Footnote
* Main water supply sources are defined as groundwater (GW), surface water (SW), sea water (CW) and municipal/third-party water (MW). Precipitation inputs to operations are not identified as surface water supplies for this figure.
** Baseline water stress as defined by WRI Aqueduct and adjusted per the narrative.
*** Baseline water stress does not consider interannual variability. Interannual variability can also increase the risk of water stress. For example, Boddington can have years of baseline water stress in dry years or excess water in wet years, but overall it is not considered to be situated in a watershed with high or greater baseline water stress.
**** The Tanami desert experiences seasonal flooding attributable to cyclonic and tropical low precipitation and topography. Road access may be disrupted. Tanami was previously considered a water-stressed site. However, beginning with the 2024 reporting period, Tanami is no longer designated as a water-stressed site, and, as such, the “water stress” water risk designation has been removed from our Watershed-based Risks map.
***** Portions of Yanacocha are located in water-stressed areas, while other portions are not, and the risk of water stress is managed through water transfer between areas.
