Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
BASIS OF PRESENTATION	BASIS OF PRESENTATION The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (“interim statements”) of Newmont Corporation, a Delaware corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Newmont” or the “Company”) are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim statements have been included. The results reported in these interim statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with Newmont’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed on February 18, 2021 on Form 10-K. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements and, in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q, certain information and footnote disclosures required by United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. References to “C$” refer to Canadian currency. On May 17, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of the remaining 85.1% of GT Gold Corporation (“GT Gold”) for cash consideration, including related transaction costs, of $326. The acquisition, deemed to be an asset acquisition under U.S. GAAP, resulted in total consideration of $378, including non-cash consideration of $52. The non-cash consideration represents the fair value of the 14.9% GT Gold investment held by the Company prior to the acquisition and previously accounted for as marketable equity securities. The total consideration paid was allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, which primarily consisted of mineral interests of $590 and a related deferred tax liability of $211. In March 2020, the Company sold the Red Lake complex, previously included as part of the Company’s North America segment. As the sale was completed in the first quarter of 2020, there are no results for Red Lake for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and the three months ended June 30, 2020. Refer to Note 8 for additional information.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Risks and Uncertainties As a global mining company, the Company’s revenue, profitability and future rate of growth are substantially dependent on prevailing metal prices, primarily for gold, but also for copper, silver, lead and zinc. Historically, the commodity markets have been very volatile, and there can be no assurance that commodity prices will not be subject to significant fluctuations in the future. A substantial or extended decline in commodity prices could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows, access to capital and on the quantities of reserves that the Company can economically produce. The carrying value of the Company’s Property, plant and mine development , net; Inventories; Stockpiles and ore on leach pads; Investments; Deferred income tax assets; and Goodwill are particularly sensitive to the outlook for commodity prices. A decline in the Company’s price outlook from current levels could result in material impairment charges related to these assets. In addition to changes in commodity prices, other factors such as changes in mine plans, increases in costs, geotechnical failures, changes in social, environmental or regulatory requirements, impacts of global events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and management’s decision to reprioritize or abandon a development project can adversely affect the Company’s ability to recover its investment in certain assets and result in impairment charges. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a material impact on the global economy, the scale and duration of which remain uncertain. In the first half of 2020, the Company temporarily placed Musselwhite, Éléonore, Yanacocha, Cerro Negro and Peñasquito into care and maintenance with each subsequently resuming operations during the second quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2021, all sites were fully operational, with the exception of Cerro Negro and Tanami. Cerro Negro continues to focus on returning operations to full capacity while managing ongoing COVID-related impacts. Tanami was temporarily placed into care and maintenance in late June 2021, in close coordination with the Australian government, to protect our employees and nearby communities, align with country mandated travel restrictions, and manage ongoing COVID-related impacts. As of July 22, 2021, Tanami operations have made strong progress in ramping up to full capacity. The impact of this pandemic could include placing additional sites into care and maintenance, significant COVID-19 specific costs, volatility in the prices for gold and other metals, logistical challenges shipping our products, delays in product refining and smelting due to restrictions or temporary closures, additional travel restrictions, other supply chain disruptions and workforce interruptions, including loss of life. Depending on the duration and extent of the impact of COVID-19, this could materially impact the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition and could result in material impairment charges to the Company’s Property, plant and mine development, net; Inventories; Stockpiles and ore on leach pads; Investments; Deferred income tax assets; and Goodwill . The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the accounting for and recognition and disclosure of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses. The Company must make these estimates and assumptions because certain information used is dependent on future events, cannot be calculated with a high degree of precision from data available or simply cannot be readily calculated based on generally accepted methodologies. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Reclassifications Certain amounts in prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Securities and Exchange Commission Rules Accounting for Income Taxes In December 2019, Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2019-12 was issued to simplify the accounting for income taxes, eliminate certain exceptions within Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 740, Income Taxes, and clarify certain aspects of the current guidance to promote consistency among reporting entities. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures. Accounting for Equity Securities, Investments and Certain Forward Contracts and Options In January 2020, ASU No. 2020-01 was issued which clarifies the interaction in accounting for equity securities under ASC 321, investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting in ASC 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options accounted for under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures. Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses In May 2020, the SEC finalized its proposed updates to Rule 3-05 within Regulation S-X, Financial statements of businesses acquired or to be acquired, Rule 3-14, Special instructions for real estate operations to be acquired; Article 11, Pro Forma Financial Information; and other related rules and forms (the “Rules”). The Rules include amendments, which among other things: revise significance tests used to determine disclosure requirements; require the financial statements of the acquired business to cover only up to the two most recent fiscal years; permit the use of, or reconciliation to, International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board in certain circumstances; and amend certain pro forma financial information requirements. The Rules were adopted on January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Effects of Reference Rate Reform In March 2020, ASU No. 2020-04 was issued which provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden on accounting for contract modifications caused by reference rate reform. This guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The guidance may be adopted over time as reference rate reform activities occur and should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is still completing its evaluation of the impact of ASU 2020-04 and plans to elect optional expedients as reference rate reform activities occur. In January 2021, ASU No. 2021-01 was issued which broadened the scope of ASU No. 2020-04 to include certain derivative instruments. The Company expects neither the guidance nor the subsequent update to have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures.

