CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
Certain information contained or incorporated by reference in this presentation, including any information as to our strategy, projects, plans or future financial or operating performance, constitutes
“forward-looking statements”. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “contemplate”, “target”, “plan”,
“objective” “aspiration”, “aim”, “intend”, “project”, “continue”, “budget”, “estimate”, “potential”, “may”, “will”, “can”, “could” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. In particular, this
presentation contains forward-looking statements including, without limitation, with respect to cash flow forecasts, projected capital, operating and exploration expenditures, targeted debt reductions and
cash flow improvements, mine life and production rates, potential mineralization and metal or mineral recoveries, expectations regarding future price assumptions, financial performance and other outlook
or guidance, Barrick’s Best-in-Class program (including potential improvements to financial and operating performance and mine life that may result from certain Best-in-Class initiatives) and the
estimated timing and conclusions of technical reports and other studies. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable
by the company as at the date of this presentation in light of management’s experience and perception of current conditions and expected developments, are inherently subject to significant business,
economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Known and unknown factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements and undue
reliance should not be placed on such statements and information. Such factors include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in the spot and forward price of gold, copper or certain other commodities
(such as silver, diesel fuel, natural gas and electricity); the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development; changes in mineral production performance, exploitation and exploration successes;
risks associated with the fact that certain Best-in-Class initiatives and studies are still in the early stages of evaluation and additional engineering and other analysis is required to fully assess their impact;
diminishing quantities or grades of reserves; increased costs, delays, suspensions and technical challenges associated with the construction of capital projects; operating or technical difficulties in
connection with mining or development activities, including disruptions in the maintenance or provision of required infrastructure and information technology systems; failure to comply with environmental
and health and safety laws and regulations; timing of receipt of, or failure to comply with, necessary permits and approvals; uncertainty whether some or all of the Best-in-Class initiatives and studies will
meet the company’s capital allocation objectives; the impact of global liquidity and credit availability on the timing of cash flows and the values of assets and liabilities based on projected future cash
flows; adverse changes in our credit ratings; the impact of inflation; fluctuations in the currency markets; changes in U.S. dollar interest rates; risks arising from holding derivative instruments; changes in
national and local government legislation, taxation, controls or regulations and/or changes in the administration of laws, policies and practices, expropriation or nationalization of property and political or
economic developments in Canada, the United States and other jurisdictions in which the company does or may carry on business in the future; damage to the company’s reputation due to the actual or
perceived occurrence of any number of events, including negative publicity with respect to the company’s handling of environmental matters or dealings with community groups, whether true or not; the
possibility that future exploration results will not be consistent with the company’s expectations; risks that exploration data may be incomplete and considerable additional work may be required to
complete further evaluation, including but not limited to drilling, engineering and socio-economic studies and investment; risk of loss due to acts of war, terrorism, sabotage and civil disturbances;
litigation; contests over title to properties, particularly title to undeveloped properties, or over access to water, power and other required infrastructure; business opportunities that may be presented to,
or pursued by, the company; our ability to successfully integrate acquisitions or complete divestitures; risks associated with working with partners in jointly controlled assets; employee relations;
increased costs and risks related to the potential impact of climate change; availability and increased costs associated with mining inputs and labor; and the organization of our previously held African gold
operations and properties under a separate listed company. In addition, there are risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining, including environmental
hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected formations, pressures, cave-ins, flooding and gold bullion, copper cathode or gold or copper concentrate losses (and the risk of inadequate insurance,
or inability to obtain insurance, to cover these risks).
Many of these uncertainties and contingencies can affect our actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by,
or on behalf of, us. Readers are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. All of the forward-looking statements made in this presentation are qualified by
these cautionary statements. Specific reference is made to the most recent Form 40-F/Annual Information Form on file with the SEC and Canadian provincial securities regulatory authorities for a more
detailed discussion of some of the factors underlying forward-looking statements and the risks that may affect Barrick's ability to achieve the expectations set forth in the forward-looking statements
contained in this presentation.
The company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable
law.

