“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

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.

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

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.

BARRICK FOURTH QUARTER 2013 |  | 10 |  | SUMMARY INFORMATION

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (“MD&A”)

Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand Barrick Gold Corporation (“Barrick”, “we”, “our” or the “Company”), our operations, financial performance and present and future business environment. This MD&A, which has been prepared as of February 12, 2014, should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013. Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts are presented in US dollars.

For the purposes of preparing our MD&A, we consider the materiality of information. Information is considered material if: (i) such information results in, or would reasonably be expected to result in, a significant change in the market price or value of our shares; or (ii) there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable investor would consider it important in

making an investment decision; or (iii) it would significantly alter the total mix of information available to investors. We evaluate materiality with reference to all relevant circumstances, including potential market sensitivity.

Continuous disclosure materials, including our most recent Form 40-F/Annual Information Form, annual MD&A, audited consolidated financial statements, and Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders and Proxy Circular will be available on our website at www.barrick.com, on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov. For an explanation of terminology unique to the mining industry, readers should refer to the glossary on page 73.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

Certain information contained or incorporated by reference in this MD&A, 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”, “intend”, “continue”, “budget”, “estimate”, “may”, “will”, “schedule” 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 the Company, 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 and 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 and other jurisdictions in which the Company does 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 rating; the impact of inflation; fluctuations in the currency markets; 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; risks arising from holding derivative instruments; litigation; business opportunities that may be presented to, or pursued by, the Company; 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

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 11 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

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 MD&A 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 discussion of some of the factors underlying forward-looking statements. We disclaim 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.

CHANGES IN PRESENTATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES

We use certain non-GAAP financial performance measures in our MD&A. These measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently. For a detailed description of each of the non-GAAP measures used in this MD&A, please see the discussion under “Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures” beginning on page 63 of our MD&A. In 2013, we added or made changes to the following non-GAAP performance measures:

Adjusted operating costs per ounce, All-in sustaining cash costs per ounce and All-in costs per ounce

Beginning with our 2012 Annual Report, we adopted a non-GAAP “all-in sustaining costs per ounce” measure. This was based on the expectation that the World Gold Council (“WGC”) (a market development organization for the gold industry comprised of and funded by 18 gold mining companies from around the world, including Barrick) was developing a similar metric and that investors and industry analysts were interested in a measure that better represented the total recurring costs associated with producing gold. The WGC is not a regulatory organization. In June 2013, the WGC published its definition of “adjusted operating costs”, “all-in sustaining costs” and also a definition of “all-in costs.” Barrick voluntarily adopted the definition of these metrics starting with our second quarter 2013 MD&A.

The “all-in sustaining costs” measure is similar to our presentation in reports prior to second quarter 2013, with the exception of the classification of sustaining capital. In our previous calculation, certain capital expenditures were presented as mine expansion projects, whereas they meet the definition of sustaining capital expenditures under the WGC

definition, and therefore these expenditures have been reclassified as sustaining capital expenditures.

Our “all-in costs” measure starts with “all-in sustaining costs” and adds additional costs which reflect the varying costs of producing gold over the life-cycle of a mine, including: non-sustaining capital expenditures (capital expenditures at new projects and capital expenditures at existing operations related to projects that significantly increase the net present value of the mine and are not related to current production) and other non-sustaining costs (primarily exploration and evaluation (“E&E”) costs, community relations costs and general and administrative costs that are not associated with current operations). This definition recognizes that there are different costs associated with the life-cycle of a mine, and that it is therefore appropriate to distinguish between sustaining and non-sustaining costs.

We believe that our use of “all-in sustaining costs” and “all-in costs” will assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders of Barrick in understanding the costs associated with producing gold, understanding the economics of gold mining, assessing our operating performance and also our ability to generate free cash flow from current operations and to generate free cash flow on an overall Company basis. Due to the capital intensive nature of the industry and the long useful lives over which these items are depreciated, there can be a significant timing difference between net earnings calculated in accordance with IFRS and the amount of free cash flow that is being generated by a mine. In the current market environment for gold mining equities, many investors and analysts are more focused on the ability of gold mining companies to generate free cash flow from current operations, and consequently we believe these measures are useful non-GAAP operating

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 12 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

metrics and supplement our IFRS disclosures. These measures are not representative of all of our cash expenditures as they do not include income tax payments, interest costs or dividend payments. These measures do not include depreciation or amortization. “All-in sustaining costs” and “all-in costs” are intended to provide additional information only and do not have standardized definitions under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. These measures are not equivalent to net income or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Although the WGC has published a standardized definition, other companies may calculate these measures differently.

