NEWMONT GOLD COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(1) Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
These unaudited interim financial statements of Newmont Gold Company and
subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") have been prepared in accordance
with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Such rules and regulations allow the omission of certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, so long as the
statements are not misleading.
In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all
adjustments which are necessary to a fair statement of the results for the
periods presented. All adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. These
interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual
financial statements of the Company included in its 1994 annual report on
Form 10-K.
Newmont Mining Corporation ("NMC") owns approximately 89% of the Company
and, effective January 1, 1994, all of NMC's operations are held through the
Company.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
current year presentation.

(3) Contingencies
Environmental Obligations
The Company is involved in several matters concerning environmental
obligations primarily associated with former mining activities. Based upon
the Company's best estimate of its liability for these matters, $62.9 million
<PAGE> 7
and $64.3 million were accrued for such liability at March 31, 1995 and
December 31, 1994, respectively, excluding $19.2 million and $18.4 million at
March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively, of reclamation costs
relating to currently producing mineral properties. These amounts are
included in other current liabilities and reclamation 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 65% greater or 15% lower than the amount accrued at March 31, 1995.
A discussion of the environmental obligations and related insurance
receivables associated with former mining activities as of March 31, 1995
follows.
Idarado Mining Company ("Idarado") - 80.1% owned
In July 1992, NMC and Idarado signed a consent decree with the State of
Colorado ("State") which was agreed to by the U.S. District Court of Colorado
to settle a lawsuit brought by the State under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), generally
referred to as the "Superfund Act." Idarado settled natural resources
damages and past and future response costs and provided habitat enhancement
work. In addition, Idarado agreed in the consent decree to undertake
specified remediation work related to its former mining activities in the
Telluride/Ouray area of Colorado. The Company's best estimate of the cost of
this work is included in the liability, as previously discussed. If the
remediation work does not meet certain measurement criteria specified in the
consent decree, the State and court reserve the right to require Idarado to
perform other remediation work. Idarado and the Company have obtained a
$16.3 million letter of credit to secure their obligations under the consent
decree.
Resurrection Mining Company ("Resurrection") - 100% owned
In 1983, the State of Colorado filed a lawsuit under the Superfund Act
which involves a joint venture mining operation near Leadville, Colorado in
which Resurrection is a joint venturer. This action was subsequently
consolidated with a lawsuit filed by the U. S. Environmental Protection
Agency ("EPA") in 1986. The EPA is taking the lead role on cleanup issues.
The proceedings sought to compel the defendants to remediate the impacts of
pre-existing mining activities which the government agencies claim are
causing substantial environmental problems in the area. The mining
operations of the joint venture are operated by ASARCO, the other joint
venturer. The lawsuits have named NMC, Resurrection, the joint venture and
ASARCO defendants in the proceedings. They are also proceeding against other
companies with interests in the area.
The EPA divided the remedial work into two phases. Phase I addresses a
drainage and access tunnel owned by the joint venture - the Yak Tunnel.
Phase II addresses the remainder of the site.
In 1988 and 1989, the EPA issued administrative orders with respect to
Phase I work for the Yak Tunnel. The joint venture, ASARCO, Resurrection
and NMC have collectively implemented those orders by constructing a water
treatment plant which was placed in operation in early 1992. The joint
venture is in negotiations regarding remaining remedial work for Phase I,
which primarily consists of monitoring and environmental maintenance
activities.
<PAGE> 8
The parties have entered into a consent decree with respect to Phase II
which apportions liabilities and responsibilities for the site among the
various parties. The EPA has not yet completed work to define the remedies
for Phase II. Accordingly, the Company cannot yet determine the full extent
or cost of its share of the remedial action which will be required under
Phase II. Moreover, in addition to such action, the government agencies may
seek to recover for damages to natural resources.
Although the ultimate amount of Resurrection's and the Company's share
of such costs for Phase I and Phase II cannot be presently determined, the
Company's best estimate of its potential exposure for these costs is included
in the gross liability for these matters, as previously discussed.
Dawn Mining Company ("Dawn") - 51% owned
Dawn leased a currently inactive open-pit uranium mine on the Spokane
Indian Reservation in the State of Washington. The mine 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 EPA. Dawn
also owns a nearby uranium millsite facility.
