and $3.00 per pound, respectively, combined with rising operating costs. These factors represented significant changes in the business environment, requiring the Company to evaluate for impairment. For purposes of this evaluation, estimates of future cash flows of the individual reporting units were used to determine fair value. The estimated cash flows were derived from life-of-mine plans, developed using long-term pricing reflective of the current price environment and managements projections for operating costs.
Other expense, net decreased by $47 in the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012 mainly due to lower Hope Bay care and maintenance costs, regional administration expenses, and restructuring costs in 2012, partially offset by community development. Other expense, net decreased by $117 in the first nine months of 2013 compared to the first nine months of 2012 mainly due to lower Hope Bay care and maintenance costs and regional administration expenses, partially offset by community development and higher transaction costs.
Other income, net increased by $238 in the third quarter of 2013 compared to the third quarter of 2012 and increased by $245 in the first nine months of 2013 compared to the first nine months of 2012 due to a gain on the sale of the Canadian Oil Sands investment and higher foreign currency exchange gain, partially offset by higher impairment of marketable securities and lower income from developing projects.
56
Interest expense, net increased $9 and $21 for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2012 due to decreased capitalized interest and higher drawdowns on the Corporate Credit Facility, as well as the issuance of the 2022 and 2042 Senior Notes on the first nine months of the current year. Capitalized interest decreased by $9 and $4 in the third quarter and first nine months of 2013, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2012 due to lower development project expenditures. We now expect Interest expense, net of $275 to $325 in 2013.
Income and mining tax expenses during the third quarter of 2013 resulted in an estimated expense of $154, for an effective tax rate of 26%. Estimated income and mining tax expense during the third quarter of 2012 was $228 for an effective tax rate of 32%. The lower effective tax rate on the income in the third quarter of 2013 is a result of tax planning related to the sale of the Canadian Oil Sands investment and the Canadian capital gains tax rate associated with the sale partially offset by a diluted benefit from percentage depletion.
During the first nine months of 2013, the estimated income and mining tax expense was $10, resulting in an effective tax rate of less than 0%. Absent the net impact of the asset impairment charges recorded in the prior quarter, the effective tax rate would have been 27%. Estimated income and mining tax expense during the first nine months of 2012 was $746 for an effective tax rate of 32%. The lower effective tax rate on the loss in the first nine months of 2013 is primarily due to the benefit related to tax planning on the sale of the Canadian Oil Sands investment and the Canadian capital gains tax rate associated with the sale.
A valuation allowance is provided for those deferred tax assets for which it is more likely than not that the related benefits will not be realized. In determining the amount of the valuation allowance, each quarter, we consider estimated future taxable income as well as feasible tax planning strategies in each jurisdiction to determine if the deferred tax assets are realizable. If it is determined we will not realize all or a portion of its deferred tax assets, we will place or increase a valuation allowance. Conversely, if we determine that we will ultimately be able to realize all or a portion of the related benefits for which a valuation allowance has been provided, all or a portion of the related valuation allowance will be reduced.
There are a number of factors that can potentially impact the Companys effective tax, including the geographic distribution of income, the non-recognition of tax assets, percentage depletion, changes in tax laws, and the impact of specific transactions and assessments. For a complete discussion of the factors that influence our effective tax rate, see Managements Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Newmonts Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed February 22, 2013.
Due to the factors discussed above and the sensitivity of the tax provision to these factors, it is expected that the Companys effective tax rate will fluctuate in future periods. We expect the 2013 consolidated tax expense to be approximately 0% to 5%, assuming an average realized gold price of $1,400 per ounce. Absent the net impact of the asset impairment charges in the first half of the year, we would expect an effective tax rate of 30-32%.
Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests decreased to a net loss of $2 in the third quarter and $172 in the first nine months of 2013 compared to a net income of $80 in the third quarter and $285 in the first nine months of 2012 as a result of decreased earnings at Batu Hijau and Minera Yanacocha as well as the TMAC transaction in March 2013.
