Barrick Resources was founded in 1983 by Canadian businessman and entrepreneur Peter Munk. The early years were marked by acquisitions and partnerships, which helped establish Barrick as a significant player in the global mining industry. In the 1990s, Barrick expanded its operations internationally, acquiring mines and exploration projects in South America, Africa, and Australia. During this time, the company made several significant technological advances, including developing the Autoclave pressure oxidation process and improving gold recovery rates from refractory ores. In the early 2000s, Barrick continued to grow through a series of strategic acquisitions, including the purchase of Homestake Mining Company and Placer Dome.
These acquisitions significantly expanded the company's portfolio and established it as the world's largest gold mining company. In recent years, Barrick has focused on optimizing its existing assets and improving its operational efficiency while investing in new exploration projects to ensure a sustainable future for the company. Today, Barrick is a global mining leader with a strong focus on responsible and sustainable practices and a commitment to delivering value to all its stakeholders.