In 1991, Dawn's lease was terminated. As a result, Dawn was required to
file a formal mine reclamation plan. Dawn does not have sufficient funds to
pay for such a reclamation plan or to pay for the closure of its mill. The
Company's best estimate for the future costs related to these matters is
included in the gross liability for environmental matters, as previously
discussed. Dawn has developed and has received a license for a mill closure
plan which could potentially generate the necessary funds to reclaim the mine
and the mill. The plan, however, is currently being challenged by third
parties.
The Department of Interior previously notified Dawn that when the lease
was terminated, it would seek to hold Dawn and NMC (as Dawn's then 51% owner)
liable for any costs incurred as a result of Dawn's failure to comply with
the lease and applicable regulations. The Company would vigorously contest
any such claims. The Company cannot reasonably predict the likelihood or
outcome of any future action against Dawn or the Company arising from this
matter.
Insurance Receivables
Included in accounts receivable at December 31, 1994 was a net $16.7
million attributable to insurance companies for both a portion of the costs
previously expended and for estimated future costs associated with
environmental obligations covered by insurance policies associated with
former mining activities.
Prior to 1993, three of the insurance companies commenced actions
against NMC seeking judgments that they had no liability. In the fall of
1993, NMC instituted a comprehensive lawsuit against its carriers.
In the first quarter of 1995 settlement in the insurance litigation was
reached enabling the Company to realize the December 31, 1994 receivable.
Settlement discussions continue with respect to some of the litigation. The
Company will continue to vigorously pursue recovery in the remaining
litigation and believes that it is reasonably possible that additional
amounts will be recovered.
<PAGE> 9
Class Action Complaint
In March 1995, a class action complaint was filed against NMC and others
in which the plaintiffs allege exposure to certain allegedly radioactive or
otherwise hazardous waste materials produced at a ferroalloy production plant
in Guernsey County, Ohio. This plant was owned until 1987 by Foote Mineral
Company, a former subsidiary of NMC. The complaint seeks $500 million of
compensatory damages jointly and severally against all defendants, $63
million in punitive damages against NMC, the recovery of response costs and
the establishment of a medical monitoring fund under CERCLA. Injunctive
relief requiring defendants to remove the allegedly hazardous materials from
the property of the plaintiffs is also requested.
The Company is investigating this recently filed action and intends to
vigorously contest all alleged liability in this matter.
Additional Interest in Minera Yanacocha
In September 1994, an affiliate of Bureau de Recherches Geologiques et
Minieres, the geological and mining bureau of the French government ("BRGM"),
announced its intention to transfer its 24.7% interest in Minera Yanacocha,
S.A. to another entity. The Company and Compania de Minas Buenaventura, S.A.
("Buenaventura"), 38.0% and 32.3% owners of Minera Yanacocha, respectively,
filed suit in Peru to seek enforcement of a provision in the bylaws of Minera
Yanacocha, giving shareholders preemptive rights on the sale of any
shareholder's interest. In February 1995, an appellate court in Peru issued
a preliminary ruling in favor of the Company and Buenaventura. The Company
elected to exercise its preemptive rights to acquire its proportionate share
of the additional interest and in accordance with the court ruling deposited
$48.6 million with a Peruvian bank, pending the final resolution of the case.
The Company borrowed the $48.6 million from the same Peruvian bank with the
right of setoff against the deposit. Part of the final resolution of the
case, if resolved in the Company's favor, will determine how much the Company
must pay for the interest, which may be more or less than the amount
deposited. The Company intends to fund the purchase of the additional
interest with its available cash or credit facilities. If the Company is
successful in acquiring the interest it would own 51% of Minera Yanacocha.
This additional interest will not be reflected in the financial statements
until a final determination is made by the Peruvian courts.
(5) Supplementary Data
The ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the quarter ended March 31,
1995 was 2.6. The Company guarantees certain third party debt which had
total interest obligations of $0.3 million for the quarter ended March 31,
1995. The Company has not been required to pay any interest on these
obligations in the past, nor does it expect to have to pay any amounts with
respect to such debt in the future. Therefore, such amounts have not been
included in the ratio of earnings to fixed charges.
