future financial or operating performance constitutes &#147;forward-looking statements&#148;. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">forward-looking</FONT> statements. The words
&#147;believe,&#148; &#147;expect,&#148; &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;contemplate,&#148; &#147;target,&#148; &#147;plan,&#148; &#147;intend,&#148; &#147;continue,&#148; &#147;budget,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; &#147;may,&#148; &#147;will,&#148;
&#147;schedule&#148; and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by us, 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. 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 and electricity); changes in national and local government legislation, taxation, controls, regulations, expropriation
or nationalization of property, and political or economic developments in Canada, the United States, Dominican Republic, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Chile, Peru, Argentina, Tanzania, Zambia, Saudi Arabia, United Kingdom, Pakistan or Barbados or
other countries in which we do or may carry on business in the future; diminishing quantities or grades of reserves; increased costs, delays, suspensions and technical challenges associated with the construction of capital projects; 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
(such as Canadian and Australian dollars, Chilean and Argentinean pesos, British pound, Peruvian sol, Zambian kwacha, South African rand, Tanzanian schilling and Papua New Guinean kina versus U.S. dollar); operating or technical difficulties in
connection with mining or development activities; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks of obtaining necessary licenses and permits; contests over title to properties, particularly title to undeveloped
properties; risk of loss due to acts of war, terrorism, sabotage and civil disturbances; changes in U.S. dollar interest rates that could impact the mark-to-market value of outstanding derivative instruments and ongoing payments/receipts under
interest rate swaps and variable rate debt obligations; risks arising from holding derivative instruments (such as credit risk, market liquidity risk and mark-to-market risk); litigation; business opportunities that may be presented to, or pursued
by, us; our ability to successfully integrate acquisitions or complete divestitures; employee relations; availability and increased costs associated with mining inputs and labor; and the organization of our 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/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 <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">forward-looking</FONT> statements made by, or on behalf of, us. Readers are cautioned that <FONT

<P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center"><B>OF OUR MINERAL RESERVE AND MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATES </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I></I>Our mineral reserves and mineral resources have been calculated in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 &#150; <I>Standards of
Disclosure for Mineral Projects</I> (&#147;<I></I><B>NI 43-101</B><I></I>&#148;), as required by Canadian securities regulatory authorities. For United States reporting purposes, Industry Guide 7 (under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the &#147;<I></I><B>Exchange Act</B><I></I>&#148;)), as interpreted by the Staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;<I></I><B>SEC</B><I></I>&#148;), applies different standards in order to classify mineralization as a
reserve. Accordingly, for U.S. reporting purposes, as at December&nbsp;31, 2012, approximately 1.98&nbsp;million ounces of reserves at Pueblo Viejo (Barrick&#146;s 60% interest) are classified as mineralized material. In addition, while the terms
&#147;measured,&#148; &#147;indicated&#148; and &#147;inferred&#148; mineral resources are required pursuant to NI 43-101, the SEC does not recognize such terms. Canadian standards differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC, and mineral
resource information contained herein and in the documents incorporated herein by reference is not comparable to similar information regarding mineral reserves disclosed in accordance with the requirements of the SEC. Investors should understand
that &#147;inferred&#148; mineral resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to their economic and legal feasibility. In addition, investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of our mineral resources
constitute or will be converted into reserves. Accordingly, information contained in this Prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference herein, containing descriptions of Barrick&#146;s mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar
information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting requirements of United States Federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.<I> </I></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Barrick is a corporation existing under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. A majority of our assets are located outside of the
United States. In addition, some of our directors and officers and most of the experts named in this Prospectus are resident outside the United States, and a majority of their assets are located outside of the United States. As a result, it may be
difficult for United States investors to effect service of process within the United States upon those directors, officers or experts who are not residents of the United States, or to realize in the United States upon judgments of courts of the
United States predicated upon civil liability of such directors, officers or experts under United States federal securities laws. We have been advised by Davies Ward Phillips&nbsp;&amp; Vineberg LLP, our Canadian counsel, that there may be some
doubt whether a judgment of a U.S. court predicated solely upon civil liability provisions of United States federal securities laws would be enforceable in Ontario. We have also been advised by such counsel that there is substantial doubt whether an
action could be brought in Ontario in the first instance on the basis of liability predicated solely upon United States federal securities laws. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have filed with the SEC, concurrently with the filing of the registration statement on Form F-10 relating to this Offering, an appointment
of agent for service of process on Form F-X. Under the Form F-X, we appointed CT Corporation System as our agent for service of process in the United States in connection with any investigation or administrative proceeding conducted by the SEC and