Three Independent Opportunities to Generate Value
1. Run Quisqueya at 100%, sell excess power to grid
– Production cost significantly lower than grid price
2. Convert plant from HFO to LNG to reduce exposure to oil prices
– Capex estimated at below $100M
3. Buy all mine site power requirements from alternative producer, sell
all Quisqueya power to grid
– Pueblo Viejo has good credit and negotiating ability

A vertical longitudinal section looking 017 degrees. Some distortion is present due to a change in strike between the Main Zone
and the C Zone. Historic significant intercepts, whether drilled by Barrick or a third party, are shown as red dots. Recent
diamond drilling (2014 and 2015) is shown as green dots. Know diamond drill intersections not considered to be significant are
shown as black dots. Significant intercepts have been chosen based on mine-site economic cut off grades and thicknesses. The
current minimum mining width at Williams is 2m, to which a minimum of 1m of dilution must be added. Cut off grades are
commonly in the 3 g/t Au range, which varies by the area within the mine and specific details of stope. An intersection of at
least 3g/t Au, with a grade X thickness equal to or greater than 9 g/t Au metres is therefore considered significant. For
instance, an intersection of 3 g/t over a true width of 3 m is considered significant. An intersection of 8 g/t over 2 m has grade
X thickness of 8X2=16 and is considered significant, whereas an intersection of 8 g/t Au over 1 m has grade X thickness of
8X1=8, which is less than 9, and is not considered significant. Conversely, an intersection of 2 g/t Au over 10m has a grade X
thickness of 2X10=20, but is not considered significant because the grade is not greater than 3 g/t Au. No capping grade was
used to calculate the significant intercepts. True width is estimated using an assumed dip of 70 degrees to the N/NNE. In areas
of sparse drilling, the dip is not precisely known, and has been known to vary from 50 degrees to 80 degrees within the
camp. Barrick-Hemlo employs industry standard quality assurance and quality control procedures.

meters at greater than 5.0 gpt. The significant intercepts presented were calculated using a 5.0 gpt Au cutoff with internal dilution of no more than 10% included in
the calculation. No capping grade was used to calculate the significant intercepts. Barrick employs industry standard quality assurance and quality control procedures
for the Fourmile drill program, under which all samples are sent to a commercial laboratory and include standards, duplicates and check assay controls.
The drilling results for the Fourmile property contained in this presentation have been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of
Disclosure for Mineral Projects. All drill hole assay information has been manually reviewed and approved by staff geologists and re-checked by the project manager.
Sample preparation and analyses are conducted by an independent laboratory. Procedures are employed to ensure security of samples during their delivery from the
drill rig to the laboratory. The quality assurance procedures, data verification and assay protocols used in connection with drilling and sampling on the Fourmile
property conform to industry accepted quality control methods.

M+I sensitivities for Barrick’s 63.9% interest in the Acacia mines have been calculated for the following assumed gold prices, only: Bulyanhulu
and Buzwagi mines: $1,000/oz, $1,100/oz and $1,200/oz; North Mara mine: $1,000/oz, $1,100/oz, $1,200/oz and $1,300/oz
3.
M+I sensitivities for Barrick’s 50% interest in the Kalgoorlie mine have been calculated for assumed gold prices of $900/oz and $1,000/oz,
only.
4.
No M&I resource amounts are included where the assumed gold price is below the lowest assumed price for which a sensitivity was calculated.
For example, total M&I resources at an assumed gold price of $900/oz excludes all resources attributable to the Acacia mines. Where the
assumed gold price is above the highest assumed price for which a sensitivity was calculated, total M&I resources include amounts equal to
those calculated for such highest assumed price. For example, total M&I resources at an assumed gold price of $1,300/oz includes Bulyanhulu
and Buzwagi at an assumed gold price of $1,200/oz, and Kalgoorlie at an assumed gold price of $1,000/oz.
5.
Barrick divested the Bald Mountain mine and its interest in the Round Mountain mine on January 11, 2016. Accordingly, for the purpose of this
sensitivity analysis, ounces attributable to Bald Mountain and Round Mountain have been excluded from M&I resource amounts and
corresponding estimates of Barrick’s reserves as at December 31, 2015.
6.
For the purpose of the M+I, incremental M+I and inferred sensitivities, tonnage, grade and ounces attributable to Bald Mountain, Round
Mountain, Acacia mines and KCGM were removed from the calculations.
7.
Incremental refers to the material between the shapes created by use of M+I classified material only and the shapes created using M+I +
Inferred. The M+I in this increment is the Incremental M+I. The Inferred is the sum of the inferred classified material in the M+I shape and
the Incremental shape.

Operations at Cortez are split between two complexes, Pipeline and Cortez Hills.
The Pipeline complex is mined via open pit; Cortez Hills is mined via open pit and
underground. Both complexes have heap leach facilities (Area 34 and Area 30).
Higher grade oxide ore is processed in an onsite conventional SAG mill with CIL
recovery which have a design capacity of 14ktpd. Refractory ore is trucked 125km
to Goldstrike for processing in the roaster or TCM circuit.

