Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE:GOLD)(TSX:ABX) grew attributable
proven and probable gold mineral reserves by 17.4 million ounces4
(23%) before 2024 depletion. Attributable proven and probable
mineral reserves now stand at 89 million ounces at 0.99g/t2,
increasing from 77 million ounces at 1.65g/t3 in 2023. The
year-on-year change was led by the conversion of Reko Diq
copper-gold resources to mineral reserves, adding 13 million ounces
of gold at 0.28g/t2 on an attributable basis, following the
completion of the feasibility study. Significantly, before the
addition of Reko Diq, Barrick delivered a fourth consecutive year
of replacing annual depletion at a 4% higher grade, continuing to
demonstrate the results of an unremitting focus on asset quality
and further extending the life of our existing operations.
Since the end of 2019, Barrick has replaced more
than 180%4 of the company’s depleted gold reserves, adding almost
46 million ounces4 of attributable proven and probable reserves (77
million ounces4 of proven and probable reserves on a 100% basis)
across Barrick-managed assets.
Attributable measured and indicated gold resources
for 2024 remain consistent, at 180 million ounces at 1.06g/t2,
with a further 41 million ounces at 0.9g/t2 of inferred
resources, up 5% from 2023.
At the same time, copper mineral reserves grew by
224% year-on-year on an attributable basis, at more than 13% higher
grade to 18 million tonnes of copper at 0.45%2, from 5.6 million
tonnes of copper at 0.39% in 20233. This resulted from the
completion of the Lumwana and Reko Diq feasibility studies
affirming both as Tier One6 Copper projects. The Lumwana Super Pit
Expansion feasibility study added 5.5 million tonnes of copper
reserves to the project, resulting in proven and probable copper
reserves of 8.3 million tonnes of copper at 0.52%2. The Reko Diq
feasibility study added 7.3 million tonnes of copper at 0.48% to
attributable copper reserves. This represents an addition of more
than 20 million tonnes2 of proven and probable copper reserves on a
100% basis since 2023.
Attributable measured and indicated copper
resources for 2024 stand at 24 million tonnes of copper at 0.39%2,
with a further 3.9 million tonnes of copper at 0.3%2 of inferred
resources, reflecting the conversion and upgrade of copper mineral
resources at Lumwana.
For 2024, mineral reserves are based on an updated
gold price assumption of $1,400/oz1 and a consistent copper price
of $3.00/lb1. Mineral resources are reported inclusive of reserves
and for 2024 are based on an updated gold price of $1,900/oz1 and a
consistent copper price of $4.00/lb1.
President and chief executive Mark Bristow said
Barrick’s strategy of investing in organic growth through
exploration and mineral resource management has set the company
apart from its peers within the industry, positioning Barrick as a
champion for value creation as we continue to grow our production
profile organically.
“In order for our industry to help build a better
world, we have to invest in our own future, with transformational
projects like the Lumwana Super Pit Expansion, Pueblo Viejo
Expansion, Reko Diq and Fourmile. Barrick’s vision for these
projects extends beyond mining, ensuring the benefits of these
investments provide multi-generational benefits to our host
countries and local communities through the development of local
service provider partnerships and investment in the sustainability
of our operating environments,” said Bristow.
Mineral Resource Management and Evaluation
Executive Simon Bottoms said that since the end of 2019, Barrick
has successfully added 111 million ounces4 of attributable gold
equivalent reserves at a cost of approximately $10 per ounce5,
demonstrating the value proposition of our strategy.
“The company's reserve prices of $1,400/oz for
gold1 and $3.00/lb for copper1 are designed to extract the optimum
value from our geologically defined orebodies whilst delivering the
highest value, demonstrating the quality differentiation of our
Tier One6 assets. This approach is complemented by our reserve
replacement strategy, where we aim to add value by delineating ore
body extensions and satellites at our long-term reserve prices
rather than diluting the quality of our reserves through lifting
reserve prices beyond the relative levels of cost inflation,” said
Bottoms.
