“The disciplined capital allocation framework that we adopted in mid-2012 has been at the core of every decision we’ve made in the last year and half, and has put us in a much stronger position to deal with the challenging gold price environment our industry is facing today. Under a comprehensive plan to strengthen the company, we have become a leaner, more agile organization, better protected against further downside price risk and well positioned to take advantage of attractive investment opportunities going forward,” said Jamie Sokalsky, Barrick’s President and CEO. “We have increased our focus on free cash flow and risk-adjusted returns, and successfully executed on our key priorities, which include operational excellence, a stronger balance sheet and the ongoing optimization of our asset portfolio. This required decisive action, including the temporary suspension of Pascua-Lama, and an even greater focus on generating higher returns even if that means producing fewer ounces. These were the right decisions for our shareholders and for the company, and we are now seeing the tangible benefits of our efforts.”
BARRICK FOURTH QUARTER AND YEAR-END 2013 1 PRESS RELEASE
Operational Excellence is a Top Priority
- Met improved gold and copper operating guidance for 2013
- Maintained the lowest all-in sustaining costs (AISC)1 of our peer group in 2013 and expect to retain this position in 2014
- Significantly improved Lumwana’s performance in 2013 and expect to reduce costs further in 2014
- Five core mines met expectations in 2013, producing about 4.0 million ounces or 55 percent of total production at AISC of $668 per ounce; these mines are expected to produce about 60 percent of total production in 2014 at AISC of $750-$800 per ounce
- Implemented a flatter, more streamlined organizational model that supports operational excellence; appointed Jim Gowans as Chief Operating Officer in December 2013, an experienced executive who brings four decades of global mining operations experience to Barrick
- Reduced 2013 general and administrative costs
- Targeting $500 million in annual cost savings from the new operating model, reduced procurement costs and other initiatives
Strengthened Balance Sheet and Financial Flexibility Termed out $3.0 billion in debt in the second quarter of 2013
- Reduced 2013 capital and operating costs by about $2.0 billion
- Improved near-term cash flow through temporary suspension of Pascua-Lama
- Raised $3.0 billion in a bought equity deal in the fourth quarter of 2013 to repay debt, reducing maturities over the next four years to $1.0 billion
Continued Progress on Portfolio Optimization
- In the last six months, announced agreements to divest Barrick Energy, six high-cost, non-core mines and other assets for a total consideration of almost $1.0 billion
- Completed mine plans and reserve estimates using a conservative gold price assumption of $1,100 per ounce in order to prioritize profitable production and returns, while retaining the option to access the metal in the future when prices and returns improve
“2013 was a tough year for Barrick by any measure, but with a renewed focus on capital discipline and operational excellence across the board, we have reset our focus and revitalized the company’s prospects,” Mr. Sokalsky said. “We will not veer from this course, which has delivered solid results, reduced costs and improved financial flexibility.”
FINANCIAL DISCUSSION
Fourth quarter 2013 adjusted net earnings were $0.41 billion ($0.37 per share)1 compared to $1.16 billion ($1.16 per share) in the prior-year period. The decrease reflects lower realized gold and copper prices

and a decline in gold and copper sales volumes. The net loss for the fourth quarter was $2.83 billion ($2.61 per share) compared to a net loss of $3.01 billion ($3.01 per share) in the prior-year quarter. Significant adjusting items for the quarter include:
- $2.82 billion in impairment charges, primarily related to Pascua-Lama, Porgera, Veladero and the Australia Pacific gold segment; and
- $176 million in suspension-related costs at Pascua-Lama.
The company recorded an impairment charge for the Pascua-Lama project of $896 million2 due to the decision to temporarily suspend construction in the fourth quarter. At the Porgera mine, the company recorded an impairment charge of $595 million based on changes to the mine plan to focus primarily on higher grade underground ore. As a result, Porgera’s estimated mine life has decreased from 13 years to nine years. Lower gold price assumptions and the impact of sustained inflationary pressures on operating and capital costs led to a reduction of reserves and life-of-mine production at the Veladero mine in Argentina, resulting in an impairment charge of $300 million. At Jabal Sayid, the annual update to the life-of-mine plan showed a decrease in net present value. In addition, the project’s fair value was impacted by a delay in first production. As a result, the company recorded an impairment charge of $303 million. As part of its annual goodwill impairment test, the company recognized a goodwill impairment charge of $551 million for its Australia Pacific gold segment, primarily related to the lower estimated fair value of Porgera.
