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

NOTE 7 INCOME AND MINING TAXES
During the first quarter of 2013, the Company recorded estimated income and mining tax expense of $181 resulting in an effective tax rate of 33%. Estimated income and mining tax expense during the first quarter of 2012 was $343 for an effective tax rate of 33%.
The Companys income and mining tax expense differed from the statutory rate of 35% for the following reasons:

The Company operates in numerous countries around the world and accordingly it is subject to, and pays annual income taxes under, the various income tax regimes in the countries in which it operates. Some of these tax regimes are defined by contractual agreements with the local government, and others are defined by the general corporate income tax laws of the country. The Company has historically filed, and continues to file, all required income tax returns and pay the income taxes reasonably determined to be due. The tax rules and regulations in many countries are highly complex and subject to interpretation. From time to time the Company is subject to a review of its historic income tax filings and in connection with such reviews, disputes can arise with the taxing authorities over the interpretation or application of certain rules to the Companys business conducted within the country involved.
At March 31, 2013, the Companys total unrecognized tax benefit was $402 for uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken on income tax returns. Of this, $126 represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the Companys effective income tax rate.
As a result of the statute of limitations that expire in the next 12 months in various jurisdictions, and possible settlements of audit-related issues with taxing authorities in various jurisdictions with respect to which none of the issues are individually significant, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of its net unrecognized income tax benefits will decrease by approximately $15 to $20 in the next 12 months.

NOTE 8 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Discontinued operations include Holloway Mining Company, which owned the Holt-McDermott property (Holt property) that was sold to St. Andrew Goldfields Ltd. (St. Andrew) in 2006. In 2009, the Superior Court issued a decision finding Newmont Canada Corporation (Newmont Canada) liable for a sliding scale royalty on production from the Holt property, which was upheld in 2011 by the Ontario Court of Appeal. During the first quarter of 2012, the Company recorded an additional $71 charge, net of tax benefits of $4, to reflect an increase in future expected production at the Holt property due to new reserve and resource estimates published by St. Andrew.
Net operating cash used in discontinued operations of $6 and $4 in the first quarter of 2013 and 2012 relates to payments on the Holt property royalty.

Options to purchase 4 and 1 million shares of common stock at average exercise prices of $49 and $59 were outstanding at March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted weighted average common shares because their exercise prices exceeded the average price of the Companys common stock for the respective periods presented.
Newmont is required to settle the principal amount of its 2014 and 2017 Convertible Senior Notes in cash and may elect to settle the remaining conversion premium (average share price in excess of the conversion price), if any, in cash, shares or a combination thereof. The effect of contingently convertible instruments on diluted earnings per share is calculated under the net share settlement method in accordance with ASC guidance. The average price of the Companys common stock exceeded the conversion prices for all periods presented, resulting in additional shares included in the computation of diluted weighted average common shares.
In February 2012, the holders of the Companys 2012 Convertible Senior Notes exercised their election to convert the notes. The Company elected to pay the $172 conversion premium with cash, and as a result no common shares were issued.

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, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and | |
Level 3 | Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). |
The following table sets forth the Companys assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by accounting guidance, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The fair values of the derivative instruments in the table above are presented on a net basis. The gross amounts related to the fair value of the derivatives instruments above are included in the Derivatives Instruments Note (see Note 14). All other Fair Value disclosures in the above table are presented on a gross basis.
The Companys cash equivalent instruments are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices. The cash equivalent instruments that are valued based on quoted market prices in active markets are primarily money market securities and U.S. Treasury securities.
The Companys marketable equity securities are valued using quoted market prices in active markets and as such are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The securities are segregated based on industry. The fair value of the marketable equity securities is calculated as the quoted market price of the marketable equity security multiplied by the quantity of shares held by the Company.
The Companys marketable corporate debt securities are mainly comingled fund investments that are classified within Level 2 with the unit of account considered to be at the fund level. Therefore, the investments are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Companys marketable debt securities also include investments in auction rate securities and asset backed commercial paper. The Company reviews the fair value for auction rate securities and asset backed commercial paper on a quarterly basis. The auction rate securities are traded in markets that are not active, trade infrequently and have little price transparency. See table below which sets forth a summary of the quantitative and qualitative information related to the significant unobservable inputs used in the calculation of the fair value.
The Companys net trade receivable from provisional copper and gold concentrate sales, subject to final pricing, is valued using quoted market prices based on forward curves and, as such, is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Companys derivative instruments are valued using pricing models and the Company generally uses similar models to value similar instruments. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit spreads, measures of volatility, and correlations of such inputs. The Companys derivatives trade in liquid markets, and as such, model inputs can generally be verified and do not involve significant management judgment. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The estimated value of the Boddington contingent royalty was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model which simulates future gold and copper prices and costs applicable to sales. This contingent royalty is capped at $100, and at June 30,2012, the Company increased the accrual to the maximum of $100. The Boddington contingent royalty is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. See table below which sets forth a summary of the quantitative and qualitative information related to the significant unobservable inputs used in the calculation of the fair value.
The estimated fair value of the Holt sliding scale royalty was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation model.

NOTE 14 DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Companys strategy is to provide shareholders with leverage to changes in gold and copper prices by selling its production at spot market prices. Consequently, the Company does not hedge its gold and copper sales. The Company continues to manage certain risks associated with commodity input costs, interest rates and foreign currencies using the derivative market. All of the derivative instruments described below were transacted for risk management purposes and qualify as cash flow.
Cash Flow Hedges
The foreign currency, diesel and forward starting swap contracts are designated as cash flow hedges, and as such, the effective portion of unrealized changes in market value have been recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income and are reclassified to earnings during the period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses from hedge ineffectiveness are recognized in current earnings.
Foreign Currency Contracts
Newmont utilizes foreign currency contracts to reduce the variability of the US dollar amount of forecasted foreign currency expenditures caused by changes in exchange rates. Newmont hedges a portion of the Companys A$ and NZ$ denominated operating expenditures which results in a blended rate realized each period. The hedging instruments are fixed forward contracts with expiration dates ranging up to five years from the date of issue. The principal hedging objective is reduction in the volatility of realized period-on-period $/A$ and $/NZ$ rates, respectively.
In June 2011, Newmont began hedging a portion of the Companys A$ denominated capital expenditures related to the Akyem project in Africa utilizing fixed forward contracts with expiration dates up to three years.
Newmont had the following foreign currency derivative contracts outstanding at March 31, 2013:

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

The loss for the effective portion of the forward starting swaps reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive income is included in Interest Expense. |
(2) | The ineffective portion recognized for cash flow hedges is included in Other Income, net. |
The amount to be reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax to income for derivative instruments during the next 12 months is a gain of approximately $58.
Provisional Copper and Gold Sales
The Companys provisional copper and gold sales contain an embedded derivative that is required to be separated from the host contract for accounting purposes. The host contract is the receivable from the sale of the gold and copper concentrates at the prevailing indices prices at the time of sale. The embedded derivative, which does not qualify for hedge accounting, is marked to market through earnings each period prior to final settlement.
LME copper prices averaged $3.60 per pound during the first quarter of 2013, consistent with the Companys recorded average provisional price before mark-to-market losses and treatment and refining charges. During the first quarter of 2013, changes in copper prices resulted in a provisional pricing mark-to-market loss of $9 ($0.21 per pound). At March 31, 2013, Newmont had copper sales of 38 million pounds priced at an average of $3.45 per pound, subject to final pricing over the next several months.
The average London P.M. fix for gold was $1,632 per ounce during the first quarter of 2013, consistent with the Companys recorded average provisional price before mark-to-market gains and treatment and refining charges. During the first quarter of 2013, changes in gold prices resulted in a provisional pricing mark-to-market gain of $3 ($2 per ounce). At March 31, 2013, Newmont had gold sales of 104,000 ounces priced at an average of $1,598 per ounce, subject to final pricing over the next several months.

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

NOTE 24 CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following Condensed Consolidating Financial Statements are presented to satisfy disclosure requirements of Rule 3-10(e) of Regulation S-X resulting from the inclusion of Newmont USA Limited (Newmont USA), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Newmont, as a co-registrant with Newmont on debt securities issued under a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed under the Securities Act of 1933 under which securities of Newmont (including debt securities guaranteed by Newmont USA) may be issued (the Shelf Registration Statement). In accordance with Rule 3-10(e) of Regulation S-X, Newmont USA, as the subsidiary guarantor, is 100% owned by Newmont, the guarantees are full and unconditional, and no other subsidiary of Newmont guaranteed any security issued under the Shelf Registration Statement. There are no restrictions on the ability of Newmont or Newmont USA to obtain funds from its subsidiaries by dividend or loan.
At December 31, 2012, errors were identified in the previously reported condensed consolidating financial statements resulting from incorrectly applying the provisions of Rule 3-10(e) of Regulation S-X related to the presentation of the financial information of its subsidiary guarantor, Newmont USA. In the previously reported information, the Company presented Newmont USA on a consolidated basis with its non-guarantor subsidiaries and under Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X Newmont USA should have presented its investment in subsidiaries based upon its proportionate share of its non-guarantor subsidiaries net assets (similar to the equity method of accounting). In addition, the Company corrected the Newmont Mining Corporation column for investments in subsidiaries previously presented in the Eliminations column. The tables following the revised condensed consolidating financial statements illustrate the effects of the errors, which relate to the columns for Newmont Mining Corporation, Newmont USA, Other Subsidiaries and Eliminations, on previously reported condensed consolidating financial information for the three months ended March 31, 2012.
The errors to the Newmont USA column for the incorrect presentation resulted in no change in previously reported line items for net income attributable to Newmont and stockholders equity. It did however have a significant impact on the previously reported cash balance, and cash flow from operations, investing and financing activities of Newmont USA as a result of the deconsolidation of its subsidiaries and the one line proportionate accounting pick up. Further, the Other Subsidiaries column changed by corresponding adjustments and to give effect to intercompany balances to include the non-guarantor subsidiaries of Newmont USA and the Eliminations column changes as a result of the above changes. In addition, the Company corrected an error in the Newmont Mining Corporation column related to stockholders equity and investment in subsidiaries. This was a result of a gain associated with a partial sale of a subsidiary that was previously included in the Eliminations column. The cash flow statement in the Newmont Mining Corporation column was revised to reflect earnings from subsidiaries, net of dividends received.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
The Company concluded these errors were not material individually or in the aggregate to any of the previously issued financial statements taken as a whole. These errors had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of Newmont or any debt covenants and had no impact on the ability of Newmonts subsidiaries to dividend cash to Newmont. The impact of these corrections to the applicable prior year period is reflected in the revised financial information and notes below.
The Company will revise the June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2012 financial statements to reflect the revisions discussed above in the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods in 2013.

NEWMONT MINING CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
NOTE 25 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
General
The Company follows ASC guidance in accounting for loss contingencies. Accordingly, estimated losses from contingencies are accrued by a charge to income when information available prior to issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that a liability could be incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the contingency are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the contingency and estimated range of loss, if determinable, is made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.
Operating Segments
The Companys operating segments are identified in Note 3. Except as noted in this paragraph, all of the Companys commitments and contingencies specifically described in this Note 25 relate to the Corporate and Other reportable segment. The Hope Bay Mining Ltd. matters relate to the North America reportable segment. The Yanacocha matters relate to the South America reportable segment. The PTNNT matters relate to the Indonesia reportable segment.
Environmental Matters
The Companys mining and exploration activities are subject to various laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations are continually changing and are generally becoming more restrictive. The Company conducts its operations so as to protect the public health and environment and believes its operations are in compliance with applicable laws and regulations in all material respects. The Company has made, and expects to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations, but cannot predict the full amount of such future expenditures.
Estimated future reclamation costs are based principally on legal and regulatory requirements. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $1,350 and $1,341, respectively, were accrued for reclamation costs relating to currently or recently producing mineral properties in accordance with asset retirement obligation guidance. The current portions of $61 and $62 at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, are included in Other current liabilities.
In addition, the Company is involved in several matters concerning environmental obligations associated with former mining activities. Generally, these matters concern developing and implementing remediation plans at the various sites involved. The Company believes that the related environmental obligations associated with these sites are similar in nature with respect to the development of remediation plans, their risk profile and the compliance required to meet general environmental standards. Based upon the Companys best estimate of its liability for these matters, $195 and $198 were accrued for such obligations at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. These amounts are included in Other current liabilities and Reclamation and remediation liabilities. Depending upon the ultimate resolution of these matters, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the liability for these matters could be as much as 115% greater or 5% lower than the amount accrued at March 31, 2013. The amounts accrued are reviewed periodically based upon facts and circumstances available at the time. Changes in estimates are recorded in Reclamation and remediation in the period estimates are revised.
Details about certain of the more significant matters involved are discussed below.
Newmont Mining Corporation
Empire Mine. On July 19, 2012, the California Department of Parks and Recreation (Parks) served Newmont, New Verde Mines LLC, Newmont North America Exploration Limited, Newmont Realty Company and Newmont USA Limited with a complaint for damages and declaratory relief under CERCLA, specifically for costs associated with water treatment at the Empire Mine State Park and for a declaration that Newmont is liable for past and future response costs, as well as indemnification to Parks. In 1975 Parks purchased the Empire Mine site in Grass Valley, California from Newmont to create a historic state park featuring the mining of the Empire Mine. Parks has operated the Empire Mine Site for over 35 years. Newmont intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit. Newmont cannot reasonably predict the outcome of this matter.