Starting in our second quarter 2013 MD&A, the non-GAAP measure “total cash costs” was renamed “adjusted operating costs” in order to conform with the WGC definition of the comparable measure. The manner in which this measure is calculated has not been changed.

Beginning in our second quarter 2013 MD&A, in addition to presenting these metrics on a by-product basis, we have calculated these metrics on a co-product basis. Our co-product metrics remove the impact of other metal sales that are produced as a byproduct of our gold production from cost per ounce calculations, but does not reflect a reduction in costs for costs associated with other metal sales.

The table on page 67 reconciles these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures and previous periods have been recalculated to conform to our current definition. We have also included as references additional information as to how each of the adjustments to cost of sales have been calculated.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 14 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OVERVIEW

Our Business and Strategy

Our Business

We have operating mines or projects in Canada, the United States, the Dominican Republic, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Zambia, Saudi Arabia and Tanzania. We sell our production in the world market through the following distribution channels: gold bullion is sold in the gold spot market; gold and copper concentrate is sold to independent smelting companies; and copper cathode is sold to various manufacturers and traders.

At the end of 2013, we made a change to our organization structure, moving from a Regional Business Unit model to an Operating Unit model. Each Operating Unit will be accountable for managing our core mining business, either at one of our larger mines or within a grouping of mines based on geography and/or the primary metal produced, with a focus on generating free cash flow and maintaining our license to operate by operating in a safe, responsible manner and meeting our environmental obligations and corporate responsibility commitments. Under the new structure, our core operating sites will have a direct reporting line to the Chief Operating Officer, which will increase direct accountability and allow for greater visibility into our most important assets.

The gold Operating Units are: Cortez, Goldstrike, Pueblo Viejo, Lagunas Norte, Veladero, North America – Other and Australia Pacific. We also hold a 73.9% equity interest in African Barrick Gold plc (“ABG”), a publicly traded company, which includes our previously held African gold mines and exploration properties. In addition, our Pascua-Lama project is also an Operating Unit.

Our Global Copper unit manages our copper business with a view towards maximizing the value of our copper assets. The Global Copper unit manages the Zaldívar and Lumwana mines and Jabal Sayid project.

We believe the new operating unit structure will enable us to act quickly in response to opportunities or market developments while maintaining our focus on license to operate matters and compliance, and allow us to maintain our disciplined capital allocation framework in order to maximize the free cash flow from our operations.

Our Strategy

Our actions are driven by our core values reflecting the guiding principles used to run the Company and these values provide the foundation for our strategy. Our core values are:

— |  | Integrity

— |  | Respect and open communication

— |  | Responsibility and accountability

— |  | Teamwork

— |  | Create shareholder value

We are focused on maximizing shareholder value through our commitment to a disciplined capital allocation framework to guide our decision making. Under this approach, all capital allocation options, which include organic investment in exploration and projects, and acquisitions or divestitures to improve the quality of our portfolio, will be assessed on the basis of maximizing risk-adjusted returns. Our emphasis on free cash flow should position the Company, in the future, with the potential to return more capital to shareholders, repay debt, and make additional attractive return investments to upgrade our portfolio. We will seek to optimize the overall returns from our portfolio of assets and projects. Consequently, existing assets that do not generate target returns or long-term free cash flow will be deferred, suspended or divested to improve the overall quality of our portfolio. Our strategy and approach to capital allocation has been summed up as follows:

Returns will drive production;

Production will not drive returns.

Enterprise Risk

Risk is an inherent component of our business. Therefore, effective enterprise risk management (“ERM”) is required to support our Company vision and the successful delivery of strategic objectives. Our ERM model is focused on top-level business risks and provides a framework to:

— |  | Identify, assess and communicate inherent and residual risk;

— |  | Embed ERM responsibilities into the operating model;

— |  | Integrate risk responses into strategic priorities and business plans; and

— |  | Provide assurance to the senior leadership team (“SLT”) and relevant Committees to the Board of Directors on the effectiveness of control activities.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 15 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Our business is subject to risks in financial, regulatory, strategic and operational areas. In managing risk, management focuses on the risk factors that impact our ability to operate in a safe, profitable and responsible manner, including:

Financial and regulatory risk factors

— |  | fluctuations in the spot and forward prices of gold, copper and silver;

— |  | the impact of global financial conditions such as inflation, fluctuations in the currency markets and changes in U.S. dollar interest rates;

— |  | our liquidity profile, level of indebtedness and credit ratings;

— |  | changes in governments or the intervention of governments, or other political or economic developments in the jurisdictions in which we do or may carry on business in the future;

— |  | changing or increasing regulatory requirements, including increasing royalties and taxes, and our ability to obtain and to maintain compliance with permits and licenses necessary to operate in our industry;

— |  | our ability to maintain appropriate internal control over financial reporting and disclosure;

— |  | our ability to maintain compliance with anti-corruption standards;

— |  | our reliance on models and plans that are based on estimates, including mineral reserves and resources; and,

— |  | the organization of our African gold operations and properties under a separate listed company.

Strategic and operating risk factors

— |  | diminishing quantities or declining grades of reserves and our ability to replace mineral reserves and resources through discovery or acquisition;

— |  | our ability to integrate acquisitions or complete divestitures;

— |  | our ability to operate within joint ventures;

— |  | our ability to compete for mining properties, to obtain and maintain valid title and to obtain and maintain access to required land, water and power infrastructure;

— |  | our ability to execute development and capital projects, including managing scope, costs and timelines associated with construction, to successfully deliver expected operating and financial performance;

— |  | availability and increased cost of mining inputs, critical parts and equipment, and certain commodities, including fuel and electricity;

— |  | sequencing or processing challenges resulting in lower than expected recovery rates;

— |  | technical complexity in connection with mining or expansion activities;

— |  | unusual or unexpected ore body formations, ore dilution, varying metallurgical and other ore characteristics;

— |  | business interruption or loss due to acts of terrorism, intrusion, sabotage, work stoppage and civil disturbances;

— |  | loss due to theft of gold bullion, copper cathode or gold/copper concentrate;

— |  | permit or regulatory breaches resulting in fines, temporary shut-down or suspension of operations, or litigation;

— |  | our ability to manage security and human rights matters;

— |  | relationships with the communities in which we operate;

— |  | employee and labor relations; and,

— |  | availability and increased costs associated with labor.

In addition, there are hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining, including environmental incidents, industrial accidents, and natural phenomena such as inclement weather conditions, flooding and earthquakes or cave-ins (and the risk of inadequate insurance, or inability to obtain insurance, to cover these risks) that could result in unexpected negative impacts to future cash flows.

We have provided a description of our approach to managing our top-level business risks throughout this MD&A. For a more fulsome discussion of risks relevant to investors, see “Risk Factors” in our most recent Form 40-F/Annual Information Form on file with the SEC and Canadian provincial securities regulatory authorities.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 17 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

FULL YEAR FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS:

During 2013, gold prices averaged $1,411 per ounce, compared to $1,669 in 2012 and were volatile, falling from a high of $1,696 per ounce in January to a low of $1,181 per ounce in June. In response to the substantial decline in gold prices, we responded with significant cuts in operating costs and capital expenditures to improve cash flow without affecting our near-term production targets. During the year, we produced 7.17 million ounces at adjusted operating costs of $566 per ounce and all-in sustaining costs of $915 per ounce, which were substantially lower than our original guidance ranges of $610 to $660 per ounce and $1,000 to $1,100 per ounce, respectively. Capital expenditures were $5.0 billion in 2013, down from our original guidance range of $5.7 to $6.3 billion. We also began executing a portfolio optimization plan to divest non-core assets and develop new mine plans at our mines to improve near-term cash flow while preserving optionality for future production. The lower gold price was a significant contributor to our recognizing impairment losses of $11.5 billion (net of tax and non-controlling interest effects) ($12.7 billion pre-tax) and also our decision to temporarily suspend construction activities at Pascua-Lama. This suspension decision will postpone and reduce near-term cash outlays. In third quarter 2013, we reached an agreement to amend the terms of our Special Lease Agreement for Pueblo Viejo, which will result in additional and accelerated tax revenues to the government of the Dominican Republic, and as a result, we recognized an additional $249 million in income tax expense. Other key financial and operational highlights included:

| — |  | Net loss for 2013 was $10.4 billion (-$10.14 per share) compared to a net loss of $0.5 billion (-$0.54 per share) in the same prior year period. Adjusted net earnings for 2013 were $2.6 billion ($2.51 per share) compared to adjusted net earnings of $4.0 billion ($3.95 per share) in the same prior year period.