SEGMENT INFORMATION	Jun. 30, 2021
Segment Reporting [Abstract]
SEGMENT INFORMATION	SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company has organized its operations into five geographic regions: North America, South America, Australia, Africa and Nevada, which also represent Newmont’s reportable and operating segments. The results of these operating segments are reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and assess their performance. As a result, these operating segments represent the Company’s reportable segments. Notwithstanding this structure, the Company internally reports information on a mine-by-mine basis for each mining operation and has chosen to disclose this information in the following tables. Income (loss) before income and mining tax and other items from reportable segments does not reflect general corporate expenses, interest (except project-specific interest) or income and mining taxes. Intercompany revenue and expense amounts have been eliminated within each segment in order to report on the basis that management uses internally for evaluating segment performance. Newmont’s business activities that are not considered operating segments are included in Corporate and Other. Although they are not required to be included in this footnote, they are provided for reconciliation purposes.

Environmental Remediation Obligations [Abstract]
RECLAMATION AND REMEDIATION	RECLAMATION AND REMEDIATION The Company’s mining and exploration activities are subject to various domestic and international laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations are continually changing and are generally becoming more restrictive. The Company conducts its operations to protect public health and the environment and believes its operations are in compliance with applicable laws and regulations in all material respects. The Company has made, and expects to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations, but cannot predict the full amount of such future expenditures. Estimated future reclamation and remediation costs are based principally on current legal and regulatory requirements. The Company’s Reclamation and remediation expense consisted of: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2021 2020 2021 2020 Reclamation adjustments and other $ 2 $ — $ 11 $ — Reclamation accretion 30 35 62 69 Total reclamation expense 32 35 73 69 Remediation adjustments and other 22 4 26 6 Remediation accretion 3 1 4 3 Total remediation expense 25 5 30 9 $ 57 $ 40 $ 103 $ 78 The following are reconciliations of Reclamation and remediation liabilities : 2021 2020 Reclamation balance at January 1, $ 3,719 $ 3,334 Additions, changes in estimates and other (1) 7 (3) Adjustment from the Newmont Goldcorp transaction — 15 Payments, net (37) (33) Accretion expense 62 69 Reclamation balance at June 30, $ 3,751 $ 3,382 ____________________________ (1) The $7 addition is primarily due to higher estimated closure plan costs at NGM for the closed Rain site related to water management. 2021 2020 Remediation balance at January 1, $ 313 $ 299 Additions, changes in estimates and other (1) 21 (1) Payments, net (17) (10) Accretion expense 4 3 Remediation balance at June 30, $ 321 $ 291 ____________________________ (1) The $21 addition is primarily due to revisions to estimated construction costs of the water treatment plant at Midnite Mine.

FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING	Jun. 30, 2021
Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING	FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING Fair value accounting establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below: Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; Level 2 Quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability and model-based valuation techniques (e.g. the Black-Scholes model) for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and Level 3 Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). The following tables set forth the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by accounting guidance, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Fair Value at June 30, 2021 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 4,583 $ 4,583 $ — $ — Restricted cash 108 108 — — Trade receivable from provisional sales, net 279 — 279 — Marketable and other equity securities (Note 15) (1) 533 450 26 57 Restricted marketable debt securities (Note 15) 38 24 14 — Contingent consideration assets 155 — — 155 $ 5,696 $ 5,165 $ 319 $ 212 Liabilities: Debt (2) $ 6,678 $ — $ 6,678 $ — Diesel derivative contracts — — — — Cash-settled Goldcorp share awards 9 — 9 — $ 6,687 $ — $ 6,687 $ — Fair Value at December 31, 2020 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 5,540 $ 5,540 $ — $ — Restricted cash 108 108 — — Trade receivable from provisional sales, net 379 — 379 — Marketable and other equity securities (Note 15) (1) 682 604 25 53 Restricted marketable debt securities (Note 15) 38 24 14 — Contingent consideration assets 119 — — 119 $ 6,866 $ 6,276 $ 418 $ 172 Liabilities: Debt (2) $ 7,586 $ — $ 7,586 $ — Diesel derivative contracts 3 — 3 — Cash-settled Goldcorp share awards 8 — 8 — $ 7,597 $ — $ 7,597 $ — ____________________________ (1) Marketable equity securities includes warrants reported in the Maverix Metals Inc. equity method investment balance of $13 and $14 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. (2) Debt is carried at amortized cost. The outstanding carrying value was $5,480 and $6,031 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The fair value measurement of debt was based on an independent third-party pricing source. The fair values of the derivative instruments in the table above are presented on a net basis. The gross amounts related to the fair value of the derivative instruments above are immaterial. All other fair value disclosures in the above table are presented on a gross basis. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash (which includes restricted cash and cash equivalents) are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices in active markets and are primarily money market securities and U.S. Treasury securities. The Company’s net trade receivables primarily result from provisional metal concentrate sales, which contain an embedded derivative and are subject to final pricing, are valued using quoted market prices based on forward curves for the particular metal. As the contracts themselves are not traded on an exchange, these receivables are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s marketable and other equity securities without readily determinable fair values primarily consists of the Company’s ownership in MARA and warrants in publicly traded companies. The ownership in MARA is accounted for under the measurement alternative and is classified as a non-recurring Level 3 investment within the fair value hierarchy. Warrants are valued using a Black-Scholes model using quoted market prices in active markets of the underlying securities. As the contracts themselves are not traded on the exchange, these equity securities are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s restricted marketable debt securities are primarily U.S. government issued bonds and international bonds. The Company’s South American debt securities are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, using published market prices of actively traded securities. The Company’s North American debt securities are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as they are valued using pricing models which are based on prices of similar, actively traded securities. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration assets is determined using discounted cash flow models. The contingent consideration assets consist of financial instruments that meet the definition of a derivative, but are not designated for hedge accounting under ASC 815. The assets are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Increases in the discount rate will result in a decrease in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration assets. The Company’s derivative instruments consist of fixed forward contracts. These derivative instruments are valued using pricing models, and the Company generally uses similar models to value similar instruments. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, forward curves, measures of volatility, and correlations of such inputs. The Company’s derivatives trade in liquid markets, and as such, model inputs can generally be verified and do not involve significant management judgment. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s liability-classified stock-based compensation awards consist of cash-settled Goldcorp share awards which become payable in cash on the vesting date. These awards are valued each reporting period based on the quoted Newmont stock price. As the awards themselves are not traded on the exchange, they are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The following tables set forth a summary of the quantitative and qualitative information related to the significant observable and unobservable inputs used in the calculation of the Company’s Level 3 financial assets and liabilities at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: Description At June 30, 2021 Valuation technique Significant input Range, point estimate or average Marketable and other equity securities $ 57 Discounted cash flow Discount rate 9.50 % Long-term gold price $ 1,500 Long-term copper price $ 3.00 Contingent consideration assets $ 155 Discounted cash flow Discount rate (1) 4.53 - 9.19 % ____________________________ (1) The weighted average discount rate used to calculate the Company’s contingent consideration assets is 7.99%. Various other inputs including, but not limited to, metal prices, production profiles and new mineralization discoveries were considered in determining the fair value of the individual contingent consideration assets.