NEWMONT MINING CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
Newmont USA Limited - 100% Newmont Owned
Ross-Adams Mine Site. By letter dated June 5, 2007, the U.S. Forest Service notified Newmont that it had expended approximately $0.3 in response costs to address environmental conditions at the Ross-Adams mine in Prince of Wales, Alaska, and requested Newmont USA Limited pay those costs and perform an Engineering Evaluation/Cost Analysis (EE/CA) to assess what future response activities might need to be completed at the site. Newmont intends to vigorously defend any formal claims by the EPA. Newmont has agreed to perform the EE/CA. Newmont cannot reasonably predict the likelihood or outcome of any future action against it arising from this matter.
Hope Bay Mining Ltd. - 100% Newmont Owned
In July 2011 Environment Canada Enforcement Officers discovered a release of drill water containing calcium chloride on Hope Bay Mining Ltd. (HBML) property in Nunavut, Canada. Orbit Garant Drilling Inc. (Orbit) operated a diamond drill rig on the HBML property. On February 13, 2013, HBML received service of a summons and charges from a Judge for Nunavut alleging violation of the Fisheries Act relating to the release of drill water and alleged failure to report a discharge. Orbit operated the drill at issue in the summons. Total potential fines and penalties for proven charges of this nature could be up to $1. Newmont cannot reasonably predict the outcome of this matter.
Other Legal Matters
Minera Yanacocha S.R.L. (Yanacocha) - 51.35% Newmont Owned
Choropampa. In June 2000, a transport contractor of Yanacocha spilled approximately 151 kilograms of elemental mercury near the town of Choropampa, Peru, which is located 53 miles (85 kilometers) southwest of the Yanacocha mine. Elemental mercury is not used in Yanacochas operations but is a by-product of gold mining and was sold to a Lima firm for use in medical instruments and industrial applications. A comprehensive health and environmental remediation program was undertaken by Yanacocha in response to the incident. In August 2000, Yanacocha paid under protest a fine of 1,740,000 Peruvian soles (approximately $0.5) to the Peruvian government. Yanacocha has entered into settlement agreements with a number of individuals impacted by the incident. As compensation for the disruption and inconvenience caused by the incident, Yanacocha entered into agreements with and provided a variety of public works in the three communities impacted by this incident. Yanacocha cannot predict the likelihood of additional expenditures related to this matter.
Additional lawsuits relating to the Choropampa incident were filed against Yanacocha in the local courts of Cajamarca, Peru, in May 2002 by over 900 Peruvian citizens. A significant number of the plaintiffs in these lawsuits entered into settlement agreements with Yanacocha prior to filing such claims. In April 2008, the Peruvian Supreme Court upheld the validity of these settlement agreements, which the Company expects to result in the dismissal of all claims brought by previously settled plaintiffs. Yanacocha has also entered into settlement agreements with approximately 350 additional plaintiffs. The claims asserted by approximately 200 plaintiffs remain. In 2011, Yanacocha was served with 23 complaints alleging grounds to nullify the settlements entered into between Yanacocha and the plaintiffs. Yanacocha has answered the complaints and the court has dismissed several of the matters and the plaintiffs have filed appeals. All appeals were referred to the Civil Court of Cajamarca, which affirmed the decisions of the lower court judge. The plaintiffs have filed appeals of such orders before the Supreme Court. Yanacocha will continue to vigorously defend its position. Neither the Company nor Yanacocha can reasonably estimate the ultimate loss relating to such claims.
Administrative Actions. The Peruvian government agency responsible for environmental evaluation and inspection, Organismo Evaluacion y Fiscalizacion Ambiental (OEFA), conducts bi-annual reviews of the Yanacocha site. In mid-2011 and in March 2013, OEFA issued notices of alleged violations of OEFA standards to Yanacocha relating to past inspections. In April 2013, OEFA issued a finding and penalty with respect to three 2011 allegations in the amount of $.1. Total fines for all outstanding OEFA alleged violations could range from $.1 to $17.4. Yanacocha is responding to all notices of alleged violations, but cannot predict the outcome of the agency allegations.