| — |  | Gold production for 2013 was 7.17 million ounces at adjusted operating costs of $566 per ounce, all-in sustaining costs of $915 per ounce and all-in costs of $1,282 per ounce, compared to production of 7.42 million ounces at adjusted operating costs of $563 per ounce, all-in sustaining costs of $1,014 per ounce and all-in costs of $1,404 per ounce in 2012.

| — |  | Realized gold prices in 2013 were $1,407 per ounce, compared to $1,669 in 2012.

| — |  | Copper production for 2013 was 539 million pounds at C1 cash costs of $1.92 per pound, compared to production of 468 million pounds at C1 cash cost of $2.05 per pound in 2012.

| — |  | Operating cash flow was $4.2 billion, compared to operating cash flow of $6.0 billion for 2012.

| — |  | Capital expenditures, down $1.6 billion, or 23%, over the prior year.

| — |  | Termed out $3.0 billion of debt in April 2013 and completed a $3.0 bought equity deal in November 2013, which was primarily used to repay debt.

| — |  | Completed or announced divestitures of Barrick Energy and six non-core, high-cost mines for total expected consideration of about $940 million, including cash proceeds of about $720 million

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 18 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Key Business Developments

Disciplined capital allocation framework decisions

Equity Issuance and Debt Repurchase

In November 2013, we completed a bought deal equity offering of 163.5 million common shares at a price of $18.35 per common share for net proceeds of approximately $2.9 billion. We used the net proceeds of the offering to strengthen our balance sheet and improve our long-term liquidity position by using approximately $2.6 billion of the net proceeds to redeem or repurchase outstanding short- and medium-term debt.

Divestitures

On September 30, 2013, we completed the sale of our Yilgarn South assets, which are the Granny Smith, Lawlers and Darlot mines, for total proceeds of $266 million, consisting of $135 million in cash and $131 million in Gold Fields Limited shares. As a result of this sale, we recognized a post-tax gain of $3 million ($11 million pre-tax), in third quarter 2013.

On January 31, 2014, we completed the sale of our Plutonic mine for total cash consideration of A$25 million. As at December 31, 2013, the assets and liabilities of Plutonic were written down to their realizable value, resulting in a post-tax loss of $12 million ($17 million pre-tax) and have been presented as held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet.

On January 22, 2014, we announced we had agreed to divest our Kanowna mine for total cash consideration of A$75 million, subject to certain closing adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in March 2014. Based on the expected proceeds of this transaction, we have reversed $66 million of impairment losses that we had recorded against Kanowna in second quarter 2013. As at December 31, 2013, the assets and liabilities of Kanowna have been presented as held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet.

On February 4, 2014, we announced we had agreed to divest our minority interest in the Marigold mine for total cash consideration of $86 million, subject to certain closing adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in April 2014. As at December 31, 2013, the assets and liabilities of Marigold were written down to their estimated realizable value, resulting in a post-tax loss of $39 million ($60 million pre-tax) and have been presented as held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet.

In July 2013, we completed the sale of our oil & gas business segment for consideration of $435 million, consisting of

$387 million in cash and a future royalty valued at $48 million. As a result of the sale, we recognized a post-tax loss of $466 million ($519 million pre-tax), including $90 million related to goodwill, in 2013, representing the difference between the net proceeds and our carrying value.

Closure of Pierina

As of August 2013, we decided to initiate closure of our Pierina mine in Peru. Primarily as a result of the accelerated closure, we recorded a $134 million increase to our provision for rehabilitation through the income statement in 2013.

Pascua-Lama

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 million1 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.

Pueblo Viejo

In third quarter 2013, Pueblo Viejo Dominicana Corporation (“PVDC”), our joint arrangement with Goldcorp Inc., reached an agreement with the Government of the Dominican Republic concerning amendments to the Pueblo Viejo SLA. The key terms of the amendments include:

| — |  | Elimination of a 10 percent return embedded in the initial capital investment for the purposes of the net profits interest (“NPI”) calculation;

1 | About 25%, related to water management systems and completion of minor scopes of work in Argentina and Chile, is expected to be capitalized. Actual expenditures will be dependent on a number of factors, including environmental and regulatory requirements.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 19 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

| — |  | An extension to the period over which PVDC may recover its capital investment;

| — |  | A delay of application of NPI deductions;

| — |  | A reduction in tax depreciation rates; and

| — |  | A graduated minimum tax was established.

