General Information	GENERAL INFORMATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S.).

The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods reported. All such adjustments are, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. PT-FI.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share	EARNINGS PER SHARE FCX calculates its basic net income per share of common stock under the two-class method and calculates its diluted net income per share of common stock using the more dilutive of the two-class method or the treasury-stock method. Basic net income per share of common stock was computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders (after deducting accumulated dividends and undistributed earnings to participating securities) by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share of common stock was calculated by including the basic weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding adjusted for the effects of all potential dilutive shares of common stock, unless their effect would be antidilutive. Reconciliations of net income and weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted net income per share follow (in millions, except per share amounts): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Net income $ 731 $ 1,038 $ 1,780 $ 2,942 Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests (388) (198) (774) (575) Undistributed dividends and earnings allocated to participating securities (5) (4) (5) (5) Net income attributable to common stockholders $ 338 $ 836 $ 1,001 $ 2,362 Basic weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding 1,434 1,447 1,434 1,451 Add shares issuable upon exercise or vesting of dilutive stock options and restricted stock units (RSUs) 8 10 9 12 Diluted weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding 1,442 1,457 1,443 1,463 Net income per share attributable to common stockholders: Basic $ 0.24 $ 0.58 $ 0.70 $ 1.63 Diluted $ 0.23 $ 0.57 $ 0.69 $ 1.61 Shares associated with outstanding stock options with exercise prices greater than the average market price of FCX’s common stock during the period are excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share of common stock.

The increase in finished goods inventory at June 30, 2023, was associated with the change in PT-FI's commercial arrangement with PT Smelting (PT-FI’s 39.5% owned copper smelter and refinery in Gresik, Indonesia) from a copper concentrate sales agreement to a tolling arrangement beginning on January 1, 2023. At June 30, 2023, approximately 85 million pounds of copper and 40 thousand ounces of gold from PT-FI’s production was deferred in inventory and will be sold as refined metal in future periods. c.

Income Taxes	INCOME TAXES Geographic sources of FCX’s benefit (provision) for income taxes follow (in millions): Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 2022 U.S. operations $ 3 $ (5) International operations (1,041) (1,390) Total $ (1,038) $ (1,395) FCX’s consolidated effective income tax rate was 37% for the first six months of 2023 and 32% for the first six months of 2022. The higher 2023 effective income tax rate reflects the impact of pre-tax, nondeductible charges totaling $142 million for the first six months of 2023 associated with contested tax rulings by the Peruvian Supreme Court. In addition, variations in the relative proportions of jurisdictional income result in fluctuations to FCX’s consolidated effective income tax rate. Because of its U.S. tax position, FCX does not record a financial statement impact for income or losses generated in the U.S. The provisions of the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the Act) became applicable to FCX on January 1, 2023. The Act includes, among other provisions, a new Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (CAMT) of 15% on the adjusted financial statement income (AFSI) of corporations with average AFSI exceeding $1.0 billion over a three-year period. As limited guidance related to how the CAMT provisions of the Act should be applied or otherwise administered has been released by the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Treasury), uncertainty remains regarding the application of the CAMT. FCX has made interpretations of certain provisions of the Act, and based on these interpretations, determined that the provisions of the Act did not impact its financial results for the first six months of