Income (loss) from discontinued operations includes a reduction in the Holt property royalty liability as of September 30, 2013. During the third quarter of 2013, we recorded a charge of $21, net of tax benefits of $10, related to an increase in the gold spot price at quarter end. During the first nine months of 2013 we recorded a benefit from discontinued operations of $53, net of tax expense of $24, related to an overall decline in the gold spot price and an increase in discount rates. During the third quarter of 2012, we recorded an additional $33 charge, net of tax benefits of $2, to reflect a decrease in future expected production at the Holt property. The total charges for the first nine months of 2012 are $104, net of tax benefits of $6. Due to the nature of the sliding scale royalty calculation, changes in expected production and the gold price have a significant impact on the fair value of the liability.

Third quarter 2013 compared to 2012
Consolidated gold production decreased 1% due to lower production at Yanacocha and lower grade and recovery at Batu Hijau partially offset by higher production at Australia/New Zealand, Nevada, and Africa. Consolidated copper production decreased 2% due to lower grade and recovery at Boddington and lower throughput at Batu Hijau.
Costs applicable to sales per consolidated gold ounce sold decreased 6% due to lower direct operating costs of $76 and lower royalties. Costs applicable to sales per consolidated copper pound increased 11% due to additional stockpile write-downs related to copper at Batu Hijau.
Amortization increased 11% per consolidated gold ounce sold due to asset retirement cost additions at Yanacocha and lower production from Yanacocha and Batu Hijau. Amortization increased 9% per consolidated copper pound sold due to higher allocation of cost to copper and lower production.
First nine months 2013 compared to 2012
Consolidated gold production decreased 7% from lower grades at Nevada, Ahafo, Batu Hijau and lower mill and leach production from Yanacocha partially offset by higher production at Australia/New Zealand. Consolidated copper production decreased 4% due to processing lower grade stockpiles at Batu Hijau partially offset by higher copper grade at Boddington.
Costs applicable to sales per consolidated gold ounce sold increased 15% due to stockpile and leach pad write-downs, lower production from Nevada, Yanacocha, Batu Hijau, and Ahafo partially offset by higher production from Australia/New Zealand. Costs applicable to sales per consolidated copper pound sold increased 107% due to stockpile write-downs and lower production at Batu Hijau.
Amortization per consolidated gold ounce sold increased 30% due to the portion of the stockpile and leach pad write-downs that is associated with amortization, lower production from Nevada, Yanacocha, Batu Hijau, and Ahafo as well as higher asset retirement costs at Yanacocha, and additions to property, plant and equipment in North America late in 2012 and early 2013. Amortization increased 94% per consolidated copper pound sold due to the portion of the stockpile write-downs associated with amortization as well as lower production.
We expect attributable gold production of 4.8 to 5.1 million ounces at consolidated Costs applicable to sales per ounce of $750 to $825, including the stockpile and leach pad write-downs discussed above. We now expect copper production of 135 to 145 million pounds attributable to Newmont at consolidated Costs applicable to sales per pound of $4.05 to $4.40 in 2013, including the stockpile write-downs as discussed above.

Third quarter 2013 compared to 2012
Yanacocha, Peru. Gold production decreased 28% due to lower leach production as a result of placing lower grade leach ore from El Tapado Oeste partially offset by higher mill grade from El Tapado Oeste. Costs applicable to sales per ounce increased 14% due to higher mining costs related to the commencement of production at Cerro Negro and El Tapado Oeste in the fourth quarter of 2012 and leach pad write-downs at La Quinua, Yanacocha, and Maqui Maqui. Amortization per ounce increased 43% due to the portion of the leach pad write-down associated with amortization, lower production, and higher asset retirement costs.
First nine months 2013 compared to 2012
Yanacocha, Peru. Gold production decreased 25% due to lower mill and leach production associated with the completion of mining at El Tapado and certain areas at Chaquicocha during 2012. Costs applicable to sales per ounce increased 26% due primarily to a leach pad write-down and lower ounces produced partially offset by lower workers participation expense. Amortization per ounce increased 70% due to the portion of the leach pad write-down associated with amortization, lower production, and higher asset retirement costs.
We expect attributable gold production in South America of approximately 550 to 600 ounces at consolidated Costs applicable to sales per ounce of $650 to $700 in 2013, including the leach pad write-downs discussed above.