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Before deciding to purchase Common Shares in the Offering, prospective purchasers should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties
described below and under the heading &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in the Annual Information Form, which is incorporated by reference herein, as well as the other information contained in or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus. These risks and
uncertainties are not the only ones that we are facing. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any such risks actually occur, our business,
financial condition and operating results could be materially harmed. </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Risks and Other Considerations Related to this Offering </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The Common Shares are Subject to Market Price Volatility </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The market price of the Common Shares may be adversely affected by a variety of factors relating to our business, including fluctuations in our
operating and financial results, the results of any public announcements made by us, our failure to meet analysts&#146; expectations and changes in gold, copper and other commodity prices. In addition, the market price and trading volume of
securities of mining companies have experienced substantial volatility in the past, sometimes based on factors unrelated to the financial performance or prospects of the companies involved. These factors include general fluctuations in the stock
market, changes in global financial markets, general market conditions, changes in gold, copper and other commodity prices, macroeconomic developments in the countries where such companies carry on business and globally and market perceptions of the
attractiveness of particular industries. The trading price of the Common Shares has been volatile. During the period from January&nbsp;1, 2011 to October&nbsp;31, 2013, the last reported closing sale price of the Common Shares has been as high as
Cdn.$54.61 and as low as Cdn.$14.57 per share on the TSX and as high as $55.63 and as low as $13.76 per share on the NYSE. See &#147;Market for Securities&#148;. The stock markets in general have recently experienced extreme volatility. This
volatility may adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares. The market price of the Common Shares is also likely to be significantly affected by changes in precious metal prices and other mineral prices, currency exchange fluctuations and
the political and regulatory environment in the countries in which we do business and globally. </P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Potential Dilution </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our articles of amalgamation allow us to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares for such consideration and on such terms and conditions as
shall be established by our Board of Directors, in many cases, without the approval of our shareholders. As part of this Offering (assuming the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full), we expect to issue up to 188,025,000 Common Shares. In
addition, as at September&nbsp;30, 2013, there were 7,446,667 Common Shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options of Barrick at prices ranging from Cdn.$18.09 to Cdn.$29.60 and $19.81 to $54.83. We may issue additional Common
Shares in subsequent public or private offerings (including through the sale of securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) and on the exercise of stock options or other securities exercisable for Common Shares. We may also issue
Common Shares to finance future acquisitions and other projects or in connection with the establishment or development of strategic relationships. Any such future issuances of Common Shares could be significant and we cannot predict the effect that
future issuances and sales of Common Shares will have on the market price of the Common Shares. Issuances of a substantial number of additional Common Shares, or the perception that such issuances could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market
prices for our Common Shares. With any additional issuance of Common Shares, investors will suffer dilution to their voting power and we may experience dilution in our earnings per share. </P>

of its liabilities and stated capital of all classes of shares of its capital. Furthermore, holders of Common Shares may be subject to the prior dividend rights of holders of our preferred shares, if any, then outstanding. Our ability to pay
dividends will be subject to our future earnings, capital requirements and financial condition, as well as compliance with covenants and financial ratios relating to existing or future indebtedness. Although Barrick has in recent years generally
declared quarterly cash dividends on the Common Shares, the Board of Directors determined following the second quarter of 2013 to reduce Barrick&#146;s quarterly dividend. There can be no assurance that our Board of Directors will elect to pay
future dividends on our Common Shares. See &#147;Dividend Policy&#148;. <I> </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Use of Proceeds </I></B></P>

and profits (as determined for United States federal income tax purposes) will constitute a dividend for United States federal income tax purposes. If you are a non-corporate U.S. holder (including an individual), dividends paid to you that
constitute qualified dividend income will be taxable to you at preferential rates provided that you hold the Common Shares for more than 60 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend date and certain other requirements
are satisfied. Dividends we pay with respect to the Common Shares should be qualified dividend income.<B> </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Dividends will be taxable
to you when actually or constructively received. Dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to United States corporations in respect of dividends received from other United States corporations.
Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for United States federal income tax purposes) will be treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of your basis in the Common Shares and
thereafter as capital gain. We do not intend to maintain calculations of earnings and profits in accordance with United States federal income tax principles. Therefore, each U.S. holder should assume that any distribution by us with respect to the
Common Shares will constitute dividend income for United States federal income tax purposes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Subject to certain limitations, the Canadian
tax withheld and paid over to Canada will be creditable or deductible against your United States federal income tax liability. Special rules apply in determining the foreign tax credit limitation with respect to qualified dividend income. For
foreign tax credit purposes, dividends will be income from sources outside the United States and will generally constitute &#147;passive category&#148; income for purposes of computing the foreign tax credit allowable to you. The rules relating to
the determination of the foreign tax credit are complex and you should consult your own tax advisors regarding the application of the foreign tax credit to any Canadian tax withheld with respect to the Common Shares </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Taxation of Sales or Other Dispositions </B></P>

