Third Quarter 2021 Highlights (dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
•Net income: Reported Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders of $(8) or $(0.01) per diluted share, a decrease of $619 from the prior-year quarter primarily due to the Loss on assets held for sale in connection with the Conga mill assets, lower realized gold prices, lower gold sales volumes, unrealized losses on marketable and other equity securities, higher Costs applicable to sales, and higher reclamation and remediation charges partially offset by lower income tax expense.
•Adjusted net income: Reported Adjusted net income of $483 or $0.60 per diluted share, a decrease of $0.26 per diluted share from the prior-year quarter (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis).
•Adjusted EBITDA: Generated $1,316 in Adjusted EBITDA, a decrease of 21% from the prior-year quarter (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis).
•Cash Flow: Reported Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of continuing operations of $2,967 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, a decrease of 7% from the prior year, and free cash flow of $1,755 (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis).
•Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG"): Transitioned to a fully autonomous haulage fleet of 36 trucks at Boddington in Australia, which is expected to improve safety and long-term productivity; Newmont's COVID-19 related Global Community Support Fund approved a local economic resilience program in Ghana to support women owned businesses impacted by the pandemic in pivoting to a more resilient business model through training; supported the vaccine deployment by turning Newmont's Cajamarca office in Peru into a vaccine clinic.
•Attributable production: Produced 1.4 million attributable ounces of gold and 315 thousand attributable gold equivalent ounces from co-products.
•Financial strength: Ended the quarter with $4.6 billion of consolidated cash and $7.6 billion of liquidity; completed $114 of settled share repurchases from $1 billion buyback program; declared dividend for the third quarter of $0.55, an increase of 38% over the prior-year quarter.
Our global project pipeline
Newmont’s capital-efficient project pipeline supports stable production with improving margins and mine life. Our near-term development capital projects are presented below. Additional projects represent incremental improvements to production and cost guidance.
Ahafo North, Africa. The Board of Directors approved full funding for the Ahafo North project in July 2021. This project will deliver value through the open pit mining and processing of over three million ounces of gold over a 13-year mine life. The project is expected to add between 275,000 and 325,000 ounces per year for the first five years. Capital costs for the project are estimated to be between $750 and $850 with an expected construction completion date in the second half of 2023 and commercial production in early 2024. Development capital costs (excluding capitalized interest) since approval were $32, of which all costs related to the third quarter of 2021.
Tanami Expansion 2, Australia. This project secures Tanami’s future as a long-life, low cost producer with potential to extend mine life to 2040 through the addition of a hoisting shaft and supporting infrastructure to achieve higher production and provide a platform for future growth. The expansion is expected to increase average annual gold production by approximately 150,000 to 200,000 ounces per year for the first five years beginning in 2024 and is expected to reduce operating costs by approximately 10 percent. Capital costs for the project are estimated to be between $850 and $950 with an expected commercial production date in the first half of 2024. Development capital costs (excluding capitalized interest) since approval were $233, of which $38 related to the third quarter of 2021.
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.
COVID-19 Update
An outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. COVID-19 has since spread worldwide, posing public health risks across the globe and has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and workforce participation and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including a widely available vaccine in each of the countries where we operate, the duration and severity of the pandemic and related restrictions, all of which continue to be uncertain and cannot be predicted.

Table of Contents
In April 2020, we established the Newmont Global Community Support Fund, a $20 fund to help host communities, governments and employees combat the COVID-19 pandemic, of which approximately $14 has been distributed through September 30, 2021. The fund is designed to focus on employee and community health, food security and local economic resilience through partnerships with local governments, medical institutions, charities and non-governmental organizations to address the greatest needs with long-term resiliency and future community development in mind.
We have mobilized a COVID vaccine working group with representatives from across the globe. Newmont views vaccination as critical in the fight against COVID-19 and actively encourages our workforce to get vaccinated as they become eligible. We are working to support authorities, through our Global Community Support Fund, to improve the availability and deployment of vaccines to our workforce and host communities.
Impact on business and operations
Our operations have been affected by a range of external factors related to the COVID-19 pandemic that are not within our control. For example, in the first half of 2020, we temporarily placed Musselwhite and Éléonore in Canada, Peñasquito in Mexico, Yanacocha in Peru and Cerro Negro in Argentina into care and maintenance with each subsequently resuming operations during the second quarter of 2020. As of September 30, 2021, all sites were fully operational, including Cerro Negro and Tanami. Cerro Negro returned to full capacity during September 2021 after operating for more than a year at reduced levels due to COVID-related impacts. After temporarily being placed into care and maintenance in late June 2021 to protect our employees and nearby communities, align with country mandated travel restrictions and manage ongoing COVID-related impacts, Tanami returned to full capacity by the end of July 2021. Additionally, we continue to incur COVID-19 specific costs as a result of actions taken to protect against the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. For the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, COVID-19 specific costs incurred totaled $24 and $32, respectively.
For a discussion of the precautions we are taking to protect our workforce and nearby communities, while also taking steps to preserve the long-term value of our business, refer to "Health and Safety" within Part I, Item 1, Business on our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 18, 2021. For a discussion of COVID-19 related risks to the business, see Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors on our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 18, 2021.
Additionally, refer to "Consolidated Financial Results", "Results of Consolidated Operations", and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” within Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of this report for additional information about the considerations of COVID-19 on our business and operations.

NEWMONT 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 Corporation, a Delaware corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Newmont” or the “Company”) are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring 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 Newmont’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed on February 18, 2021 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 (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted.
References to “C$” refer to Canadian currency.
During the third quarter of 2021, Nevada Gold Mines LLC ("NGM"), the joint venture held with Barrick Gold Corporation (“Barrick”) of which the Company holds economic interests equal to 38.5%, entered into a definitive asset exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with i-80 Gold Corp. The transaction closed during October 2021 and pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, NGM (i) acquired the remaining 40% interest in the South Arturo property, (ii) obtained an option to acquire the adjacent Rodeo Creek exploration property, (iii) received contingent consideration of up to $50 on meeting specific production targets, and (iv) obtained the release of NGM bonds in exchange for i-80 bonding, in exchange for certain processing infrastructure, including an autoclave, and the Lone Tree and Buffalo Mountain properties. The valuation of NGM's controlling interest in the South Arturo property and related accounting resulting from the asset exchange is still in process. As a result of the transaction, the Company currently expects to recognize a significant gain, representing its 38.5% interest in NGM's gain, in the fourth quarter of 2021.
On May 17, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of the remaining 85.1% of GT Gold Corporation (“GT Gold”) for cash consideration, including related transaction costs, of $326. The acquisition, deemed to be an asset acquisition under U.S. GAAP, resulted in total consideration of $378, including non-cash consideration of $52. The non-cash consideration represents the fair value of the 14.9% GT Gold investment held by the Company prior to the acquisition and previously accounted for as marketable equity securities. The total consideration paid was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, which primarily consisted of mineral interests of $590 and a related deferred tax liability of $211.
In March 2020, the Company sold the Red Lake complex, previously included as part of the Company’s North America segment. As the sale was completed in the first quarter of 2020, there are no results for Red Lake for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the three months ended September 30, 2020. Refer to Note 9 for further information.
NOTE 2     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Risks and Uncertainties
As a global mining company, the Company’s revenue, profitability and future rate of growth are substantially dependent on prevailing metal prices, primarily for gold, but also for copper, silver, lead and zinc. Historically, the commodity markets have been very volatile, and there can be no assurance that commodity prices will not be subject to significant fluctuations in the future. A substantial or extended decline in commodity prices could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows, access to capital and on the quantities of reserves that the Company can economically produce. The carrying value of the Company’s Property, plant and mine development, net; Inventories; Stockpiles and ore on leach pads; Investments; Deferred income tax assets; and Goodwill are particularly sensitive to the outlook for commodity prices. A decline in the Company’s price outlook from current levels could result in material impairment charges related to these assets.
In addition to changes in commodity prices, other factors such as changes in mine plans, increases in costs, geotechnical failures, changes in social, environmental or regulatory requirements, impacts of global events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and management’s decision to reprioritize or abandon a development project can adversely affect the Company’s ability to recover its investment in certain assets and result in impairment charges.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a material impact on the global economy, the scale and duration of which remain uncertain. As of September 30, 2021, all sites were fully operational, including Cerro Negro and Tanami. Cerro Negro returned to full capacity during September 2021 after operating for more than a year at reduced levels due to COVID-related impacts. After temporarily being placed into care and maintenance in late June 2021 to protect our employees and nearby communities, align with country mandated travel restrictions and manage ongoing COVID-related impacts, Tanami returned to full capacity by the end of July 2021.
The impact of this pandemic could include placing additional sites into care and maintenance, significant COVID-19 specific costs, volatility in the prices for gold and other metals, logistical challenges shipping our products, delays in product refining and smelting due to restrictions or temporary closures, additional travel restrictions, other supply chain disruptions and workforce interruptions, including loss of life. Depending on the duration and extent of the impact of COVID-19, this could materially impact the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition and could result in material impairment charges to the Company’s Property, plant and mine development, net; Inventories; Stockpiles and ore on leach pads; Investments; Deferred income tax assets; and Goodwill.

