Financial instruments whose fair value is similar to their book value –

For financial assets and liabilities such as cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables that are liquid or have short-term maturities (less than three months), it is estimated that their book value is similar to their fair value. Likewise, derivatives are recorded at fair value, so there are no differences to disclose.

The fair value of accounts receivable is determined using valuation techniques with information directly observable in the market (future metal quotations).

Financial instruments at fixed and variable rates -

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities at fixed and variable rates at amortized cost is determined by comparing the market interest rates at the time of their initial recognition to the current market rates with regard to similar financial instruments. The estimated fair value of deposits that accrue interest is determined by means of cash flows discounted using the prevailing market interest rates in the currency with similar maturities and credit risks.

Based on the foregoing, there are no important existing differences between the book value and the fair value of the assets and financial liabilities as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during 2023 and 2022.

22.  Hierarchy and fair value of financial instruments

Hierarchy -

As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the only financial assets carried at fair value are embedded derivatives, included in trade accounts receivable and related parties, which are generated by the sale of copper, molybdenum and silver and measured at fair value based on commodity prices. The net value of this embedded derivative as of December 31, 2024, was a liability of US$37.6 million (asset of US$37.4 million as of December 31, 2023). Embedded derivatives are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of embedded derivatives is determined using information directly observable in the market (forward prices of metals).

Financial instruments whose fair value is similar to their book value -

For financial assets and liabilities which are liquid or have short-term maturities (less than three months), such as cash and cash equivalent, accounts receivable, other accounts receivable, accounts payable, other accounts payable, and other current liabilities, it is estimated that their book value is similar to their fair value.

Financial instruments at fixed and variable rates -

Financial assets and liabilities with fixed or variable rates are recorded at amortized cost and fair value is determined by comparing the market interest rates at the time of their initial recognition to the current market rates for similar financial instruments.

Based on the foregoing, there are no significant differences between the book value and the fair value of financial instruments (assets and liabilities) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.
