FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT: |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT: | ​ NOTE 12 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT: ​ Subtopic 820-10 of ASC “Fair value measurement and disclosures — Overall” establishes a fair value 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 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under Subtopic 820-10 are described below: ​ Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. ​ Level 2 - Inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, but do not qualify as Level 1 inputs. (i.e., quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities). ​ Level 3 - Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity). ​ The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable (other than accounts receivable associated with provisionally priced sales) and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Consequently, such financial instruments are not included in the following table, which provides information about the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of other financial instruments that are not measured at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in millions): ​

Long-term debt level 1 | ​ | ​ | 6,195.8 | ​ | ​ | 8,124.6 | ​ | ​ | 6,193.6 | ​ | ​ | 8,692.1

Total long-term debt | ​ | $ | 6,546.7 | ​ | $ | 8,503.0 | ​ | $ | 6,544.2 | ​ | $ | 9,077.8
​ Long-term debt is carried at amortized cost and its estimated fair value is based on quoted market prices classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy except for the cases of the Yankee bonds and the notes due 2022, which qualify as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as they are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active. ​ Fair values of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were calculated as follows as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in millions):

​ The Company’s short-term trading securities investments are classified as Level 1 because they are valued using quoted prices of the same securities as they consist of bonds issued by public companies and are publicly traded. The Company’s short-term available-for-sale investments are classified as Level 2 because they are valued using quoted prices for similar investments. ​ The Company’s accounts receivables associated with provisionally priced copper sales are valued using quoted market prices based on the forward price on the LME or on the COMEX. Such value is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Molybdenum prices are established by reference to the publication Platts Metals Week and are considered Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. ​ In addition, in the third quarter of 2021 the Company acquired two derivative instruments to protect natural gas costs from estimated price increases in the coming winter season. These derivative instruments will cover the period from November 2021 through March 2022. For further information please refer to Note 6 “Derivative instruments.”