NEWMONT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the accounting for and recognition and disclosure of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses. The Company must make these estimates and assumptions because certain information used is dependent on future events, cannot be calculated with a high degree of precision from data available or simply cannot be readily calculated based on generally accepted methodologies. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Securities and Exchange Commission Rules
Accounting for Income Taxes
In December 2019, Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2019-12 was issued to simplify the accounting for income taxes, eliminate certain exceptions within Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 740, Income Taxes, and clarify certain aspects of the current guidance to promote consistency among reporting entities. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures.
Accounting for Equity Securities, Investments and Certain Forward Contracts and Options
In January 2020, ASU No. 2020-01 was issued which clarifies the interaction in accounting for equity securities under ASC 321, investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting in ASC 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options accounted for under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures.
Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses
In May 2020, the SEC finalized its proposed updates to Rule 3-05 within Regulation S-X, Financial statements of businesses acquired or to be acquired, Rule 3-14, Special instructions for real estate operations to be acquired; Article 11, Pro Forma Financial Information; and other related rules and forms (the “Rules”). The Rules include amendments, which among other things: revise significance tests used to determine disclosure requirements; require the financial statements of the acquired business to cover only up to the two most recent fiscal years; permit the use of, or reconciliation to, International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board in certain circumstances; and amend certain pro forma financial information requirements. The Rules were adopted on January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Effects of Reference Rate Reform
In March 2020, ASU No. 2020-04 was issued which provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden on accounting for contract modifications caused by reference rate reform. This guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The guidance may be adopted over time as reference rate reform activities occur and should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is still completing its evaluation of the impact of ASU 2020-04 and plans to elect optional expedients as reference rate reform activities occur. In January 2021, ASU No. 2021-01 was issued which broadened the scope of ASU No. 2020-04 to include certain derivative instruments. The Company expects neither the guidance nor the subsequent update to have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures.
NOTE 3     SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has organized its operations into five geographic regions: North America, South America, Australia, Africa and Nevada, which also represent Newmont’s reportable and operating segments. The results of these operating segments are reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance. As a result, these operating segments represent the Company’s reportable segments. Notwithstanding this structure, the Company internally reports information on a mine-by-mine basis for each mining operation and has chosen to disclose this information in the following tables. Income (loss) before income and mining tax and other items from reportable segments does not reflect general corporate expenses, interest (except project-specific interest) or income and mining taxes. Intercompany revenue and expense amounts have been eliminated within each segment in order to report on the basis that management uses internally for evaluating segment performance. Newmont’s business activities that are not considered operating segments are included in Corporate and Other. Although they are not required to be included in this footnote, they are provided for reconciliation purposes.

NOTE 5     RECLAMATION AND REMEDIATION
The Company’s mining and exploration activities are subject to various domestic and international 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 to protect public health and the 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 and remediation costs are based principally on current legal and regulatory requirements.
The Company’s Reclamation and remediation expense consisted of:

(1)Of the $44 addition, $21 is primarily due to revisions to estimated construction costs of the water treatment plant at Midnite Mine and $23 is primarily due to higher estimated closure cost arising from recent tailings management review and monitoring requirements set forth by the GISTM.
The current portion of reclamation liabilities was $157 and $164 at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and was included in Other current liabilities. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $3,655 and $3,555, respectively, were accrued as the non-current portion of the reclamation obligations relating to operating properties and formerly operating properties that have entered the closure phase and have no substantive future economic value and are included in Reclamation and remediation liabilities.
The Company is also involved in several matters concerning environmental remediation obligations associated with former, primarily historic, mining activities. Generally, these matters concern developing and implementing remediation plans at the various sites involved. The current portion of remediation liabilities was $53 and $50 at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and was included in Other current liabilities. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $282 and $263, respectively, were accrued as the non-current portion of the environmental remediation obligations and included in 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 45% greater or 0% lower than the amount accrued at September 30, 2021. 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.
Included in Other non-current assets at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are $56 and $56 respectively, of non-current restricted cash held for purposes of settling reclamation and remediation obligations. Of the amounts at September 30, 2021, $48 was related to the Ahafo and Akyem mines in Ghana, Africa and $6 related to NGM in Nevada, United States and $2 was related to the Midnite mine site in Washington, United States. Of the amounts at December 31, 2020, $48 was related to the Ahafo and Akyem mines in Ghana, Africa, $6 related to NGM in Nevada, United States and $2 was related to the Midnite mine site in Washington, United States.
Included in Other non-current assets at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $38 and $38, respectively, of non-current restricted investments, which are legally pledged for purposes of settling reclamation and remediation obligations. Of the amounts at September 30, 2021, $14 is related to the Midnite mine site and $24 is related to San Jose Reservoir. Of the amounts at December 31, 2020, $14 is related to the Midnite mine site and $24 is related to San Jose Reservoir.
Refer to Notes 18 and 21 for further discussion of reclamation and remediation matters.

NOTE 7     LOSS ON ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
The Company has been evaluating alternative uses for the Conga equipment and assets, including sale to a third party. Consequently, in the third quarter of 2021, the Company entered into a binding agreement to sell certain equipment and assets originally acquired for the Conga project in Peru within our South America segment (the "Conga mill assets") for total cash proceeds of $68. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the sale is expected to close upon the delivery of the assets and receipt of the final payment at which time title and control of the assets will transfer, currently expected to occur within approximately one year. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has received payments of $17 included in Other current liabilities.
Prior to entering the binding agreement, the Conga mill assets, which were otherwise expected to be used in future operations associated with the long-term development of the Conga project, had a carrying value of $593 included in Property, plant and mine development, net. Upon entering the binding agreement, the Conga mill assets were reclassified as held for sale, included in Other current assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2021, and remeasured at fair value less costs to sell. Refer to Note 13 for further information. As a result, a loss of $571 was recognized and included in Loss on assets held for sale within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Subsequent to the loss recognized in the third quarter of 2021, the remaining total assets at Conga as of September 30, 2021 was approximately $900. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has not identified events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the remaining carrying value of the Conga project is not recoverable. Although the Company has entered into the binding agreement to sell the Conga mill assets, it will continue to evaluate long-term options to progress development of the Conga project.

NOTE 13 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, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability and model-based valuation techniques (e.g. the Black-Scholes model) for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; 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 tables set forth the Company’s 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.

(1)Marketable equity securities includes warrants reported in the Maverix Metals Inc. equity method investment balance of $9 and $14 at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
(2)Debt is carried at amortized cost. The outstanding carrying value was $5,482 and $6,031 at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The fair value measurement of debt was based on an independent third-party pricing source.
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 derivative instruments above are immaterial. All other fair value disclosures in the above table are presented on a gross basis.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash (which includes restricted cash and cash equivalents) are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices in active markets and are primarily money market securities and U.S. Treasury securities.
The Company’s net trade receivables primarily result from provisional metal concentrate sales, which contain an embedded derivative and are subject to final pricing, are valued using quoted market prices based on forward curves for the particular metal. As the contracts themselves are not traded on an exchange, these receivables are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Company's assets held for sale consist of the Conga mill assets to be sold under a binding agreement entered into during the third quarter of 2021. The assets were measured to fair value based on the negotiated sale price of $68 less costs to sell. The assets are classified as non-recurring within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Refer to Note 7 for further information.
The Company’s marketable and other equity securities without readily determinable fair values primarily consists of the Company’s ownership in MARA and warrants in publicly traded companies. The ownership in MARA is accounted for under the measurement alternative and is classified as a non-recurring Level 3 investment within the fair value hierarchy. Warrants are valued using a Black-Scholes model using quoted market prices in active markets of the underlying securities. As the contracts themselves are not traded on the exchange, these equity securities are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Company’s restricted marketable debt securities are primarily U.S. government issued bonds and international bonds. The Company’s South American debt securities are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, using published market prices of actively traded securities. The Company’s North American debt securities are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as they are valued using pricing models which are based on prices of similar, actively traded securities.
The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration assets and liabilities are determined using discounted cash flow models. The contingent consideration assets and liabilities consist of financial instruments that meet the definition of a derivative, but are not designated for hedge accounting under ASC 815. The assets and liabilities are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Increases in the discount rate will result in a decrease in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration assets and liabilities.
The Company’s derivative instruments consist of fixed forward contracts. These 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, forward curves, measures of volatility, and correlations of such inputs. The Company’s 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 Company’s liability-classified stock-based compensation awards consist of cash-settled Goldcorp share awards which become payable in cash on the vesting date. These awards are valued each reporting period based on the quoted Newmont stock price. As the awards themselves are not traded on the exchange, they are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

During the third quarter 2020, the Company purchased an option from Kirkland for the mining and mineral rights subject to the Holt royalty obligation ("Holt option") for $75, which resulted in a downward revision to future production scenarios of the Holt mine to nil and effectively reduced the Holt royalty obligation to zero. The Company has the right to exercise the Holt option and acquire ownership to the mineral interests subject to the Holt royalty obligation in the event Kirkland intends to resume operations at the Holt mine. Kirkland has the right to assume the Company’s Holt royalty obligation at any time, in which case the Holt option would terminate. The net effect of the Holt option structure is that Kirkland cannot resume operations and process minerals subject to the Holt royalty obligation unless it also assumes the obligation.

NOTE 21     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
General
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 Company’s operating and reportable segments are identified in Note 3. Except as noted in this paragraph, all of the Company’s commitments and contingencies specifically described herein are included in Corporate and Other. The Yanacocha matters relate to the South America reportable segment. The Newmont Ghana Gold and Newmont Golden Ridge matters relate to the Africa reportable segment. The Mexico tax matter relates to the North America reportable segment.
Environmental Matters
Refer to Note 5 for further information regarding reclamation and remediation. Details about two significant matters are discussed below.
Minera Yanacocha S.R.L. - 51.35% Newmont Owned
In early 2015 and again in June 2017, the Peruvian government agency responsible for certain environmental regulations, the Ministry of the Environment (“MINAM”), issued proposed modifications to water quality criteria for designated beneficial uses which apply to mining companies, including Yanacocha. These criteria modified the in-stream water quality criteria pursuant to which Yanacocha has been designing water treatment processes and infrastructure. In December 2015, MINAM issued the final regulation that modified the water quality standards. These Peruvian regulations allow time to formulate a compliance plan and make any necessary changes to achieve compliance.
In February 2017, Yanacocha submitted a modification to its previously approved compliance achievement plan to the Mining Ministry (“MINEM”). The Company did not receive a response or comments to this submission until April 2021 and is now in the process of updating its compliance achievement plan to address these comments. During this interim period, Yanacocha separately submitted an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) modification considering the ongoing operations and the projects to be developed and obtained authorization from MINEM for such projects. This authorization included a deadline for compliance with the modified water quality criteria by January 2024. Consequently, part of the Company response to MINEM will include a request for an extension of time for coming into full compliance with the new regulations. In the event that MINEM does not grant Yanacocha an extension of the previously authorized timeline for, and agree to, the updated compliance achievement plan, fines and penalties relating to non-compliance may result beyond January 2024.
The Company currently operates five water treatment plants at Yanacocha that have been and currently meet all currently applicable water discharge requirements. The Company is currently conducting detailed studies to better estimate water management and other closure activities that will ensure water quality and quantity discharge requirements, including the modifications promulgated by MINAM, as referenced above, will be met. This also includes performing a comprehensive update to the Yanacocha reclamation plan