(6) Subsequent Events
On April 5, 1995, the Company sold its 10.7% interest in Southern Peru
Copper Corporation for $116.4 million, which will result in a pre-tax gain of
$113.2 million, or approximately $72 million, or $0.75 per share on an after-
tax basis, that will be recognized in the second quarter of 1995.
<PAGE> 10
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
Operations and Financial Condition
The following discussion summarizes the results of operations of Newmont
Gold Company ("Newmont") and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company")
for the quarters ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 and changes in its financial
condition from December 31, 1994. Newmont Mining Corporation ("NMC") owns
approximately 89% of the Company and, effective January 1, 1994, all of NMC's
operations are held through the Company. This discussion should be read in
conjunction with the Management's Discussion and Analysis included in the
Company's 1994 annual report on Form 10-K.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company earned $17.0 million, or $0.14 per share, in the first
quarter of 1995 compared with $23.7 million, or $0.20 per share, in the first
quarter of 1994. This decrease in income was attributable to decreased gold
production and increased costs at the Carlin, Nevada operation as discussed
below.
During the first quarter of 1995, consolidated gold sales were 354,900
ounces at an average price of $379 per ounce compared to 389,700 ounces at an
average price of $384 per ounce in the first quarter of 1994. Production for
both quarters is attributable entirely to the Carlin, Nevada operations. The
34,800 ounce decline in production decreased sales revenue by $13.4 million
and the $5 decline in the per ounce sales price decreased sales revenue by
$1.9 million. The decline in production in the 1995 quarter was impacted by
the closure of three mills and the Rain open pit mine after the first quarter
of 1994. During the second half of 1995, production at the Carlin operation
will benefit from increased production from the refractory ore treatment
plant. Because of a fire in November 1994, the facility only operated at
partial capacity for the quarter; however, full capacity is anticipated by
mid-1995. The Company expects to produce 1.6 million ounces in 1995 from the
Carlin operations. In addition, production from the Zarafshan-Newmont Joint
Venture is expected to begin in mid-1995.
During the first quarter of 1995 the Company's equity income from its
38% interest in Minera Yanacocha S.A. ("Minera Yanacocha") increased to $7.1
million from $2.0 million in the 1994 first quarter. Minera Yanacocha
produced 121,900 ounces, or 46,300 ounces attributable to the Company's
interest, in the 1995 first quarter at operating costs, excluding
depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A"), of $125 per ounce. This
compares to 45,600 ounces, or 17,300 ounces attributable to the Company's
interest, in the 1994 first quarter at operating costs, excluding DD&A, of
$150 per ounce. The increase in production is primarily due to a second mine
coming into production in late 1994.
Dividends, interest and other income in the 1995 quarter includes $11.8
million for business interruption insurance recorded for the start-up
problems with the refractory ore treatment plant and $2.6 million in higher
dividends from the Company's investment in Southern Peru Copper Corporation.
In April 1995, the Company sold its 10.7% interest in Southern Peru Copper
Corporation for $116.4 million, which will result in a pre-tax gain of $113.2
million, or approximately $72 million, or $0.75 per share on an after-tax
basis, that will be recognized in the second quarter of 1995.
The Company's costs applicable to sales in the aggregate were
approximately the same between the two quarters. On a per ounce of gold sold
basis, costs applicable to sales were higher in the first quarter of 1995
<PAGE> 11
compared to the first quarter of 1994 as a result of the lower Carlin
production. The following table summarizes the significant components of
these costs per ounce of gold sold:
<TABLE>

==== ====
</TABLE>
The increase in production costs on a per ounce of gold sold basis in the
1995 quarter was the result of higher milling costs associated with the
refractory ore treatment plant, which as previously mentioned, only operated
at partial capacity during the first quarter of 1995. In addition, the
facility was shut-down at the end of the first quarter into the beginning of
the second quarter for repairs and maintenance. Although per ounce
production costs may continue to increase into the second quarter, they
should decline during the second half of the year as the refractory ore
treatment plant achieves full operating capacity and the lower cost
Zarafshan-Newmont Joint Venture comes into full operation.
