Overview
The Porgera mine was placed on care and maintenance in April 2020. On December 22, 2023, the Porgera Project Commencement Agreement was formally completed, and the mine officially reopened. Mining and processing restarted at Porgera in January and February 2024, respectively. New Porgera Limited has been appointed as the operator of the Porgera mine. The new ownership structure gives PNG stakeholders a 51% share and Barrick Niugini Limited (a joint venture between Barrick Gold and Zijin Mining) a 49% share. Over the life of the mine, PNG stakeholders will receive 53% of Porgera's overall economic benefits, while Barrick and Zijin will receive 47%. For 2024, Barrick's attributable production from Porgera is forecast to be between 80,000 and 100,000 ounces of gold.

Production
Production overview - 2025: gold 20.930000000000003 t; 2022: gold 337000 oz.
Processing
The metallurgical plant has a twin-circuit sulphide and oxide plant with conventional carbon-in-leach (CIL), gravity recovery, and a float and ultra-fine grind circuit. The plant can process 7.2 million tonnes of ore per year. In 2025, the mine milled 8.322 Mt at a recovery of 90.31%. The operation is powered by three hydropower stations and a 16MW solar plant with battery storage, which increases the renewable energy use to 85%.
Equipment
The open pit contractors use SY500/350 excavators, Caterpillar D8R bulldozers, Sinotruck water bowers, and XCMG GR300 graders. For blasting, Pantera DP1500 I and Komatsu drill rigs are used.
Expansion
Drilling results from the ARK-KCD corridor have shown the potential for significant additional orebodies, which could extend the mine life. The life-of-mine plan extends to 2043.

Workforce
The total workforce was approximately 8,100 people in 2024, including 2,900 employees and 5,200 contractors. Previous workforce numbers were 6,909 in 2023 and 5,956 in 2022. In May 2026, a major contractor, Gounkoto Mining Services, was reportedly laying off over 600 workers.
Overview
The Loulo-Gounkoto complex is an active gold-producing operation in the Kayes Region of western Mali, near the border with Senegal. It comprises two integrated mining permits, Loulo and Gounkoto, and is owned by Barrick Gold Corporation (80%) and the State of Mali (20%) through Société des Mines de Loulo SA (SOMILO) and Société des Mines de Gounkoto SA. The complex combines open-pit mining at Gounkoto, Yalea South, Gara West, and Baboto pits, with underground mines at Yalea, Gara, and Gounkoto. The Loulo mining permit was renewed for a further 10 years in February 2026.
Production
Gold production was 723,000 ounces in 2024, 547,000 ounces in 2023, and 5.5 tonnes in 2025 due to an operational suspension. As of 31 December 2025, proven gold reserves were 1.8 million ounces from 15 million tonnes grading 3.77 g/t, and probable reserves were 5.0 million ounces from 36 million tonnes grading 4.32 g/t.
Processing
Ore from both the Loulo and Gounkoto sites is processed at a central plant located at Loulo, which uses a conventional crushing, milling, and Carbon-in-Leach (CIL) circuit. Its throughput capacity has reached a peak of 5.2 million tonnes per annum. Ore from Gounkoto is first crushed on-site before being transported approximately 30 km to the Loulo plant.
Equipment
The open-pit mining fleet includes Liebherr 9350 and 9250 excavators, Caterpillar 777D and HD785 dump trucks, and Caterpillar 992-wheel loaders, dozers, and graders. The underground fleet is equipped with development and production drills, trucks, and load-haul-dumps (LHDs), some with remote and automated capabilities.
Expansion
Expansion plans include increasing the processing plant's capacity to 6.2 million tonnes per annum, with construction scheduled to begin in 2027. A third underground mine at Gounkoto began producing ore in 2023. Future developments include commencing mining at the Loulo 3 open pit in 2027 and the Faraba open pit in 2029. The complex is also expanding its solar power and battery storage system to 60 MW.

Overview
The Connaught property is located approximately 65 kilometres west of Dawson City. Hecla Mining acquired the Connaught property as part of a larger land package from ATAC Resources in a transaction that closed in July 2023. The project has historically been explored as a high-grade silver-lead-zinc-copper-gold vein prospect. However, the focus has shifted to exploring for copper-molybdenum porphyry mineralisation. A 2022 government report noted that ATAC had re-envisioned the project as a porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum target.
