Barrick released its 2024 reserve and resource statement. Attributable gold reserves are 89 million ounces at 0.99 g/t, up from 77 million ounces at 1.65 g/t in 2023, led by 13 million ounces added at Reko Diq after its feasibility study was completed. Copper reserves rose to 18 million tonnes at 0.45% from 5.6 million tonnes, with the Lumwana Super Pit feasibility study adding 5.5 million tonnes and Reko Diq adding 7.3 million tonnes. This resolves the end-2024 Reko Diq and Lumwana feasibility study threads. The company says that before Reko Diq it replaced annual depletion for a fourth year running at a 4% higher grade. Measured and indicated gold resources stay at 180 million ounces, with inferred up to 41 million ounces. The release also says Long Canyon resources were removed because the site is planned to move into full closure during 2025, and that Barrick plans prefeasibility-study drilling at Fourmile from the end of Q1 2025.

Copper reserves are 5.6 million tonnes at 0.39%, with Lumwana drilling adding 330 thousand tonnes. Measured and indicated gold resources are flat at 180 million ounces, inferred is 39 million ounces (down from 42), and the company says Reko Diq and the Lumwana Super Pit feasibility studies are on track for completion by end of 2024. A table in the release records a 2.2 million ounce reserve reduction in 2020 from the divestiture of Massawa effective March 4, 2020, which resolves the open Massawa development thread as a sale.

Copper reserves are held at 12 billion pounds at 0.38%, and measured and indicated gold resources rose to 180 million ounces and copper resources to 44 billion pounds, helped by Reko Diq being brought back in after its reconstitution in December 2022 and a Lumwana Super Pit preliminary economic assessment. This continues the 2021 reserve growth and adds Reko Diq and the Lumwana expansion as new threads.

It continues the Nevada Gold Mines story and also shows that Lagunas Norte and Porgera have changed in the portfolio since the earlier context.
