ITEM 1. BUSINESS (dollars in millions except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)

Introduction

Newmont Mining Corporation is primarily a gold producer with significant assets or operations in the United States, Australia, Peru, Indonesia, Ghana, Canada, New Zealand and Mexico. At December 31, 2009, Newmont had proven and probable gold reserves of 91.8 million equity ounces and an aggregate land position of approximately 33,400 square miles (86,500 square kilometers). Newmont is also engaged in the production of copper, principally through its Batu Hijau operation in Indonesia and Boddington operation in Australia. Newmont Mining Corporation’s original predecessor corporation was incorporated in 1921 under the laws of Delaware.

Newmont’s corporate headquarters are in Greenwood Village, Colorado, USA. In this report, “Newmont,” the “Company,” “our” and “we” refer to Newmont Mining Corporation and/or our affiliates and subsidiaries.

Newmont’s net revenues and long-lived assets are geographically distributed as follows:

In September 2009, the Company completed a two part public offering of $900 and $1,100 senior notes maturing on October 1, 2019 and October 1, 2039, respectively. Net proceeds from the 2019 and 2039 notes were $895 and $1,080, respectively. The 2019 notes pay interest semi-annually at a rate of 5.13% per annum and the 2039 notes pay semi-annual interest of 6.25% per annum.

In June 2009, the Company completed the acquisition of the remaining 33.33% interest in Boddington from AngloGold Ashanti Australia Limited (“AngloGold”). The valuation date for the transaction was January 1, 2009, and closing adjustments were made to reflect Newmont’s economic ownership from that date. Consideration for the acquisition consisted of $750 less an $8 closing adjustment paid in cash at closing, $240 paid in cash in December 2009, and a contingent royalty capped at $100, equal to 50% of the average realized operating margin (Revenue less Costs applicable to sales on a by-product basis), if any, exceeding $600 per ounce, payable quarterly on one-third of gold sales from Boddington beginning in the second quarter of 2010. See Item 1A, Risk Factors, Risks Related to Newmont Operations, below.

In February 2009, we issued $518 of convertible senior notes, maturing on February 15, 2012. The notes pay interest semi-annually at a rate of 3.00% per annum. The notes are convertible, at the holder’s option, equivalent to a conversion price of $46.25 per share of common stock. Additionally, on February 3, 2009, we issued 34,500,000 shares of common stock at a price of $37.00, less an

underwriting discount of $1.17 per share. Net proceeds for the convertible senior notes and common stock offering were $504 and $1,234, respectively.

The February and September 2009 offerings were made pursuant to our automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3. See Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Segment Information, Export Sales, etc.

Our operating segments include North America, South America, Asia Pacific and Africa. Our North America segment consists primarily of Nevada, La Herradura in Mexico and Hope Bay in Canada. Our South America segment consists primarily of Yanacocha and Conga in Peru. Our Asia Pacific segment consists primarily of Batu Hijau in Indonesia, Boddington in Australia and other smaller operations in Australia/New Zealand. Our Africa segment consists primarily of Ahafo and Akyem in Ghana. See Item 1A, Risk Factors, Risks Related to Newmont Operations, below and Note 31 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information relating to our operating segments, domestic and export sales, and lack of dependence on a limited number of customers.

Products

Gold

General. We had consolidated gold sales of 6.5 million ounces (5.3 million equity ounces) in 2009, 6.2 million ounces (5.2 million equity ounces) in 2008 and 6.1 million ounces (5.3 million equity ounces) in 2007. For 2009, 2008 and 2007, 83%, 88% and 78%, respectively, of our net revenues were attributable to gold. Of our 2009 consolidated gold sales, approximately 32% came from North America, 32% from South America, 28% from Asia Pacific and 8% from Africa. References in this report to “equity ounces” or “equity pounds” mean that portion of gold or copper produced, sold or included in proven and probable reserves that is attributable to our ownership or economic interest.

