Barrick Gold

NASDAQ

Based in Toronto, Barrick Gold is one of the world's largest gold miners. In 2023, the firm produced nearly 4.1 million attributable ounces of gold and about 420 million pounds of copper. At year-end 2023, Barrick had about two decades of gold reserves along with significant copper reserves. After buying Randgold in 2019 and combining its Nevada mines in a joint venture with competitor Newmont later that year, it operates mines in 19 countries in the Americas, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. The company also has growing copper exposure. Its potential Reko Diq project in Pakistan, if developed, could double copper production by the end of the decade.

Shares of precious metals stocks are trading higher as gold and silver rise on US-China trade war concerns and a drop in the US dollar index.

SBSW

SSRM

Shares of precious metal-related companies are trading higher. Reserve assets may be seeing renewed strength after the Fed kept rates unchanged yesterday and noted that inflation remains somewhat elevated.

Shares of gold stocks are trading higher amid a rise in the price of gold.

Ahead of their earnings release, BofA Securities analyst Lawson Winder upgraded Kinross Gold Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KGC#NYSE">KGC</a>) and downgraded Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLD#NYSE">GOLD</a>).
Talking about market, the analyst says that Gold opened at $2,706/oz last week, rising to $2,746/oz on January 21, 2025, as the U.S. Dollar weakened.
It closed the week at $2,771/oz, up 2.5%, on President Trump&#8217;s remarks on a less aggressive tariff approach to China.
KGC: The analyst double-upgraded Kinross from Underperform to Buy and raised the price <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/kgc/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">forecast from $9.25 to $12.75</a>.
The analyst notes several concerns surrounding Kinross, such as shorter mine life, maintaining 2 million gold equivalent ounces (GEOs) of annual production, and unit costs, are being addressed.
Consequently, the analyst raised the 2026 GEO production forecast from 1.8 million to 2 million GEO and increased earnings per share (EPS) estimates from $0.64 to $0.78 for 2026.
Despite market concerns about potential corporate acquisitions, Kinross remains disciplined in this regard, adds the analyst.
Additionally, Winder sees potential for Kinross to boost capital returns in 2025 through a share buyback. Overall, the analyst says that the company is well-positioned for fourth-quarter results with potential catalysts in 2025.
GOLD: The analyst downgraded the stock from Buy to Neutral and cut the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/gold/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price forecast from $21 to $18</a>.
The analyst writes that as approaching fourth-quarter results, risks are rising, particularly regarding the shutdown of the Loulo-Gounkoto mine in Mali, and the struggling ramp-up of the Pueblo Viejo mine in the Dominican Republic.
In their 2025 model, Winder removed any production from the Loulo-Gounkoto mine due to its suspension amid a tax dispute with the Malian military government.
The analyst says that he sees two possible outcomes: the first, a less favorable tax and royalty agreement allowing continued operation; the second, a complete loss of operations if the government seizes control.
The analyst assumes the mine to restart in late 2025, ramping up to full production in 2026, but under less favorable terms for Barrick Gold.
Consequently, the analyst lowered 2025 estimates for EPS to $1.55 from $1.91 and 2026 EPS to $1.81 from $1.92.
Both Kinross and Barrick Gold will release their fourth-quarter results on <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">Wednesday, February 12, 2025</a>.
Price Action: KGC shares are down 0.89% at $10.60, while GOLD shares are down 1.18% at $15.94 at the last check Monday.

The Lumwana expansion will double its current copper production to a life-of-mine average of 240kt a year with an additional 2,500 construction workers to be employed over the construction period through to 2028.1 In addition to this, the expansion is set to create a further 550 permanent roles. To meet these demands, Lumwana is extending its Technical Education, Vocational and Entrepreneurship Training Authority (TEVETA) accredited training centre to equip local workers with critical skills. Currently, 99% of Lumwana's employees are Zambian nationals, a testament to Barrick's focus on sustainable workforce development.

Scotiabank analyst Tanya Jakusconek downgrades Barrick Gold (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLD#NYSE">GOLD</a>) from Sector Outperform to Sector Perform and lowers the price target from $23 to $19.

