Barrick Gold Corporation is one of the largest gold mining companies globally, with a significant presence in Tanzania. The company operates the Bulyanhulu, North Mara, and Buzwagi gold mines, all located in the Lake Victoria Goldfields in northwestern Tanzania. These mines have been a key part of Barrick’s operations since its acquisition of Acacia Mining in 2019, which was previously involved in mining in the region.
Barrick focuses on sustainable mining practices and works closely with local communities to improve living standards. The company has invested in various community development programs, including education, healthcare, and infrastructure improvements, aimed at benefiting the people living near the mines. Barrick also focuses on the efficient extraction of gold while minimizing environmental impact through modern technologies and practices.
