EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS |
EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS | 14.EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS ​ Defined Contribution Plans ​ All regular full-time employees are eligible to participate in a defined contribution profit sharing and savings plan (“PSSP”) that we sponsor. PSSP participants may elect to make voluntary contributions to this plan up to a specified amount of their compensation. We make matching contributions based on a percent of an employee’s eligible compensation and also make an additional non-matching contribution. Our contribution expense for the PSSP was approximately $25.5 million, $21.8 million and $19.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. ​ Defined Benefit Plan ​ Eligible employees and former employees of certain of our mining operations participate in a defined benefit plan (the “Pension Plan”) that we sponsor. The Pension Plan is closed to new applicants. Participants in the Pension Plan are no longer receiving benefit accruals for service. The benefit formula for the Pension Plan is a fixed-dollar unit based on years of service. ​ The following sets forth changes in benefit obligations and plan assets for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the funded status of the Pension Plan reconciled with the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements: ​

Expected return on plan assets | ​ |  | 7.50% | ​ |  | 7.00% | ​
​ The actuarial gain component of the change in benefit obligations in 2024 was primarily attributable to an increase in the discount rate compared to the prior year end. The actuarial loss component of the change in benefit obligations in 2023 was primarily attributable to a decrease in the discount rate compared to the prior year end. ​ The expected long-term rate of return used to determine our pension liability is based on an asset allocation assumption of: ​

​ We do not expect to make material contributions to the Pension Plan during 2025. ​ The Compensation Committee has appointed an investment manager with full investment authority with respect to Pension Plan investments subject to investment guidelines and compliance with Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 or other applicable laws. The investment manager employs an asset allocation strategy through investment in certain investment types such as equity securities and fixed income securities. The asset allocation process provides that the total portfolio allocation will be adjusted as the funded ratio of the plan changes and market conditions warrant, consistent with managing risks in accordance with plan objectives and time horizon. As the funded ratio improves, more assets may be allocated to the core fixed income portfolio to reduce volatility. The objective of the allocation policy is to achieve an average annual return greater than the actuarial discount rate over the specified time horizon. General asset allocation guidelines at December 31, 2024 are as follows: ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Percentage of Total Portfolio |
​ |  | Minimum |  | Maximum |
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Equity securities | ​ | 50% | ​ | 85% | ​
Fixed income securities | ​ | 15% | ​ | 50% | ​
​ Equity securities include domestic and international common stocks, convertible notes and bonds, convertible preferred stocks, American Depository Receipts of non-U.S. companies and Real Estate Investment Trusts. Fixed income securities include debt securities issued by the federal government as well as state and local governments, banker’s acceptances, repurchase agreements, asset-backed securities, collateralized mortgage-backed securities, corporate debt securities, inflation-index bonds and structured notes. ​ The following information discloses the fair values of our Pension Plan assets by asset category: ​

(a) | Equity investments - Individual securities include investments in publicly traded common stock and American Depository Receipts. Publicly traded common stocks are traded on a national securities exchange and investments in common stocks are valued using quoted market prices multiplied by the number of shares owned. American Depository Receipts are negotiable securities issued by a bank representing shares in a foreign company and traded on a national securities exchange.
(b) | Fixed income - investments include investments in preferred stock, mutual funds and exchange traded funds that are traded on a national securities exchange and valued using quoted market prices multiplied by the number of shares owned.
(c) | Equity investments - Mutual funds are valued daily in actively traded markets. For purposes of calculating the value, portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are valued at market value.
| Investments initially valued in currencies other than the U.S. dollars are converted to the U.S. dollar using exchange rates obtained from pricing services.
(d) | Equity investments – Exchange traded funds are funds that own financial assets and trade on exchanges, generally tracking a specific index. Investments in exchange traded funds are valued using a market approach based on the quoted market prices.
(e) | Accrued income represents dividends or interest declared, but not received, on equity securities owned at December 31, 2024.
(f) | Investments measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) have not been classified within the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of all commingled investment funds are determined based on the net asset values per unit of each of the funds. The net asset values per unit represent the aggregate value of the fund’s assets at fair value less liabilities, divided by the number of units outstanding.