The graduated tax rate will be adjusted up or down based on future metal prices. The agreement also includes the following broad parameters consistent with the previous terms of the SLA:

| — |  | Corporate income tax rate of 25 percent

| — |  | Net smelter royalty (“NSR”) of 3.2 percent

| — |  | NPI of 28.75 percent.

Gold Reserves and Mineral Resources update 2

Barrick calculated its reserves for 2013 using a 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 ounces 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.

The 26% decline in reserves breaks down as following (approximations):

| — |  | 13% - lower 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.

2 | For a breakdown of reserves and resources by category and additional information relating to reserves and resources, see pages 155 to 160 of this Financial Report.

Replacing gold reserves depleted by production year over year is necessary in order to maintain production over the long term. If depletion of reserves exceeds discoveries over the long term, then we may not be able to sustain gold production levels. Reserves can be replaced by expanding known ore bodies, acquiring mines or properties or discovering new deposits. Once a site with gold mineralization is discovered, it takes many years from the initial phases of drilling until production is possible, during which time the economic feasibility of production may change. Substantial expenditures are required to establish proven and probable reserves and to permit and construct mining and processing facilities.

Corporate governance and management update

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. Donald Carty and Robert Franklin, who joined Barrick’s Board following the acquisition of Placer Dome, resigned as Directors of Barrick in December. 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.

We also announced we 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.

In January 2014, we appointed Jim Gowans as Chief Operating Officer in December 2013, an experienced executive who brings four decades of global mining operations experience to Barrick.

1 | Figures include amounts relating to discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2013.

2 | Guidance for gold production reflects Barrick’s equity share of production from ABG (73.9%) and Pueblo Viejo (60%).

3 | Cost of sales applicable to gold includes depreciation expense and cost of sales applicable to the non-controlling equity interest in ABG and Pueblo Viejo. Cost of sales guidance does not include proceeds from by-product metal sales, whereas guidance for adjusted operating costs does reflect these items.

4 | Cost of sales applicable to copper includes depreciation expense.

5 | In 2013 we have amended the presentation of corporate administration to include certain general and administrative expenditures related to management of our operating unit offices, which were previously classified within other expense. The updated presentation reflects the structure in which Barrick is now organized and includes costs related to the oversight and governance of the company. As a result of the amended presentation, general and administrative expenses for 2013 now include corporate administration costs of $168 million (2013 guidance: $160-$180 million), operating unit administration costs of $209 million and other departmental overhead costs previously included within other expense of $25 million.

6 | Other expense is expected to be lower in 2014 as 2013 costs include expenses totaling approximately $750 million that were excluded from our definition of adjusted net earnings in 2013, primarily project care and maintenance and demobilization costs at Pascua-Lama and Jabal Sayid, foreign currency translation losses on working capital balances and the effect of discount rate changes on environmental provisions at closed sites which were not reflected in our 2013 budget as they were unanticipated. Our 2014 other expense guidance range of $475-$525 includes approximately $250 million in project care and maintenance costs at Pascua-Lama and Jabal Sayid, but excludes amounts attributable to foreign currency translation losses on working capital balances, which are dependent on movements in foreign exchange rates.

7 | 2013 finance costs include a $90M loss on debt extinguishment arising from the debt repurchase that was excluded from our definition of adjusted net earnings.

8 | Beginning in 2014, we have amended the presentation of minesite sustaining capital expenditures to include capital spending required to maintain current planned production levels at our operating sites, including minesite development expenditures that were previously categorized separately as mine development, which includes capitalized production phase stripping costs at our open pit mines, underground mine development and exploration and evaluation expenditures that meet our criteria for capitalization. In 2013, minesite sustaining capital expenditures were $1,102 million (2013 guidance: $1,000-$1,100) and mine development capital expenditures were $1,316 million (2013 guidance: $1,100 - $1,200). Total minesite sustaining capital expenditures came in just above the top end of our guidance range, primarily due to the reclassification of certain expenditures from minesite expansion to minesite sustaining in order to conform to the WGC definition of sustaining capital.

