Turquoise Ridge JV Property
Owners: Barrick (75%), Newmont (25%)

The Turquoise Ridge property is located in the Potosi Mining District, about 70 kilometers northeast of Winnemucca, Nevada, on the eastern flank of the Osgood Mountains. Barrick is the operator and 75% owner of the mine with Newmont owning the remaining 25%.
 
Turquoise Ridge uses underhand cut-and-fill mining methods and ore is transported to Newmont’s Twin Creeks mill for processing. The refractory gold ore is treated by pressure oxidation technology and gold is recovered using conventional carbon-in-leach technology.
 
In the first nine months of 2013, Barrick’s share of production was 114,000 ounces of gold at all-in sustaining costs of $1,064 per ounce1. Barrick’s share of proven and probable mineral reserves as at December 31, 2012, was 5.8 million ounces of gold.