PT Newmont Nusa Tenggara (PTNNT) 31.5% Newmont Owned
Under the Batu Hijau Contract of Work, beginning in 2006 and continuing through 2010, a portion of PTNNTs shares were required to be offered for sale, first, to the Indonesian government or, second, to Indonesian nationals, equal to the difference between the following percentages and the percentage of shares already owned by the Indonesian government or Indonesian nationals (if such number is positive): 23% by March 31, 2006; 30% by March 31, 2007; 37% by March 31, 2008; 44% by March 31, 2009; and 51% by March 31, 2010. As PT Pukuafu Indah (PTPI), an Indonesian national, owned a 20% interest in PTNNT at all relevant times, in 2006, a 3% interest was required to be offered for sale and, in each of 2007 through 2010, an additional 7% interest was required to be offered (for an aggregate 31% interest). The price at which such interests were offered for sale to the Indonesian parties was the fair market value of such interest considering PTNNT as a going concern, as agreed with the Indonesian government. Following certain disputes and an arbitration with the Indonesian government, in November and December 2009, sale agreements were concluded pursuant to which the 2006, 2007 and 2008 shares were sold to PT Multi Daerah Bersaing (PTMDB), the nominee of the local governments, and the 2009 shares were sold to PTMDB in February 2010, resulting in PTMDB owning a 24% interest in PTNNT.
On December 17, 2010, the Ministry of Energy & Mineral Resources, acting on behalf of the Indonesian government, accepted the offer to acquire the final 7% interest in PTNNT. Subsequently, the Indonesian government designated Pusat Investasi Pemerintah (PIP), an agency of the Ministry of Finance, as the entity that will buy the final stake. On May 6, 2011, PIP and the foreign shareholders entered into a definitive agreement for the sale and purchase of the final 7% divestiture stake, subject to receipt of approvals from certain Indonesian government ministries. Subsequent to signing the agreement, a disagreement arose between the Ministry of Finance and the Indonesian parliament in regard to whether parliamentary approval was needed to allow PIP to make the share purchase. In July 2012, the Constitutional Court ruled that parliament approval is required for PIP to use state funds to purchase the shares, which approval has not yet been obtained. Further disputes may arise in regard to the divestiture of the 2010 shares.
Effective January 1, 2011, the local government in the region where the Batu Hijau mine is located commenced the enforcement of local regulations that purport to require PTNNT to pay additional taxes based on revenue and the value of PTNNTs contracts. In addition, the regulations purport to require PTNNT to obtain certain export-related documents from the regional government for purposes of shipping copper concentrate. PTNNT is required to and has obtained all export related-documents in compliance with the laws and regulations of the central government. PTNNT believes that the new regional regulations are not enforceable as they expressly contradict higher level Indonesian laws that set out the permissible taxes that can be imposed by a regional government and all effective export requirements. PTNNTs position is supported by Indonesias Ministry of Energy & Mineral Resources, Ministry of Trade, and the provincial government. To date, PTNNT has not been forced to comply with these new contradictory regional regulations. On February 4, 2011, PTNNT filed legal proceedings seeking to have the regulations declared null and void because they conflict with the laws of Indonesia. Subsequently, the Ministry of Home Affairs issued a decree declaring these local regulations to be contrary to Indonesian law and thus unenforceable. Further disputes with the local government could arise in relation to these regulations. PTNNT intends to vigorously defend its position in this dispute.
Additionally, in September 2011, WALHI brought an administrative law claim against Indonesias Ministry of Environment to challenge the May 2011 renewal of PTNNTs submarine tailings permit. PTNNT and the regional government of KSB (KSB) filed separate applications for intervention into the proceedings, both of which were accepted by the Administrative Court. KSB intervened on the side of WALHI, and PTNNT joined on the side of the Ministry of Environment. On April 3, 2012, the Administrative Court ruled in favor of the Ministry of Environment and PTNNT, finding that the Ministry of Environment properly renewed the permit in accordance with Indonesian law and regulations. WALHI appealed the verdict. On October 2, 2012, the High Administrative Law Court rejected WALHIs appeal, after which WALHI filed a notice to appeal the case to the Supreme Court. PTNNT will continue to defend its submarine tailings permit and is confident that the Ministry of Environment acted properly in renewing PTNNTs permit.
NWG Investments Inc. v. Fronteer Gold Inc.
In April 2011, Newmont acquired Fronteer Gold Inc. (Fronteer).
Fronteer acquired NewWest Gold Corporation (NewWest Gold) in September 2007. At the time of that acquisition, NWG Investments Inc. (NWG) owned approximately 86% of NewWest Gold and an individual named Jacob Safra owned or controlled 100% of NWG. Prior to its acquisition of NewWest Gold, Fronteer entered into a June 2007 lock-up agreement with NWG providing that, among other things, NWG would support Fronteers acquisition of NewWest Gold. At that time, Fronteer owned approximately 42% of Aurora Energy Resources Inc. (Aurora), which, among other things, had a uranium exploration project in Labrador, Canada.

(dollars in millions, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
NWG contends that, during the negotiations leading up to the lock-up agreement, Fronteer represented to NWG that Aurora would commence uranium mining in Labrador by 2013, that this was a firm date, that Fronteer was not aware of any obstacle to doing so, that Aurora faced no serious environmental issues in Labrador and that Auroras competitors faced greater delays in commencing uranium mining. NWG further contends that it entered into the lock-up agreement and agreed to support Fronteers acquisition of NewWest Gold in reliance upon these purported representations. On October 11, 2007, less than three weeks after the Fronteer-NewWest Gold transaction closed, a member of the Nunatsiavut Assembly introduced a motion calling for the adoption of a moratorium on uranium mining in Labrador. On April 8, 2008, the Nunatsiavut Assembly adopted a three-year moratorium on uranium mining in Labrador. NWG contends that Fronteer was aware during the negotiations of the NWG/Fronteer lock-up agreement that the Nunatsiavut Assembly planned on adopting this moratorium and that its adoption would preclude Aurora from commencing uranium mining by 2013, but Fronteer nonetheless fraudulently induced NWG to enter into the lock-up agreement.
On September 24, 2012, NWG served a summons and complaint on NMC, and then amended the complaint to add Newmont Canada Holdings ULC as a defendant. The complaint also names Fronteer Gold Inc and Mark ODea as defendants. The complaint seeks rescission of the merger between Fronteer and NewWest Gold and $750 in damages. Newmont intends to defend this matter, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome.
Other Commitments and Contingencies
Tax contingencies are provided for in accordance with ASC income tax guidance (see Note 7).
The Company has minimum royalty obligations on one of its producing mines in Nevada for the life of the mine. Amounts paid as a minimum royalty (where production royalties are less than the minimum obligation) in any year are recoverable in future years when the minimum royalty obligation is exceeded. Although the minimum royalty requirement may not be met in a particular year, the Company expects that over the mine life, gold production will be sufficient to meet the minimum royalty requirements. Minimum royalty payments payable are $60 in 2013, $38 in 2014 through 2017 and $317 thereafter.
As part of its ongoing business and operations, the Company and its affiliates are required to provide surety bonds, bank letters of credit and bank guarantees as financial support for various purposes, including environmental reclamation, exploration permitting, workers compensation programs and other general corporate purposes. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were $1,835 and $1,755, respectively, of outstanding letters of credit, surety bonds and bank guarantees. The surety bonds, letters of credit and bank guarantees reflect fair value as a condition of their underlying purpose and are subject to fees competitively determined in the market place. The obligations associated with these instruments are generally related to performance requirements that the Company addresses through its ongoing operations. As the specific requirements are met, the beneficiary of the associated instrument cancels and/or returns the instrument to the issuing entity. Certain of these instruments are associated with operating sites with long-lived assets and will remain outstanding until closure. Generally, bonding requirements associated with environmental regulation are becoming more restrictive. However, the Company believes it is in compliance with all applicable bonding obligations and will be able to satisfy future bonding requirements through existing or alternative means, as they arise.
Newmont is from time to time involved in various legal proceedings related to its business. Except in the above described proceedings, management does not believe that adverse decisions in any pending or threatened proceeding or that amounts that may be required to be paid by reason thereof will have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition or results of operations.