NEWMONT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
to address changes in closure activities and estimated closure costs while preserving optionality for potential future projects at Yanacocha. These ongoing studies, which will extend beyond the current year, were progressed in the third quarter of 2021 as the study team continued to evaluate and revise assumptions and estimated costs of potential changes to the reclamation plan. The potential changes are currently undergoing review and remain subject to revision, therefore, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate a change to the reclamation obligation as of September 30, 2021. However, based on the work progressed in the third quarter and the resulting preliminary findings, the Company currently expects to make revisions to the reclamation plan that, should these findings be confirmed, would result in material increases to the cost of water treatment plant construction, water treatment operating costs and other costs associated with the closure plan.
In conjunction with the Company’s annual update process for all asset retirement obligations, the Company expects to record an adjustment to the Yanacocha reclamation liability in the fourth quarter of 2021 based on the planned progress of the closure studies. As related activities are progressed, it is expected that the preliminary findings, if confirmed, could result in a material increase in the reclamation obligation at Yanacocha of up to approximately $1.6 billion, primarily related to the upfront construction of water treatment plants and the related annual operating costs assumed over the extended closure period, with a corresponding non-cash charge to reclamation expense related to operations no longer in production.
Dawn Mining Company LLC (“Dawn”) - 58.19% Newmont Owned
Midnite mine site and Dawn mill site. Dawn previously leased an open pit uranium mine, currently inactive, on the Spokane Indian Reservation in the State of Washington. The mine site is subject to regulation by agencies of the U.S. Department of Interior (the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Bureau of Land Management), as well as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”).
As per the Consent Decree approved by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Washington on January 17, 2012, the following actions were required of Newmont, Dawn, the Department of the Interior and the EPA: (i) Newmont and Dawn would design, construct and implement the cleanup plan selected by the EPA in 2006 for the Midnite mine site; (ii) Newmont and Dawn would reimburse the EPA for its past costs associated with overseeing the work; (iii) the Department of the Interior would contribute a lump sum amount toward past EPA costs and future costs related to the cleanup of the Midnite mine site; (iv) Newmont and Dawn would be responsible for all future EPA oversight costs and Midnite mine site cleanup costs; and (v) Newmont would post a surety bond for work at the site.
During 2012, the Department of Interior contributed its share of past EPA costs and future costs related to the cleanup of the Midnite mine site in a lump sum payment of $42, which Newmont classified as restricted assets with interest on the Consolidated Balance Sheets for all periods presented. In 2016, Newmont completed the remedial design process (with the exception of the new water treatment plant (“WTP”), which was awaiting the approval of the new National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“NPDES”) permit). Subsequently, the new NPDES permit was received in 2017 and the WTP design commenced in 2018. The EPA is assessing the WTP design. Newmont continues to manage the remediation project during the 2021 construction season.
The Dawn mill site is regulated by the Washington Department of Health and is in the process of being closed. Remediation at the Dawn mill site began in 2013. The Tailing Disposal Area 1-4 reclamation earthworks component was completed during 2017 with the embankment erosion protection completed in the second quarter of 2018. The remaining closure activity will consist primarily of addressing groundwater issues and evaporating the remaining balance of process water on site.
The remediation liability for the Midnite (Dawn) mine site is approximately $175 at September 30, 2021.
Other Legal Matters
Minera Yanacocha S.R.L. - 51.35% Newmont Owned
Administrative Actions. The Peruvian government agency responsible for environmental evaluation and inspection, Organismo Evaluación y Fiscalización Ambiental (“OEFA”), conducts periodic reviews of the Yanacocha site. From 2011 to the third quarter of 2021, OEFA issued notices of alleged violations of OEFA standards to Yanacocha and Conga relating to past inspections. The water authority that is in charge of supervising the proper water administration has also issued notices of alleged regulatory violations in previous years. The experience with OEFA and the water authority is that in the case of a finding of violation, remedial action is often the outcome rather than a significant fine. The alleged OEFA violations currently active range from zero to 108.11 units and the water authority alleged violations range from zero to 10 units, with each unit having a potential fine equivalent to approximately $.001100 based on current exchange rates, with a total potential fine amount for outstanding matters of $— to $0.13. Yanacocha is responding to all notices of alleged violations, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome of the agency allegations.
Conga Project Constitutional Claim. On October 18, 2012, Marco Antonio Arana Zegarra filed a constitutional claim against the Ministry of Energy and Mines and Yanacocha requesting the Court to order the suspension of the Conga project as well as to declare not applicable the October 27, 2010, directorial resolution approving the Conga project Environmental Impact Assessment (“EIA”). On October 23, 2012, a Cajamarca judge dismissed the claims based on formal grounds finding that: (i) plaintiffs had not exhausted previous administrative proceedings; (ii) the directorial resolution approving the Conga EIA is valid, and was not challenged when issued in the administrative proceedings; (iii) there was inadequate evidence to conclude that the Conga project is a threat to the constitutional right of living in an adequate environment; and (iv) the directorial resolution approving the Conga project EIA does not

(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
guarantee that the Conga project will proceed, so there was no imminent threat to be addressed by the Court. The plaintiffs appealed the dismissal of the case. The Civil Court of the Superior Court of Cajamarca confirmed the above mentioned resolution and the plaintiff presented an appeal. On March 13, 2015, the Constitutional Court published its ruling stating that the case should be sent back to the first court with an order to formally admit the case and start the judicial process in order to review the claim and the proofs presented by the plaintiff. Yanacocha has answered the claim. Neither the Company nor Yanacocha can reasonably predict the outcome of this litigation.
Yanacocha Tax Dispute. In 2000, Yanacocha paid Buenaventura and Minas Conga S.R.L. a total of $29 to assume their respective contractual positions in mining concession agreements with Chaupiloma Dos de Cajamarca S.M.R.L. The contractual rights allowed Yanacocha the opportunity to conduct exploration on the concessions, but were not a purchase of the concessions. The tax authority alleged that the payments to Buenaventura and Minas Conga S.R.L. were acquisitions of mining concessions requiring the amortization of the amounts under the Peru Mining Law over the life of the mine. Yanacocha expensed the amounts at issue in the initial year since the payments were not for the acquisition of a concession but rather these expenses represented the payment of an intangible and therefore, were amortizable in a single year or proportionally for up to ten years according to Income Tax Law. In 2010, the tax court in Peru ruled in favor of Yanacocha and the tax authority appealed the issue to the judiciary. The first appellate court confirmed the ruling of the tax court in favor of Yanacocha. However, in November 2015, a Superior Court in Peru made an appellate decision overturning the two prior findings in favor of Yanacocha. Yanacocha appealed the Superior Court ruling to the Peru Supreme Court. In January 2019, the Peru Supreme Court issued notice that three judges supported the position of the tax authority and two judges supported the position of Yanacocha. Because four votes are required for a final decision, an additional judge was selected to issue a decision and the parties conducted oral arguments in April 2019. In February 2020, the additional judge ruled in favor of the tax authority, finalizing a decision of the Peru Supreme Court against Yanacocha. As a result of the decision, the company has recognized the amount of $29. However, Yanacocha filed two constitutional actions in 2020 and one additional legal claim in 2021, objecting to potential excessive interest and duplicity of criteria of up to $51, $73.3 and $68.6, respectively. In March 2021, in one of the constitutional actions, Yanacocha’s request for an injunction to suspend the collection of interest was denied. The matter was sent back to the tax authority, which issued a resolution with an update of the total amount due of approximately $80.15. Yanacocha appealed the tax authority’s resolution and, in October 2021, the tax court denied the appeal. As a result, the administrative case went back to SUNAT for collection and the company paid the amount due in October 2021. The company continues to pursue additional legal options and it is not possible to fully predict the outcome of this litigation.
Newmont Corporation, as well as Newmont Canada Corporation, and Newmont Canada FN Holdings ULC – 100% Newmont Owned
Kirkland Lake Gold Inc. (“Kirkland”) owns certain mining and mineral rights in northeastern Ontario, Canada, referred to here as the Holt-McDermott property, on which it suspended operations in April 2020. A subsidiary of the Company has a retained royalty obligation (“Holt royalty obligation”) to Royal Gold, Inc. (“Royal Gold”) for production on the Holt-McDermott property. In August 2020, the Company and Kirkland signed a Strategic Alliance Agreement (the “Kirkland Agreement”). As part of the Kirkland Agreement, the Company purchased an option (the “Holt option”) for $75 from Kirkland for the mining and mineral rights subject to the Holt royalty obligation. The Company has the right to exercise the Holt option and acquire ownership to the mineral interests subject to the Holt royalty obligation in the event Kirkland intends to resume operations and process material subject to the obligation. Kirkland has the right to assume the Company’s Holt royalty obligation at any time, in which case the Holt option would terminate.
On August 16, 2021, International Royalty Corporation (“IRC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Royal Gold, filed an action in the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia against Newmont Corporation, Newmont Canada Corporation, Newmont Canada FN Holdings ULC, and Kirkland. IRC alleges the Kirkland Agreement is oppressive to the interests of Royal Gold under the Nova Scotia Companies Act and the Canada Business Corporations Act, and that, by entering into the Kirkland Agreement, Newmont breached its contractual obligations to Royal Gold. IRC seeks declaratory relief, and $350 in alleged royalty payments that it claims Newmont expected to pay under the Holt royalty obligation, but for the Kirkland Agreement. The Company intends to vigorously defend this matter, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome.
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 Fronteer’s acquisition of NewWest Gold. At that time, Fronteer owned approximately 47% 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, among other things, that Aurora would commence uranium mining in Labrador by 2013, that this was a firm date, that Aurora faced no current environmental issues in Labrador and that Aurora’s competitors faced delays in commencing uranium mining. NWG further contends that it entered into the lock-up agreement and agreed to support Fronteer’s 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,
36