capital gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes equal to the difference between the United States dollar value of the amount that you realize and the United States dollar amount of your tax basis in your Common Shares. Capital
gain of a non-corporate U.S. holder (including an individual) is generally eligible for preferential tax rates where the U.S. holder has a holding period greater than one year. The gain or loss will generally be income or loss from sources within
the United States for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. Deductions for capital losses are subject to complex limitations under the Code. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Passive

in which you hold Common Shares, at least 75% of our gross income consists of certain passive income or at least 50% of the value of our assets is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of such passive income. For this
purpose, &#147;passive income&#148; generally includes, among other things, interest, dividends, rents, royalties, certain gains from the sale of stock and securities and certain gains from commodities transactions. Active business gains arising
from the sale of commodities generally are excluded from passive income if substantially all (85% or more) of a foreign corporation&#146;s commodities are stock in trade or inventory, depreciable property used in a trade or business, or supplies
regularly used or consumed in the ordinary course of a trade or business. </P>

we will not be classified as a PFIC for United States federal income tax purposes for the current taxable year and do not expect to become a PFIC in future taxable years. However, this conclusion is a factual determination that is made annually
after the end of such taxable year and thus may be subject to change or differing interpretations. In addition, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or a court may disagree with the Company&#146;s position, and the Company cannot assure U.S. holders
that the Company is not currently a PFIC and that it will not become a PFIC in the future. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the Company were a PFIC, U.S. holders would
be subject to a special, adverse United States federal tax regime that would differ in certain respects from that described above. U.S. holders should consult their own U.S. tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to their
investment in the Common Shares and whether to make a protective election that may mitigate some of the adverse consequences that would result if the Company were a PFIC. </P>

threshold) may be required to file IRS Form 8938 with their U.S. Federal income tax returns. &#147;Specified foreign financial assets&#148; may include financial accounts maintained by foreign financial institutions, as well as the following, but
only if they are not held in accounts maintained by financial institutions: (i)&nbsp;stocks and securities issued by non-United States persons, (ii)&nbsp;financial instruments and contracts held for investment that have non-United States issuers or

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In general, if you are a non-corporate U.S. holder you will be subject to information reporting requirements with respect to distributions on
the Common Shares and to proceeds received upon the sale or other disposition of Common Shares. Furthermore, backup withholding (currently at a rate of 28%) may apply to such amounts if you are a non-corporate U.S. holder and you fail to furnish a
correct taxpayer identification number to certify that you are not subject to backup withholding or to otherwise comply with the backup withholding requirements. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or
credit against your United States federal income tax liability, provided that you timely furnish the required information to the Internal Revenue Service. You should consult your own tax advisers as to your qualification for an exemption from backup
withholding and the procedure for obtaining such an exemption. </P>

Barrick, a former director or officer of Barrick or another individual who acts or acted at Barrick&#146;s request as a director or officer, or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of another entity, against all costs, charges and expenses,
including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that
association with Barrick or the other entity on condition that (i)&nbsp;the individual acted honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of Barrick or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the
individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at Barrick&#146;s request, and (ii)&nbsp;in the case of a criminal or administrative action or proceeding that is enforced by a monetary penalty, the individual had reasonable
grounds for believing that his or her conduct was lawful. Further, Barrick may, with court approval, indemnify an individual described above in respect of an action by or on behalf of Barrick or another entity to obtain a judgment in its favor, to
which the individual is made a party by reason of the individual&#146;s association with Barrick or such other entity described above, against all costs, charges and expenses reasonably incurred by the individual in connection with such action if
the individual fulfils condition (i)&nbsp;above. An individual referred to above is entitled to indemnification from Barrick as a matter of right if he or she was not judged by a court or other competent authority to have committed any fault or
omitted to do anything he or she ought to have done and fulfils conditions (i)&nbsp;and (ii)&nbsp;above. Barrick has entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with each Barrick director and officer under which Barrick has agreed to indemnify and hold
harmless the individual in substantially the same circumstances as outlined in this paragraph.<I> </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In accordance with the provisions
of the OBCA described above, the by-laws of Barrick provide that, subject to the relevant provisions of the OBCA, Barrick shall indemnify a director or officer of Barrick, a former director or officer of Barrick, or another individual who acts or
acted at Barrick&#146;s request as a director or officer, or an individual acting in a similar capacity, of another entity, against all costs, charges and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably
incurred by the individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that association with Barrick or such other entity if the individual acted honestly and in
good faith with a view to the best interests of Barrick or, as the case may be, to the best interests of the other entity for which the individual acted as a director or officer or in a similar capacity at Barrick&#146;s request. </P>