9 | Our effective income tax rate on ordinary income is expected to be higher in 2014, primarily due to the full year impact of the Pueblo Viejo SLA amendment which was substantively enacted in Q4 2013, as well as certain expenditures with no offsetting tax deductions in 2014, primarily at our Pascua-Lama project.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 21 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

2014 Guidance Analysis

We prepare estimates of future production based on mine plans that reflect the expected method by which we will mine reserves at each site. Actual gold and copper production may vary from these estimates due to a number of operational risk factors, including whether the volume and/or grade of ore mined differs from estimates, changing mining rates, and/or short-term mining conditions that require different sequential development of ore bodies or mining in different areas of the mine. Mining rates are also impacted by various non-operating risks and operating risks and hazards inherent at each operation, including those described on page 15.

We prepare estimates of cost of sales, adjusted operating costs and all-in sustaining costs based on expected costs associated with mine plans that reflect the expected method by which we will mine reserves at each site. Cost of sales, adjusted operating costs and all-in sustaining costs per ounce, C1 cash costs, and C3 fully allocated costs are also affected by ore metallurgy that impacts gold and copper recovery rates, labor costs, the cost of mining supplies and services, foreign currency exchange rates and the accounting for stripping costs incurred during the production phase of the mine. In the normal course of our operations, we manage these risks to mitigate, where economically feasible, the effect these risks have on our operating results.

Consolidated Guidance

We expect 2014 gold production to be about 6.0 to 6.5 million ounces. Our 2014 gold production is expected to be lower than 2013 as a result of the following:

| — |  | Sale of Yilgarn South sites and the Plutonic mine and the announced sales of Kanowna and Marigold, which are anticipated to close in March and April 2014, respectively (2013 production of about 730 thousand ounces in the aggregate);

| — |  | Lower production at Cortez (2013 production of 1.337 million ounces); and

| — |  | The cessation of mining activity at our Pierina mine in Peru (2013 production of 97 thousand ounces).

These decreases are expected to be partially offset by an increase in production at Pueblo Viejo as the site achieves full ramp-up in 2014, and an increase in production at Veladero.

Cost of sales applicable to gold is expected to be in the range of $5.9 to $6.2 billion, which is in line with the $6.1 billion in 2013, primarily due to the impact of an increase

in tons processed on cost of sales as compared to the prior year, offset by the impact of the disposition of the Yilgarn South sites and Plutonic and the expected disposition of Kanowna and Marigold.

Adjusted operating costs are expected to be in the range of $590 to $640 per ounce, up from $566 per ounce in 2013. The increase in adjusted operating costs per ounce is primarily due to the decrease in production and sales volumes, particularly at Cortez, which has a corresponding negative impact on unit production costs.

All-in sustaining costs are expected to be in the range of $920 to $980 per ounce for gold, up slightly from $915 per ounce in 2013, primarily due to the increase in adjusted operating costs per ounce sold from $566 per ounce to our expected range of $590 to $640 per ounce, partially offset by a decrease in minesite sustaining capital expenditures due to the completion of significant production phase stripping activities at Porgera, Bald Mountain, Cowal and ABG in 2013.

We expect to incur approximately $200 to $240 million of Exploration and Evaluation (“E&E”) expenditures in 2014. E&E spend primarily relates to ongoing programs focusing on near-term resource additions and conversion at our existing mines as well as support for early stage exploration in our operating districts and emerging areas in order to generate quality projects for future years. We expect to capitalize about 15% of our E&E expenditures in 2014.

Geographically we expect approximately 50% of E&E expenditures to occur in North America, the majority of which are related to our Goldrush project in Nevada, combined with other ongoing programs in Nevada. We expect approximately 25% of E&E expenditures to occur in South America, 10% in Australia Pacific and the balance incurred by ABG.

Finance costs primarily represent interest expense on long-term debt. We expect higher finance costs in 2014 as a result of the cessation of capitalizing interest on Pascua-Lama in fourth quarter 2013 as a result of our decision to temporarily suspend the project. Consequently, we do not expect to capitalize significant interest costs in 2014.

Total capital expenditures for 2014 are expected to be in the range of $2.4 to $2.7 billion, compared to $5.0 billion in 2013. The expected decrease primarily relates to lower project capital expenditures as a result of our decision to temporarily suspend construction activities at Pascua- Lama, combined

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 22 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

with lower minesite sustaining and mine expansion capital expenditures.