APPENDIX
CortezȂ ʹͲͳͷ‡˜‹‡™ƬʹͲͳ͸ƒ”‰‡–•
In 2015 gold production was 999koz, a
11% increase over the prior year. This was
primarily due to processing of higher grade ore
from the open pit combined with higher
recoveries, as well as increased underground
production from higher grade ore. Cash costs
were $486 per ounce, down $12 per ounce
compared to the prior year primarily due to the
impact of higher sales volume on unit
production costs. All-in sustaining costs of
$603 per ounce decreased by $103 per ounce
compared to 2014, primarily due to a reduction
in sustaining capital expenditures as a result of
lower capitalized stripping costs, combined with
lower cash costs.
For 2016 we expect gold production to be
in the range of 900-1,000koz, in line with 2015
production levels. Underground ore grades are
expected to decline as the mine transitions to
lower grade ore zones deeper in the deposit.
This is offset by an increase in open pit
production, recovered through leaching, as the
open pit encounters larger volumes of this
material in 2016. As a result, we expect cash
costs to be in the range of $480-$530 per
ounce, consistent with 2015. All-in sustaining
costs are forecast at $640-$710 per ounce,
higher than 2015 primarily due to higher
sustaining capital expenditures on water
management projects and open pit haul truck
capitalized maintenance.

Goldstrike has produced over 41 M ounces since American Barrick acquired the
property in 1987. Goldstrike consist of the BetzeǦPost open pit and the Meikle and
Rodeo underground mines. Meikle is a highǦgrade ore body which is mined by
transverse longhole stoping, underhand drift and fill mining methods. Rodeo is a
trackless operation, using two different underground mining methods: longǦhole
open stoping and driftǦandǦfill. Double refractory ore is processed both at the
Roaster and the Autoclave/TCM.

APPENDIX
GoldstrikeȂ ʹͲͳͷ‡˜‹‡™ƬʹͲͳ͸ƒ”‰‡–•
In 2015 gold production was 1,053koz,
17% higher than the prior year. The increase
was primarily due to higher grades from the
open pit, partially offset by a decrease in ore
tonnes processed and recoveries. Cash costs
were $522 per ounce, down $49 per ounce, or
9%, compared to the prior year. The decrease
was primarily due to the impact of higher sales
volume on unit production costs. All-in
sustaining costs of $658 per ounce for 2015
decreased by $196 per ounce compared to the
prior year primarily due to lower cash costs
combined with a decrease in mine-site
sustaining capital expenditures.
For 2016 we expect gold production to be
in the range of 975-1,075koz, which is slightly
higher than 2015 production levels, due
primarily to Arturo coming on line and the full
benefit of Autoclave production. We expect
cash costs to be in the range of $560 to $610
per ounce, which is slightly higher than 2015
costs due to the higher percentage of ounces to
be recovered through TCM. All-in sustaining
costs are forecast at $780-$850 per ounce,
which is higher than 2015 primarily due
sustaining capital expenditures for tailings
expansions, water management projects,
process improvements, and timing of
underground equipment replacements.

In 2015 gold production of 219koz
increased by 6% over the prior year. The
increase was primarily due to increase in
underground tonnes. Cash costs were $708
per ounce, down $121 per ounce, compared to
the prior year, primarily due to increases in
underground productivity rates, cost reduction
initiatives and favorable exchange rate. All-in
sustaining costs of $895 per ounce
decreased by $164 per ounce compared to
2014 primarily due to capital optimization and
favorable exchange rate.
For 2016 we expect gold production to be
in the range of 200-220koz, similar to 2015
production levels. Cash costs are expected to
be in the range of $600-$660 per ounce, which
is lower than 2015 due to higher underground
production rates and cost reduction efforts. Allin sustaining costs are forecast at $790-$870
per ounce, which is lower than 2015 primarily
due to capital optimization and operating
expenditure reductions. Favorable exchange
rates for 2016 are influencing both cash costs
and AISC.

The property lies on the western flank of the Peruvian Andes at 4,000-4,260 meters
above sea level. Lagunas Norte is a conventional openǦpit, crush, valleyǦfill heap leach
operation. Ore processing is via a twoǦstage conventional crushing circuit, followed by
heap leaching and Merrill Crowe or Carbon-in-Column (CIC) precipitation plants. The
pregnant solution is delivered to the Merrill Crowe or CIC plants by pumps. The Merrill
Crowe plant has a design capacity of 1,200m3 per hour, however the current average
capacity has increased to 2,700m3 per hour. CIC plant has a design capacity of 2,140m3
per hour.