(3) Additions of $39 relate to contingent consideration assets received from the sale of Red Lake. See Note 8 for additional information. The gain (loss) recognized on revaluation is included in Net income (loss) from discontinued operations . During the third quarter 2020, the Company purchased the Holt option from Kirkland, which resulted in a downward revision to future production scenarios of the Holt mine to nil. The Company has the right to exercise the Holt option and acquire ownership to the mineral interests subject to the Holt royalty obligation in the event Kirkland intends to resume operations at the Holt mine. Kirkland has the right to assume the Company’s Holt royalty obligation at any time, in which case the Holt option would terminate. The net effect of the Holt option structure is that Kirkland cannot resume operations and process minerals subject to the Holt royalty obligation unless it also assumes the obligation. The Company’s marketable debt securities for the period ended June 30, 2020, consisted of an unrestricted convertible debenture with Continental (the “Continental Convertible Debt”). The estimated fair value of the host debt instrument was determined using a discounted cash flow model, with an internally derived discount rate. It has been classified within Level 3 of the fair value

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES General Estimated losses from contingencies are accrued by a charge to income when information available prior to issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that a liability could be incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the contingency are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the contingency and estimated range of loss, if determinable, is made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred. Operating Segments The Company’s operating and reportable segments are identified in Note 3. Except as noted in this paragraph, all of the Company’s commitments and contingencies specifically described herein are included in Corporate and Other. The Yanacocha matters relate to the South America reportable segment. The Newmont Ghana Gold and Newmont Golden Ridge matters relate to the Africa reportable segment. The Mexico tax matters relate to the North America reportable segment. Environmental Matters Refer to Note 5 for further information regarding reclamation and remediation. Details about two significant matters are discussed below. Minera Yanacocha S.R.L. - 51.35% Newmont Owned In early 2015 and again in June 2017, the Peruvian government agency responsible for certain environmental regulations, the Ministry of the Environment (“MINAM”), issued proposed modifications to water quality criteria for designated beneficial uses which apply to mining companies, including Yanacocha. These criteria modified the in-stream water quality criteria pursuant to which Yanacocha has been designing water treatment processes and infrastructure. In December 2015, MINAM issued the final regulation that modified the water quality standards. These Peruvian regulations allow time to formulate a compliance plan and make any necessary changes to achieve compliance. In February 2017, Yanacocha submitted a modification to its previously approved compliance achievement plan to the Mining Ministry (“MINEM”). The Company did not receive a response or comments to this submission until April 2021 and is now in the process of updating its compliance achievement plan to address these comments. During this interim period, Yanacocha separately submitted an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) modification considering the ongoing operations and the projects to be developed and obtained authorization from MINEM for such projects. This authorization included a deadline for compliance with the modified water quality criteria by January 2024. Consequently, part of the Company response to MINEM will include a request for an extension of time for coming into full compliance with the new regulations. In the event that MINEM does not grant Yanacocha an extension of the previously authorized timeline for, and agree to, the updated compliance achievement plan, fines and penalties relating to non-compliance may result beyond January 2024. The Company currently operates five water treatment plants at Yanacocha that have been and currently meet all currently applicable water discharge requirements. The Company is currently conducting detailed studies to better estimate water management and other closure activities that will ensure water quality and quantity discharge requirements, including the modifications promulgated by MINAM, as referenced above, will be met. This also includes performing a comprehensive update to the Yanacocha reclamation plan to address changes in closure activities and estimated closure costs while preserving optionality for potential future projects at Yanacocha. These studies are ongoing and could result in revisions to our reclamation plan and potential material increases to the cost of water treatment plant construction and water treatment operating costs associated with the closure plan. As these activities are progressed, it could result in a material increase in the reclamation obligation at Yanacocha. The Company will continue to advance and update the Yanacocha reclamation plan and expects to further refine the associated cost estimates in the second half of this year in connection with additional study work currently being completed. Dawn Mining Company LLC (“Dawn”) - 58.19% Newmont Owned Midnite mine site and Dawn mill site . Dawn previously leased an open pit uranium mine, currently inactive, on the Spokane Indian Reservation in the State of Washington. The mine site is subject to regulation by agencies of the U.S. Department of Interior (the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Bureau of Land Management), as well as the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”). As per the Consent Decree approved by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Washington on January 17, 2012, the following actions were required of Newmont, Dawn, the Department of the Interior and the EPA: (i) Newmont and