Third quarter 2013 compared to 2012
Boddington, Australia. Gold production increased 7% due to higher throughput and recovery partially offset by lower ore grade milled. Copper production decreased 6% due to lower mill grade. Gold Costs applicable to sales increased 11% per ounce due to a stockpile write-down partially offset by higher production. Copper Costs applicable to sales per pound was marginally lower than the prior year. Amortization decreased 14% per ounce and 7% per pound due primarily to the asset impairment during the second quarter.
Other Australia/New Zealand. Gold production increased 24% due to higher mill throughput and ore grade from underground sources at Tanami, higher throughput at Waihi, and higher grade and throughput at Kalgoorlie partially offset by lower grade at Jundee. Costs applicable to sales per ounce decreased 19% due to higher gold production from Tanami, Waihi and Kalgoorlie partially offset by lower production and higher operating costs at Jundee. Amortization per ounce increased 33% due to an increase in capitalized mine development at Jundee partially offset by higher production.
First nine months 2013 compared to 2012
Boddington, Australia. Gold production increased 3% due to higher mill grade and recovery partially offset by lower throughput. Copper production increased 4% due to higher mill grade. Gold Costs applicable to sales increased 21% per ounce due to stockpile write-downs. Copper Costs applicable to sales increased 14% per pound due primarily to stockpile write-downs partially offset by higher copper production. Amortization increased 3% per ounce and 2% per pound due to the portion of the stockpile write-down that is associated with amortization.
62
Other Australia/New Zealand. Gold production increased 9% due to higher mill throughput and higher ore grade milled at Tanami from higher underground ore availability and grades as well as higher throughput at Waihi partially offset by lower production from Kalgoorlie and Jundee. Costs applicable to sales per ounce increased 10% due to a stockpile write-down in the second quarter and higher operating costs at Jundee partially offset by higher production. Amortization per ounce increased 36% mainly due to higher capitalized mine development costs at Jundee partially offset by higher production.
We expect attributable gold production for Australia/New Zealand to be 1.6 to 1.7 million ounces at Costs applicable to sales per ounce of $1,000 to $1,100, including the stockpile write-downs discussed above. We now expect our attributable copper production to be 60 to 70 million pounds at consolidated Costs applicable to sales per pound of $2.75 to $2.95 in 2013, including the stockpile write-downs discussed above. The copper production outlook has been revised due to lower than expected mill throughput.

Third quarter 2013 compared to 2012
Batu Hijau, Indonesia. Gold production decreased 44% due to processing lower grade ore, lower recovery, and lower mill throughput. Copper production was in line with prior year quarter due to higher copper mill recovery offset by lower mill throughput. Total tons mined increased by 12% as Phase 6 waste removal continues as planned. Costs applicable to sales decreased 24% per ounce due to lower costs allocated to gold on a co-product basis, lower operating costs and royalties, partially offset by lower production. Costs applicable to sales increased 15% per pound due to higher costs allocated to copper on a co-product basis. Amortization decreased 20% per ounce and increased 15% per pound due to a higher allocation of costs to copper on a co-product basis.
First nine months 2013 compared to 2012
Batu Hijau, Indonesia. Gold production decreased 33% due to lower ore grade and lower gold mill recovery. Copper production decreased 7% due to lower ore grade partially offset by higher copper mill recovery. Total tons mined increased 9% as Phase 6 waste removal continues as planned. Costs applicable to sales increased 152% per ounce and 156% per pound due to the stockpile write-down in the second quarter and lower production. Amortization increased 180% per ounce and 162% per pound due to the portion of the second quarter stockpile and inventory write-downs associated with amortization.
63
We expect attributable gold production for Indonesia to be 20,000 to 30,000 ounces at Costs applicable to sales per ounce of $2,100 to $2,300, including stockpile and inventory write-downs discussed above. We now expect our attributable copper production to be 70 to 75 million pounds at consolidated Costs applicable to sales per pound of $4.70 to $5.10 in 2013, including stockpile and inventory write-downs discussed above. The copper production has been revised due to lower than expected mill throughput and grades.

Third quarter 2013 compared to 2012
Ahafo, Ghana. Gold production increased 10% due to higher mill recovery partially offset by lower grade. Costs applicable to sales per ounce decreased 9% due to higher ounces produced partially offset by higher mining and milling costs. Amortization per ounce decreased 12% due primarily to higher ounces produced.
