investments and deferred tax assets. 
 
4.   Revenues 
 
Copper and molybdenum concentrate sale agreements and copper cathode sale agreements generally provide for provisional
pricing of sales at the time of shipment, with final pricing being based on the monthly average London Metal Exchange
copper price or monthly average molybdenum price for specified future periods. This normally ranges from one to five months
after shipment to the customer.  The provisional pricing mechanism within the sale agreements is an embedded derivative
under IFRS. Gains and losses from the marking-to-market of open sales are recognised through adjustments to revenue in the
income statement and to trade debtors in the balance sheet. The Group determines mark-to-market prices using forward prices
at each period end for copper concentrate and cathode sales, and period-end month average prices for molybdenum concentrate
sales due to the absence of a futures market in the market price references for that commodity in the majority of the
Group's contracts. 
 
In addition to mark to market and final pricing adjustments, revenue also includes realised gains and losses relating to
derivative commodity instruments. Details of these realised gains or losses are shown in the tables below. Further details
of derivative commodity instruments in place at the period end are given in Note 5. 
 
Copper and molybdenum concentrate sales are stated net of deductions for tolling charges, as shown in the tables below.

Copper concentrate 
 
The typical period for which sales of copper concentrate remain open until settlement occurs is a range of approximately
three to five months from shipment date. 
 
At 30 June 2014 copper concentrate sales totalling 191,800 tonnes remained open as to price, with an average mark-to-market
price of US$3.19/lb compared with an average provisional invoice price of US$3.07/lb. At 30 June 2013 copper concentrate
sales totalling 161,900 tonnes remained open as to price, with an average mark-to-market price of US$3.06/lb compared with
an average provisional invoice price of US$3.28/lb. At 31 December 2013 sales totalling 172,000 tonnes remained open as to
price, with an average mark-to-market price of US$3.34/lb compared with an average provisional invoice price of

shipment date. 
 
At 30 June 2014 sales totalling 11,800 tonnes remained open as to price, with an average mark-to-market price of US$3.19
/lb compared with an average provisional invoice price of US$3.14 /lb. At 30 June 2013 sales totalling 10,700 tonnes
remained open as to price, with an average mark-to-market price of US$3.06/lb compared with an average provisional invoice
price of US$3.15/lb. At 31 December 2013 sales totalling 13,500 tonnes remained open as to price, with an average

As detailed above, the effects of gains and losses from the marking-to-market of open sales are recognised through
adjustments to revenue in the income statement and to trade debtors in the balance sheet. The effect of mark-to-market
adjustments on the balance sheet at the end of each period are as follows:

Recurring fair value measurements are those that are required in the balance sheet at the end of each reporting period. 
 
Non-recurring fair value measurements are those that are required in particular circumstances e.g. when the recoverable
amount of an asset  is determined to be fair value less cost to sell according to IAS 36 Impairment of assets. There were
no non-recurring fair value measurements in the six months ending 30 June 2014. 
 
Derivatives in designated hedge accounting relationships are valued using a discounted cash flow analysis valuation model,
which includes observable credit spreads and using the applicable yield curve for the duration of the instruments for
non-optional derivatives, and option pricing models for optional derivatives. These are level 2 inputs as described below. 
 
Available for sale investments are investments in shares on active markets and are valued using unadjusted quoted market
values of the shares at the financial reporting date. These are level 1 inputs as described below. 
 
Provisionally priced metal sales for the period are marked-to-market at the end of the period. Gains and losses from the
marking-to-market of open sales are recognised through adjustments to revenue in the income statement and trade debtors in
the balance sheet. Forward prices at the end of the period are used for copper sales while period-end average prices are
used for molybdenum concentrate sales. These are level 2 inputs as described below. 
 
Financial assets measured at fair value through profit and loss are highly liquid current asset investments that are valued
using market prices at the period end. These are level 1 inputs as described below. 
 
The inputs to the valuation techniques described above are categorised into three levels, giving the highest priority to
unadjusted quoted prices in active markets (level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 inputs): 
 
-     Level 1 fair value measurement inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities. 
 
-     Level 2 fair value measurement inputs are derived from inputs other than quoted market prices included in level 1
that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. 
 
-     Level 3 fair value measurement inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. 
 
The degree to which inputs into the valuation techniques used to measure the financial assets and liabilities are
observable and the significance of these inputs in the valuation are considered in determining whether any transfers
between levels have occurred. In the six months ending 30 June 2014 there were no transfers between levels in the
hierarchy. 
 
b)             Embedded derivatives 
 
As explained in Note 4, copper and molybdenum concentrate sale agreements and copper cathode sale agreements generally
provide for provisional pricing of sales at the time of shipment, with final pricing being based on the monthly average
London Metal Exchange copper price or monthly average molybdenum price for specified future periods. The provisional
pricing mechanism within the sale agreements is an embedded derivative under IFRS. Details of the provisional pricing
arrangements are included in Note 4. 
 
c)             Derivative financial instruments 
 
The Group periodically uses derivative financial instruments to reduce its exposure to commodity price, foreign exchange
and interest rate movements.  The Group does not use such derivative instruments for speculative trading purposes. 
 
The Group has applied the hedge accounting provisions of IAS 39 "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement". 
Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments that are designated and effective as hedges of future cash
flows have been recognised directly in equity, with such amounts subsequently recognised in the income statement in the
period when the hedged item affects derivatives recognise in the income statement have been recorded within revenue. The
time value element of changes in the fair value of derivative options is excluded from the designated hedging relationship,
and is therefore recognised directly in the income statement within other finance items. 
 
(i)            Mark-to-market adjustments and income statement impact 
 
The balance sheet mark-to-market adjustments in respect of derivatives at the end of each period, and the total effect on
the income statement and reserves for each period, are as follows. The impact on reserves is shown before tax and
non-controlling interests.
