Barrick Gold Corporation said it plans to change its name to Barrick Mining Corporation subject to shareholder approval at its upcoming annual and special meeting of shareholders on May 6, 2025.

“Barrick’s vision is to be the world’s most valued gold and copper exploration, development, and mining company. Along with our world-class portfolio of six tier one gold mines, we are building a substantial copper business which will be a meaningful contributor to growing our production volumes in the coming years and beyond,” said Barrick President and Chief Executive Mark Bristow.

“Barrick Mining Corporation and our new stock symbol, ‘B’, better reflect Barrick’s current business and our mission to achieve sustainable and profitable gold and copper growth.  Gold remains core to our foundation and we will continue to explore for and develop new gold mines, including the expansion of Pueblo Viejo, the exciting Fourmile gold project in Nevada, and exemplified by the Reko Diq project with its world class mix of both copper and gold,” added Bristow.

Barrick Gold engages in the exploration, mine development, production, and sale of gold and copper properties. It has ownership interests in producing gold mines that are located in Argentina, Canada, Côte d’Ivoire, the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Dominican Republic, Mali, Tanzania, and the United States. The company also has ownership interests in producing copper mines located in Chile, Saudi Arabia, Zambia, and various other projects located throughout the Americas, Asia, and Africa. Barrick Gold Corporation was founded in 1983 and is headquartered in Toronto, Canada.