First nine months 2013 compared to 2012
Ahafo, Ghana. Gold production decreased 7% due to lower mill grade partially offset by higher mill recovery. Costs applicable to sales per ounce decreased 3% from higher ore tons mined partially offset by higher royalties and lower ounces produced.
We expect gold production in Africa to be 625,000 to 675,000 ounces at Costs applicable to sales per ounce of $525 and $575 in 2013.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
Our foreign operations sell their gold and copper production based on U.S. dollar metal prices. Approximately 45% and 47% of our Costs applicable to sales were paid in local currencies during the third quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively. Approximately 49% and 45% of our Costs applicable to sales were paid in local currencies during the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, respectively. Variations in the local currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar at our foreign mining operations did not have a significant impact on our Costs applicable to sales per ounce, net of hedging gains, during the third quarter and first nine months of 2013 compared to the same periods in 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Provided from Operating Activities
Net cash provided from continuing operations was $1,175 in the first nine months of 2013, a decrease of $367 from the first nine months of 2012, primarily due to lower gold production and a lower average realized gold price partially offset by a net decrease in operating assets and liabilities. The decrease in net operating assets and liabilities of $481 in the first nine months of 2013 compared to the first nine months of 2012 is due to decreases in accounts receivable and other assets and increases to accounts payable and other accrued liabilities.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities decreased to $937 during the first nine months of 2013 compared to $2,451 during the same period of 2012, respectively. Additions to property, plant and mine development were as follows:

Capital expenditures in North America during the first nine months of 2013 primarily related to the construction of the Phoenix Copper Leach project, the development of the Turf Vent Shaft project, surface and underground mine development and infrastructure improvements in Nevada, as well as mill expansion capital in Mexico. Capital expenditures in South America were primarily related to the Conga and Merian projects, surface mine development, leach pad and other infrastructure improvements and equipment purchases. The majority of capital expenditures in Australia and New Zealand were for underground mine development, tailings facility construction, mining equipment purchases and infrastructure improvements. Capital expenditures in Batu Hijau were primarily for equipment and equipment component purchases. Capital expenditures in Africa were related to Akyem development, the Subika expansion project and the Ahafo Mill expansion project, as well as equipment purchases and surface mine development at Ahafo. We now expect 2013 consolidated capital expenditures to be $2,000 to $2,200 ($1,700 to $1,900 attributable to Newmont).

Other Liquidity Matters
At September 30, 2013, the Company had $1,475 in cash and cash equivalents, of which $1,264 was held in foreign subsidiaries and is primarily held in U.S. dollar denominated accounts with the remainder in foreign currencies readily convertible to U.S. dollars. At September 30, 2013, $463 of the consolidated cash and cash equivalents was attributable to noncontrolling interests primarily related to our Indonesian and Peruvian operations which is being held to fund those operations and development projects. At September 30, 2013, $324 in consolidated cash and cash equivalents ($209 attributable to Newmont) was held at certain foreign subsidiaries that, if repatriated may be subject to withholding taxes, which would generate foreign tax credits in the U.S. As a result, we expect that there would be minimal U.S. tax liability upon repatriation of these amounts after considering available foreign tax credits. All other amounts represent earnings that are taxed in the U.S. on a current basis due to being held in U.S. subsidiaries or non-U.S. subsidiaries that are flow-through entities for U.S. tax purposes.
We believe that our liquidity and capital resources from U.S. operations and flow-through foreign subsidiaries are adequate to fund our U.S. operations and corporate activities.
Our mining and exploration activities are subject to various federal and state laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. We have made, and expect to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations, but cannot predict the full amount of such future expenditures. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $1,371 and $1,341, respectively, were accrued for reclamation costs relating to currently or recently producing mineral properties.
In addition, we are involved in several matters concerning environmental obligations associated with former mining activities. Based upon our best estimate of our liability for these matters, $181 and $198 were accrued for such obligations at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. We spent $23 and $32 during the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, respectively, for environmental obligations related to the former, primarily historic, mining activities and have classified $18 as a current liability at September 30, 2013.
67
During the first nine months of 2013 and 2012, capital expenditures were approximately $69 and $132, respectively, to comply with environmental regulations. Ongoing costs to comply with environmental regulations have not been a significant component of operating costs.
