Our mission is to be the world’s most valued gold mining business by finding, developing, and owning the best assets, with the best people, to deliver sustainable returns for our owners and partners.

 The Hemlo mining operation is located approximately 46 kilometres east of Marathon, Ontario, and has produced gold continuously since 1985. The operation includes an underground mine and open-pit mine complex with a processing facility. Several years ago, the Hemlo operation entered a new phase of its productive life with the purchase of adjacent lands, increasing the site’s mineable reserves. The site’s mine life is now extended until 2027 with the possibility of additional expansions.

Hemlo’s original TSM goal was to achieve and maintain a minimum ranking of a Level A within each Protocol. The site’s extended mine life provides new opportunities for further enhancements to Hemlo’s practices and operating standards. As a result, the site is now seeking higher rankings through continued diligence and the application of TSM, coupled with other international practices and standards.

Hemlo’s commitment to improve is further demonstrated by the site’s continued certification by independent third-party auditors under the ISO 145001 Certification for Health and Safety Management and the ISO 14001 Certification for Environmental Management. These certifications, together with TSM, reinforce Barrick’s commitment to the environment and continued sustainability. Barrick is committed to using the TSM results as an opportunity to identify and improve areas of management.