On June 21, 2023, FCX’s Board of Directors (Board) declared cash dividends totaling $0.15 per share on its common stock (including a $0.075 per share quarterly base cash dividend and a $0.075 per share quarterly variable, performance-based cash dividend), which was paid on August 1, 2023, to common stockholders of record as of July 14, 2023. The declaration and payment of dividends (base or variable) and timing and amount of any share repurchases are at the discretion of FCX’s Board and management, respectively, and are subject to a number of factors, including not exceeding FCX’s net debt target, capital availability, FCX’s financial results, cash requirements, global economic conditions, changes in laws, contractual restrictions and other factors deemed relevant by FCX’s Board or management, as applicable. FCX’s share repurchase program may be modified, increased, suspended or terminated at any time at the Board’s discretion.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Financial Instruments	FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS FCX does not purchase, hold or sell derivative financial instruments unless there is an existing asset or obligation, or it anticipates a future activity that is likely to occur and will result in exposure to market risks, which FCX intends to offset or mitigate. FCX does not enter into any derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes but has entered into derivative financial instruments in limited instances to achieve specific objectives. These objectives principally relate to managing risks associated with commodity price changes, foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Commodity Contracts. From time to time, FCX has entered into derivative contracts to hedge the market risk associated with fluctuations in the prices of commodities it purchases and sells. Derivative financial instruments used by FCX to manage its risks do not contain credit risk-related contingent provisions. A discussion of FCX’s other derivative contracts and programs follows. Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments - Fair Value Hedges. Copper Futures and Swap Contracts. Some of FCX’s U.S. copper rod and cathode customers request a fixed market price instead of the Commodity Exchange Inc. (COMEX) average copper price in the month of shipment. FCX hedges this price exposure in a manner that allows it to receive the COMEX average price in the month of shipment while the customers pay the fixed price they requested. FCX accomplishes this by entering into copper futures or swap contracts. Hedging gains or losses from these copper futures and swap contracts are recorded in revenues. FCX did not have any significant gains or losses resulting from hedge ineffectiveness during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. At June 30, 2023, FCX held copper futures and swap contracts that qualified for hedge accounting for 88 million pounds at an average contract price of $3.88 per pound, with maturities through May 2025. Summary of (Losses) Gains. A summary of the realized and unrealized (losses) gains recognized in revenues for derivative financial instruments related to commodity contracts that are designated and qualify as fair value hedge transactions, including on the related hedged item follows (in millions): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Copper futures and swap contracts: Unrealized (losses) gains: Derivative financial instruments $ (25) $ (89) $ (11) $ (78) Hedged item – firm sales commitments 25 89 11 78 Realized (losses) gains: Matured derivative financial instruments (5) (12) 3 2 Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments. Embedded Derivatives. Certain FCX sales contracts provide for provisional pricing primarily based on the London Metal Exchange (LME) copper price or the COMEX copper price and the London Bullion Market Association (London) gold price at the time of shipment as specified in the contract. FCX receives market prices based on prices in the specified future month, which results in price fluctuations recorded in revenues until the date of settlement. FCX records revenues and invoices customers at the time of shipment based on then-current LME or COMEX copper prices and the London gold price as specified in the contracts, which results in an embedded derivative ( i.e. , a pricing mechanism that is finalized after the time of delivery) that is required to be bifurcated from the host contract. The host contract is the sale of the metals contained in the concentrate, cathode or anode slimes at the then-current LME copper, COMEX copper or London gold prices. FCX applies the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception in accordance with derivatives and hedge accounting guidance to the host contract in its concentrate, cathode and anode slime sales agreements since these contracts do not allow for net settlement and always result in physical delivery. The embedded derivative does not qualify for hedge accounting and is adjusted to fair value through earnings each period, using the period-end LME or COMEX copper forward prices and the adjusted London gold price, until the date of final pricing. Similarly, FCX purchases copper under contracts that provide for provisional pricing. Mark-to-market price fluctuations from these embedded derivatives are recorded through the settlement date and are reflected in revenues for sales contracts and in inventory for purchase contracts. A summary of FCX’s embedded derivatives at June 30, 2023, follows: Open Positions Average Price Maturities Through Contract Market Embedded derivatives in provisional sales contracts: Copper (millions of pounds) 587 $ 3.90 $ 3.78 November 2023 Gold (thousands of ounces) 165 1,980 1,919 September 2023 Embedded derivatives in provisional purchase contracts: Copper (millions of pounds) 152 3.89 3.77 October 2023 Copper Forward Contracts. Atlantic Copper, FCX’s wholly owned smelting and refining unit in Spain, enters into copper forward contracts designed to hedge its copper price risk whenever its physical purchases and sales pricing periods do not match. These economic hedge transactions are intended to hedge against changes in copper prices, with the mark-to-market hedging gains or losses recorded in production and delivery costs. At June 30, 2023, Atlantic Copper held net copper forward purchase contracts for 7 million pounds at an average contract price of $3.81 per pound, with maturities through August 2023. Summary of (Losses) Gains. A summary of the realized and unrealized (losses) gains recognized in operating income for commodity contracts that do not qualify as hedge transactions, including embedded derivatives, follows (in millions): Three Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Embedded derivatives in provisional sales contracts: a Copper $ (169) $ (720) $ 61 $ (502) Gold and other metals (21) (33) 22 (11) Copper forward contracts b 1 22 (1) 26 a.