Most of our net revenue comes from the sale of refined gold in the international market. The end product at our gold operations, however, is generally doré bars. Doré is an alloy consisting primarily of gold but also containing silver and other metals. Doré is sent to refiners to produce bullion that meets the required market standard of 99.95% gold. Under the terms of our refining agreements, the doré bars are refined for a fee, and our share of the refined gold and the separately-recovered silver are credited to our account or delivered to buyers. Gold sold from Batu Hijau in Indonesia and a portion of the gold from Boddington in Australia, Phoenix in Nevada and Yanacocha in Peru, is contained in a saleable concentrate containing other metals such as copper or silver.

Gold Uses. Gold is generally used for fabrication or investment. Fabricated gold has a variety of end uses, including jewelry, electronics, dentistry, industrial and decorative uses, medals, medallions and official coins. Gold investors buy gold bullion, official coins and jewelry.

Gold Supply. A combination of current mine production and draw-down of existing gold stocks held by governments, financial institutions, industrial organizations and private individuals make up the annual gold supply. Based on public information available for the years 2006 through 2009, on average, current mine production has accounted for approximately 71% of the annual gold supply.

Gold Price. The following table presents the annual high, low and average daily afternoon fixing prices for gold over the past ten years on the London Bullion Market ($/ounce).

On February 17, 2010, the afternoon fixing gold price on the London Bullion Market was $1,119 per ounce and the spot market gold price on the New York Commodity Exchange was $1,120 per ounce.

We generally sell our gold at the prevailing market price during the month in which the gold is delivered to the customer. We recognize revenue from a sale when the price is determinable, the gold has been delivered, the title has been transferred and collection of the sales price is reasonably assured.

Copper

General. We had consolidated copper sales of 507 million pounds (226 million equity pounds) in 2009, 290 million pounds (130 million equity pounds) in 2008 and 428 million pounds (200 million equity pounds) in 2007. For 2009, 2008 and 2007, 17%, 12% and 22%, respectively, of our net revenues were attributable to copper. Copper production at Batu Hijau, in Indonesia, and Boddington, in Australia, is in the form of saleable concentrate that is sold to smelters for further treatment and refining. At December 31, 2009, we had a 35.44% ownership interest but reported a 52.44% economic interest in the Batu Hijau operation in Indonesia, which began production in 1999. Copper production began in 2009 at Boddington.

Copper Uses. Refined copper is incorporated into wire and cable products for use in the construction, electric utility, communications and transportation industries. Copper is also used in industrial equipment and machinery, consumer products and a variety of other electrical and electronic applications and is also used to make brass. Copper substitutes include aluminum, plastics, stainless steel and fiber optics. Refined, or cathode, copper is also an internationally traded commodity.

Copper Supply. A combination of current mine production and recycled scrap material make up the annual copper supply.

Copper Price. The copper price is quoted on the London Metal Exchange in terms of dollars per metric ton of high grade copper. The following table presents the dollar per pound equivalent of the annual high, low and average daily prices of high grade copper on the London Metal Exchange over the past ten years ($/pound):

On February 17, 2010, the high grade copper closing price on the London Metal Exchange was $3.23 per pound. Our historic ability to sell copper at market prices was limited in some cases by hedging activities, more particularly described in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Gold and Copper Processing Methods

Gold is extracted from naturally-oxidized ores by either heap leaching or milling, depending on the amount of gold contained in the ore, the amenability of the ore to treatment and related capital and operating costs. Higher grade oxide ores are generally processed through mills, where the ore is ground into a fine powder and mixed with water in slurry, which then passes through a carbon-in-leach circuit. Lower grade oxide ores are generally processed using heap leaching. Heap leaching consists of stacking crushed or run-of-mine ore on impermeable pads, where a weak cyanide solution is applied to the surface of the heap to dissolve the gold. In both cases, the gold-bearing solution is then collected and pumped to process facilities to remove the gold by collection on carbon or by zinc precipitation.