Fourth quarter operating cash flow of $1.02 billion compares to $1.85 billion in the prior-year period. The decline reflects lower realized gold and copper prices and increased income tax payments. Adjusted operating cash flow of $1.09 billion3 compares to $1.93 billion in the prior-year period and removes the impact of foreign currency and commodity derivative contract settlements.
RESERVES AND RESOURCES
Barrick calculated its reserves for 2013 using a conservative gold price assumption of $1,100 per ounce, compared to $1,500 per ounce in 2012. While this is well below the company’s outlook for the gold price and below current spot prices, it reflects Barrick’s focus on producing profitable ounces with a solid rate of return and the ability to generate free cash flow. Gold reserves declined to 104.1 million ounces4 at the end of 2013 from 140.2 million ounces at the end of 2012. Excluding ounces mined and processed in 2013 and divestitures, all of these ounces have transferred to resources, preserving the option to access them in the future at higher gold prices.
2 $5.1 billion in after-tax impairment charges for Pascua-Lama were recorded in the second quarter of 2013, mainly driven by declining metal prices.
3 Adjusted operating cash flow is a non-GAAP financial performance measure. See pages 63-72 of Barrick’s Fourth Quarter 2013 Report.
4 Calculated in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 as required by Canadian securities regulatory authorities. For a breakdown, see pages 155-160 of Barrick’s Fourth Quarter 2013 Report.
BARRICK FOURTH QUARTER AND YEAR-END 2013 3 PRESS RELEASE
The 26 percent decline in reserves breaks down as follows (approximations):
Percentage
| 13 | - | conservative gold price assumption of $1,100 per ounce |
| 6 | - | ounces mined and processed in 2013 |
| 4 | - | ounces that are economic at $1,100 per ounce, but do not meet |
hurdle rates of return on invested capital
2 - ounces no longer economic due to increased costs
2 - divestitures of non-core, high-cost mines as part of the company’s portfolio optimization strategy
(1) - additions
Measured and indicated gold resources increased to 99.4 million ounces at the end of 2013 from 83.0 million ounces at the end of 2012. Resources were calculated based on a gold price assumption of $1,500 per ounce compared to $1,650 per ounce for 2012. Inferred gold resources decreased to 31.9 million ounces at the end of 2013 from 35.6 million ounces at the end of 2012.
Copper reserves increased slightly to 14.0 billion pounds based on a copper price assumption of $3.00 per pound. Measured and indicated copper resources decreased to 6.9 billion pounds from 10.3 billion pounds at the end of 2012 based on a copper price assumption of $3.50 per pound, primarily as a result of further optimization of the Lumwana mine plan. Inferred copper resources decreased to 0.2 billion pounds from 0.5 billion pounds at the end of 2012.
2014 OUTLOOK
Barrick’s 2014 gold cost guidance is the lowest among senior producers, with AISC expected to be $920-$980 per ounce and adjusted operating costs projected to be $590-$640 per ounce.
The company anticipates 2014 gold production of 6.0-6.5 million ounces. Lower production in 2014 reflects the company’s strategy to maximize free cash flow and returns over ounces, the divestment of high-cost, short-life mines, lower production from Cortez, and the decision to close Pierina. These declines will be partially offset by an increase in production at Pueblo Viejo.