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
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 the Company, and then amended the complaint to add Newmont Canada Holdings ULC as a defendant. The complaint also named Fronteer Gold Inc. and Mark O’Dea as defendants. The complaint sought 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 a notice of appeal of the decision and then a notice of dismissal of the appeal on March 24, 2014.
On February 26, 2014, NWG filed a lawsuit in Ontario Superior Court of Justice against Fronteer Gold Inc., Newmont Mining Corporation, Newmont Canada Holdings ULC, Newmont FH B.V. and Mark O’Dea. The Ontario complaint is based upon substantially the same allegations contained in the New York lawsuit with claims for fraudulent and negligent misrepresentation. NWG seeks disgorgement of profits since the close of the NWG deal on September 24, 2007 and damages in the amount of C$1,200. Newmont, along with other defendants, served the plaintiff with its statement of defense on October 17, 2014. Newmont intends to vigorously defend this matter, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome.
Newmont Ghana Gold Limited and Newmont Golden Ridge Limited - 100% Newmont Owned
On December 24, 2018, two individual plaintiffs, who are members of the Ghana Parliament (“Plaintiffs”), filed a writ to invoke the original jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of Ghana. On January 16, 2019, Plaintiffs filed the Statement of Plaintiff’s Case outlining the details of the Plaintiff’s case and subsequently served Newmont Ghana Gold Limited (“NGGL”) and Newmont Golden Ridge Limited (“NGRL”) along with the other named defendants, the Attorney General of Ghana, the Minerals Commission of Ghana and 33 other mining companies with interests in Ghana. The Plaintiffs allege that under article 268 of the 1992 Constitution of Ghana that the mining company defendants are not entitled to carry out any exploitation of minerals or other natural resources in Ghana, unless their respective transactions, contracts or concessions are ratified or exempted from ratification by the Parliament of Ghana. Newmont’s current mining leases are both ratified by Parliament; NGGL June 13, 2001 mining lease, ratified by Parliament on October 21, 2008, and NGRL January 19, 2010 mining lease; ratified by Parliament on December 3, 2015. The writ alleges that any mineral exploitation prior to Parliament ratification is unconstitutional. The Plaintiffs seek several remedies including: (i) a declaration as to the meaning of constitutional language at issue; (ii) an injunction precluding exploitation of minerals for any mining company without prior Parliament ratification; (iii) a declaration that all revenue as a result of violation of the Constitution shall be accounted for and recovered via cash equivalent; and (iv) an order that the Attorney General and Minerals Commission submit all un-ratified mining leases, undertakings or contracts to Parliament for ratification. Newmont intends to vigorously defend this matter, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome.
Goldcorp, Inc. - 100% Newmont Owned
Shareholder Action. On October 28, 2016 and February 14, 2017, separate proposed class actions were commenced in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice pursuant to the Class Proceedings Act (Ontario) against the Company and certain of its current and former officers. Both statement of claims alleged common law negligent misrepresentation in Goldcorp, Inc.’s public disclosure concerning the Peñasquito mine and also pleaded an intention to seek leave from the Court to proceed with an allegation of statutory misrepresentation pursuant to the secondary market civil liability provisions under the Securities Act (Ontario). By a consent order, the latter lawsuit proceeded, and the former action has been stayed. The active lawsuit purports to be brought on behalf of persons who acquired Goldcorp Inc.’s securities in the secondary market during an alleged class period from October 30, 2014 to August 23, 2016. An amended complaint was filed in the active lawsuit, which removed the individual defendants, and requested leave of the Court to pursue only the statutory cause of action. In July of 2021, plaintiff’s counsel filed a motion to discontinue the active lawsuit. The Company continues to vigorously defend this matter, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome.
Mexico Tax Matter
Tax Reassessment from Mexican Tax Authority. During 2016, the Mexican Tax Authority issued reassessment notices to several of Goldcorp, Inc.’s Mexican subsidiaries. Topics under dispute generally involve transfer pricing, deductibility of mine stripping costs, and gain recognized on certain asset sales. The Company has made significant progress in reaching resolution with the Mexican Tax Authority on these matters. In the second quarter of 2019, a number of issues were settled, resulting in a $96 payment, which was fully accrued in the financial statements. In the first quarter of 2020, further settlement was reached for an immaterial amount, with dialogue continuing in an effort to resolve the outstanding reassessment. Additionally, the Company continues to work through several audits in which observation letters have been received from the Mexican Tax Authority. The outcome of the remaining disputes is not readily determinable but could have a material impact on the Company. The Company believes that its tax positions are valid and intends to vigorously defend its tax filing positions.
Other Commitments and Contingencies
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

NEWMONT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
be required to be paid by reason thereof will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
In connection with our investment in Galore Creek, Newmont will owe NovaGold Resources Inc. $75 upon the earlier of approval to construct a mine, mill and all related infrastructure for the Galore Creek project or the initiation of construction of a mine, mill or any related infrastructure. The amount due is non-interest bearing. The decision for an approval and commencement of construction is contingent on the results of a prefeasibility and feasibility study, neither of which have occurred. As such, this amount has not been accrued.
Deferred payments to Barrick of $127 and $156 as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, are to be satisfied through funding a portion of Barrick’s share of project expenditures at the Norte Abierto project. These deferred payments to Barrick are included in Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities.

ITEM 2.       MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) provides information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Newmont Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Newmont,” the “Company,” “our” and “we”). We use certain non-GAAP financial measures in our MD&A. For a detailed description of each of the non-GAAP measures used in this MD&A, please see the discussion under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis.
This item should be read in conjunction with our interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in this quarterly report. Additionally, the following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 18, 2021.
Overview
Newmont is the world’s leading gold company and is the only gold company included in the S&P 500 Index and the Fortune 500 list of companies. We have been included in the Dow Jones Sustainability Index-World since 2007 and have adopted the World Gold Council’s Conflict-Free Gold Policy. Since 2015, Newmont has been ranked as the mining and metal sector's top gold miner by the SAM S&P Corporate Sustainability Assessment. Newmont was ranked the top miner in 3BL Media’s 100 Best Corporate Citizens list which ranks the 1,000 largest publicly traded U.S. companies on environmental, social and governance ("ESG") transparency and performance since 2020.
We are primarily engaged in the exploration for and acquisition of gold properties, some of which may contain copper, silver, lead, zinc or other metals. We have significant operations and/or assets in the United States (“U.S.”), Canada, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Peru, Suriname, Argentina, Chile, Australia and Ghana.
During the first half of 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak escalated to a global pandemic, which has had varying impacts in the jurisdictions in which we operate. In response, the Company temporarily placed five sites into care and maintenance late in the first quarter of 2020, with each subsequently resuming operations during the second quarter of 2020. As of September 30, 2021, all sites were fully operational, including Cerro Negro and Tanami. Cerro Negro returned to full capacity during September 2021 after operating for more than a year at reduced levels due to COVID-related impacts. After temporarily being placed into care and maintenance in late June 2021 to protect our employees and nearby communities, align with country mandated travel restrictions, and manage ongoing COVID-related impacts, Tanami returned to full capacity by the end of July 2021.
Refer to the “Third Quarter 2021 Highlights”, “Results of Consolidated Operations”, “Liquidity and Capital Resources" and “Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for further information about the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company.
During the third quarter of 2021, Nevada Gold Mines LLC ("NGM"), entered into a definitive asset exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with i-80 Gold Corp. The transaction closed during October 2021 and pursuant to the Exchange Agreement NGM acquired the remaining 40% interest in the South Arturo Joint Venture, along with an option to acquire additional properties, in exchange for Lone Tree and certain additional assets it currently owns. The valuation of NGM's controlling interest in the South Arturo property and related accounting resulting from the asset exchange is still in process. As a result of the transaction, the Company currently expects to recognize a significant gain, representing its 38.5% interest in NGM's gain, in the fourth quarter of 2021. Refer to Note 1 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
In May 2021, we purchased the remaining common shares of GT Gold Corporation (“GT Gold”) for cash consideration, including related transaction costs, of $326. Refer to Note 1 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details regarding this transaction.
In March 2020, we completed the sale of our Red Lake complex in Ontario, Canada, previously included as part of the Company’s North America segment. As the sale was completed on March 31, 2020, results for Red Lake for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 are included within the discussion below; there are no results for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 included herein.
For further information on asset sales, refer to Note 9 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
We continue to focus on improving safety and efficiency at our operations, maintaining leading environmental, social and governance practices, and sustaining our global portfolio of longer-life, lower cost mines to generate the financial flexibility we need to strategically reinvest in the business, strengthen the Company’s investment-grade balance sheet and return cash to shareholders.

The decrease in Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to the Loss on assets held for sale in connection with the Conga mill assets, lower realized gold prices, lower gold sales volumes, unrealized losses on marketable and other equity securities, higher Costs applicable to sales, and higher reclamation and remediation charges partially offset by lower income tax expense and lower impairment of long-lived assets.
The decrease in Net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to Newmont stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to the Loss on assets held for sale in connection with the Conga mill assets, lower Gain on asset and investment sales, net in 2021 due to the sales of Kalgoorlie, Continental Gold, Inc. ("Continental") and Red Lake in 2020, higher income tax expense, and higher reclamation and remediation charges partially offset by higher realized metal prices, higher sales volumes due to certain operations being placed into care and maintenance or experiencing reduced operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020, lower Care and maintenance, and lower impairment of long-lived assets and investments.

The decrease in gold sales during the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to lower average realized gold prices and ounces sold in the current period. Lower ounces sold in the current period is primarily due to (i) lower production at NGM as a result of a mechanical failure in May 2021 which resulted in a partial shutdown of the Goldstrike mill, which was fully repaired by September 2021, (ii) lower leach production, lower mill recovery and lower ore grade milled at CC&V, (iii) lower ore grade milled, lower recovery, and lower throughput at Tanami due to being placed under care and maintenance during July 2021 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and (iv) lower throughput, lower grade milled and lower recovery at Boddington. This was partially offset by higher ounces sold at Cerro Negro that had experienced reduced operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during the same period in 2020. The increase in gold sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to overall higher average realized gold prices in the current year and higher ounces sold in the current year due to certain operations being placed into care and maintenance or experiencing reduced operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020, partially offset by lower ounces sold at NGM, CC&V, and Tanami as well as lower mill throughput at Yanacocha as a result of the ramp down of the mill and lower leach recoveries.
The increases in copper, silver, lead and zinc sales during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, are primarily due to higher average realized metal prices in the current year and higher volumes sold in the current year due to Peñasquito experiencing reduced operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020.
For further discussion regarding changes in volumes, see Results of Consolidated Operations below.
The details of our Costs applicable to sales are set forth below. Refer to Note 3 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