A summary of the fair values of unsettled commodity derivative financial instruments follows (in millions): June 30, December 31, 2022 Commodity Derivative Assets: Derivatives designated as hedging instruments : Copper futures and swap contracts $ — $ 3 Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments : Embedded derivatives in provisional sales/purchase contracts 37 166 Copper forward contracts — 1 Total derivative assets $ 37 $ 170 Commodity Derivative Liabilities: Derivatives designated as hedging instruments : Copper futures and swap contracts $ 10 $ 3 Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments : Embedded derivatives in provisional sales/purchase contracts 100 39 Total derivative liabilities $ 110 $ 42 FCX’s commodity contracts have netting arrangements with counterparties with which the right of offset exists, and it is FCX’s policy to generally offset balances by contract on its balance sheet. FCX’s embedded derivatives on provisional sales/purchase contracts are netted with the corresponding outstanding receivable/payable balances. A summary of these unsettled commodity contracts that are offset in the balance sheet follows (in millions): Assets Liabilities June 30, December 31, 2022 June 30, December 31, 2022 Gross amounts recognized: Commodity contracts: Embedded derivatives in provisional sales/purchase contracts $ 37 $ 166 $ 99 $ 39 Copper derivatives — 4 11 3 37 170 110 42 Less gross amounts of offset: Commodity contracts: Embedded derivatives in provisional sales/purchase contracts 9 — 9 — 9 — 9 — Net amounts presented in balance sheet: Commodity contracts: Embedded derivatives in provisional sales/purchase contracts 28 166 90 39 Copper derivatives — 4 11 3 $ 28 $ 170 $ 101 $ 42 Balance sheet classification: Trade accounts receivable $ 8 $ 163 $ 72 $ 7 Other current assets — 4 — — Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 20 3 29 34 Other liabilities — — — 1 $ 28 $ 170 $ 101 $ 42 Credit Risk. FCX is exposed to credit loss when financial institutions with which it has entered into derivative transactions (commodity, foreign exchange and interest rate swaps) are unable to pay. To minimize the risk of such losses, FCX uses counterparties that meet certain credit requirements and periodically reviews the creditworthiness of these counterparties. As of June 30, 2023, the maximum amount of credit exposure associated with derivative transactions was $37 million. Other Financial Instruments. Other financial instruments include cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investment securities, legally restricted trust assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, accrued income taxes, dividends payable and debt. The carrying value for these financial instruments classified as current assets or liabilities approximates fair value because of their short-term nature and generally negligible credit losses (refer to Note 7 for the fair values of investment securities, legally restricted funds and debt). In addition, as of June 30, 2023, FCX had contingent consideration assets related to the sales of certain oil and gas properties (refer to Note 7 for the related fair values). Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents. The following table provides a reconciliation of total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows (in millions): June 30, December 31, 2022 Balance sheet components: Cash and cash equivalents a,b $ 6,683 $ 8,146 Restricted cash and cash equivalents included in: Other current assets 119 111 Other assets 134 133 Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and cash equivalents presented in the consolidated statements of cash flows $ 6,936 $ 8,390 a.

