Barrick Gold CEO Mark Bristow on unlocking the tremendous potential of Donlin Gold
"Donlin has been a great journey for me personally, because the whole foundation of
how I look at value is built on ore bodies, as a miner, that prescribes the revenue. You
can't put gold in the ground, it's only God who does that. (...) Donlin is a massive
resource and what we set out to do after the merger with Randgold is to work with
NOVAGOLD to understand the ore body and decide on the maximum revenue
stream...We have shared with the market how we have progressed and now rather
than having a statistical gross estimate, we are starting to put the gold into proper
geological unit so we can determine the size, the mining equipment, simulate the
mining rate, and what we can do realistically. And we now have already started the
summer drilling program and we believe that it takes us to a point where we can then
plot the next steps in the Donlin progress. It's a huge resource, well north of 30 million
ounces. "1, 2