Barrick Gold (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLD#NYSE">GOLD</a>) is reshaping its portfolio in 2025, looking to prioritize high-value, large-scale projects. Although this strategy reminds of its main competitor, Newmont, which prioritizes Tier 1 assets, Barrick still aims to profit from <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/copper" rel="noreferrer noopener">copper tailwinds</a>, finding growth outside its core commodity.
As part of this strategy, the company is considering divesting its 50% stake in the Zaldivar copper mine in Chile, co-owned with Antofagasta. Zaldivar produced 80,000 tons of copper in 2024, but its relatively small scale and significant future investment requirements have prompted Barrick to explore potential buyers.
At the moment, Barrick's efforts focus on the Reko Diq copper and gold project in Pakistan, one of the largest undeveloped copper-gold resources globally. CEO Mark Bristow highlighted the opportunity in a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjPKJix0KPQ" rel="noreferrer noopener">recent interview</a> for the regional media outlet Dawn.
"It couldn't be better positioned as timing goes, as quality goes. All our test work shows it is probably going to be right up there in quality of concentrate among the best copper mines in the world, "he said.
Reko Diq could generate around $74 billion in free cash flow over 37 years, with reserves extending beyond 50 years through planned expansions. The first phase of the project, involving an investment of $5.5 billion, is projected to produce 200,000 tons of copper concentrate and 250,000 ounces of gold annually starting in 2029.
A second phase, requiring an additional $3.5 billion, aims to double output to 400,000 tons of copper and 500,000 ounces of gold annually.
The project has attracted significant <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/04/38336936/saudi-arabia-near-deal-for-stake-in-gold-copper-mine-project-in-pakistans-troubled-province" rel="noreferrer noopener">interest from global investors</a>, notably Saudi Arabia's Manara Minerals, a joint venture between the state-owned mining company Ma'aden and the Public Investment Fund. Discussions between Manara and the Pakistani government are ongoing, with Saudi officials wanting to invest within the next two quarters. While Barrick is open to collaboration, the company has clarified that it will not dilute its equity in the project.
Reko Diq is strategically important due to its rich copper deposits and potential to supply critical metals for the global shift toward electrification and renewable energy.
However, operating in Balochistan presents challenges. The region is known for political instability, underdeveloped infrastructure, and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41311099/terrorism-in-pakistan-threatens-foreign-mine-development-saudi-arabia-still-invests-billions" rel="noreferrer noopener">security risks</a>, which could complicate project execution and deter foreign investment.
Despite the hurdles, Bristow remains optimistic about the project.
"If we prove that we can do it, which I have no doubt that we'll definitely do, that'll attract some of the big copper players to Pakistan, and that's why I refer to it as the new frontier of mining, "he noted.

Barrick Looks Into Portfolio Optimization, Sees Pakistan As 'The New Frontier'

Barrick Gold Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLD#NYSE">GOLD</a>) shares are trading higher by 1.2% to $15.95 during Friday&#8217;s session. Shares of stocks in the broader metals and mining sector are trading higher in possible sympathy with Rio Tinto and Glencore who announced discussions regarding a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43040137/rio-tinto-and-glencore-weigh-historic-merger-shaking-up-global-mining">potential merger</a>.
What To Know: As a leading gold mining company, Barrick Gold specializes in the production of gold and copper, with a focus on maintaining low-cost operations and significant reserves in politically stable regions.

If a Rio Tinto-Glencore <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-16/rio-tinto-glencore-are-said-to-discuss-potential-combination?srnd=homepage-americas">merger materializes</a>, it would create a mining juggernaut with massive operational reach across multiple commodities. This could trigger heightened competition for mining assets and push other companies, including Barrick Gold, to secure their positions in the industry.
Investors may anticipate that Barrick, with its disciplined financial approach and robust resource base, could emerge as an attractive partner for strategic alliances or acquisitions to counterbalance this consolidation.
Additionally, such a merger could create volatility in commodity markets, indirectly benefiting gold as a hedge asset.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy GOLD Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Barrick Gold &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so.
In the case of Barrick Gold, which is trading at $15.96 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 6.27 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, GOLD has a 52-week high of $21.35 and a 52-week low of $13.76.

Shares of stocks in the broader metals and mining sector are trading higher in possible sympathy with Rio Tinto and Glencore who announced discussions regarding a potential merger, the largest in mining industry history.

Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLD#NYSE">GOLD</a>)(TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ABX#TSX">ABX</a>) today confirmed that the company remains restricted from shipping gold from the Loulo-Gounkoto mining complex in Mali. Additionally, the interim attachment order on the gold has now been executed by the Malian government by moving the existing gold stock from the site to a custodial bank, further preventing the shipment and sale of the gold.
As a result, Barrick has regrettably initiated the temporary suspension of operations while it continues to work towards a resolution.
Barrick remains committed to constructive engagement with the Malian government and all stakeholders to find an amicable solution that ensures the long-term sustainability of the Loulo-Gounkoto mining complex and its vital contribution to Mali's economy and communities.