In 2015 gold production of 560 koz
decreased by 4% over the prior year primarily
due to processing of lower recovery ore as the
mine transitions to more complex sulfide ore.
This was partially offset by the acceleration in
ounce recovery from the new leach pad and
increased capacity from the carbon-in-circuit
(commissioned at the end of 2013) and MerrillCrowe plants, combined with processing of
higher grade ore. Cash costs were $329 per
ounce, down $50 per ounce from 2014
primarily due to reductions in fuel, explosives
and labor costs combined with a decrease in
royalty expense. All-in sustaining costs of
$509 per ounce for 2015 decreased by $34 per
ounce compared to the prior year primarily due
to lower cash costs and sustaining capital
expenditures.
For 2016 we expect gold production to be
in the range of 410-450 koz, down from 2015
production levels in line with the progressive
depletion of oxide ores, which are being
replaced with sulfide ore with lower kinetics and
recoveries. Cash costs are expected to be in
the range of $380-$420 per ounce and higher
all-in sustaining costs of $570-$640 per
ounce are driven mainly by the decrease in
production and a similar level of capital
expenditures related to Phase 6 of the leach
pad expansion, which will be completed in
2016, partially offset by lower operational costs
mainly in mine maintenance, labor and
administrative (G&A) costs.

Barrick acquired the asset through the Equinox acquisition in 2011. The Lumwana
copper mine is located in Zambia’s Copperbelt, one of the most prospective copper
regions in the world. The plant has a milling design capacity of 65 ktpd. Lumwana ore,
which is predominantly sulfide, is treated through a conventional sulfide flotation plant,

In 2015 copper production of 287 Mlb
increased by 34% over the prior year. The
increase was primarily due to an increase in
tonnes processed. C1 cash costs were $1.72
per lb, down $0.36 per lb, or 17%, compared
to the prior year. The decrease was primarily
due to the impact of higher sales volume on
unit production costs. All-in sustaining costs
of $2.42 for 2015 decreased by $0.73 per lb
compared to the prior year primarily due to
increased production volume combined with a
decrease in site expenditures.
For 2016 we expect copper production to
be in the range of 270-290 Mlb, which is down
from 2015 production levels, due primarily to
reduced grade from the open pit which is partly
offset by an increase in tonnes processed.
Operating costs are expected to be lower than
2015 levels due to reduced unit mining cost,
royalty, and treatment/refining costs. As a
result, we expect C1 cash costs to be in the
range of $1.35 to $1.60 per lb, which is lower
than 2015 on cost reductions and equipment
productivity, as well as favorable exchange
rates. All-in sustaining costs are forecast at
$1.90-$2.20 per lb, which is lower than 2015
primarily due to reduced operating cost and a
lower royalty rate.

In 2015 gold production of 436 koz
decreased by 11% over the prior year. Even
though the mine has improved and production
has risen on a 100% basis, the decrease is a
result of divesting 50% of Barrick Niugini Ltd.
in August. Cash costs were $791 per ounce,
down $124 per ounce, or 14%, compared to
the prior year. The decrease was primarily due
to the impact of operating cost reductions,
power and fuel, and higher sales volume on
unit production costs. All-in sustaining costs
of $1,018 per ounce for 2015 increased by $22
per ounce compared to the prior year primarily
due to an increase in mine-site sustaining
capital expenditures.
For 2016 we expect gold production to be
in the range of 230-260 koz, which is
significantly lower than 2015 production levels,
due primarily to the divesting of 50% of Barrick
Niugini Ltd. in 2015. Operating costs are
expected to be lower than 2015 levels due to
continued focus on cost reduction and improved
operating efficiencies. As a result, we expect
cash costs to be in the range of $700 to $750
per ounce. All-in sustaining costs are
forecast at $990-$1080 per ounce, higher than
2015 with investment in power station upgrades
and additional open pit stripping.