The increase in royalty costs per ounce is due to the production of a
higher proportion of royalty-burdened ore in 1995 compared to 1994, which is
expected to continue throughout the year, although at not as great a
difference as experienced in the first quarter. For the year, per ounce
royalty costs are expected to be 15% to 20% higher than the $25 per ounce
experienced during 1994.
In addition to expensed production costs, during the 1995 first quarter
the Company capitalized $9.9 million of mining costs associated with deposits
having diverse waste-to-ore ratios, the largest being the Post deposit. This
compares to $6.7 million in the 1994 first quarter. The increase is
attributable to more tons mined in the 1995 quarter and is expected to
continue throughout the year.
During the first quarter of 1995, the Company determined that studies on
the Batu Hijau project confirmed that this large porphyry copper/gold deposit
could be economically developed. Therefore, costs incurred on this project
in the first quarter of 1995 of $5.0 million were capitalized, and all future
development costs will be capitalized.
DD&A increased $1.8 million in the 1995 quarter due to depreciation of
the refractory ore treatment plant. There was no comparable depreciation in
the 1994 quarter.
First quarter 1995 exploration expenses decreased $3.1 million as the
Company plans on lower exploration spending in 1995.
<PAGE> 12
General and administrative expenses were higher in the 1995 quarter than
the 1994 quarter due to the increased international focus of the Company's
operations. In that general and administrative expenses increased in the
latter quarters of 1994, the increase in general and administrative expenses
is not expected to be as great for the remaining quarters of 1995 compared to
1994.
Net interest expense increased $8.6 million in the 1995 quarter compared
with the 1994 quarter. Interest expense increased from $4.9 million in the
1994 quarter to $11.5 million in the 1995 quarter primarily due to interest
expense associated with the sale-leaseback transaction of the refractory ore
treatment plant completed in September 1994. With the completion of the
refractory ore treatment plant in late 1994, capitalized interest in the 1995
quarter is $2.8 million compared with $4.7 million in the 1994 quarter.
The effective tax rate was approximately 10% in the first quarter of
1995 compared to approximately 4% in the first quarter of 1994. Both years'
effective rates are low as a result of the estimated amount of percentage
depletion for each year being a high proportion of estimated pretax financial
income for each year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the first quarter of 1995, the Company's cash outlays included
$70.7 million of capital expenditures, $11.9 million to carry the partners'
share of the costs in the Zarafshan-Newmont Joint Venture and $15.5 million
in dividends. Of the first quarter 1995 capital expenditures, approximately
$38.8 million was spent on projects at the Carlin operations primarily
associated with the refractory ore treatment plant, capitalized mining costs,
leach pad construction and underground development. In addition, $13.4
million for mine site development on the Minahasa project in Indonesia and
$11.2 million for the Zarafshan-Newmont Joint Venture project was spent in
the first quarter. Cash flow from operating activities was $55.7 million.
Cash requirements during 1995 are expected to exceed operating cash
flow. However, in the second quarter, the Company sold its investment in
Southern Peru Copper Corporation for $116.4 million and the Zarafshan-Newmont
Joint Venture closed on an additional $30.0 million of project financing, $15
million of which is attributable to the Company. These funds, in addition to
the $160.6 million of cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 1994, will
cover any short-fall in operating cash flow for the year.
In February 1995, a preliminary ruling in the Peruvian courts was
received which permits the Company to exercise its preemptive rights with
regards to the 24.7% interest held by the Bureau de Recherches Geologiques et
Minieres in Minera Yanacocha. The Company exercised its right by depositing
$48.6 million with a Peruvian bank as stipulated by the court ruling. This
amount is only a provisional amount assigned by the court and the actual
price to be paid for the interest will be the subject of a future court
determination. The monies deposited with the bank were borrowed from the
same bank with a right of setoff against the deposit. If the Company is
ultimately successful in acquiring this additional interest, its total
interest in Minera Yanacocha would increase to 51%. This additional interest
will not be reflected in the financial statements until a final determination
is made by the Peruvian courts.
<PAGE> 13
The decrease in accounts receivable during the first quarter of 1995 is
due to receipt of insurance monies related to the start-up problems of the