For more information on the Companys reclamation and remediation liabilities, see Notes 4 and 26 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
For a discussion of Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements, see Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standard meaning prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Adjusted net income (loss)
Management of the Company uses Adjusted net income (loss) to evaluate the Companys operating performance, and for planning and forecasting future business operations. The Company believes the use of Adjusted net income (loss) allows investors and analysts to compare results of the continuing operations of the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries relating to the production and sale of minerals to similar operating results of other mining companies, by excluding exceptional or unusual items. Managements determination of the components of Adjusted net income (loss) are evaluated periodically and based, in part, on a review of non-GAAP financial measures used by mining industry analysts. Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders is reconciled to Adjusted net income (loss) as follows:

Costs applicable to sales per ounce/pound
Costs applicable to sales per ounce/pound are non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are calculated by dividing the costs applicable to sales of gold and copper by gold ounces or copper pounds sold, respectively. These measures are calculated on a consistent basis for the periods presented on both a consolidated and attributable to Newmont basis. Attributable costs applicable to sales are based on our economic interest in production from our mines. For operations where we hold less than a 100% economic share in the production, we exclude the share of gold or copper production attributable to the noncontrolling interest. We include attributable costs applicable to sales per ounce/pound to provide management, investors and analysts with information with which to compare our performance to other gold producers. Costs applicable to sales per ounce/pound statistics are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently.
Net attributable costs applicable to sales per ounce measures the benefit of copper produced in conjunction with gold, as a credit against the cost of producing gold. A number of other gold producers present their costs net of the contribution from copper and other non-gold sales. We believe that including a measure on this basis provides management, investors and analysts with information with which to compare our performance to other gold producers, and to better assess the overall performance of our business. In addition, this measure provides information to enable investors and analysts to understand the importance of non-gold revenues to our cost structure.
The following tables reconcile these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

All-In Sustaining Costs
Newmont has worked to develop a metric that expands on GAAP measures such as cost of goods sold and non-GAAP measures to provide visibility into the economics of our gold mining operations related to expenditures, operating performance and the ability to generate cash flow from operations.
Current GAAP-measures used in the gold industry, such as cost of goods sold, do not capture all of the expenditures incurred to discover, develop, and sustain gold production. Therefore, we believe that all-in sustaining costs and attributable all-in sustaining costs are non-GAAP measures that provide additional information to management, investors, and analysts that aid in the understanding of the economics of our operations and performance compared to other gold producers and in the investors visibility by better defining the total costs associated with producing gold.
All-in sustaining cost (AISC) amounts are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently as a result of differences in the underlying accounting principles, policies applied and in accounting frameworks such as in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), or by reflecting the benefit from selling non-gold metals as a reduction to AISC. Differences may also arise related to definitional differences of sustaining versus development capital activities based upon each companys internal policies.
The following disclosure provides information regarding the adjustments made in determining the All-in sustaining costs measure:
Cost Applicable to SalesIncludes all direct and indirect costs related to current gold production incurred to execute the current mine plan. It is accounted for on an accrual basis and excludes Amortization and Reclamation and remediation, which is consistent with our presentation of Costs Applicable to Sales (CAS) on the Statement of Consolidated Income. In determining All-in sustaining costs, only the CAS associated with producing and selling an ounce of gold is included in the measure. Therefore, the amount of gold CAS included in AISC is derived from the CAS presented in the Companys Statement of Consolidated Income less the amount of CAS attributable to the production of copper at our Boddington and Batu Hijau mines. The copper CAS at those mine sites is disclosed in Note 3 Segments that accompanies the Consolidated Financial Statements. The allocation of CAS between gold and copper at the Boddington and Batu Hijau mines is based upon the relative percentage of copper and gold sold during the period.
Remediation CostsIncludes accretion expense related to asset retirement obligations (ARO) and the amortization of the related Asset Retirement Cost (ARC) for the Companys operating properties recorded as an ARC asset. Accretion related to ARO and the amortization of the ARC assets for reclamation and remediation do not reflect annual cash outflows but are calculated in accordance with GAAP. The accretion and amortization reflect the periodic costs of reclamation and remediation associated with current gold production and are therefore included in the measure. The allocation of these costs to gold and copper is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and copper at the Boddington and Batu Hijau mines.