Advancing our project pipeline.
We remain focused on the progression of our next generation of mining projects. Approximately 40% of our 2013 capital expenditures will be allocated as development capital, including the Akyem project, the Phoenix Copper Leach project, the Ahafo Mill Expansion, the Conga project and other expansion projects in Nevada and at La Herradura, with the remaining 60% expected to be spent on sustaining capital. Additional capital investment is also possible at the Merian project in Suriname in 2013 pending the outcome of further dialogue with the government and project economic evaluation. 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.
Our opportunities in the Execution phase of development comprise a significant part of the Companys growth strategy and include Akyem in Ghana, Phoenix Copper Leach in Nevada and Conga in Peru, as described further below.
Akyem, Ghana. Construction activities continue to progress on schedule and on budget. First production is expected in late 2013. Gold production is expected to be 350,000 to 450,000 ounces per year at Costs applicable to sales of $500 to $650 per ounce for the first five years of the mines operating life of approximately 16 years (based on current gold reserves). Capital costs are estimated at $950 to $1,050, of which $747 have been incurred at March 31, 2013. At December 31, 2012, we reported 7.4 million ounces of gold reserves at Akyem.
38
Phoenix Copper Leach, Nevada. The Board of Directors authorized full funding for the Phoenix Copper Leach project in April 2012. Copper production is expected to be approximately 20 million pounds per year for the first five years of production at Costs applicable to sales of $1.75 to $2.00 per pound, which are expected to be reported under the by-product method of accounting. First production is expected in late 2013. Capital costs are expected to be $170 to $215, of which $106 have been incurred at March 31, 2013.
Conga, Peru. Due to local political and community protests, construction and development activities at the Conga project were largely suspended in November 2011. The results of the Peruvian Central Government initiated Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) independent review were announced on April 20, 2012 and confirmed our initial EIA met Peruvian and International standards. The review made recommendations to provide additional water capacity and social funds, which we have largely accepted. We announced our decision to move the project forward on a water first approach on June 22, 2012. Spending on the project in 2013 is anticipated to be approximately $300, focusing on building water reservoirs, completing the last engineering activities, and accepting delivery of the main equipment purchases. Total property, plant and mine development was $1,519 at March 31, 2013. At December 31, 2012 we reported 6.5 million attributable ounces of gold reserves and 1,690 million attributable pounds of copper reserves at Conga. Construction of Conga and the implementation of the independent EIA review recommendations will continue provided it can be done in a safe manner with risk-adjusted returns that justify future investment. Should we be unable to continue with the current development plan at Conga, we may reprioritize and reallocate capital to development alternatives which may result in a potential accounting impairment.
We continue to advance earlier stage development assets through our project pipeline in our five operating regions. The exploration, construction and operation of these earlier stage development assets may require significant funding if they go into execution. Two of these projects are described further below:
Merian, Suriname. Feasibility study work for the Merian project began in the third quarter of 2011 and was completed in 2012, increasing our equity interest in the joint venture with Alcoa to 80%. We continue to finalize the mineral agreement with the government of Suriname. Once the mineral agreement is approved by the government of Suriname, Newmonts Board of Directors will consider approving the investment to develop the project. The development of the Merian project will allow Newmont to pursue a new district with upside potential and the opportunity to grow and extend the operating life of the South American region. First production is targeted for late 2015 or early 2016 with initial estimated gold production (on a 100% basis) of 350,000 to 450,000 ounces per year. At December 31, 2012, we reported 2.9 million attributable ounces of gold reserves at Merian.
Long Canyon, Nevada. During 2012, the project entered the selection and confirmation stage as we further develop our understanding of Long Canyon and the district. We have submitted the Plan-of-Operations to the Bureau of Land Management in support of our Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). We continue to make progress on the exploration program. A total of 85 kilometers of drilling was completed in 2012 and we anticipate an additional 65 kilometers to be drilled in 2013. Our intention is to bring the project into production in 2017.

Consolidated Financial Results
Net income attributable to Newmont stockholders for the first quarter of 2013 was $315, or $0.63 per share, compared to $490, or $0.99 per share, for the first quarter of 2012. Results for the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 were impacted by lower gold and copper production, lower average realized gold and copper prices, and higher gold and copper unit costs, partially offset by lower exploration, lower advanced project costs and lower Hope Bay care and maintenance costs.
Gold Sales decreased 17% in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 due to decreased sales volume and a lower average realized gold price. The following analysis summarizes the changes in consolidated gold sales:

Costs applicable to sales for gold increased in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 due to higher mining and milling costs and lower by-product credits. Costs applicable to sales for copper was also impacted in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 by higher mining and milling costs and higher co-product allocation of costs to copper at Boddington. For a complete discussion regarding variations in operations, see Results of Consolidated Operations below.
Amortization increased in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 due largely to higher mine development costs and asset retirement costs at Yanacocha as well as higher production from Boddington. We expect Amortization expense to be approximately $1,050 to $1,100 in 2013.

Exploration expense decreased $29, or 33% in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 due to a decrease in both brownfields and greenfields expenditures in all our regions. Exploration activities in a number of countries including Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea and Cote dIvoire have been discontinued. We expect Exploration expense to be approximately $250 to $300 in 2013, focused primarily on our brownfields programs at Carlin, Long Canyon and Phoenix in Nevada, La Herradura in Mexico, Jundee and Tanami in Australia and Ahafo in Africa, whereas in the greenfields programs the focus will be on Nevada, Suriname-French Guiana, Andes and West Africa.

We expect Advanced projects, research and development expenses to be approximately $350 to $400 in 2013, focused primarily on Long Canyon and underground exploration drifts in Nevada and the start-up of Akyem in Africa.
General and administrative expenses increased slightly in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 due to increased salaries and benefits. We expect 2013 General and administrative expenses to be approximately $200 to $250.
Other expense, net was $100 and $120 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease is mainly due to lower expenses for Hope Bay care and maintenance, Community development, and Regional administration, partially offset by restructuring charges and non-cash expense related to the TMAC transaction.
Other income, net was $26 and $33 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease is primarily related to the reduction of allowance for loan receivable in 2012, lower income from developing projects and gain on asset sales, partially offset by lower losses for marketable securities impairment and foreign currency exchange.
Interest expense, net increased by $13 in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 due to the issuance of the 2022 and 2042 Senior Notes during the first quarter of 2012, partially offset by higher capitalized interest in 2013. We expect 2013 Interest expense, net to be approximately $200 to $250.
Income and mining tax expense during the first quarter of 2013 was $181 resulting in an effective tax rate of 33%. Income and mining tax expense during the first quarter of 2012 was $343 for an effective tax rate of 33%. The effective tax rates in the first quarter of 2013 and 2012 are different from the United States statutory rate of 35% primarily due to valuation allowances, mining tax, U.S. percentage depletion and non-cash expense related to the TMAC transaction. For a complete discussion of the factors that influence our effective tax rate, see Managements Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Newmonts Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed February 22, 2013. We expect the 2013 full year tax rate to be approximately 30% to 32%, assuming an average gold price of $1,500 per ounce for the remainder of the year.
45
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests decreased to $42 in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $113 in the first quarter of 2012 as a result of decreased earnings at Minera Yanacocha and Batu Hijau as well as the TMAC transaction in March 2013.
Income (loss) from discontinued operations includes a reduction in the Holt property royalty liability. During the first quarter of 2012, the Company recorded an additional $ 71 charge, net of tax benefits of $4, to reflect an increase in future expected production at the Holt property. Due to the nature of the sliding scale royalty calculation, changes in expected production and the gold price have a significant impact on the fair value of the liability.

