Equity Method Investments The following table provides the income (loss) from the Company's equity method investments, recognized in Equity income (loss) of affiliates:
____________________________ (1)Includes the Company's proportionate share of a gain recognized by the Norte Abierto joint venture on the sale of one of its properties to a third party during the second quarter of 2026. Cash proceeds from the sale are expected to be distributed to the joint venture partners in the third quarter of 2026. The transaction resulted in the removal of all mineral resources associated with the sold property, which represented approximately 7%, 6%, and 3% of gold, copper, and silver resources, respectively, as disclosed in in Part I, Item 2, of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on February 19, 2026. There was no impact to the Company's reported reserves related to the sold property. Pueblo Viejo As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had outstanding stockholder loans to Pueblo Viejo of $530 and $518, which includes accrued interest of $49 and $60, respectively, included in the Pueblo Viejo equity method investment. The Company purchases its portion (40%) of gold and silver produced from Pueblo Viejo at market price and resells those ounces to third parties. Total payments made to Pueblo Viejo for gold and silver purchased were $334 and $612 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively. Total payments made to Pueblo Viejo for gold and silver purchased were $212 and $367 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. These purchases, net of subsequent sales, are included in Other income (loss), net and the net amounts are immaterial. There were no amounts due to or from Pueblo Viejo for gold and silver purchases as of June 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025. Lundin Gold Lundin Gold is accounted for on a quarterly lag. At June 30, 2026, the calculated fair value, based on quoted closing prices of publicly traded shares, of the Company's investment in Lundin Gold was $4,155. In the second quarter of 2026, Lundin Gold entered into a silver stream-for-equity transaction with LunR, pursuant to which Lundin Gold received common shares of LunR. These shares were subsequently distributed to Lundin Gold’s shareholders. As a result, Newmont received its pro rata distribution, representing an approximate 13% ownership interest in LunR, with a fair value of $268, which was recognized as a marketable equity security. The receipt of LunR shares was accounted for as a dividend in kind from Lundin Gold, resulting in a reduction of the carrying value of the Company’s investment in Lundin Gold equal to the fair value of the shares received.