Advanced Projects and ExplorationIncludes incurred expenses related to projects that are designed to increase or enhance current gold production and gold exploration. We note that as current resources are depleted, exploration and advance projects are necessary for us to replace the depleting reserves or enhance the recovery and processing of the current reserves. As this relates to sustaining our gold production, and is considered a continuing cost of a mining company, these costs are included in the AISC measure. These costs are derived from the Advanced projects, research and development and Exploration amounts presented in the Companys Statement of Consolidated Income less the amount attributable to the production of copper at our Boddington and Batu Hijau mines. The allocation of these costs to gold and copper is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and copper at the Boddington and Batu Hijau mines.
General and AdministrativeIncludes cost related to administrative tasks not directly related to current gold production, but rather related to support our corporate structure and fulfilling our obligations to operate as a public company. Including these expenses in the AISC metric provides visibility of the impact that general and administrative activities have on current operations and profitability on a per ounce basis.
71
Other Expense, netIncludes costs related to regional administration and community development to support current gold production. We exclude certain exceptional or unusual expenses from Other expense, net, such as restructuring, as these are not indicative to sustaining our current gold operations. Furthermore, this adjustment to Other expense, net is also consistent with the nature of the adjustments made to Net income (loss) as disclosed in the Companys non-GAAP financial measure Adjusted net income (loss). The allocation of these costs to gold and copper is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and copper at the Boddington and Batu Hijau mines.
Sustaining CapitalWe determined sustaining capital as those capital expenditures that are necessary to maintain current gold production and execute the current mine plan. Capital expenditures to develop new operations, or related to projects at existing operations where these projects will enhance gold production or reserves, are considered development. We determined the breakout of sustaining and development capital costs based on a systematic review of our project portfolio in light of the nature of each project. Sustaining capital costs are relevant to the AISC metric as these are needed to maintain the Companys current gold operations and provide improved transparency related to our ability to finance these expenditures from current operations. The allocation of these costs to gold and copper is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and copper at the Boddington and Batu Hijau mines.

Operating margin per ounce/pound
Operating margin per ounce/pound are non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are calculated by subtracting the costs applicable to sales per ounce of gold and per pound of copper from the average realized gold price per ounce and copper price per pound, respectively. These measures are calculated on a consistent basis for the periods presented on a consolidated basis. Operating margin per ounce/pound statistics are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these measures differently. Operating margin per ounce/pound is calculated as follows:

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
(dollars in millions, except per ounce and per pound amounts).
Metal Prices
Changes in the market price of gold significantly affect our profitability and cash flow. Gold prices can fluctuate widely due to numerous factors, such as demand; forward selling by producers; central bank sales, purchases and lending; investor sentiment; the strength of the U.S. dollar; inflation, deflation, or other general price instability; and global mine production levels. Changes in the market price of copper also affect our profitability and cash flow. Copper is traded on established international exchanges and copper prices generally reflect market supply and demand, but can also be influenced by speculative trading in the commodity or by currency exchange rates.
Decreases in the market price of gold and copper can also significantly affect the value of our product inventory and stockpiles and it may be necessary to record a write-down to the net realizable value (NRV). NRV represents the estimated future sales price based on short-term and long-term metals prices, less estimated costs to complete production and bring the product to sale. The primary factors that influence the need to record write-downs of stockpiles and product inventory include short-term and long-term metals prices and costs for production inputs such as labor, fuel and energy, materials and supplies, as well as realized ore grades and recovery rates. The significant assumptions in determining the stockpile NRV for each mine site reporting unit at September 30, 2013 included production cost and capitalized expenditure assumptions unique to each operation, a long-term gold price of $1,400 per ounce, a long-term copper price of $3.00 per pound and an Australian to U.S. dollar exchange rate of $ 0.935.
The NRV measurement involves the use of estimates and assumptions unique to each mining operation regarding current and future operating and capital costs, metal recoveries, production levels, commodity prices, proven and probable reserve quantities, engineering data and other factors. A high degree of judgment is involved in determining such assumptions and estimates and no assurance can be given that actual results will not differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions.
Hedging
Our strategy is to provide shareholders with leverage to changes in gold and copper prices by selling our production at spot market prices. Consequently, we do not hedge our gold and copper sales. We have and will continue to manage certain risks associated with commodity input costs, interest rates and foreign currencies using the derivative market.