Dawn would design, construct and implement the cleanup plan selected by the EPA in 2006 for the Midnite mine site; (ii) Newmont and Dawn would reimburse the EPA for its past costs associated with overseeing the work; (iii) the Department of the Interior would contribute a lump sum amount toward past EPA costs and future costs related to the cleanup of the Midnite mine site; (iv) Newmont and Dawn would be responsible for all future EPA oversight costs and Midnite mine site cleanup costs; and (v) Newmont would post a surety bond for work at the site. During 2012, the Department of Interior contributed its share of past EPA costs and future costs related to the cleanup of the Midnite mine site in a lump sum payment of $42, which Newmont classified as restricted assets with interest on the Consolidated Balance Sheets for all periods presented. In 2016, Newmont completed the remedial design process (with the exception of the new water treatment plant (“WTP”), which was awaiting the approval of the new National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“NPDES”) permit). Subsequently, the new NPDES permit was received in 2017 and the WTP design commenced in 2018. The EPA is assessing the WTP design. Newmont continues to manage the remediation project during the 2021 construction season. The Dawn mill site is regulated by the Washington Department of Health and is in the process of being closed. Remediation at the Dawn mill site began in 2013. The Tailing Disposal Area 1-4 reclamation earthworks component was completed during 2017 with the embankment erosion protection completed in the second quarter of 2018. The remaining closure activity will consist primarily of addressing groundwater issues and evaporating the remaining balance of process water on site. The remediation liability for the Midnite mine site and Dawn mill site is approximately $183 at June 30, 2021. Other Legal Matters Minera Yanacocha S.R.L. - 51.35% Newmont Owned Administrative Actions . The Peruvian government agency responsible for environmental evaluation and inspection, Organismo Evaluación y Fiscalización Ambiental (“OEFA”), conducts periodic reviews of the Yanacocha site. From 2011 to the second quarter of 2021, OEFA issued notices of alleged violations of OEFA standards to Yanacocha and Conga relating to past inspections. The water authority that is in charge of supervising the proper water administration has also issued notices of alleged regulatory violations in previous years. The experience with OEFA and the water authority is that in the case of a finding of violation, remedial action is often the outcome rather than a significant fine. The alleged OEFA violations currently active range from zero to 108.11 units and the water authority alleged violations range from zero to 10 units, with each unit having a potential fine equivalent to approximately $.001100 based on current exchange rates, with a total potential fine amount for outstanding matters of $— to $0.13. Yanacocha is responding to all notices of alleged violations, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome of the agency allegations. Conga Project Constitutional Claim . On October 18, 2012, Marco Antonio Arana Zegarra filed a constitutional claim against the Ministry of Energy and Mines and Yanacocha requesting the Court to order the suspension of the Conga project as well as to declare not applicable the October 27, 2010, directorial resolution approving the Conga project Environmental Impact Assessment (“EIA”). On October 23, 2012, a Cajamarca judge dismissed the claims based on formal grounds finding that: (i) plaintiffs had not exhausted previous administrative proceedings; (ii) the directorial resolution approving the Conga EIA is valid, and was not challenged when issued in the administrative proceedings; (iii) there was inadequate evidence to conclude that the Conga project is a threat to the constitutional right of living in an adequate environment; and (iv) the directorial resolution approving the Conga project EIA does not guarantee that the Conga project will proceed, so there was no imminent threat to be addressed by the Court. The plaintiffs appealed the dismissal of the case. The Civil Court of the Superior Court of Cajamarca confirmed the above mentioned resolution and the plaintiff presented an appeal. On March 13, 2015, the Constitutional Court published its ruling stating that the case should be sent back to the first court with an order to formally admit the case and start the judicial process in order to review the claim and the proofs presented by the plaintiff. Yanacocha has answered the claim. Neither the Company nor Yanacocha can reasonably predict the outcome of this litigation. Yanacocha Tax Dispute. In 2000, Yanacocha paid Buenaventura and Minas Conga S.R.L. a total of $29 to assume their respective contractual positions in mining concession agreements with Chaupiloma Dos de Cajamarca S.M.R.L. The contractual rights allowed Yanacocha the opportunity to conduct exploration on the concessions, but were not a purchase of the concessions. The tax authority alleged that the payments to Buenaventura and Minas Conga S.R.L. were acquisitions of mining concessions requiring the amortization of the amounts under the Peru Mining Law over the life of the mine. Yanacocha expensed the amounts at issue in the initial year since the payments were not for the acquisition of a concession but rather these expenses represented the payment of an intangible and therefore, were amortizable in a single year or proportionally for up to ten years according to Income Tax Law. In 2010, the tax court in Peru ruled in favor of Yanacocha and the tax authority appealed the issue to the judiciary. The first appellate court confirmed the ruling of the tax court in favor of Yanacocha. However, in November 2015, a Superior Court in Peru made an appellate decision overturning the two prior findings in favor of Yanacocha. Yanacocha appealed the Superior Court ruling to the Peru Supreme Court. In January 2019, the Peru Supreme Court issued notice that three judges supported the position of the tax authority and two judges supported the position of Yanacocha. Because four votes are required for a