Fair Value Measurement

Fair Value Measurement	6 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurement	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT Fair value accounting guidance includes a 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) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). FCX did not have any significant transfers in or out of Level 3 during second-quarter 2023. FCX’s financial instruments are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value except for contingent consideration associated with the sale of the Deepwater Gulf of Mexico (GOM) oil and gas properties (which was recorded under the loss recovery approach) and debt. A summary of the carrying amount and fair value of FCX’s financial instruments (including those measured at net asset value (NAV) as a practical expedient), other than cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, accrued income taxes and dividends payable (refer to Note 6) follows (in millions): At June 30, 2023 Carrying Fair Value Amount Total NAV Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets Investment securities: a,b U.S. core fixed income fund $ 26 $ 26 $ 26 $ — $ — $ — Equity securities 5 5 — 5 — — Total 31 31 26 5 — — Legally restricted funds: a U.S. core fixed income fund 63 63 63 — — — Government mortgage-backed securities 40 40 — — 40 — Government bonds and notes 33 33 — — 33 — Corporate bonds 31 31 — — 31 — Asset-backed securities 19 19 — — 19 — Money market funds 17 17 — 17 — — Collateralized mortgage-backed securities 2 2 — — 2 — Total 205 205 63 17 125 — Embedded derivatives in provisional sales/purchase contracts in a gross asset position c 37 37 — — 37 — Contingent consideration for the sale of the Deepwater GOM oil and gas properties a 59 51 — — — 51 Liabilities Derivatives: c Embedded derivatives in provisional sales/purchase contracts in a gross liability position 100 100 — — 100 — Copper futures and swap contracts 10 10 — 8 2 — Total 110 110 — 8 102 — Long-term debt, including current portion d 9,495 9,129 — — 9,129 — At December 31, 2022 Carrying Fair Value Amount Total NAV Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets Investment securities: a,b U.S. core fixed income fund $ 25 $ 25 $ 25 $ — $ — $ — Equity securities 7 7 — 7 — — Total 32 32 25 7 — — Legally restricted funds: a U.S. core fixed income fund 56 56 56 — — — Government mortgage-backed securities 37 37 — — 37 — Government bonds and notes 34 34 — — 34 — Corporate bonds 31 31 — — 31 — Asset-backed securities 17 17 — — 17 — Money market funds 3 3 — 3 — — Collateralized mortgage-backed securities 3 3 — — 3 — Total 181 181 56 3 122 — Derivatives: c Embedded derivatives in provisional sales/purchase contracts in a gross asset position 166 166 — — 166 — Copper futures and swap contracts 3 3 — 3 — — Copper forward contracts 1 1 — 1 — — Total 170 170 — 4 166 — Contingent consideration for the sale of the Deepwater GOM oil and gas properties a 67 57 — — — 57 Liabilities Derivatives: c Embedded derivatives in provisional sales/purchase contracts in a gross liability position 39 39 — — 39 — Copper forward contracts 3 3 — — 3 — Total 42 42 — — 42 — Long-term debt, including current portion d 10,620 10,097 — — 10,097 — a.

Refer to Note 6 for further discussion and balance sheet classifications. d. Recorded at cost except for debt assumed in acquisitions, which are recorded at fair value at the respective acquisition dates. Valuation Techniques. The U.S. core fixed income fund is valued at NAV. The fund strategy seeks total return consisting of income and capital appreciation primarily by investing in a broad range of investment-grade debt securities, including U.S. government obligations, corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities and money market instruments. There are no restrictions on redemptions (which are usually within one business day of notice). Equity securities are valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded and, as such, are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Fixed income securities (government securities, corporate bonds, asset-backed securities and collateralized mortgage-backed securities) are valued using a bid-evaluation price or a mid-evaluation price. These evaluations are based on quoted prices, if available, or models that use observable inputs and, as such, are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Money market funds are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices in active markets. FCX’s embedded derivatives on provisional copper concentrate, copper cathode and gold purchases and sales are valued using quoted monthly LME or COMEX copper forward prices and the adjusted London gold price at each reporting date based on the month of maturity (refer to Note 6 for further discussion); however, FCX’s contracts themselves are not traded on an exchange. As a result, these derivatives are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. FCX’s derivative financial instruments for copper futures and swap contracts and copper forward contracts that are traded on the respective exchanges are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted monthly COMEX or LME prices at each reporting date based on the month of maturity (refer to Note 6 for further discussion). Certain of these contracts are traded on the over-the-counter market and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy based on COMEX and LME forward prices. In December 2016, FCX’s sale of its Deepwater GOM oil and gas properties included up to $150 million in contingent consideration that was recorded at the total amount under the loss recovery approach. The contingent consideration is being received over time as cash flows are realized from a third-party production handling agreement for an offshore platform, with the related payments commencing in 2018. The contingent consideration included in (i) other current assets totaled $17 million at June 30, 2023, and $20 million at December 31, 2022, and (ii) other assets totaled $42 million at June 30, 2023, and $47 million at December 31, 2022. The fair value of this contingent consideration was calculated based on a discounted cash flow model using inputs that include third-party estimates for reserves, production rates and production timing, and discount rates. Because significant inputs are not observable in the market, the contingent consideration is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Long-term debt, including current portion, is primarily valued using available market quotes and, as such, is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The techniques described above may produce a fair value that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while FCX believes its valuation techniques are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different techniques or assumptions to determine fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. There have been no changes in the techniques used at June 30, 2023, as compared with those techniques used at December 31, 2022. A summary of the changes in the fair value of FCX’s Level 3 instrument, contingent consideration for the sale of the Deepwater GOM oil and gas properties, during the first six months of 2023 follows (in millions): Fair value at January 1, 2023 $ 57 Net unrealized gain related to assets still held at the end of the period 1 Settlements (7) Fair value at June 30, 2023 $ 51