By using derivatives, we are affected by credit risk, market risk and market liquidity risk. Credit risk is the risk that a third party might fail to fulfill its performance obligations under the terms of a financial instrument. We mitigate credit risk by entering into derivatives with high credit quality counterparties, limiting the amount of exposure to each counterparty, and monitoring the financial condition of the counterparties. Market risk is the risk that the fair value of a derivative might be adversely affected by a change in underlying commodity prices, interest rates, or currency exchange rates, and that this in turn affects our financial condition. We manage market risk by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken. We mitigate this potential risk to our financial condition by establishing trading agreements with counterparties under which we are not required to post any collateral or make any margin calls on our derivatives. Our counterparties cannot require settlement solely because of an adverse change in the fair value of a derivative. Market liquidity risk is the risk that a derivative cannot be eliminated quickly, by either liquidating it or by establishing an offsetting position. Under the terms of our trading agreements, counterparties cannot require us to immediately settle outstanding derivatives, except upon the occurrence of customary events of default such as covenant breaches, including financial covenants, insolvency or bankruptcy. We further mitigate market liquidity risk by spreading out the maturity of our derivatives over time.
77
Cash Flow Hedges
We utilize foreign currency contracts to reduce the variability of the US dollar amount of forecasted foreign currency expenditures caused by changes in exchange rates. We hedge a portion of our A$ and NZ$ denominated operating expenditures which results in a blended rate realized each period. The hedging instruments are fixed forward contracts with expiration dates ranging up to five years from the date of issue. The principal hedging objective is reduction in the volatility of realized period-on-period $/A$ and $/NZ$ rates, respectively. We use diesel contracts to reduce the variability of our operating cost exposure related to diesel prices of fuel consumed at our Nevada operations. All of the currency, diesel and forward starting swap contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges of future expenditures, and as such, changes in the market value have been recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income. Gains and losses from hedge ineffectiveness are recognized in current earnings.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We had the following foreign currency derivative contracts outstanding at September 30, 2013:

The fair value of the A$ foreign currency operating derivative contracts was a net liability position of $82 at September 30, 2013 and a net asset position of $250 at December 31, 2012. The fair value of the NZ$ foreign currency derivative contracts was a net asset position of $2 at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
In order to reduce derivative exposure to a lower Australian dollar, in October 2013 we began closing out certain foreign currency contracts. As of October 25, 2013 we settled approximately A$2,100 in notional contracts for a net gain of approximately $46. These gains will be held in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) as the hedged transactions, A$ denominated operating costs, are still probable of occurring over the original time period. The amount deferred in OCI will be recognized in earnings over a period of five years as the original hedged transactions occur. From time to time and depending upon business considerations and market conditions, we may consider closing out additional Australian dollar hedging contracts, or conversely, may enter into new Australian dollar hedging contracts.
Diesel Price Risk

The fair value of the diesel derivative contracts was a liability position of $1 at September 30, 2013 and a net asset position of $1 at December 31, 2012.
78
Forward Starting Swaps
During 2011, we entered into forward starting interest rate swap contracts with a total notional value of $2,000. These contracts hedged movements in treasury rates related to a debt issuance that occurred in the first quarter of 2012. On March 8, 2012, we closed the sale of $2,500 senior notes consisting of 3.5% senior notes due 2022 in the principal amount of $1,500 (10-year notes), and 4.875% senior notes due 2042 in the principal amount of $1,000 (30-year notes). As a result, the forward-starting interest rate swaps were settled for $362, of which $349 represented the effective portion of the hedging instrument included in Accumulated other comprehensive income(loss). The net proceeds from the debt issuance were adjusted by the settlement amount of the swap contracts and included as a financing activity in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow.
Commodity Price Risk
Our provisional copper and gold sales contain an embedded derivative that is required to be separated from the host contract for accounting purposes. The host contract is the receivable from the sale of the gold and copper concentrates at the prevailing indices prices at the time of sale. The embedded derivative, which does not qualify for hedge accounting, is marked to market through earnings each period prior to final settlement.