First quarter 2013 compared to 2012
Consolidated gold ounces produced decreased 13% due to a build of in-process inventory as well as lower mill grade at Ahafo, lower mill grade at Yanacocha, and lower grade and recovery at Carlin and lower grade and throughput at Twin Creeks. Consolidated copper pounds produced increased 2% due to higher copper grade at Boddington largely offset by processing lower grade stockpiles at Batu Hijau.
Costs applicable to sales per consolidated gold ounce sold increased 22% due to lower production from Nevada, Yanacocha, Other Australia/New Zealand, Indonesia, and Africa. Costs applicable to sales per consolidated copper pound sold increased 11% due to lower production at Batu Hijau and higher co-product costs allocated to copper at Boddington.
Amortization per consolidated gold ounce sold increased 42% due to higher mine development costs and higher asset retirement costs at Yanacocha and lower production. Amortization per consolidated copper pound sold increased 18% due to timing of copper sales at Batu Hijau and higher co-product allocation to copper at Boddington.
We continue to expect 2013 gold production of approximately 4.8 to 5.1 million attributable ounces at consolidated Costs applicable to sales per ounce of approximately $675 to $750 and 2013 copper production of approximately 150 to 170 million attributable pounds at consolidated Costs applicable to sales per pound of approximately $2.25 to $2.50.

First quarter 2013 compared to 2012
Nevada, USA. Gold ounces produced decreased 12% due to lower grade and recovery at Mill 5 and Mill 6 as well as lower tons and grade at the Twin Creeks autoclave, partially offset by new production at Emigrant and higher throughput at Phoenix. Costs applicable to sales per ounce increased 25% due to lower ounces sold and lower capitalized mine development activities in 2013 compared to 2012. Amortization per ounce increased 40% due to lower ounces sold.
La Herradura, Mexico. Gold ounces produced increased 2% due to higher leach placement and grade. Costs applicable to sales per ounce increased 23% due to mining additional waste tons compared to 2012.
We continue to expect gold production in North America of approximately 2.0 to 2.1 million ounces at Costs applicable to sales per ounce of approximately $600 to $650 in 2013.

First quarter 2013 compared to 2012
Boddington, Australia. Gold ounces produced increased 9% and copper pounds produced increased 29% due to higher mill grade. Costs applicable to sales increased 12% per ounce and increased 21% per pound from the prior year quarter due to a higher strip ratio, higher mill maintenance costs, and the impact of the carbon tax which took effect in July 2012. Copper costs applicable to sales was also affected by the higher co-product cost allocated to copper compared to the prior year quarter.
Other Australia/New Zealand. Gold ounces produced decreased 8% due to lower mill grade at Jundee, Kalgoorlie, and Tanami coupled with lower throughput at Tanami and partly offset by higher throughput at Waihi. Costs applicable to sales per ounce increased 27% primarily due to lower production, higher operating costs, and the impact of the carbon tax. Amortization per ounce increased 31% due to lower production at Kalgoorlie, Tanami, and Jundee coupled with higher mine development costs at Tanami and Jundee.
We continue to expect attributable gold production for Australia/New Zealand of approximately 1.6 to 1.7 million ounces at Costs applicable to sales per ounce of approximately $900 to $1,000 in 2013. We expect attributable copper production for Australia/New Zealand to be approximately 70 to 80 million pounds at Costs applicable to sales per pound of approximately $2.45 to $2.65 in 2013.

Ahafo, Ghana. Gold ounces produced decreased 29% due to an increase of in-process inventory and lower mill grade, partly offset by higher recovery. Costs applicable to sales per ounce decreased 2% due to lower mining and milling costs compared to the prior year quarter.
We continue to expect gold production in Africa of approximately 625,000 to 675,000 ounces at Costs applicable to sales per ounce of approximately $525 to $575 in 2013.
All-In Sustaining Costs
All-in sustaining costs include Costs applicable to sales, General and administrative, Exploration, Advanced projects, research and development, Other expense, net and sustaining capital expenditures. The sum of these costs, less copper sales is divided by gold ounces sold to determine a per ounce amount. All-in sustaining costs are non-GAAP financial measures. See page 53 for a reconciliation.
All-in sustaining costs per ounce were $1,086 ($1,115 attributable) and $1,016 ($1,046 attributable) for first quarter 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
Our foreign operations sell their gold and copper production based on U.S. dollar metal prices. Approximately 49% and 43% of our Costs applicable to sales were paid in local currencies during the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively. Variations in the local currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar at our foreign mining operations increased consolidated Costs applicable to sales per ounce by approximately $4, net of hedging gains and losses, during the first quarter of 2013 as compared to the first quarter of 2012.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Provided from Operating Activities
Net cash provided from continuing operations was $439 in the first quarter of 2013, a decrease of $174 from the first quarter of 2012, primarily due to lower gold production and a lower average realized gold price partially offset by a net decrease in operating assets and liabilities. The decrease in net operating assets and liabilities of $68 in the first quarter of 2013 compared to the first quarter of 2012 is due to decreases in account receivables and other assets.

Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities decreased to $507 during the first quarter of 2013 compared to $855 during the same period of 2012, respectively. Additions to property, plant and mine development were as follows:

Purchases of marketable securities. During the first quarter of 2013 we purchased marketable equity securities of $1. During the first quarter of 2012, we purchased corporate marketable debt securities of $143 (short-term $55 and long-term $88).
Proceeds from sale of other assets. During the first quarter of 2013, we received $25 primarily from the sale of equipment at Conga. During the first quarter of 2012 we received $12 primarily from the sale of land and other assets.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided from (used in) financing activities was $(105) and $1,094 during the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Proceeds from and repayment of debt. During the first quarter of 2013, we received net proceeds from debt of $80 from the PTNNT revolving credit facility. During the first quarter of 2012, we received net proceeds from debt of $3,346, including $1,246 under our revolving credit facility, $1,479 from the issuance of senior notes due in 2022 and $983 from the issuance of senior notes due in 2042. Proceeds from the issuance of debt were partially offset by the settlement of forward starting interest rate swaps of $362, repayment of $1,285 under our revolving credit facility, $517 for repayment of the 2012 Convertible Senior Notes and $105 related to exercising the early purchase option related to the sale-leaseback of the refractory ore treatment plant in Nevada (classified as a capital lease). At March 31, 2013, $394 of the $3,000 revolving credit facility was used to secure the issuance of letters of credit, primarily supporting reclamation obligations (see Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements below).
Scheduled minimum debt repayments are $10 for the remainder of 2013, $552 in 2014, $11 in 2015, $11 in 2016, $742 in 2017 and $5,063 thereafter. We expect to be able to fund debt maturities and capital expenditures from Net cash provided by operating activities, short-term investments, existing cash balances and available credit facilities.
At March 31, 2013 and 2012, we were in compliance with all required debt covenants and other restrictions related to debt agreements.
Payment of conversion premium on debt. In February 2012, we elected to pay in cash a conversion premium of $172 upon repayment of the 2012 Convertible Senior Notes in lieu of issuing common shares.
Proceeds from stock issuance, net. We received proceeds of $1 and $2 during the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively, from the issuance of common stock, primarily related to employee stock sales and option exercises.
Sale of noncontrolling interests. We received $32 in proceeds, net of transaction costs, during the first quarter of 2013 related to the TMAC transaction.
Acquisition of noncontrolling interests. In the first quarter of 2013, we advanced certain funds to PTPI, an unrelated noncontrolling shareholder of PTNNT, in accordance with a loan agreement. Our economic interest in PTNNT did not change as a result of these transactions.
Dividends paid to common stockholders. We declared regular quarterly dividends totaling $0.425 and $0.35 per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Additionally, Newmont Mining Corporation of Canada Limited, a subsidiary of the Company, declared regular quarterly dividends on its exchangeable shares totaling C$0.4319 per share through March 31, 2013 and C$0.35 through March 31, 2012. We paid dividends of $211 and $173 to common stockholders in the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Other Liquidity Matters
At March 31, 2013, the Company had $1,378 in cash and cash equivalents, of which $1,244 was held in foreign subsidiaries and is primarily held in U.S. dollar denominated accounts with the remainder in foreign currencies readily convertible to U.S. dollars. At March 31, 2013, $455 of the consolidated cash and cash equivalents was attributable to noncontrolling interests primarily related to our Indonesian and Peruvian operations which is being held to fund those operations and development projects. At March 31, 2013, $327 in consolidated cash and cash equivalents ($202 attributable to Newmont) was held at certain foreign subsidiaries that, if repatriated may be subject to withholding taxes, which would generate foreign tax credits in the U.S. As a result, we expect that there would be minimal U.S. tax liability upon repatriation of these amounts after considering available foreign tax credits. All other amounts represent earnings that are taxed in the U.S. on a current basis due to being held in U.S. subsidiaries or non-U.S. subsidiaries that are flow-through entities for U.S. tax purposes.
We believe that our liquidity and capital resources from U.S. operations and flow-through foreign subsidiaries are adequate to fund our U.S. operations and corporate activities.
Our mining and exploration activities are subject to various federal and state laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. We have made, and expect to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations, but cannot predict the full amount of such future expenditures. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, $1,350 and $1,341, respectively, were accrued for reclamation costs relating to currently or recently producing mineral properties.
In addition, we are involved in several matters concerning environmental obligations associated with former mining activities. Based upon our best estimate of our liability for these matters, $195 and $198 were accrued for such obligations at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. We spent $4 and $22 during the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively, for environmental obligations related to the former, primarily historic, mining activities and have classified $19 as a current liability at March 31, 2013.
During the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, capital expenditures were approximately $20 and $41, respectively, to comply with environmental regulations. Ongoing costs to comply with environmental regulations have not been a significant component of operating costs.
For more information on the Companys reclamation and remediation liabilities, see Notes 4 and 25 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standard meaning prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted net income
Management of the Company uses Adjusted net income to evaluate the Companys operating performance, and for planning and forecasting future business operations. The Company believes the use of Adjusted net income allows investors and analysts to compare results of the continuing operations of the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries relating to the production and sale of minerals to similar operating results of other mining companies, by excluding exceptional or unusual items. Managements determination of the components of Adjusted net income are evaluated periodically and based, in part, on a review of non-GAAP financial measures used by mining industry analysts. Net income attributable to Newmont stockholders is reconciled to Adjusted net income as follows:

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

All-In Sustaining Costs
All-in sustaining costs are non-GAAP financial measures. This measure includes Costs applicable to sales, General and administrative, Exploration, Advanced projects, research and development, Other expense, net and sustaining capital expenditures. The sum of these costs, less copper sales is divided by gold ounces sold to determine a per ounce amount. Attributable all-in sustaining costs are based on our economic interest in production from our mines. For operations where we hold less than a 100% economic share in the production, we exclude the share of gold or copper production attributable to the noncontrolling interest. We include attributable all-in sustaining costs to provide management, investors and analysts with information with which to compare our performance to other gold producers. All-in sustaining costs 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 World Gold Council project to define all-in sustaining costs is ongoing and a final standard is expected in 2013. We expect to conform our disclosure of all-in sustaining costs to the measure that is ultimately approved by the World Gold Council.