The increase in Costs applicable to sales for gold during the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, is primarily due to (i) higher ounces sold at Peñasquito and Cerro Negro in the current year due to being placed into care and maintenance or experiencing reduced operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020, (ii) higher royalty payments, higher power costs and higher maintenance costs at Akyem, (iii) an unfavorable strip ratio as a result of mine sequencing and higher power costs at Ahafo, (iv) higher inventory adjustments and lower by-product credits at Yanacocha, partially offset by lower ounces sold at NGM and CC&V. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to higher ounces sold in the current year due to certain operations being placed into care and maintenance or experiencing reduced operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020, partially offset by higher by-product credits and lower sales volumes at Yanacocha, lower sales volumes at NGM, and the sale of Red Lake during the first quarter of 2020.
The increases in Costs applicable to sales for copper during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, are primarily due to a higher co-product allocation of costs to copper, increased royalty costs and an unfavorable Australian dollar foreign currency exchange rate, and higher copper pounds sold. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, was partially offset by lower maintenance costs at Boddington.
The increases in Costs applicable to sales for silver during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, are primarily due to higher ounces sold in the current year due to Peñasquito operations being placed into care and maintenance during a portion of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The increase in Costs applicable to sales for lead during the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to higher pounds sold in the current year due to Peñasquito operations being placed into care and maintenance during a portion of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The decrease in Costs applicable to sales for lead during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to lower co-product allocation of costs at Peñasquito, partially offset by higher pounds sold in the current year due to Peñasquito operations being placed into care and maintenance during a portion of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The increases in Costs applicable to sales for zinc during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, are primarily due to higher pounds sold in the current year due to Peñasquito operations being placed into care and maintenance during a portion of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The decreases in Depreciation and amortization for gold during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, are primarily due to lower production volume at NGM as a result of the partial shutdown of the Goldstrike mill from May 2021 through September 2021, lower production at CC&V as a result of lower leach pad production, lower mill recovery and lower ore grade milled, partially offset by higher ounces produced due to certain operations being placed into care and maintenance or experiencing reduced operations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during 2020.
The increases in Depreciation and amortization for copper during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, are primarily due to higher sales volumes and higher co-product allocation of costs to copper partially offset by a longer reserve life at Boddington.
The increases in Depreciation and amortization for silver during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, are primarily due to higher ounces produced in the current year due to Peñasquito operations being placed into care and maintenance during a portion of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Depreciation and amortization for lead remained consistent during the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020. The decrease in Depreciation and amortization for lead during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to lower co-product allocation of costs at Peñasquito, partially offset by higher pounds produced in the current year due to Peñasquito operations being placed into care and maintenance during a portion of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The decreases in Depreciation and amortization for zinc during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same periods in 2020, are primarily due to lower co-product allocation of costs at Peñasquito partially offset by higher pounds produced in the current year due to Peñasquito operations being placed into care and maintenance during a portion of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
For discussion regarding variations in operations, see Results of Consolidated Operations below.
Reclamation and remediation increased by $79 and $104 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. The increase during the three months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily due to higher estimated closure costs arising from recent tailings management review and monitoring requirements set forth by the Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management (GISTM). The increase during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was primarily due to higher estimated closure cost arising from recent tailings management review and monitoring requirements set forth by the GISTM, revisions to estimated construction costs of a water treatment plant at the Midnite mine site and higher estimated closure costs related to water management at NGM for the closed Rain site.
45
Exploration expense increased by $12 and $29 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily due to an increase in various exploration activities in North America, Australia and South America.
Advanced projects, research and development expense remained consistent for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020. Advanced projects, research and development expense increased by $16 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to increased spend associated with full potential programs.
General and administrative expense decreased by $7 and $15 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily due to ongoing integration activities related to Newmont Goldcorp transaction and other cost reduction efforts. General and administrative expense as a percentage of Sales was 2.1% and 2.2% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively compared to 2.1% and 2.5% in the same periods in 2020.
Interest expense, net of capitalized interest decreased by $9 and $27 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020 due to lower interest rates as a result of the Company's recent debt refinancing transactions and early redemption of the 2021 Notes. Refer to Note 17 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on the redemption.
Income and mining tax expense (benefit) was $222 and $305, and $798 and $446 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate is driven by a number of factors and the comparability of our income tax expense for the reported periods will be primarily affected by (i) variations in our income before income taxes; (ii) geographic distribution of that income; (iii) impacts of the changes in tax law; (iv) valuation allowances on tax assets; (v) percentage depletion; (vi) fluctuation in the value of the United States dollar and foreign currencies; and (vii) the impact of specific transactions and assessments. As a result, the effective tax rate will fluctuate, sometimes significantly, year to year. This trend is expected to continue in future periods. Refer to Note 11 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of income taxes.

In the third quarter of 2020, the Nevada legislature passed three resolutions proposing amendments to the Nevada Constitution to modify provisions regarding the Net Proceeds of Minerals tax. During the second quarter of 2021, the Nevada legislature enacted a new excise tax on revenue from gold and silver sales and as a result will not be making modifications to the Net Proceeds of Minerals tax. See the Nevada Results of Operations for additional information.
Governments in various jurisdictions in which the Company operates passed legislation in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. During the second quarter of 2021, the statutory Federal tax rate in Argentina was increased from 25% to 35%, effective January 1, 2021. The impact of the rate change on the deferred tax balance has been included in the tax expense.
Equity income (loss) of affiliates decreased by $14 and increased by $19 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020, primarily due to the Pueblo Viejo mine. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, earnings before income taxes and depreciation and amortization related to the Pueblo Viejo Mine (“Pueblo Viejo EBITDA”) was $108 and $336, respectively, and was $115 and $298 during the three and nine months ended

Results of Consolidated Operations
Newmont has developed gold equivalent ounces (“GEO”) metrics to provide a comparable basis for analysis and understanding of our operations and performance related to copper, silver, lead and zinc. Gold equivalent ounces are calculated as pounds or ounces produced or sold multiplied by the ratio of the other metals’ price to the gold price, using the metal prices in the table below:
GoldCopperSilverLeadZinc
(ounce)(pound)(ounce)(pound)(pound)
2021 GEO Price
$1,200 $2.75 $22.00 $0.90 $1.05

    Our mines continued to operate with robust controls, including heightened levels of health screening and testing to protect both our workforce and the local communities in which we operate. We have adopted a risk-based approach to business travel, are providing flexible and remote working plans for employees and are maintaining effective contact tracing procedures and “social distancing” protocols. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we incurred $24 and $66, respectively, of incremental direct costs related to our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, included in Other expense, net, as a result of these and other actions taken to protect our employees and operations, and to support the local communities in which we operate, of which $23 and $63, respectively, are included in All-in sustaining costs. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we incurred $32 and $67, respectively, of incremental direct costs related to our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, included in Other expense, net, and were excluded from All-in sustaining costs. All-in sustaining costs is a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” within Part I, Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis. For further information regarding costs related to our response to the COVID-19 pandemic, refer to Note 8 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Three months ended September 30, 2021 compared to 2020
Nevada Gold Mines. Attributable gold production decreased 9% primarily due to 25% lower production at Carlin as a result of a mechanical failure in May 2021 which resulted in a partial shutdown of the Goldstrike mill, which was fully repaired by September. This was partially offset by 15% higher production at Cortez as a result of higher ore grades processed and higher leach recoveries and 7% higher production at Turquoise Ridge as a result of higher throughput.
Costs applicable to sales per gold ounce increased 1% primarily due to 4% higher costs applicable to sales due to lower gold ounces sold, partially offset by lower mill throughput at Carlin and 5% higher costs applicable to sales at Turquoise Ridge due to a reduction of stockpile inventory. This was partially offset by 15% lower costs applicable to sales at Phoenix due to higher by-product credits from higher copper prices and 22% lower costs applicable to sales at Long Canyon due to a favorable strip ratio.
Depreciation and amortization per gold ounce decreased 2% primarily due to 7% lower amortization at Carlin driven by higher stockpile balances processed and lower amortization rates partially offset by lower ounces sold, 11% and 8% lower depreciation and amortization per ounce at Cortez and Phoenix, respectively, driven by higher gold ounces sold, and 17% lower depreciation and amortization per ounce at Long Canyon as a result of lower ounces mined. This was partially offset by 6% higher depreciation and amortization per ounce at Turquoise Ridge driven by a reduction in stockpile inventories.
All-in sustaining costs per gold ounce increased 5% primarily due higher costs applicable to sales at Carlin and Turquoise Ridge and higher sustaining capital spend at Carlin, Turquoise Ridge and Phoenix, partially offset by lower costs applicable to sales at Phoenix and Long Canyon.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 compared to 2020
Nevada Gold Mines. Attributable gold production decreased 10% primarily due to 18% lower production at Carlin as a result of lower availability of the Goldstrike mill and ore blending, 9% lower production at Cortez as a result of lower underground grades mined, lower mill throughput and the timing of leach recoveries and 16% lower production at Phoenix as a result of lower mill grades processed and lower mill throughput. This was partially offset by 17% higher production at Long Canyon as a result of higher leach tons and higher grade processed and 6% higher production at Turquoise Ridge as a result of higher underground tons and higher grades mined.
Costs applicable to sales per gold ounce decreased 1% primarily due to 36% lower costs applicable to sales at Phoenix as a result of higher by-product credits from higher copper prices and 50% lower costs applicable to sales at Long Canyon as a result of higher gold ounces sold and a favorable strip ratio. This was partially offset by 4% and 10% higher costs applicable to sales at Carlin and Cortez, respectively, primarily driven by lower gold ounces sold, partially offset by lower mill throughput at Carlin.