London Metal Exchange (LME) copper prices averaged $3.21 per pound during the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared with the Companys recorded average provisional price of $3.16 per pound before mark-to-market adjustments and treatment and refining charges. LME copper prices averaged $3.35 per pound during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared with the Companys recorded average provisional price of $3.30 per pound before mark-to-market adjustments and treatment and refining charges. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, changes in copper prices resulted in a provisional pricing mark-to-market gains of $14 ($0.25 per pound) and loss of $10 ($0.06 per pound), respectively. At September 30, 2013, Newmont had copper sales of 59 million pounds priced at an average of $3.31 per pound, subject to final pricing over the next several months. Each $0.10 change in the price for provisionally priced sales would have an approximate $2 effect on our net income(loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders. The LME closing settlement price at September 30, 2013 for copper was $3.31 per pound.
The average London P.M. fix for gold was $1,326 per ounce during the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared with the Companys recorded average provisional price of $1,330 per ounce before mark-to-market adjustments and treatment and refining charges. The average London P.M. fix for gold was $1,456 per ounce during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to the Companys recorded average provisional price of $1,452 per ounce before mark-to-market adjustments and treatment and refining charges. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, changes in gold prices resulted in a provisional pricing mark-to-market gains of $9 ($6 per ounce) and loss of $13 ($3 per ounce), respectively. At September 30, 2013, Newmont had gold sales of 50,000 ounces priced at an average of $1,327 per ounce, subject to final pricing over the next several months. Each $25 change in the price for provisionally priced gold sales would have an approximately $1 effect on our net income(loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders. The London P.M. closing settlement price at September 30, 2013 for gold was $1,327 per ounce.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. |
During the fiscal period covered by this report, the Companys management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)). Based on such evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its reports is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
79
Changes in Internal Controls
The Company maintains a system of internal control over financial reporting that is designed to provide reasonable assurance that its books and records accurately reflect transactions and that established policies and procedures are followed. The Company is implementing an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system on a staged basis at its most significant subsidiaries around the world, excluding Indonesia. The Company began the implementation of the ERP system in North America during the second quarter of 2012 and continued with the implementation in South America during the third quarter of 2012, Australia/New Zealand during the fourth quarter of 2012 and Africa in the first quarter of 2013, which resulted in a change to its system of internal control over financial reporting. The Company is implementing the global ERP system to improve standardization and automation, and not in response to a deficiency in its internal control over financial reporting. The Company believes that the implementation of the ERP system and related changes to internal controls will enhance its internal controls over financial reporting while providing the ability to scale its business in the future. See Item 1A in the Companys most recently filed Form 10-K for risk factors related to the implementation and integration of information technology systems. The Company has taken the necessary steps to monitor and maintain appropriate internal control over financial reporting during this period of change and will continue to evaluate the operating effectiveness of related key controls during subsequent periods.

ITEM 4. | MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES |
At Newmont, safety is a core value and we strive for superior performance. Our health and safety management system, which includes detailed standards and procedures for safe production, addresses topics such as employee training, risk management, workplace inspection, emergency response, accident investigation and program auditing. In addition to strong leadership and involvement from all levels of the organization, these programs and procedures form the cornerstone of safety at Newmont, ensuring that employees are provided a safe and healthy environment and are intended to reduce workplace accidents, incidents and losses, comply with all mining-related regulations and provide support for both regulators and the industry to improve mine safety.
In addition, we have established our Rapid Response process to mitigate and prevent the escalation of adverse consequences if existing risk management controls fail, particularly if an incident may have the potential to seriously impact the safety of employees, the community or the environment. This process provides appropriate support to an affected site to complement their technical response to an incident, so as to reduce the impact by considering the environmental, strategic, legal, financial and public image aspects of the incident, to ensure communications are being carried out in accordance with legal and ethical requirements and to identify actions in addition to those addressing the immediate hazards.
The operation of our U.S. based mines is subject to regulation by the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the Mine Act). MSHA inspects our mines on a regular basis and issues various citations and orders when it believes a violation has occurred under the Mine Act. Following passage of The Mine Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006, MSHA significantly increased the numbers of citations and orders charged against mining operations. The dollar penalties assessed for citations issued has also increased in recent years.
81
Newmont is required to report certain mine safety violations or other regulatory matters required by Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 104 of Regulation S-K, and that required information is included in Exhibit 95 and is incorporated by reference into this Quarterly Report.