Gold contained in ores that are not naturally oxidized can be directly milled if the gold is amenable to cyanidation, generally known as free milling sulfide ores. Ores that are not amenable to cyanidation, known as refractory ores, require more costly and complex processing techniques than oxide or free milling ore. Higher-grade refractory ores are processed through either roasters or autoclaves. Roasters heat finely ground ore to a high temperature, burn off the carbon and oxidize the sulfide minerals that prevent efficient leaching. Autoclaves use heat, oxygen and pressure to oxidize sulfide ores.

Some sulfide ores may be processed through a flotation plant or by bio-milling. In flotation, ore is finely ground, turned into slurry, then placed in a tank known as a flotation cell. Chemicals are added to the slurry causing the gold-containing sulfides to attach to air bubbles and float to the top of the tank. The sulfides are removed from the cell and converted into a concentrate that can then be processed in an autoclave or roaster to recover the gold. Bio-milling incorporates patented technology that involves inoculation of suitable crushed ore on a leach pad with naturally occurring bacteria strains, which oxidize the sulfides over a period of time. The ore is then processed through an oxide mill.

At Batu Hijau, ore containing copper and gold is crushed to a coarse size at the mine and then transported from the mine via conveyor to a concentrator, where it is finely ground and then treated by

successive stages of flotation, resulting in a concentrate containing approximately 30% copper. The concentrate is dewatered and stored for loading onto ships for transport to smelters.

At Boddington, ore containing copper and gold is crushed to a coarse size at the mine and then transported via conveyor to a process plant, where it is further crushed and then finely ground as a slurry. The ore is initially treated by flotation which produces a copper/gold concentrate containing approximately 18% copper. Flotation concentrates are processed via a gravity circuit to recover fine liberated gold and then dewatered and stored for loading onto ships for transport to smelters. The flotation tailing has a residual gold content that is recovered in a carbon-in-leach circuit.

At Phoenix, a process similar to that followed at Boddington is used to process a concentrate containing approximately 20% copper, which is loaded onto rail cars for transport to the smelter.

Hedging Activities

Our strategy is to provide shareholders with leverage to changes in the gold and copper prices by selling our gold and copper production at current market prices. Consequently, we do not hedge our gold and copper sales. We continue to manage risks associated with commodity input costs, interest rates and foreign currencies using the derivative market.

For additional information, see Hedging in Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk, and Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Gold and Copper Reserves

At December 31, 2009 we had 91.8 million equity ounces of proven and probable gold reserves. We added 6.4 million equity ounces to proven and probable reserves, and depleted 6.8 million equity ounces during 2009. We also added 8.2 million equity ounces to proven and probable reserves through acquisitions and divested 1.0 million equity ounces. 2009 reserves were calculated at a gold price assumption of $800, A$1,000 or NZ$1,200 per ounce, respectively. A reconciliation of the changes in proven and probable gold reserves during the past three years follows:


	2009			2008			2007

⁽¹⁾		The impact of the change in gold price assumption on reserve additions was approximately 1.7 million, 1.9 million and 0.7 million equity ounces in 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

⁽²⁾		In June 2009 reserves were increased by 6.7 million equity ounces through the acquisition of the remaining 33.33% interest in Boddington. In December 2009 our economic interest in reserves increased by 1.5 million equity ounces as a result of transactions with a noncontrolling partner at Batu Hijau, which increased our economic interest to 52.44%.

⁽³⁾		In November and December 2009 our ownership in Batu Hijau decreased from 45% to 35.44% as a result of the divestiture required under the Contract of Work. In July 2009 we sold the Kori Kollo operation in Bolivia. In December 2007 we sold the Pajingo operation. In May 2007 our economic interest in Batu Hijau was reduced from 52.88% to 45% when a noncontrolling partner fully repaid a loan from a Newmont subsidiary.

Our exploration efforts are directed to the discovery of new mineralized material and converting it into proven and probable reserves. We conduct near-mine exploration around our existing mines and greenfields exploration in other regions globally. Near-mine exploration can result in the discovery of additional deposits, which may receive the economic benefit of existing operating, processing, and administrative infrastructures. In contrast, the discovery of new mineralization through greenfields exploration efforts will likely require capital investment to build a separate, stand-alone operation. We expensed $187 in 2009, $213 in 2008 and $177 in 2007 on Exploration.