final decision, an additional judge was selected to issue a decision and the parties conducted oral arguments in April 2019. In February 2020, the additional judge ruled in favor of the tax authority, finalizing a decision of the Peru Supreme Court against Yanacocha. As a result of the decision, the company has recognized the amount of $29. However, Yanacocha filed two constitutional actions in 2020 and one additional legal claim in 2021, objecting to potential excessive interest and duplicity of criteria of up to $51, $73 and $69, respectively. In March 2021, in one of the constitutional actions, Yanacocha’s request for an injunction to suspend the collection of interest was denied. The matter was sent back to the tax authority, which issued a resolution with an update of the total amount due of approximately $80. Yanacocha has appealed the tax authority’s resolution and the administrative case is going to be decided by the tax court. It is not possible to fully predict the outcome of this litigation. NWG Investments Inc. v. Fronteer Gold Inc. In April 2011, Newmont acquired Fronteer Gold Inc. (“Fronteer”). Fronteer acquired NewWest Gold Corporation (“NewWest Gold”) in September 2007. At the time of that acquisition, NWG Investments Inc. (“NWG”) owned approximately 86% of NewWest Gold and an individual named Jacob Safra owned or controlled 100% of NWG. Prior to its acquisition of NewWest Gold, Fronteer entered into a June 2007 lock-up agreement with NWG providing that, among other things, NWG would support Fronteer’s acquisition of NewWest Gold. At that time, Fronteer owned approximately 47% of Aurora Energy Resources Inc. (“Aurora”), which, among other things, had a uranium exploration project in Labrador, Canada. NWG contends that, during the negotiations leading up to the lock-up agreement, Fronteer represented to NWG, among other things, that Aurora would commence uranium mining in Labrador by 2013, that this was a firm date, that Aurora faced no current environmental issues in Labrador and that Aurora’s competitors faced delays in commencing uranium mining. NWG further contends that it entered into the lock-up agreement and agreed to support Fronteer’s acquisition of NewWest Gold in reliance upon these purported representations. On October 11, 2007, less than three weeks after the Fronteer-NewWest Gold transaction closed, a member of the Nunatsiavut Assembly introduced a motion calling for the adoption of a moratorium on uranium mining in Labrador. On April 8, 2008, the Nunatsiavut Assembly adopted a three-year moratorium on uranium mining in Labrador. NWG contends that Fronteer was aware during the negotiations of the NWG/Fronteer lock-up agreement that the Nunatsiavut Assembly planned on adopting this moratorium and that its adoption would preclude Aurora from commencing uranium mining by 2013, but Fronteer nonetheless fraudulently induced NWG to enter into the lock-up agreement. On September 24, 2012, NWG served a summons and complaint on the Company, and then amended the complaint to add Newmont Canada Holdings ULC as a defendant. The complaint also named Fronteer Gold Inc. and Mark O’Dea as defendants. The complaint sought rescission of the merger between Fronteer and NewWest Gold and $750 in damages. In August 2013 the Supreme Court of New York, New York County issued an order granting the defendants’ motion to dismiss on forum non conveniens. Subsequently, NWG filed a notice of appeal of the decision and then a notice of dismissal of the appeal on March 24, 2014. On February 26, 2014, NWG filed a lawsuit in Ontario Superior Court of Justice against Fronteer Gold Inc., Newmont Mining Corporation, Newmont Canada Holdings ULC, Newmont FH B.V. and Mark O’Dea. The Ontario complaint is based upon substantially the same allegations contained in the New York lawsuit with claims for fraudulent and negligent misrepresentation. NWG seeks disgorgement of profits since the close of the NWG deal on September 24, 2007 and damages in the amount of C$1,200. Newmont, along with other defendants, served the plaintiff with its statement of defense on October 17, 2014. Newmont intends to vigorously defend this matter, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome. Newmont Ghana Gold Limited and Newmont Golden Ridge Limited - 100% Newmont Owned On December 24, 2018, two individual plaintiffs, who are members of the Ghana Parliament (“Plaintiffs”), filed a writ to invoke the original jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of Ghana. On January 16, 2019, Plaintiffs filed the Statement of Plaintiff’s Case outlining the details of the Plaintiff’s case and subsequently served Newmont Ghana Gold Limited (“NGGL”) and Newmont Golden Ridge Limited (“NGRL”) along with the other named defendants, the Attorney General of Ghana, the Minerals Commission of Ghana and 33 other mining companies with interests in Ghana. The Plaintiffs allege that under article 268 of the 1992 Constitution of Ghana that the mining company defendants are not entitled to carry out any exploitation of minerals or other natural resources in Ghana, unless their respective transactions, contracts or concessions are ratified or exempted from ratification by the Parliament of Ghana. Newmont’s current mining leases are both ratified by Parliament; NGGL June 13, 2001 mining lease, ratified by Parliament on October 21, 2008, and NGRL January 19, 2010 mining lease; ratified by Parliament on December 3, 2015. The writ alleges that any mineral exploitation prior to Parliament ratification is unconstitutional. The Plaintiffs seek several remedies including: (i) a declaration as to the meaning of constitutional language at issue; (ii) an injunction precluding exploitation of minerals for any mining company without prior Parliament ratification; (iii) a declaration that all revenue as a result of violation of the Constitution shall be accounted for and recovered via cash equivalent; and (iv) an order that the Attorney General and Minerals Commission submit all un-ratified mining leases, undertakings or contracts to Parliament for ratification. Newmont intends to vigorously defend this matter, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome. Goldcorp, Inc. 100% Newmont