BARRICK FOURTH QUARTER AND YEAR-END 2013 4 PRESS RELEASE
Detailed 2014 operating guidance, based on the company’s new operating model, and capital expenditure guidance is as follows:
GOLD PRODUCTION AND COSTS Production AISC Adj. Operating Costs (millions of ounces) ($ per ounce) ($ per ounce)

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES ($ millions)
Mine site sustaining 2,000-2,200 Mine site expansion 300-375 Projects 100-125 Total 2,400-2,700
Total capital expenditures are expected to decrease by approximately 50 percent in 2014 to $2.40- $2.70 billion, a reduction of approximately $2.5 billion compared to 2013. The lower expenditures reflect the temporary suspension of construction at Pascua-Lama and lower mine site sustaining and expansion capital requirements. The 2014 exploration budget of $200-$240 million7 remains focused on high quality, priority projects. About 50 percent of the budget is allocated to Nevada, the majority of which is targeted for the Goldrush project, where measured and indicated resources increased by 1.6 million ounces to 10.0 million ounces at the end of 2013. Inferred resources at Goldrush were 5.6 million ounces at the end of 2013.

BARRICK FOURTH QUARTER AND YEAR-END 2013 5 PRESS RELEASE
The company anticipates higher finance costs of $800-$825 million in 2014 as a result of the decision to temporarily suspend Pascua-Lama, where interest will no longer be capitalized.
Barrick’s effective income tax rate in 2014 is expected to be about 50 percent based on an average gold price of $1,300 per ounce. Please refer to the Management Discussion and Analysis for a full description of factors impacting the company’s 2014 income tax rate.
PASCUA-LAMA UPDATE
During the fourth quarter of 2013, Barrick announced the temporary suspension of construction at its Pascua-Lama project, except for those activities required for environmental and regulatory compliance. The ramp-down is on schedule for completion by mid-2014. The company expects to incur costs of about $300 million8 this year for the ramp-down and environmental and social obligations. A decision to restart development will depend on improved economics and reduced uncertainty related to legal and regulatory requirements. Remaining development will take place in distinct stages with specific work programs and budgets. This approach will facilitate more efficient planning and execution and improved cost control. In the interim, Barrick will explore opportunities to improve the project’s risk-adjusted returns, including strategic partnerships or royalty and other income streaming agreements. The company will preserve the option to resume development of this asset, which has a mine life of 25 years.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
In December, 2013, Barrick announced that its Founder and Chairman, Peter Munk, would retire as Chairman and step down from the Board of Directors at the company’s 2014 Annual General Meeting (AGM). John Thornton, currently Co-Chairman, will become Chairman following the 2014 AGM. In addition, Howard Beck and Brian Mulroney will not stand for re-election as Directors at the 2014 AGM. The Board has nominated four new Independent Directors to stand for election at the company’s upcoming AGM: Ned Goodman, Nancy Lockhart, David Naylor and Ernie Thrasher. Barrick also announced it will implement a new executive compensation plan in 2014 that is fully aligned with the principle of pay-for-performance, and further links compensation with the long-term interests of shareholders. The company has consulted extensively with shareholders in the development of this plan and continues to do so. Details will be announced in the management proxy circular prior to the AGM.

BARRICK FOURTH QUARTER AND YEAR-END 2013 6 PRESS RELEASE
OPERATING RESULTS DISCUSSION
Cortez The Cortez mine produced 0.24 million ounces at AISC of $498 per ounce in the fourth quarter. Even with lower production anticipated in 2014, Cortez remains one of the largest and most attractive gold assets in the world, and a cornerstone operation for Barrick. As anticipated in the mine plan, production this year is expected to be 0.925-0.975 million ounces, primarily due to a decrease in ore grades. AISC are expected to increase to $750-$780 per ounce in 2014 as a result of lower production and higher sustaining capital related to waste stripping for the Cortez Hills open pit.
Goldstrike In the fourth quarter, Goldstrike produced 0.24 million ounces at AISC of $770 per ounce. The autoclave facility is undergoing modifications that will enable Goldstrike to bring forward about 4.0 million ounces of production. The total construction cost for this project is $585 million. Expansion capital expenditures related to the project are expected to be $245 million in 2014. First production from the modified autoclaves is anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2014. The modified autoclaves are expected to contribute about 0.350-0.450 million ounces of annual production in their first full five years of operation. Goldstrike is expected to produce 0.865-0.915 million ounces in 2014 at AISC of $920-$950 per ounce. Production is anticipated to increase to above 1.0 million ounces in 2015 with a full year of operations from the modified autoclaves9.