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Contingencies and Commitments	CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS Environmental There were no significant updates to previously reported environmental matters included in Note 12 of FCX’s 2022 Form 10-K, other than the matter discussed below. Historical Smelter Sites. On January 30, 2017, a putative class action titled Juan Duarte, Betsy Duarte and N.D., Infant, by Parents and Natural Guardians Juan Duarte and Betsy Duarte, Leroy Nobles and Betty Nobles, on behalf of themselves and all others similarly situated v. United States Metals Refining Company, Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc. and Amax Realty Development, Inc. , Docket No. 734-17, was filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey. In July 2023, the Court approved an agreement between the parties pursuant to which all claims were settled for an amount not material to FCX. Litigation There were no significant updates to previously reported legal proceedings included in Note 12 of FCX’s 2022 Form 10-K, other than the matter discussed below. Louisiana Parishes Coastal Erosion Cases. Certain FCX affiliates were named as defendants, along with numerous co-defendants, in 13 cases out of a total of 42 cases filed in Louisiana state courts by 6 south Louisiana parishes (Cameron, Jefferson, Plaquemines, St. Bernard, St. John the Baptist and Vermilion), alleging that certain oil and gas exploration and production operations and sulfur mining and production operations in coastal Louisiana contaminated and damaged coastal wetlands and caused significant land loss along the Louisiana coast. In 2019, affiliates of FCX reached an agreement in principle to settle all 13 cases and, as of October 2022, all parties have executed the settlement agreement. On March 16, 2023, a non-plaintiff coastal parish included in the settlement (Terrebonne), filed an amended petition titled Terrebonne Parish Consolidated Government vs. Louisiana Department of Natural Resources et al. , Docket No. 185576, in the 32nd Judicial District Court, Terrebonne Parish, State of Louisiana, adding the settling FCX affiliates to a lawsuit that challenges whether Terrebonne Parish is validly bound to the settlement agreement and seeks to have the court declare the settlement void. FCX is evaluating and exploring options to resolve this dispute and will vigorously defend this matter. Other Matters Indonesia Regulatory Matters Over the past several years, the Indonesia government has enacted various laws and regulations to promote downstream processing of various minerals, including copper concentrates. Export License. On June 10, 2023, export licenses for several exporters, including PT-FI, expired. During the second quarter and through July 2023, the Indonesia government issued various regulations to address exports of unrefined metals, including regulations by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR) to allow continued exports of copper concentrates through May 2024 for companies engaged in ongoing smelter development projects with construction progress greater than 50%, and regulations by the Ministry of Trade on the permitted export of various products, including copper concentrates. On July 24, 2023, PT-FI was granted an export license through May 2024 for 1.7 million metric tons of copper concentrate. PT-FI will continue to work with the Indonesia government to obtain approvals to continue exports until the Manyar smelter is fully commissioned and has reached designed operating conditions. Export Duties. Under PT-FI’s special mining license (IUPK), export duties are determined based on regulations that were in effect in 2018, which provided that no duties are required after smelter construction progress reached 50%. In March 2023, the Indonesia government verified that construction progress on the Manyar smelter exceeded 50% and PT-FI's export duties were eliminated effective March 29, 2023. In July 2023, the Ministry of Finance issued a revised regulation on duties for various exported products, including copper concentrates. The revised regulation assesses export duties for copper concentrates at 7.5% in the second half of 2023 and 10% in 2024 for companies with smelter progress of 70% to 90%. For companies with smelter progress above 90%, export duties would be 5% in the second half of 2023 and 7.5% in 2024. PT-FI is continuing to discuss the applicability of the revised regulation with the Indonesia government and will contest, and seek recovery of, any assessments. Smelter Development Progress . In 2018, PT-FI agreed to expand its domestic smelting and refining capacity to process all of its copper concentrates in Indonesia. PT-FI is advancing the construction of the Indonesia smelter projects and expanding capacity at PT Smelting. PT-FI estimates construction of the Manyar smelter to be complete in mid-2024 followed by commissioning of the facilities and a ramp-up schedule through year-end 2024. As disclosed in Note 12 of FCX’s 2022 Form 10-K, in March 2022, PT-FI paid the Indonesia government an administrative fine totaling $57 million (which included charges of $41 million recorded in first-quarter 2022) related to smelter development delays in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. In May 2023, MEMR issued a decree prescribing a revised formula for administrative fines for delays in construction of smelter and refining facilities, taking into account allowances for certain delays associated with the COVID-19 pandemic as verified by a third-party. In mid-July 2023, PT-FI submitted its third-party verified calculation, which resulted in an accrual for a potential administrative fine of $55 million based on the formula prescribed by the decree related to the period from August 2020 through January 2022. PT-FI continues to discuss the applicability of this administrative fine with MEMR. Based on PT-FI’s revised smelter construction schedule, which was accepted by the Indonesia government in connection with the renewal of PT-FI's export license in early 2022, PT-FI does not believe any additional fines should be assessed under the decree. Smelter Bond. The May 2023 decree by MEMR also requires an assurance bond to be held in escrow until project completion. PT-FI has an existing assurance bond to support its commitment for additional smelter development in Indonesia, which totals $134 million at June 30, 2023 (refer to Note 7), and may be required to make an additional refundable deposit of approximately $250 million in connection with the May 2023 decree. Export Proceeds . The Indonesia government issued a regulation that became effective August 1, 2023, that requires 30% of PT-FI’s gross export proceeds to be temporarily deposited into Indonesia banks for a period of 90 days before withdrawal. PT-FI is reviewing implementing guidelines associated with this regulation.