Gold mineral reserves in the Africa & Middle
East region, after annual depletion, grew to 19 million ounces
at 3.35g/t2 in 2024 from 18.8 million ounces at 3.24g/t3 in
2023. This was predominantly driven by both Bulyanhulu and
Loulo-Gounkoto, with extensions of the high-grade Reef 2 and Yalea
underground orebodies respectively, combined with growth of the
Faraba open pit. Overall, this delivered a 2.3 million ounce2
increase in attributable proven and probable reserves across the
region, before depletion. North Mara also contributed to the strong
results through the extension of the Gokona underground and Gena
open pit. At Kibali, the ongoing conversion drilling in the 9000
and 11000 lodes in KCD underground replaced 98% of depletion, with
ongoing development to establish further underground drill
platforms for 2025.
The Latin America & Asia Pacific region, led by
Pueblo Viejo, replaced 115% of the regional 2024 gold reserve
depletion before the addition of Reko Diq, which added 0.78 million
ounces2 to attributable proven and probable reserves before
depletion as a result of additional pit design pushbacks unlocked
by the additional TSF capacity in the new Naranjo facility. Porgera
grew attributable gold reserves by 22% year-on-year with the
successful conversion of the open pit Link cutback adjacent to the
West Wall cutback.
In North America, the ongoing growth programs at
Turquoise Ridge, Leeville Underground in Carlin and the Reona
cut-back in Phoenix, added 1.54 million ounces2 of gold to proven
and probable reserves on an attributable basis before annual
depletion, which were partially offset by reductions in Cortez
driven by metallurgical model updates in Crossroads and Robertson.
This resulted in attributable proven and probable mineral reserves
for the region of 30 million ounces at 2.71g/t2, representing a
more than 10% increase in the grade year-over-year (2.45g/t in
2023) as a result of the high-grade growth additions and reductions
of low-grade at Cortez. At the same time, attributable gold
measured and indicated mineral resources for the region now stands
at 66 million ounces at 2.18g/t2, due to the removal of Long Canyon
mineral resources, as the site is planned to progress into full
closure during 2025. Meanwhile, attributable inferred gold mineral
resources for the region grew to 21 million ounces at 3.3 g/t2,
driven by Fourmile’s mineral resource7 growth in the southernmost
portion of the orebody immediately adjacent to the existing
Goldrush mine. Looking forward to 2025, Barrick plans to commence
prefeasibility-study drilling at the end of the first quarter of
2025 which will target continued extension of the Fourmile mineral
resource along strike to the north, while also completing the
foundational studies for the planned Bullion Hill northern access
portal.

Mineral Reserves and Resources
Endnotes
- Mineral reserves
(“reserves”) and mineral resources (“resources”) have been
estimated as at December 31, 2024 (unless otherwise noted) in
accordance with National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of
Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) as required by
Canadian securities regulatory authorities. For United States
reporting purposes, the SEC has adopted amendments to its
disclosure rules to modernize the mineral property disclosure
requirements for issuers whose securities are registered with the
SEC under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”). These amendments became effective February 25,
2019 (the “SEC Modernization Rules”) with compliance required for
the first fiscal year beginning on or after January 1, 2021. The
SEC Modernization Rules replace the historical property disclosure
requirements for mining registrants that were included in SEC
Industry Guide 7, which was rescinded from and after the required
compliance date of the SEC Modernization Rules. As a result of the
adoption of the SEC Modernization Rules, the SEC now recognizes
estimates of “measured”, “indicated” and “inferred” mineral
resources. In addition, the SEC has amended its definitions of
“proven mineral reserves” and “probable mineral reserves” to be
substantially similar to the corresponding Canadian Institute of
Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum definitions, as required by NI
43-101. U.S. investors should understand that “inferred” mineral
resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence
and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility.