Pueblo Viejo Barrick’s 60 percent share of production from Pueblo Viejo in the fourth quarter was 0.16 million ounces at AISC of $720 per ounce. The mine is expected to reach full capacity in the first half of 2014 following completion of modifications to the lime circuit. Barrick’s share of production in 2014 is expected to be 0.600-0.700 million ounces at AISC of $510-$610 per ounce. The lower anticipated AISC are based on higher production, higher by-product credits and lower power costs following the commissioning of the 215 megawatt power plant in the third quarter of 2013.
Lagunas Norte Lagunas Norte produced 0.20 million ounces at AISC of $613 per ounce in the fourth quarter. In 2014, the mine is expected to produce 0.570–0.610 million ounces, processing more ore tons at lower grades compared to 2013. The increase in ore tons is mainly due to higher fleet availability following the transfer of equipment from the Pierina mine. Anticipated AISC of $640-$680 per ounce in 2014 primarily reflect higher fuel and labor costs related to the increase in tonnage, and an increase in power costs due to a full year of operations at the carbon-in-column plant.
Veladero Veladero produced 0.14 million ounces at AISC of $969 per ounce in the fourth quarter. Veladero is anticipated to produce 0.650-0.700 million ounces in 2014, reflecting increased recovery of leached

BARRICK FOURTH QUARTER AND YEAR-END 2013 7 PRESS RELEASE
ounces and higher grades from the Argenta and Filo Federico pits10. Higher expected AISC of $940- $990 per ounce in 2014 are primarily impacted by lower silver by-product credits, local inflation and the foreign exchange rate of the Argentine peso.
North America ─ Other Barrick’s other North American mines consist of Bald Mountain, Round Mountain, Turquoise Ridge, Golden Sunlight, Ruby Hill and Hemlo. This segment produced 0.23 million ounces in the fourth quarter at AISC of $1,195 per ounce and is anticipated to produce 0.795-0.845 million ounces in 2014 at AISC of $1,075-$1,100 per ounce.
Australia Pacific Australia Pacific produced 0.36 million ounces at AISC of $966 per ounce in the fourth quarter. Porgera contributed 0.13 million ounces at AISC of $1,350 per ounce. Due to the sale of four mines and the announced divestiture of Kanowna, 2014 production is expected to decline to 1.000-1.080 million ounces in 2014. AISC in 2014 are expected to increase to $1,050-$1,100 per ounce, primarily due to expensing of waste removal costs at Porgera, and higher open pit mining costs at Cowal and Kalgoorlie.
African Barrick Gold (ABG)
Fourth quarter attributable production from ABG was 0.12 million ounces at AISC of $1,171 per ounce. Full year attributable production for 2014 is expected to be 0.480-0.510 million ounces at AISC of $1,100-$1,175 per ounce. Production in 2014 is anticipated to be higher than 2013 due to higher grades at Bulyanhulu and Buzwagi, as well as the commissioning of the new carbon-in-leach plant at Bulyanhulu, which is scheduled to commence production in May. The improved cost outlook reflects the impact of ABG’s operational review, lower sustaining capital costs and reduced corporate overhead costs.
Global Copper Copper production in the fourth quarter was 139 million pounds at C1 cash costs of $1.81 per pound and C3 fully allocated costs of $2.33 per pound. Lumwana contributed 67 million pounds at C1 cash costs of $2.04 per pound. Production at Lumwana in 2014 is expected to be similar to 2013 at slightly lower C1 cash costs. The mine is pursuing a number of initiatives to further improve on cost reductions achieved to date.
The Zaldívar mine produced 72 million pounds in the fourth quarter at C1 cash costs of $1.62 per pound. Production at Zaldívar is anticipated to decrease in 2014 with fewer ore tons mined and processed in line with the mine plan. Production will also be impacted by lower recoveries as the mine processes a higher percentage of secondary sulfide material. C1 cash costs are expected to increase as a result of the impact of lower production on unit costs.
10 Guidance for Veladero in 2014 assumes the receipt of necessary permit amendments. See page 26 of the MD&A.