Barrick Gold Halts Operations at Mali Mine Amid Gold Shipment Restrictions by Government

Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLD#NYSE">GOLD</a>) has alerted shareholders about an unsolicited mini-tender offer from TRC Capital Investment. 
What Happened: The offer seeks to purchase up to 5 million of Barrick's common shares, representing about 0.29% of the outstanding shares of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/gold">second-largest gold miner</a>.
However, the firm made this offer well below the previous closing market price of CA$21.35 per share. The offer was at a discount of 4.52% to the closing price on the Toronto Stock Exchange and 4.38% to the closing price on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).
Barrick noted that it does not endorse the offer and recommends that shareholders refrain from tendering their shares. 
The company also clarified that shareholders who have already tendered their shares could withdraw them by Feb. 6 by following the procedures outlined in TRC Capital&#8217;s documents.
Mini-tender offers like this are designed to avoid regulatory thresholds that trigger disclosure requirements under Canadian and U.S. securities laws. Regulators, including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Canadian Securities Administrators, have raised concerns about mini-tender offers, noting that they are often priced below market value.
The SEC has <a href="https://www.sec.gov/divisions/marketreg/minitenders/sia072401.htm">previously warned</a> that some bidders use these offers to exploit shareholders who may not realize the offer price is significantly lower than the current market price.

Why It Matters: TRC Capital's timing coincides with Barrick's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/01/42823362/barrick-gold-warns-about-production-suspension-in-mali">issues in Mali</a>, where it operates the Loulo-Gounkoto mining complex. Reuters reported that the Malian government recently issued a provisional order to seize gold stocks at the site, with enforcement beginning on Jan. 11.
This dispute arises from Mali's government pushing to renegotiate mining contracts for a greater share of revenues amidst higher commodity prices. The broader trend in the region shows that military-led governments have sought to reassert control over natural resources.
Barrick has disclosed that around four metric tons of gold, worth approximately $380 million based on current prices, are at risk. Loulo-Gounkoto contributes around 14% of Barrick's total annual gold production, making it a critical asset for the company.
Price Watch: Barrick closed the trading session down 1.72% at $15.45 on the NYSE.

Barrick Warns About Unsolicited Mini Tender Offer As It Faces Malian Crisis

<a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/mali-started-flying-gold-stocks-out-barrick-site-saturday-sources-say-2025-01-13/">https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/mali-started-flying-gold-stocks-out-barrick-site-saturday-sources-say-2025-01-13/</a>
Mali began flying gold out of Canadian miner Barrick Gold's <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/companies/ABX.TO">(ABX.TO), opens new tab</a> Loulo-Gounkoto complex by helicopter on Saturday, four sources close to the situation said, after the military-led government last week <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/barrick-faces-fresh-restrictions-mali-signals-temporary-suspension-coming-weeks-2025-01-06/">ordered</a> the seizure of the stock.
Around three metric tons had been taken, two of the sources told Reuters on Monday, with one putting the value of the gold at $245 million. It was not clear where the gold was taken.
One source said eyewitnesses at the scene had described gold being shipped in two separate helicopter loads. The second source said the seizure was part of the confiscation order that a judge had issued last week.
Barrick has been in a dispute with Mali's government since 2023 over a contract based on new mining rules. The row has escalated several times, with Mali detaining senior executives and issuing an <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/mali-issues-arrest-warrant-barrick-gold-ceo-document-shows-2024-12-05/">arrest warrant</a> for Barrick CEO Mark Bristow.
Military governments in Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger are all seeking to renegotiate terms to gain a bigger share of mining revenue at a time when gold prices have hit record highs.
Neither Barrick nor the Malian authorities immediately responded to requests for comment.
Barrick said in a note to Malian staff on Sunday that the government had begun <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/mali-begins-enforcing-gold-seizure-order-barrick-site-company-memo-shows-2025-01-13/">enforcing an order</a> to seize the gold, and warned again that it may have to suspend operations at the complex over the long-running dispute.
Jefferies analysts have estimated that suspending production at the mine could cut Barrick's earnings before interest, tax, and amortization by 11% in 2025.
Mali has previously demanded about $500 million in unpaid taxes from Barrick, sources told Reuters. Barrick denies any wrongdoing. The company's quarterly earnings report says it did pay $85 million to the Malian government in October.
Barrick warned last month of a significant deterioration of conditions at Loulo-Gounkoto, with employees detained without cause and shipments of bullion blocked. The company owns 80% of the mining complex, with the Mali government owning 20%.

<h3>About Barrick Gold</h3>
Based in Toronto, Barrick Gold is one of the world's largest gold miners. In 2023, the firm produced nearly 4.1 million attributable ounces of gold and about 420 million pounds of copper. At year-end 2023, Barrick had about two decades of gold reserves along with significant copper reserves. After buying Randgold in 2019 and combining its Nevada mines in a joint venture with competitor Newmont later that year, it operates mines in 19 countries in the Americas, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. The company also has growing copper exposure. Its potential Reko Diq project in Pakistan, if developed, could double copper production by the end of the decade.