In 2021, the Nevada state legislature passed Assembly Bill 495 (the “Bill”) to enact a new tax on mining companies engaged in the business of extracting gold and silver in the state of Nevada. The Bill imposes a new excise tax on business entities with annual gross revenues over $20, with tax rates ranging from 0.75% to 1.1%. The excise tax is included in Cost applicable to sales.
Depreciation and amortization per gold ounce was in line with the prior year.
All-in sustaining costs per gold ounce decreased 1% primarily due to lower costs applicable to sales at Phoenix and Long Canyon, partially offset by higher costs applicable to sales at Carlin and Cortez.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
Our foreign operations sell their gold, copper, silver, lead and zinc production based on U.S. dollar metal prices. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates do not have a material impact on our revenue since gold, copper, silver, lead and zinc are sold throughout the world in U.S. dollars. Despite selling gold and silver in London, we have no exposure to the euro or the British pound.
Foreign currency exchange rates can increase or decrease profits to the extent costs are paid in foreign currencies, including the Australian dollar, the Canadian dollar, the Mexican peso, the Argentine peso, the Peruvian sol, the Surinamese dollar and the Ghanaian Cedi. Approximately 50% and 51% of Costs applicable to sales were paid in currencies other than the U.S. dollar during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as follows:

Variations in the local currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar at our foreign mining operations decreased Costs applicable to sales by $5 during the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020, primarily in Argentina and Suriname. Variations in the local currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar at our foreign mining operations increased Costs applicable to sales by $9 per ounce during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, primarily in Australia and Canada.
Our Cerro Negro mine, located in Argentina, is a U.S. dollar functional currency entity. Argentina has been considered a hyperinflationary environment with a cumulative inflation rate of over 100% for the last three years. In recent years, Argentina’s central bank enacted a number of foreign currency controls in an effort to stabilize the local currency, including requiring the Company to convert U.S. dollar proceeds from metal sales to local currency within 60 days from shipment date or five business days from receipt of cash, whichever happens first, as well as restricting payments to foreign-related entities denominated in foreign currency, such as dividends or distributions to the parent and related companies and royalties and other payments to foreign beneficiaries. These restrictions directly impact Cerro Negro's ability to pay principal portions of intercompany debt to the Company. We continue to monitor the foreign currency exposure risk and the limitations of repatriating cash to the United States. Currently, these currency controls are not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

Our Merian mine, located in the country of Suriname, is a U.S. dollar functional currency entity. Suriname has experienced significant swings in inflation rates for the last three years. In 2021, the Central Bank took steps to stabilize the local currency, while the government introduced new legislation to narrow the gap between government revenues and spending. The measures to increase government revenue mainly consist of tax increases; however, Newmont and the Republic of Suriname have a Mineral Agreement in place that supersedes such measures. The Central Bank of Suriname recently adopted a controlled floating rate system and concurrently the Surinamese dollar devalued significantly. The majority of Merian’s activity has historically been denominated in U.S. dollars resulting in an immaterial impact on our financial statements. Therefore, future devaluation of the Surinamese dollar is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity Overview
We have a disciplined cash allocation strategy of maintaining financial flexibility to execute our capital priorities and generate long-term value for our shareholders. Consistent with that strategy, we aim to self-fund development projects and make strategic partnerships focused on profitable growth, while reducing our debt and returning cash to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a material impact on the global economy, the scale and duration of which remain uncertain. Depending on the duration and extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, sites could be placed into care and maintenance; transportation industry disruptions could occur, including limitations on shipping produced metals; refineries or smelters could be temporarily closed; our supply chain could be disrupted; or we could incur credit related losses of certain financial assets, which could materially impact the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. As of September 30, 2021, we believe our available liquidity allows us to manage the near-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.
At September 30, 2021, the Company had $4,636 in Cash and cash equivalents, of which $1,468 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. Cash and cash equivalents denominated in Argentine Peso are subject to regulatory restrictions. See Foreign Currency Exchange Rates above for further information. At September 30, 2021, $406 of the consolidated cash and cash equivalents was attributable to noncontrolling interests primarily related to our Peru and Suriname operations, which is being held locally to fund those operations. At September 30, 2021, $1,241 in consolidated cash and cash equivalents ($845 attributable to Newmont) was held at certain foreign subsidiaries that, if repatriated, may be subject to withholding taxes. We expect that there would be no additional tax burden upon repatriation after considering the cash cost associated with the withholding taxes. We believe that our liquidity and capital resources are adequate to fund our operations and corporate activities.
We believe our existing consolidated Cash and cash equivalents, available capacity on our revolving credit facility, and cash generated from continuing operations will be adequate to satisfy working capital needs, fund future growth, meet debt obligations, pay dividends and meet other liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future. At September 30, 2021, our borrowing capacity on our revolving credit facility was $3,000 and we had no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility. We continue to remain compliant with covenants and there have been no impacts to-date, nor do we anticipate any negative impacts from COVID-19, on our ability to access funds available on this facility.

Cash Flows
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of continuing operations was $2,967 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, a decrease in cash provided of $237 from the nine months ended September 30, 2020, primarily due to higher tax payments and an increase in prepaid assets, partially offset by higher average realized metal prices.
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities of continuing operations was $(1,517) during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, a decrease in cash provided of $2,094 from the nine months ended September 30, 2020, primarily due to proceeds from the sales of Kalgoorlie, Red Lake and Continental Gold in 2020, the acquisition of GT Gold in 2021, and higher capital expenditures in 2021.
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities of discontinued operations was $— during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, a decrease in cash used of $75 from the nine months ended September 30, 2020, due to the payment for the option to acquire mining and mineral rights subject to the Holt royalty obligation as part of the Kirkland Agreement in 2020.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $(2,363) during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase in cash used of $1,244 from the nine months ended September 30, 2020, primarily due to an increase in dividends paid to stockholders and higher net repayments of debt in 2021, partially offset by lower repurchases of common stock in 2021.
Capital Resources
In October 2021, the Board declared a dividend of $0.55 per share on third quarter 2021 earnings, determined under the dividend framework established and approved by the Board in 2020 to share incremental free cash flow with shareholders at higher gold prices. The framework returns 40 to 60 percent of incremental attributable free cash flow to shareholders that is generated above a $1,200 per ounce gold price. This framework is non-binding and is periodically reviewed and reassessed by the Board of Directors.

Table of Contents
The declaration and payment of future dividends remains at the full discretion of the Board and will depend on the Company’s financial results, cash requirements, future prospects, COVID-19 impacts and other factors deemed relevant by the Board.
In January 2021, the Company announced that the Board of Directors authorized a new stock repurchase program for up to $1 billion of common stock to be repurchased in the next 18 months. Through September 30, 2021, we have executed and settled trades totaling $248 of common stock repurchases under the plan.
Capital Expenditures
Cash generated from operations is used to execute our capital priorities, which include sustaining and developing our global portfolio of long-lived assets. For example, the Board of Directors approved full funding for the Ahafo North project in Africa in July 2021. Total capital spend on the Ahafo North project is expected to range from $750 to $850, which we expect to fund from existing liquidity and future operating cash flows. We consider sustaining capital as those capital expenditures that are necessary to maintain current 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 production or reserves, are considered non-sustaining or development capital. In addition, the Company continues to evaluate strategic priorities and deployment of capital to projects in the pipeline to ensure it executes on its capital priorities and provides long term value to shareholders. The Company’s decision to reprioritize, sell or abandon a development project, which may include returning mining concessions to host governments, could result in a future impairment charge.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we had Additions to property, plant and mine development as follows:

Supplemental Guarantor Information. The Company filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC on Form S-3 under the Securities Act, of 1933, as amended, which enables us to issue an indeterminate number or amount of common stock, preferred stock, depository shares, debt securities, guarantees of debt securities, warrants and units (the “Shelf Registration Statement”). Under the Shelf Registration Statement, our debt securities may be guaranteed by Newmont USA Limited (“Newmont USA”), one of our consolidated subsidiaries (Newmont, as issuer, and Newmont USA, as guarantor, are collectively referred to here-within as the “Obligor Group”). These guarantees are full and unconditional, and none of our other subsidiaries guarantee any security issued and outstanding. The cash provided by operations of the Obligor Group, and all of its subsidiaries, is available to satisfy debt repayments as they become due, and there are no material restrictions on the ability of the Obligor Group to obtain funds from subsidiaries by dividend, loan, or otherwise, except to the extent of any rights of noncontrolling interests or regulatory restrictions limiting repatriation of cash. Net assets attributable to noncontrolling interests were $526 and $837 at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. All noncontrolling interests relate to non-guarantor subsidiaries.

Newmont and Newmont USA are primarily holding companies with no material operations, sources of income or assets other than equity interest in their subsidiaries and intercompany receivables or payables. Newmont USA’s primary investments are comprised of its 38.5% interest in NGM and 51.35% interest in Yanacocha.

In addition to equity interests in subsidiaries, the Obligor Group’s balance sheets consisted primarily of the following intercompany assets, intercompany liabilities and external debt. The remaining assets and liabilities of the Obligor Group are considered immaterial at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Newmont USA's subsidiary guarantees (the “subsidiary guarantees”) are general unsecured senior obligations of Newmont USA and rank equal in right of payment to all of Newmont USA's existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and senior in right of payment to all of Newmont USA's future subordinated indebtedness. The subsidiary guarantees are effectively junior to any secured indebtedness of Newmont USA to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness.
At September 30, 2021, Newmont USA had approximately $5,384 of consolidated indebtedness (including guaranteed debt), all of which relates to the guarantees of indebtedness of Newmont.
Under the terms of the subsidiary guarantees, holders of Newmont’s securities subject to such subsidiary guarantees will not be required to exercise their remedies against Newmont before they proceed directly against Newmont USA.
Newmont USA will be released and relieved from all its obligations under the subsidiary guarantees in certain specified circumstances, including, but not limited to, the following:

Table of Contents
•upon the sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger), in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of a majority of the total voting power of the capital stock or other interests of Newmont USA (other than to Newmont or any of Newmont’s affiliates);
•upon the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of Newmont USA (other than to Newmont or any of Newmont’s affiliates); or
•upon such time as Newmont USA ceases to guarantee more than $75 aggregate principal amount of Newmont’s debt (at September 30, 2021, Newmont USA guaranteed $600 aggregate principal amount of debt of Newmont that did not contain a similar fall-away provision).
Newmont’s debt securities are effectively junior to any secured indebtedness of Newmont to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, and structurally subordinated to all debt and other liabilities of Newmont’s non-guarantor subsidiaries. At September 30, 2021, (i) Newmont’s total consolidated indebtedness was approximately $6,138, none of which was secured (other than $656 of Lease and other financing obligations), and (ii) Newmont’s non-guarantor subsidiaries had $5,848 of total liabilities (including trade payables, but excluding intercompany and external debt and reclamation and remediation liabilities), which would have been structurally senior to Newmont’s debt securities.
For further information on our debt, refer to Note 17 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Contractual Obligations
As of September 30, 2021, there have been no material changes, outside the ordinary course of business, in our contractual obligations since December 31, 2020. Refer to Part II, Item 7 in our annual report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2020 for information regarding our contractual obligations.
Environmental
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. We perform a comprehensive review of our reclamation and remediation liabilities annually and review changes in facts and circumstances associated with these obligations at least quarterly.
In early 2015 and again in June 2017, the Peruvian government agency responsible for certain environmental regulations, the Ministry of the Environment (“MINAM”), issued proposed modifications to water quality criteria for designated beneficial uses which apply to mining companies, including Yanacocha. These criteria modified the in-stream water quality criteria pursuant to which Yanacocha has been designing water treatment processes and infrastructure. In December 2015, MINAM issued the final regulation that modified the water quality standards and stipulated that these revised criteria would become enforceable from December 2023. Since announcement of the revised regulations, the Company has been conducting detailed studies to better estimate water management and other closure activities that will ensure water quality and quantity discharge requirements, including the modifications promulgated by MINAM, as referenced above, will be met. These ongoing studies were progressed in the third quarter of 2021 as the study team continued to evaluate and revise assumptions and estimated costs of potential changes to the reclamation plan. The potential changes are currently undergoing review and remain subject to revision. However, based on the work progressed in the third quarter and the resulting preliminary findings, the Company currently expects to make revisions to the reclamation plan that, should these findings be confirmed, would result in material increases to the cost of water treatment plant construction and water treatment operating costs associated with the closure plan, which could result in a material increase in the reclamation obligation at Yanacocha. Refer to Note 21 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
For a complete discussion of the factors that influence our reclamation obligations and the associated risks, refer to Part II, Item 7, Managements’ Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations under the headings “Environmental” and “Critical Accounting Policies” and refer to Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors under the heading “Mine closure, reclamation and remediation costs for environmental liabilities may exceed the provisions we have made” for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed February 18, 2021 on Form 10-K.
Our sustainability strategy is a foundational element in achieving our purpose to create value and improve lives through sustainable and responsible mining. Sustainability and safety are integrated into the business at all levels of the organization through our global policies, standards, strategies, business plans and remuneration plans. For additional information on the Company’s reclamation and remediation liabilities, refer to Notes 5 and 21 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standard meaning prescribed by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Unless otherwise noted, we present the Non-GAAP financial measures of our continuing operations in the tables below.

Table of Contents
Earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization and Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization
Management uses Earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and EBITDA adjusted for non-core or certain items that have a disproportionate impact on our results for a particular period (“Adjusted EBITDA”) as non-GAAP measures to evaluate the Company’s operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent, and should not be considered an alternative to, net income (loss), operating income (loss), or cash flow from operations as those terms are defined by GAAP, and do not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. Although Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are frequently used as measures of operations and the ability to meet debt service requirements by other companies, our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors. Management’s determination of the components of Adjusted EBITDA 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 EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as follows:

The assets were remeasured to fair value less costs to sell. Refer to Note 7 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
(2)Change in fair value of investments, included in Other income (loss), net, primarily represents unrealized gains and losses related to the Company's investments in current and non-current marketable and other equity securities. For further information regarding our investments, refer to Note 14 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
(3)Reclamation and remediation charges, included in Reclamation and remediation, represent revisions to reclamation and remediation plans at the Company's former operating properties and historic mining operations that have entered the closure phase and have no substantive future economic value. Refer to Note 5 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statement for further information.
(4)(Gain) loss on asset and investment sales, included in Gain on asset and investment sales, net, primarily represents a gain on the sale of TMAC in 2021 and gains on the sale of Kalgoorlie and Continental in 2020.

Table of Contents
(8)COVID-19 specific costs, included in Other expense, net, primarily include amounts distributed from Newmont Global Community Support Fund to help host communities, governments and employees combat the COVID-19 pandemic. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, Adjusted EBITDA has not been adjusted for $23 and $63 of incremental COVID-19 costs incurred as a result of actions taken to protect against the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic at our operational sites. Refer to Note 8 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
(9)Impairment of investments, included in Other income (loss), net, primarily represents the other-than-temporary impairment of the TMAC investment recorded in 2020.

(13)Adjusted EBITDA has not been adjusted for cash care and maintenance costs, included in Care and maintenance, which represent costs incurred associated with certain mine sites being temporarily placed into care and maintenance in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Cash care and maintenance costs were $6 and $8 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, relating to our Tanami mine site. Cash care and maintenance costs were $26 and $171 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, relating to our Musselwhite, Éléonore, Peñasquito, Yanacocha, and Cerro Negro mine sites.
Additionally, the Company uses Pueblo Viejo EBITDA as a non-GAAP measure to evaluate the operating performance of its investment in the Pueblo Viejo mine. Pueblo Viejo EBITDA does not represent, and should not be considered an alternative to, Equity income (loss) of affiliates, as defined by GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash distributions from Pueblo Viejo will match Pueblo Viejo EBITDA or earnings from affiliates. Although the Company has the ability to exert significant influence, it does not have direct control over the operations or resulting revenues and expenses, nor does it proportionately consolidate its investment in Pueblo Viejo. The Company believes that Pueblo Viejo EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the operating results of its investment in Pueblo Viejo, in the same manner as management and the Board of Directors. Equity income (loss) of affiliates is reconciled to Pueblo Viejo EBITDA as follows:

Adjusted net income (loss)
Management uses Adjusted net income (loss) to evaluate the Company’s operating performance and for planning and forecasting future business operations. The Company believes the use of Adjusted net income (loss) allows investors and others to understand the results of the continuing operations of the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries relating to the sale of products, by excluding certain items that have a disproportionate impact on our results for a particular period. Adjustments to continuing operations are presented before tax and net of our partners’ noncontrolling interests, when applicable. The tax effect of adjustments is presented in the Tax effect of adjustments line and is calculated using the applicable regional tax rate. Management’s 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:

(15)Adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share is calculated using diluted common shares, which are calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Free Cash Flow
Management uses Free Cash Flow as a non-GAAP measure to analyze cash flows generated from operations. Free Cash Flow is Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities of discontinued operations less Additions to property, plant and mine development as presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company believes Free Cash Flow is also useful as one of the bases for comparing the Company’s performance with its competitors. Although Free Cash Flow and similar measures are frequently used as measures of cash flows generated from operations by other companies, the Company’s calculation of Free Cash Flow is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies.
The presentation of non-GAAP Free Cash Flow is not meant to be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company’s performance, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity as those terms are defined by GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. The Company’s definition of Free Cash Flow is limited in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Therefore, the Company believes it is important to view Free Cash Flow as a measure that provides supplemental information to the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Free Cash Flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, to Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, which the Company believes to be the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to Free Cash Flow, as well as information regarding Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities and Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities.

Costs applicable to sales per ounce/gold equivalent ounce
Costs applicable to sales per ounce/gold equivalent ounce are non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are calculated by dividing the costs applicable to sales of gold and other metals by gold ounces or gold equivalent ounces sold, respectively. These measures are calculated for the periods presented on a consolidated basis. Costs applicable to sales per ounce/gold equivalent ounce 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.
The following tables reconcile these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

All-In Sustaining Costs
Newmont has developed a metric that expands on GAAP measures, such as cost of goods sold, and non-GAAP measures, such as costs applicable to sales per ounce, to provide visibility into the economics of our mining operations related to expenditures, operating performance and the ability to generate cash flow from our continuing operations.
Current GAAP measures used in the mining industry, such as cost of goods sold, do not capture all of the expenditures incurred to discover, develop and sustain production. Therefore, we believe that all-in sustaining costs is a non-GAAP measure that provides additional information to management, investors and analysts that aids in the understanding of the economics of our operations and performance compared to other producers and provides investors visibility by better defining the total costs associated with production.
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 (i.e. non-sustaining) activities based upon each company’s internal policies.
The following disclosure provides information regarding the adjustments made in determining the all-in sustaining costs measure:
Costs applicable to sales. Includes all direct and indirect costs related to current production incurred to execute the current mine plan. We exclude certain exceptional or unusual amounts from Costs applicable to sales (“CAS”), such as significant revisions to recovery amounts. CAS includes by-product credits from certain metals obtained during the process of extracting and processing the primary ore-body. CAS is accounted for on an accrual basis and excludes Depreciation and amortization and Reclamation and remediation, which is consistent with our presentation of CAS on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. In determining AISC, 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 Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations less the amount of CAS attributable to the production of other metals at our Peñasquito and Boddington mines. The other metals CAS at those mine sites is disclosed in Note 3 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The allocation of CAS between gold and other

Table of Contents
metals at the Peñasquito and Boddington mines is based upon the relative sales value of gold and other metals produced during the period.
Reclamation costs. Includes accretion expense related to reclamation liabilities and the amortization of the related Asset Retirement Cost (“ARC”) for the Company’s operating properties. Accretion related to the reclamation liabilities and the amortization of the ARC assets for reclamation does not reflect annual cash outflows but are calculated in accordance with GAAP. The accretion and amortization reflect the periodic costs of reclamation associated with current production and are therefore included in the measure. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals at the Peñasquito and Boddington mines.
Advanced projects, research and development and exploration. Includes incurred expenses related to projects that are designed to sustain current production and exploration. We note that as current resources are depleted, exploration and advanced projects are necessary for us to replace the depleting reserves or enhance the recovery and processing of the current reserves to sustain production at existing operations. As these costs relate to sustaining our production, and are 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 Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations less incurred expenses related to the development of new operations, or related to major projects at existing operations where these projects will materially benefit the operation in the future. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals at the Peñasquito and Boddington mines. We also allocate these costs incurred at the Other North America, Other Australia and Corporate and Other locations using the proportion of CAS between gold and other metals.
General and administrative. Includes costs related to administrative tasks not directly related to current production, but rather related to supporting 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. We allocate these costs to gold and other metals at the Other North America, Other Australia and Corporate and Other locations using the proportion of CAS between gold and other metals.
Care and maintenance and Other expense, net. Care and maintenance includes direct operating costs incurred at the mine sites during the period that these sites were temporarily placed into care and maintenance in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. For Other expense, net we exclude certain exceptional or unusual expenses, such as restructuring, as these are not indicative to sustaining our current operations. Furthermore, this adjustment to Other expense, net is also consistent with the nature of the adjustments made to Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders as disclosed in the Company’s non-GAAP financial measure Adjusted net income (loss). The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals at the Peñasquito and Boddington mines. We also allocate these costs incurred at the Other North America, Other Australia and Corporate and Other locations using the proportion of CAS between gold and other metals.
Treatment and refining costs. Includes costs paid to smelters for treatment and refining of our concentrates to produce the salable metal. These costs are presented net as a reduction of Sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals at the Peñasquito and Boddington mines.
Sustaining capital and finance lease payments. We determined sustaining capital and finance lease payments as those capital expenditures and finance lease payments that are necessary to maintain current production and execute the current mine plan. We determined development (i.e. non-sustaining) capital expenditures and finance lease payments to be those payments used to develop new operations or related to projects at existing operations where those projects will materially benefit the operation and are excluded from the calculation of AISC. The classification of sustaining and development capital projects and finance leases is based on a systematic review of our project portfolio in light of the nature of each project. Sustaining capital and finance lease payments are relevant to the AISC metric as these are needed to maintain the Company’s current operations and provide improved transparency related to our ability to finance these expenditures from current operations. The allocation of these costs to gold and other metals is determined using the same allocation used in the allocation of CAS between gold and other metals at the Peñasquito and Boddington mines. We also allocate these costs incurred at the Other North America, Other Australia and Corporate and Other locations using the proportion of CAS between gold and other metals.

