Explanation of Responses:
*The reported transaction is a result of the issuance by Newmont Mining
Corporation ("NMC") of 4,651,163 shares of its common stock in a public
offering on January 18, 1996. As part of a transaction entered into on March
18, 1994 between NMC and Newmont Gold Company (the "Issuer") to combine the
operations of NMC and the Issuer (the "Transaction"), it was contemplated
that, as closely as possible, an equality between the outstanding number of
shares of common stock of NMC and the number of shares of common stock of the
Issuer held by NMC be maintained. In this connection, on January 18, 1996,
the Issuer sold to NMC in a private sale the same number of its shares of
common stock (4,651,163) as NMC issued in its public offering.
All other transactions reported herein relate to common stock options (the
"NGC Options") granted by the Issuer to NMC in connection with the
Transaction. The NGC Option exercises and cancellations reported herein
result from exercises and cancellations of comparable employee stock options
of NMC.