In addition, U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any
part or all of Barrick’s mineral resources constitute or will be
converted into reserves. Mineral resource and mineral reserve
estimations have been prepared by employees of Barrick, its joint
venture partners or its joint venture operating companies, as
applicable, under the supervision of Craig Fiddes, SME-RM, Lead,
Resource Modeling, Nevada Gold Mines; Richard Peattie, MPhil,
FAusIMM, Mineral Resources Manager: Africa and Middle East; Peter
Jones, MAIG, Manager Resource Geology – Latin America & Asia
Pacific; Simon Bottoms, CGeol, MGeol, FGS, FAusIMM, Mineral
Resource Management and Evaluation Executive. For 2024, reserves
have been estimated based on an assumed gold price of US$1,400 per
ounce, an assumed silver price of US$20.00 per ounce, and an
assumed copper price of US$3.00 per pound and long-term average
exchange rates of 1.30 CAD/US$, except at Tongon, and Hemlo open
pit, both where mineral reserves for 2024 were estimated using
$1,650/oz; at Zaldívar, where mineral reserves for 2024 were
calculated using Antofagasta guidance and an updated assumed copper
price of US$3.80 per pound and at Norte Abierto where mineral
reserves are reported by Newmont within a $1,200/oz, $2.75/lb
copper and $22/oz Ag pit design, before application of updated 2023
project economics using escalated operating and capital costs
resulting in Newmont guidance of $1,600/oz gold, $4.00/lb copper
and $23/oz silver for assumed mineral reserve commodity prices. For
2023, reserves have been estimated based on an assumed gold price
of US$1,300 per ounce, an assumed silver price of US$18.00 per
ounce, and an assumed copper price of US$3.00 per pound and
long-term average exchange rates of 1.30 CAD/US$, except at Tongon,
where mineral reserves for 2023 were calculated using $1,500/oz;
Hemlo, where mineral reserves for 2023 were calculated using
$1,400/oz and at Zaldívar, where mineral reserves for 2023 were
calculated using Antofagasta guidance and an updated assumed copper
price of US$3.50 per pound. Reserve estimates incorporate current
and/or expected mine plans and cost levels at each property.
Varying cut-off grades have been used depending on the mine and
type of ore contained in the reserves. Barrick’s normal data
verification procedures have been employed in connection with the
calculations. Verification procedures include industry-standard
quality control practices. Resources as at December 31, 2024
have been estimated using varying cut-off grades,
depending on both the type of mine or project, its maturity and ore
types at each property.
- In confirming
our annual reserves for each of our mineral properties, projects,
and operations, we conduct a reserve test on December 31 of each
year to verify that the future undiscounted cash flow from reserves
is positive. The cash flow ignores all sunk costs and only
considers future operating and closure expenses as well as any
future capital costs.
- All mineral
resource and mineral reserve estimates of tonnes, Au oz, Ag oz and
Cu tonnes are reported to the second significant digit.
- Mineral
resources and mineral reserves for the Loulo-Gounkoto Complex have
been estimated under the 1991 Malian Mining Code and the Loulo and
Gounkoto Mining Conventions under which the Complex has operated to
date. Any update to applicable terms as a result of ongoing
engagements with the Government of Mali will be incorporated after
a definitive agreement is reached.
- 2024
polymetallic mineral resources and mineral reserves are estimated
using the combined value of gold, copper & silver and
accordingly are reported as gold, copper and silver mineral
resources and mineral reserves.
- For 2024,
mineral resources have been estimated based on an assumed gold
price of US$1,900 per ounce, an assumed silver price of US$24.00
per ounce, and an assumed copper price of US$4.00 per pound and
long-term average exchange rates of 1.30 CAD/US$, except Zaldívar,
where mineral resources for 2024 were estimated using Antofagasta
guidance and an assumed copper price of US$4.40 per pound and Norte
Abierto where mineral resources are reported by Newmont within a
$1,400/oz, $3.25/lb copper and $20/oz Ag pit shell, before
application of updated 2023 project economics using escalated
operating and capital costs resulting in Newmont guidance of
$1,600/oz gold, $4.00/lb copper and $23/oz silver for assumed
mineral resource commodity price. For 2023, mineral resources were
estimated based on an assumed gold price of US$1,700 per ounce, an
assumed silver price of US$21.00 per ounce, and an assumed copper
price of US$4.00 per pound and long-term average exchange rates of
1.30 CAD/US$, except at Zaldívar, where mineral resources for 2023
were calculated using Antofagasta guidance and an assumed copper
price of US$4.20.
- Mineral
resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated
economic viability.
- Mineral
resources are reported inclusive of mineral reserves.
- All measured and
indicated mineral resource estimates of grade and all proven and
probable mineral reserve estimates of grade for Au g/t, Ag g/t and
Cu % are reported to two decimal places.
- All inferred
mineral resource estimates of grade for Au g/t, Ag g/t and Cu % are
reported to one decimal place.
