Company Report

Despite Higher Gold Prices, Barrick Gold Shares Remain Undervalued

Barrick Gold is the world’s second-largest gold miner by production, operating mines in 19 countries in the Americas, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. Its large portfolio is a result of the 2019 acquisition of Randgold and the combination of its crown jewel Nevada assets with Newmont in a joint venture called Nevada Gold Mines that same year. With Barrick the operator and owning 61.5% of the partnership, NGM has been able to reduce costs thanks to the proximity of mines owned by the joint venture.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Company Profile

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.