Owned Shareholder Action. On October 28, 2016 and February 14, 2017, separate proposed class actions were commenced in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice pursuant to the Class Proceedings Act (Ontario) against the Company and certain of its current and former officers. Both statement of claims alleged common law negligent misrepresentation in Goldcorp, Inc.’s public disclosure concerning the Peñasquito mine and also pleaded an intention to seek leave from the Court to proceed with an allegation of statutory misrepresentation pursuant to the secondary market civil liability provisions under the Securities Act (Ontario). By a consent order, the latter lawsuit proceeded, and the former action has been stayed. The active lawsuit purports to be brought on behalf of persons who acquired Goldcorp Inc.’s securities in the secondary market during an alleged class period from October 30, 2014 to August 23, 2016. An amended complaint has been filed in the active lawsuit, which removes the individual defendants, and requests leave of the Court to pursue only the statutory cause of action. The Company intends to vigorously defend this matter, but cannot reasonably predict the outcome. Mexico Tax Matters Tax Reassessment from Mexican Tax Authority . During 2016, the Mexican Tax Authority issued reassessment notices to several of Goldcorp, Inc.’s Mexican subsidiaries. Topics under dispute generally involve transfer pricing, deductibility of mine stripping costs, and gain recognized on certain asset sales. The Company has made significant progress in reaching resolution with the Mexican Tax Authority on these matters. In the second quarter of 2019, a number of issues were settled, resulting in a $96 payment, which was fully accrued in the financial statements. In the first quarter of 2020, further settlement was reached for an immaterial amount, with dialogue continuing in an effort to resolve the outstanding reassessment. Additionally, the Company continues to work through several audits in which observation letters have been received from the Mexican Tax Authority. The outcome of the remaining disputes is not readily determinable but could have a material impact on the Company. The Company believes that its tax positions are valid and intends to vigorously defend its tax filing positions. State of Zacatecas’ Ecological Tax. In December 2016, the State of Zacatecas in Mexico approved new environmental taxes that became effective January 1, 2017. Certain operations at the Company’s Peñasquito mine may be subject to these taxes. Payments are due monthly in arrears with the first payment due on February 17, 2017. The Company believes that there is no legal basis for the taxes and filed legal claims challenging their constitutionality and legality on March 9, 2017. Other companies similarly situated also filed legal claims against the taxes. The Mexican federal government also filed a claim before the National Supreme Court against the State of Zacatecas challenging whether the State of Zacatecas had the constitutional authority to implement the taxes. On February 11, 2019, the National Supreme Court of Mexico ruled that the State of Zacatecas has the constitutional authority to implement environmental taxes, and that ruling was not subject to appeal. The Company’s case continued, and although there was an initial ruling in favor of the Company, this ruling was appealed by the local tax authorities. On October 15, 2019, the First Collegiate Circuit Court of the Auxiliary Center of the Eleventh Region reversed the favorable ruling (except with respect to one issue, which was affirmed in the Company’s favor). While the First Collegiate Circuit Court’s ruling is not subject to further appeal and the Company currently has no legal challenges active with the Mexican courts, it is not possible to precisely calculate the environmental taxes given that: (a) the legislation is broadly worded and despite the years of inquiries, the State of Zacatecas has not put forward any guidance on how the tax would be levied; and (b) certain claims by other companies similarly situated are still being resolved by the Supreme Court, the results of which may change the taxes payable by the Company. The Company, along with other companies in the State of Zacatecas, is continuing to meet with governmental authorities to understand how the environmental tax would be levied. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company and the State of Zacatecas reached an agreement in principle for the Company to pay for the taxes in dispute related to tax years 2017-2020, and also arrived at a formula for the payments for tax years 2021-2024, with an agreed-upon basis for the extraction, storage activities, and gas emissions for such years. The agreements have been completed and ratified by the relevant governmental authorities, and total payments of $27 were made in the second quarter of 2021. Other Commitments and Contingencies Newmont is from time to time involved in various legal proceedings related to its business. Except in the above described proceedings, management does not believe that adverse decisions in any pending or threatened proceeding or that amounts that may be required to be paid by reason thereof will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. In connection with our investment in Galore Creek, Newmont will owe NovaGold Resources Inc. $75 upon the earlier of approval to construct a mine, mill and all related infrastructure for the Galore Creek project or the initiation of construction of a mine, mill or any related infrastructure. The amount due is non-interest bearing. The decision for an approval and commencement of construction is contingent on the results of a prefeasibility and feasibility study, neither of which have occurred. As such, this amount has not been accrued. Deferred payments to Barrick Gold Corporation (“Barrick”) of $155 and $156 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, are to be satisfied through funding a portion of Barrick’s share of project expenditures at the Norte Abierto project. These deferred payments to Barrick are included in Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities .