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, silver, lead and zinc also affect our profitability and cash flow. These metals are traded on established international exchanges and 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 metals can also significantly affect the value of our product inventory, stockpiles and leach pads, and it may be necessary to record a write-down to the net realizable value, as well as significantly impact our carrying value of long-lived assets and goodwill. Refer to Part II, Item 7 in our annual report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2020 for information regarding the sensitivity of our impairment analyses over long-lived assets and goodwill to changes in metal price.
Net realizable value 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 our stockpiles, leach pads 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
78
Table of Contents
assumptions in determining the stockpile, leach pad and product inventory adjustments for each mine site reporting unit at September 30, 2021 included production cost and capitalized expenditure assumptions unique to each operation, a short-term and long-term gold price of $1,790 and $1,500 per ounce, respectively, a short-term and long-term copper price of $4.25 and $3.00 per pound, respectively, a short-term and long-term silver price of $24.36 and $20.00 per ounce, respectively, a short-term and long-term lead price of $1.06 and $1.05 per pound, respectively, a short-term and long-term zinc price of $1.36 and $1.30 per pound, respectively, a short-term and long-term U.S. to Australian dollar exchange rate of $0.73 and $0.77, respectively, a short-term and long-term U.S. to Canadian dollar exchange rate of $0.79 and $0.80, respectively, a short-term and long-term U.S. dollar to Mexican Peso exchange rate of $0.05 and $0.05, respectively and a short-term and long-term U.S. dollar to Argentinian Peso exchange rate of $0.01 and $0.01, respectively.
The net realizable value 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.
Foreign Currency
In addition to our operations in the United States, we have significant operations and/or assets in Canada, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Peru, Suriname, Argentina, Chile, Australia and Ghana. All of our operations sell their gold, copper, silver, lead and zinc production based on U.S. dollar metal prices. Foreign currency exchange rates can fluctuate widely due to numerous factors, such as supply and demand for foreign and U.S. currencies and U.S. and foreign country economic conditions. Fluctuations in the local currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar can increase or decrease profit margins, cash flow and Costs applicable to sales per ounce/ pound to the extent costs are paid in local currency at foreign operations.
Commodity Price Exposure
Our provisional concentrate 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 respective metal concentrates at the prevailing indices’ prices at the time of sale. The embedded derivative, which is not designated for hedge accounting, is marked to market through earnings each period prior to final settlement.
We perform an analysis on the provisional concentrate sales to determine the potential impact to Net income (loss) attributable to Newmont stockholders for each 10% change to the average price on the provisional concentrate sales subject to final pricing over the next several months. Refer below for our analysis as of September 30, 2021.

ITEM 1.       LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
Information regarding legal proceedings is contained in Note 21 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report and is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 1A.       RISK FACTORS.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report and the risk factor noted below, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item IA., "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. The risks described in our Annual Report and herein are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows and/or future results.

Our operations at Yanacocha and the development of our Conga project in Peru are subject to political and social unrest risks.

Minera Yanacocha S.R.L. (“Yanacocha”), in which we own a 51.35% interest, and whose properties include the mining operations at Yanacocha and the Conga project in Peru, has been the target of local political and community protests, some of which blocked the road between the Yanacocha mine and Conga project complexes in the City of Cajamarca in Peru and resulted in vandalism and equipment damage. While recently roadblocks and protests have diminished and focused on local political activism and labor disputes, we cannot predict whether similar or more significant incidents will occur in the future. The recurrence of significant political or community opposition or protests could continue to adversely affect the Conga Project’s development, other new projects in the area and the continued operation of Yanacocha.
Construction activities on our Conga project were suspended in 2011, at the request of Peru’s central government following protests in Cajamarca by anti-mining activists led by the regional president. At the request of the Peruvian central government, the environmental impact assessment prepared in connection with the project was reviewed by independent experts in an effort to resolve allegations around the environmental viability of Conga. This review concluded that the environmental impact assessment complied with international standards and provided recommendations to improve water management. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the project’s development timeline, we have allocated our exploration and development capital to other projects in our portfolio. As a result, the Conga project is currently in care and maintenance and we will continue to evaluate long-term options to progress development of the Conga project. Should the Company be unable to develop the Conga project or conclude that future development is not in the best interest of the business, a future impairment charge may result.
The prior Central Government of Peru supported responsible mining as a vehicle for the growth and future development of Peru in 2020. However, following the most recent presidential election, we are unable to predict whether the Central government will continue to take similar positions in the future. In a close and contested election, Pedro Castillo was declared the president-elect of Peru in July 2021, which resulted in a period of protests, unrest and uncertainty around the political and social environment in Peru and Cajamarca. Castillo’s election platform had been considered to be less supportive of mining in the past, and raised concerns with respect to foreign investment and mining. However, the new Central Government’s legislative priorities and agenda remain to be established. Most recently, in October 2021, Castillo replaced members of his cabinet amid concerns of political instability, including the appointment of a new Prime Minister and ministers of mining, work, and interior. Additionally, previous regional governments of Cajamarca and other political parties actively opposed certain mining projects in the past, including by protests, community demands and road blockages, which may occur again in the future. We are unable to predict the positions that will be taken by the Central or regional government and neighboring communities in the future and whether such positions or changes in law will affect current operations and new projects at Yanacocha or Conga. Risks related to mining and foreign investment under the new administration include, without limitation, risks to mining concessions, land tenure and permitting, increased taxes and royalties, nationalization of mining assets and increased labor regulations, environmental and other regulatory requirements. Any change in government positions or laws on these issues could adversely affect the assets and operations of Yanacocha or Conga, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position. Additionally, the inability to develop Conga or operate at Yanacocha could have an adverse impact on our growth and production in the region.
In addition, in early 2015 and again in June 2017, the Peruvian government agency responsible for certain environmental regulations, the Ministry of the Environment (“MINAM”), issued proposed modifications to water quality criteria for designated beneficial uses which apply to mining companies, including Yanacocha. These criteria modified the in-stream water quality criteria pursuant to which Yanacocha has been designing water treatment processes and infrastructure. In December 2015, MINAM issued the final regulation that modified the water quality standards. These Peruvian regulations allow time to formulate a compliance plan and make any necessary changes to achieve compliance. In February 2017, Yanacocha submitted a modification to its previously approved compliance achievement plan to the Mining Ministry (“MINEM”). The Company did not receive a response or comments to this submission until April 2021 and is now in the process of updating its compliance achievement plan to address these comments. During this interim period, Yanacocha separately submitted an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) modification considering the ongoing operations and the projects to be developed and obtained authorization from MINEM for such projects. This authorization included a
80
Table of Contents
deadline for compliance with the modified water quality criteria by January 2024. Consequently, part of the Company response to MINEM will include a request for an extension of time for coming into full compliance with the new regulations. In the event that MINEM does not grant Yanacocha an extension of the previously authorized timeline for, and agree to, the updated compliance achievement plan, fines and penalties relating to non-compliance may result beyond January 2024. The Company currently operates five water treatment plants at Yanacocha that have been and currently meet all currently applicable water discharge requirements. The Company is currently conducting detailed studies to better estimate water management and other closure activities that will ensure water quality and quantity discharge requirements, including the modifications promulgated by MINAM, as referenced above, will be met. This also includes performing a comprehensive update to the Yanacocha reclamation plan to address changes in closure activities and estimated closure costs while preserving optionality for potential future projects at Yanacocha.
These ongoing studies, which will extend beyond the current year, were progressed in the third quarter of 2021 as the study team continued to evaluate and revise assumptions and estimated costs of potential changes to the reclamation plan. The potential changes are currently undergoing review and remain subject to revision, therefore, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate a change to the reclamation obligation as of September 30, 2021. However, based on the work progressed in the third quarter and the resulting preliminary findings, the Company currently expects to make revisions to the reclamation plan that, should these findings be confirmed, would result in material increases to the cost of water treatment plant construction, water treatment operating costs and other costs associated with the closure plan.
In conjunction with the Company’s annual update process for all asset retirement obligations, the Company currently expects to record an adjustment to the Yanacocha reclamation liability in the fourth quarter of 2021 based on the planned progress of the closure studies. As related activities are progressed, it is expected that the preliminary findings, if confirmed, could result in a material increase in the reclamation obligation at Yanacocha of up to approximately $1.6 billion, primarily related to the upfront construction of water treatment plants and the related annual operating costs assumed over the extended closure period, with a corresponding non-cash charge to reclamation expense related to operations no longer in production. Work to refine the associated cost estimates and additional study work remain to be completed. Further, the ongoing Yanacocha closure studies are expected to continue beyond 2021. As a result, future material increases or decreases to the asset retirement obligation could occur as additional analyses are completed and further refinements to water quality and volume modeling are completed. Additionally, revisions to the Yanacocha reclamation plan may change in connection with the Company’s ultimate submission and review of the plan with Peruvian regulators.

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.
81
Table of Contents
In addition, we have established our “Rapid Response” crisis management 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 health and safety of our people and our host communities is paramount. This is why Newmont engaged its Rapid Response process early in connection with the on-going COVID-19 pandemic and proactively took conservative steps to prevent further transmission of the Coronavirus. Refer to the “Third Quarter 2021 Highlights”, “Results of Consolidated Operations”, “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for further information about the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company.
The operation of our U.S. based mine 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 mine 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. As of the date of filing, Newmont has received no citations by MSHA in connection with COVID-19 related regulations or requirements.
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. It is noted that the Nevada mines owned by Nevada Gold Mines LLC, a joint venture between the Company (38.5%) and Barrick Gold Corporation (“Barrick”) (61.5%), are not included in the Company’s Exhibit 95 mine safety disclosure reporting as such sites are operated by our joint venture partner, Barrick.