For additional information, see Item 2, Properties, Proven and Probable Reserves.

Licenses and Concessions

Other than operating licenses for our mining and processing facilities, there are no third party patents, licenses or franchises material to our business. In many countries, however, we conduct our mining and exploration activities pursuant to concessions granted by, or under contract with, the host government. These countries include, among others, Australia, Canada, Ghana, Indonesia, Mexico, New Zealand and Peru. The concessions and contracts are subject to the political risks associated with foreign operations. See Item 1A, Risk Factors, Risks Related to Newmont, below. For a more detailed description of our Indonesian Contract of Work, see Item 2, Properties, below.

Condition of Physical Assets and Insurance

Our business is capital intensive and requires ongoing capital investment for the replacement, modernization or expansion of equipment and facilities. For more information, see Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources, below.

We maintain insurance policies against property loss and business interruption and insure against risks that are typical in the operation of our business, in amounts that we believe to be reasonable. Such insurance, however, contains exclusions and limitations on coverage, particularly with respect to environmental liability and political risk. There can be no assurance that claims would be paid under such insurance policies in connection with a particular event. See Item 1A, Risk Factors, Risks Related to Newmont, below.

Environmental Matters

Our United States mining and exploration activities are subject to various federal and state laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment, including the Clean Air Act; the Clean Water Act; the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act; the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act; the Endangered Species Act; the Federal Land Policy and Management Act; the National Environmental Policy Act; the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act; and related state laws. These laws and regulations are continually changing and are generally becoming more restrictive. Our activities outside the United States are also subject to governmental regulations for the protection of the environment.

We conduct our operations so as to protect public health and the environment and believe our operations are in compliance with applicable laws and regulations in all material respects. Each operating mine has a reclamation plan in place that meets all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. We have made, and expect to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations. We have made estimates of the amount of such expenditures, but cannot precisely predict the amount of such future expenditures. Estimated future reclamation costs are based principally on legal and regulatory requirements. At December 31, 2009, $698 was accrued for reclamation costs relating to current or recently producing properties.

In addition to legal and regulatory compliance, we have developed programs to guide our company toward achieving environmental and sustainable development objectives. Evidencing our management’s commitment towards these objectives, in 2008, we moved our corporate headquarters to an environmentally sustainable, LEED, gold-certified building. We are also committed to managing climate change risks and responsibly reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. We have reported our greenhouse gas emissions annually to the Carbon Disclosure Project since 2004, became a Founding Reporter on The Climate Registry in 2008 and have committed to publicly reporting our independently-verified greenhouse gas emissions in the future. As a result of our efforts, we continue to achieve milestones, such as being the first gold company listed on the Dow Jones Sustainability Index World and receiving International Cyanide Management Code certification at 100% of registered Newmont sites as of the end of 2009.

We are also involved in several matters concerning environmental obligations associated with former, primarily historic, mining activities. Generally, these matters concern developing and implementing remediation plans at the various sites. We believe 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 activities required to meet general environmental standards. Based upon our best estimate of our liability for these matters, $161 was accrued at December 31, 2009 for such obligations associated with properties previously owned or operated by us or our subsidiaries. These amounts are included in Other current liabilities and Reclamation and remediation liabilities. Depending upon the ultimate resolution of these matters, which is difficult to predict due to the legal and regulatory uncertainty of the related matters, we believe that it is reasonably possible that the liability for these matters could be as much as 148% greater or 3% lower, than the amount accrued at December 31, 2009. The amounts accrued for these matters are reviewed periodically based upon facts and circumstances available at the time. Changes in estimates are charged to costs and expenses in the period when estimates are revised.

For a discussion of the most significant reclamation and remediation activities, see Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and Notes 25 and 33 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, below.

Employees and Contractors

Approximately 14,500 people were employed by Newmont at December 31, 2009. In addition, approximately 15,900 people were working as contractors in support of Newmont’s operations.