Business Segments

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Business Segments	BUSINESS SEGMENTS FCX has organized its mining operations into four primary divisions - North America copper mines, South America mining, Indonesia mining and Molybdenum mines, and operating segments that meet certain thresholds are reportable segments. Separately disclosed in the following tables are FCX’s reportable segments, which include the Morenci and Cerro Verde copper mines, the Grasberg minerals district (Indonesia Mining), the Rod & Refining operations and Atlantic Copper Smelting & Refining. Intersegment sales between FCX’s business segments are based on terms similar to arms-length transactions with third parties at the time of the sale. Intersegment sales may not be reflective of the actual prices ultimately realized because of a variety of factors, including additional processing, timing of sales to unaffiliated customers and transportation premiums. FCX defers recognizing profits on sales from its mining operations to Atlantic Copper (and on 39.5% of PT-FI’s sales to PT Smelting for the 2022 periods) until final sales to third parties occur. Quarterly variations in ore grades, the timing of intercompany shipments and changes in product prices result in variability in FCX’s net deferred profits and quarterly earnings. Beginning January 1, 2023, PT-FI's commercial arrangement with PT Smelting converted from a copper concentrate sales agreement to a tolling arrangement. Under this arrangement, PT-FI pays PT Smelting a tolling fee to smelt and refine its copper concentrate and PT-FI retains title to all products for sale to third parties ( i.e., there are no further sales from PT-FI to PT Smelting). While the new tolling agreement with PT Smelting does not significantly change PT-FI’s economics, it impacts the timing of PT-FI’s sales and working capital requirements. FCX allocates certain operating costs, expenses and capital expenditures to its operating divisions and individual segments. However, not all costs and expenses applicable to an operation are allocated. U.S. federal and state income taxes are recorded and managed at the corporate level (included in Corporate, Other & Eliminations), whereas foreign income taxes are recorded and managed at the applicable country level. In addition, most mining exploration and research activities are managed on a consolidated basis, and those costs, along with some selling, general and administrative costs, are not allocated to the operating divisions or individual segments. Accordingly, the following Financial Information by Business Segment reflects management determinations that may not be indicative of what the actual financial performance of each operating division or segment would be if it was an independent entity.