In 2015 gold production of 572 koz was
14% lower than the prior year primarily due to
lower ore grades and recoveries as ore was
sourced from the upper benches of
Montenegro and Moore phase 2 which contain
a higher proportion of carbonaceous, lower
recovery ore. Also impacting production was
the mechanical failure at the oxygen plant that
occurred in Q4 2015. Cash costs were $467
per ounce, up $21 per ounce compared to the
prior year primarily due to the impact of the
lower sales volume on unit production costs.
All-in sustaining costs of $597 per ounce
increased by $9 per ounce compared to the
prior year primarily due to the higher cash
costs, partially offset by a reduction in minesite sustaining capital expenditures.
For 2016 we expect gold production to be
in the range of 600-650 koz, up from 2015
production levels primarily due to improved
throughput and plant availability in the
absence of issues related to the oxygen plant
motor failures which negatively impacted
2015 throughput. Cash costs are expected to
be in the range of $440-$480 per ounce and
all-in sustaining costs are forecast at $570$620 per ounce, lower than 2015 primarily due
to an increase in gold ounces sold, and higher
silver by-product credits as silver recoveries in
2016 approach plan due to improvements in
the lime boil circuit.

The Turquoise Ridge property covers 125km2. The Joint Venture (TRJV) property
occupies 36km2 over the Getchell and Turquoise Ridge deposits. TRJV is 100%
underground mine which is accessed via two shafts from surface (1 production, 1 vent).
Due to the very low rock strength of the orebody, the predominant mining method
employed is drift and fill. Both Topcuts and Undercuts were mechanized in 2013-2015.
Ore is processed through Newmont’s neighboring Twin Creeks facility up to a maximum
of 1,800 tpd.

In 2015 gold production of 217koz
increased by 11% over the prior year, primarily
due to an increase in tonnes mined and
processed resulting from increased manpower
and improved equipment availability combined
with higher productivity due to the transitioning
to fully mechanized topcuts in first quarter
2015. This was partially offset by lower ore
grades. Cash costs were $581 per ounce, up
$108 per ounce compared to the prior year
primarily due to higher cost of sales and a
reduction in capitalized development costs,
partially offset by the impact of higher sales
volume on unit production costs. All-in
sustaining costs of $742 per ounce increased
by $114 per ounce compared to 2014 due to
the higher cash costs.
For 2016 we expect gold production to be
in the range of 200-220koz, in line with 2015
production levels. We expect cash costs to be
in the range of $560-$620 per ounce, similar to
2015. All-in sustaining costs are forecast at
$770-$850 per ounce, higher than 2015
primarily due to higher sustaining capital for the
water treatment plant and timing of equipment
replacement.

VeladeroȂ ˜‡”˜‹‡™
ƒ Location: 6km east of the Chile-Argentina border, 374km NW of San Juan,
Argentina
ƒ Ownership: 100% Barrick
ƒ Mine Type: Open Pit
ƒ Products: Gold, Silver
ƒ 2015 Reserves: 7.5Moz Gold at average grade of 0.85g/tonne
ƒ 2015 M&I Resources: 1.3Moz Gold at average grade of 0.53g/tonne
The mine is located at elevations of between 3,800 and 5,000 meters above sea
level. Ore is crushed by a two-stage crushing process with a design capacity of
80ktpd and transported via trucks to the leach pad area. Veladero has a Valley
Leach facility and a zinc precipitation circuit, using the Merrill Crowe process for
gold and silver recovery. Run-of-mine ore is trucked directly to the valley-fill leach
pad. Electric power is generated on site using diesel generators.

In 2015 gold production of 602 koz
decreased by 17% over the prior year. This was
due to lower ore grades from Federico phase 3
pit combined with a decrease in ore tonnes
processed due to adverse climate conditions. It
was partially offset by an increase in recoveries
due to improved leach pad extraction kinetics.
Cash costs were $552 per ounce, down $14
per ounce compared to the prior year, primarily
due to the lower fuel prices. All-in sustaining
costs of $946 per ounce for 2015 increased by
$131 per ounce compared to 2014. This was
driven by increased mine-site sustaining capital
expenditures on capitalized stripping as well as
leach facilities improvement expenditures.
For 2016 we expect gold production to be
in the range of 630-690 koz, which is up from
2015 production levels as a result of higher
mineral grade, with advancing phases in both
Federico 3 and 4, improved mining productivity
delivering more ore to the crusher and ROM
combined with an improved inventory draw
down relative to 2015 through better
operational management of the leach pad. We
expect cash costs to be in the range of $550$600 per ounce and all-in sustaining costs
are forecast at $830-$900 per ounce, lower
than 2015 mainly due to the increase in gold
production, driving higher sales and lower
operating and non-operating costs.