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	Jun. 30, 2021
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Risks and Uncertainties	Risks and Uncertainties As a global mining company, the Company’s revenue, profitability and future rate of growth are substantially dependent on prevailing metal prices, primarily for gold, but also for copper, silver, lead and zinc. Historically, the commodity markets have been very volatile, and there can be no assurance that commodity prices will not be subject to significant fluctuations in the future. A substantial or extended decline in commodity prices could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows, access to capital and on the quantities of reserves that the Company can economically produce. The carrying value of the Company’s Property, plant and mine development , net; Inventories; Stockpiles and ore on leach pads; Investments; Deferred income tax assets; and Goodwill are particularly sensitive to the outlook for commodity prices. A decline in the Company’s price outlook from current levels could result in material impairment charges related to these assets. In addition to changes in commodity prices, other factors such as changes in mine plans, increases in costs, geotechnical failures, changes in social, environmental or regulatory requirements, impacts of global events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and management’s decision to reprioritize or abandon a development project can adversely affect the Company’s ability to recover its investment in certain assets and result in impairment charges. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a material impact on the global economy, the scale and duration of which remain uncertain. In the first half of 2020, the Company temporarily placed Musselwhite, Éléonore, Yanacocha, Cerro Negro and Peñasquito into care and maintenance with each subsequently resuming operations during the second quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2021, all sites were fully operational, with the exception of Cerro Negro and Tanami. Cerro Negro continues to focus on returning operations to full capacity while managing ongoing COVID-related impacts. Tanami was temporarily placed into care and maintenance in late June 2021, in close coordination with the Australian government, to protect our employees and nearby communities, align with country mandated travel restrictions, and manage ongoing COVID-related impacts. As of July 22, 2021, Tanami operations have made strong progress in ramping up to full capacity. The impact of this pandemic could include placing additional sites into care and maintenance, significant COVID-19 specific costs, volatility in the prices for gold and other metals, logistical challenges shipping our products, delays in product refining and smelting due to restrictions or temporary closures, additional travel restrictions, other supply chain disruptions and workforce interruptions, including loss of life. Depending on the duration and extent of the impact of COVID-19, this could materially impact the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition and could result in material impairment charges to the Company’s Property, plant and mine development, net; Inventories; Stockpiles and ore on leach pads; Investments; Deferred income tax assets; and Goodwill .
Use of Estimates	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the accounting for and recognition and disclosure of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses. The Company must make these estimates and assumptions because certain information used is dependent on future events, cannot be calculated with a high degree of precision from data available or simply cannot be readily calculated based on generally accepted methodologies. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications Certain amounts in prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Securities and Exchange Commission Rules and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Securities and Exchange Commission Rules Accounting for Income Taxes In December 2019, Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2019-12 was issued to simplify the accounting for income taxes, eliminate certain exceptions within Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 740, Income Taxes, and clarify certain aspects of the current guidance to promote consistency among reporting entities. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures. Accounting for Equity Securities, Investments and Certain Forward Contracts and Options In January 2020, ASU No. 2020-01 was issued which clarifies the interaction in accounting for equity securities under ASC 321, investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting in ASC 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options accounted for under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures. Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses In May 2020, the SEC finalized its proposed updates to Rule 3-05 within Regulation S-X, Financial statements of businesses acquired or to be acquired, Rule 3-14, Special instructions for real estate operations to be acquired; Article 11, Pro Forma Financial Information; and other related rules and forms (the “Rules”). The Rules include amendments, which among other things: revise significance tests used to determine disclosure requirements; require the financial statements of the acquired business to cover only up to the two most recent fiscal years; permit the use of, or reconciliation to, International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board in certain circumstances; and amend certain pro forma financial information requirements. The Rules were adopted on January 1, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Effects of Reference Rate Reform In March 2020, ASU No. 2020-04 was issued which provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden on accounting for contract modifications caused by reference rate reform. This guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The guidance may be adopted over time as reference rate reform activities occur and should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company is still completing its evaluation of the impact of ASU 2020-04 and plans to elect optional expedients as reference rate reform activities occur. In January 2021, ASU No. 2021-01 was issued which broadened the scope of ASU No. 2020-04 to include certain derivative instruments. The Company expects neither the guidance nor the subsequent update to have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements or disclosures.