Operating margin per ounce/pound
Operating margin per ounce/pound are non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are calculated by subtracting the costs applicable to sales per ounce of gold and per pound of copper from the average realized gold price per ounce and copper price per pound, respectively. These measures are calculated on a consistent basis for the periods presented on a consolidated basis. Operating margin per ounce/pound statistics are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
(dollars in millions, except per ounce and per pound amounts).
Metal Prices
Changes in the market price of gold significantly affect our profitability and cash flow. Gold prices can fluctuate widely due to numerous factors, such as demand; forward selling by producers; central bank sales, purchases and lending; investor sentiment; the strength of the U.S. dollar; inflation, deflation, or other general price instability; and global mine production levels. Changes in the market price of copper also affect our profitability and cash flow. Copper is traded on established international exchanges and copper prices generally reflect market supply and demand, but can also be influenced by speculative trading in the commodity or by currency exchange rates.
Hedging
Our strategy is to provide shareholders with leverage to changes in gold and copper prices by selling our production at spot market prices. Consequently, we do not hedge our gold and copper sales. We have and will continue to manage certain risks associated with commodity input costs, interest rates and foreign currencies using the derivative market.
By using derivatives, we are affected by credit risk, market risk and market liquidity risk. Credit risk is the risk that a third party might fail to fulfill its performance obligations under the terms of a financial instrument. We mitigate credit risk by entering into derivatives with high credit quality counterparties, limiting the amount of exposure to each counterparty, and monitoring the financial condition of the counterparties. Market risk is the risk that the fair value of a derivative might be adversely affected by a change in underlying commodity prices, interest rates, or currency exchange rates, and that this in turn affects our financial condition. We manage market risk by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken. We mitigate this potential risk to our financial condition by establishing trading agreements with counterparties under which we are not required to post any collateral or make any margin calls on our derivatives. Our counterparties cannot require settlement solely because of an adverse change in the fair value of a derivative. Market liquidity risk is the risk that a derivative cannot be eliminated quickly, by either liquidating it or by establishing an offsetting position. Under the terms of our trading agreements, counterparties cannot require us to immediately settle outstanding derivatives, except upon the occurrence of customary events of default such as covenant breaches, including financial covenants, insolvency or bankruptcy. We further mitigate market liquidity risk by spreading out the maturity of our derivatives over time.
56
Cash Flow Hedges
We utilize foreign currency contracts to reduce the variability of the US dollar amount of forecasted foreign currency expenditures caused by changes in exchange rates. We hedge a portion of our A$ and NZ$ denominated operating expenditures which results in a blended rate realized each period. The hedging instruments are fixed forward contracts with expiration dates ranging up to five years from the date of issue. The principal hedging objective is reduction in the volatility of realized period-on-period $/A$ and $/NZ$ rates, respectively. We also utilize foreign currency contracts to hedge a portion of the Companys A$ denominated capital expenditures related to the construction of the Akyem project in Africa. The hedging instruments are fixed forward contracts with expiration dates ranging up to three years. We use diesel contracts to reduce the variability of our operating cost exposure related to diesel prices of fuel consumed at our Nevada operations. All of the currency, diesel and forward starting swap contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges of future expenditures, and as such, changes in the market value have been recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income. Gains and losses from hedge ineffectiveness are recognized in current earnings.

The fair value of the diesel derivative contracts was a net asset of $3 and $1 at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
Forward Starting Swap Contracts
During 2011, we entered into forward starting interest rate swap contracts with a total notional value of $2,000. These contracts hedged movements in treasury rates related to a debt issuance that occurred in the first quarter of 2012. On March 8, 2012, we closed its sale of $2,500 senior notes consisting of 3.5% senior notes due 2022 in the principal amount of $1,500 (10-year notes), and 4.875% senior notes due 2042 in the principal amount of $1,000 (30-year notes). As a result of the debt issued, the forward-starting interest rate swaps were settled. The total settlement amount of these swaps was $362, of which $349 represents the effective portion of the hedging instrument included in Accumulated other comprehensive income. The net proceeds from the debt issuance were adjusted by the settlement amount of the swap contracts and included as a financing activity in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow.
Commodity Price Risk
Our provisional copper and gold sales contain an embedded derivative that is required to be separated from the host contract for accounting purposes. The host contract is the receivable from the sale of the gold and copper concentrates at the prevailing indices prices at the time of sale. The embedded derivative, which does not qualify for hedge accounting, is marked to market through earnings each period prior to final settlement.
LME copper prices averaged $3.60 per pound during the first quarter of 2013, consistent with our recorded average provisional price before mark-to-market losses and treatment and refining charges. During the first quarter of 2013, changes in copper prices resulted in a provisional pricing mark-to-market loss of $9 ($0.21 per pound). At March 31, 2013, we had copper sales of 38 million pounds priced at an average of $3.45 per pound, subject to final pricing over the next several months. Each $0.10 change in the price for provisionally priced sales would have an approximate $2 effect on our Net income attributable to Newmont stockholders.
The average London P.M. fix for gold was $1,632 per ounce during the first quarter of 2013, consistent with our recorded average provisional price before mark-to-market gains and treatment and refining charges. During the first quarter of 2013, changes in gold prices resulted in a provisional pricing mark-to-market gain of $3 ($2 per ounce). At March 31, 2013, we had gold sales of 104,000 ounces priced at an average of $1,598 per ounce, subject to final pricing over the next several months. Each $25 change in the price for provisionally priced gold sales would have an approximate $2 effect on our Net income attributable to Newmont stockholders.

ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. |
During the fiscal period covered by this report, the Companys management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)). Based on such evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its reports is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls
The Company maintains a system of internal control over financial reporting that is designed to provide reasonable assurance that its books and records accurately reflect transactions and that established policies and procedures are followed. The Company is implementing an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system on a staged basis at its most significant subsidiaries around the world, excluding Indonesia. The Company began the implementation of the ERP system in North America during the second quarter of 2012 and continued with the implementation in South America during the third quarter of 2012, Australia/New Zealand during the fourth quarter of 2012 and Africa in the first quarter of 2013, which resulted in a change to its system of internal control over financial reporting. The Company is implementing the global ERP system to improve standardization and automation, and not in response to a deficiency in its internal control over financial reporting. The Company believes that the implementation of the ERP system and related changes to internal controls will enhance its internal controls over financial reporting while providing the ability to scale its business in the future. See Item 1A in the Companys most recently filed Form 10-K for risk factors related to the implementation and integration of information technology systems. The Company has taken the necessary steps to monitor and maintain appropriate internal control over financial reporting during this period of change and will continue to evaluate the operating effectiveness of related key controls during subsequent periods.

In addition to strong leadership and involvement from all levels of the organization, these programs and procedures form the cornerstone of safety at Newmont, ensuring that employees are provided a safe and healthy environment and are intended to reduce workplace accidents, incidents and losses, comply with all mining-related regulations and provide support for both regulators and the industry to improve mine safety.
In addition, we have established our Rapid Response process to mitigate and prevent the escalation of adverse consequences if existing risk management controls fail, particularly if an incident may have the potential to seriously impact the safety of employees, the community or the environment. This process provides appropriate support to an affected site to complement their technical response to an incident, so as to reduce the impact by considering the environmental, strategic, legal, financial and public image aspects of the incident, to ensure communications are being carried out in accordance with legal and ethical requirements and to identify actions in addition to those addressing the immediate hazards.
The operation of our U.S. based mines is subject to regulation by the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the Mine Act). MSHA inspects our mines on a regular basis and issues various citations and orders when it believes a violation has occurred under the Mine Act. Following passage of The Mine Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006, MSHA significantly increased the numbers of citations and orders charged against mining operations. The dollar penalties assessed for citations issued has also increased in recent years.