Minesite sustaining capital expenditures reflect the capital spending required to support current planned production levels and which do not meet our definition of non-sustaining capital. This includes capitalized production phase stripping costs at our open pit mines, underground mine development and E&E expenditures that meet our criteria for capitalization. Minesite sustaining capital expenditures are expected to decrease from 2013 expenditure levels of $2,418 million to a range of about $2,000 to $2,200 million, mainly due to the completion of significant production phase stripping activities at Porgera, Bald Mountain, Cowal and ABG in 2013 and due to the recent sales of Yilgarn South sites and Plutonic, and the announced sales of Kanowna and Marigold (2013 minesite sustaining capital expenditures of $145 million in the aggregate).

Minesite expansion capital expenditures includes non-sustaining capital expenditures at new projects and existing operations that are related to discrete projects that significantly increases the net present value of the mine and are not related to current production activity. Expansion capital expenditures are expected to decrease from 2013 expenditure levels of $468 million to a range of about $300 to $375 million. 2014 expansion expenditures primarily relate to construction of the Goldstrike thiosulfate technology project, construction of the CIL plant at Bulyanhulu, which is expected to be completed in May, and feasibility and development expenditures related to the Cortez Hills Lower Zone expansion, which is expected to extend the mine life by up to 7 years.

Projects capital expenditures reflect capital expenditures related to the initial construction of the project and include all of the expenditures required to bring the project into operation and achieve commercial production levels. In 2014, we expect our share of project capital costs to be in the range of $100 to $125 million, which is a decrease from project capital costs of $2,114 million in 2013 primarily as a result of our decision to temporarily suspend construction activities at Pascua-Lama in 2013.

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. Factors impacting our 2014 income tax rate include the following:

| i) | Pueblo Viejo is expected to represent a significant portion of overall taxable income in 2014 and its tax rate is expected to be just over 50% following the amendments to the Special Lease Agreement in 2013. This compares to an average rate of just over 35% for Barrick’s other operating mines.

| ii) | Barrick expects to incur $400-$500 million in expenses with no offsetting tax deductions primarily attributable to Pascua-Lama, Jabal Sayid and Porgera. Such expenses, and their impact on the effective income tax rate, are expected to be significantly less after 2014. The company may also be able to offset these amounts against future taxable income.

The company’s effective income tax rate is highly sensitive to changes in the gold price. While the expenses for which no deferred tax assets are recognized described in (ii) do not result in additional tax expense, they do substantially reduce pre-tax income at lower gold prices and, in turn, increase the company’s expected effective income tax rate. Assuming a $1,250 per ounce gold price in 2014, the effective income tax rate is anticipated to increase to about 55%.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 24 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Cortez

At Cortez we expect 2014 gold production to be in the range of 925 to 975 thousand ounces. Cortez production is expected to be lower than 2013 mainly due to a decrease in open pit and underground ore grades as expected in the life of mine plan. The decrease in open pit grade is primarily due to the transition from the higher grade phase 3 Cortez Hills ore in 2013 to lower grade phase 4 ore in 2014. Mining in 2014 is also planned in the Pipeline and South Gap pits, which are primarily comprised of lower grade heap leach ore. The decrease in underground grade is due to a transition to a lower grade underground ore zone in 2014 and a change in the mix of ore to a higher percentage of heap leach material, which have lower recovery rates.

In 2014, we expect adjusted operating costs to be in the range of $350 to $380 per ounce, which are expected to be higher than 2013 levels primarily due to an increase in total open pit costs as a result of higher diesel consumption following the addition of 20 365-ton class haul trucks in 2013, and higher total processing costs due to a larger proportion of refractory material that is processed at Goldstrike as compared to the prior year, combined with the impact of lower production levels on unit production costs. All-in sustaining costs are expected to be in the range of $750 to $780 per ounce, which is higher than 2013 primarily due to an increase in ore tons mined and processed, and an increase in sustaining capital as a result of an increase in production phase stripping activity for Phase 4 of the Cortez Hills open pit following the completion of mining in Phase 3 in 2013.

Goldstrike

At Goldstrike we expect 2014 production to be in the range of 865 to 915 thousand ounces, which is consistent with 2013 production levels. In 2014 Goldstrike is expected to have a decrease in ore tons mined and processed as compared to the prior year, primarily due to the impact of the autoclave shutdown during the first part of the year to facilitate construction and start up of the thiosulphate technology project, and the processing of more ore tons from Cortez.

In 2014, we expect adjusted operating costs to be in the range of $600 to $640 per ounce, in line with 2013 levels. Goldstrike’s 2014 all-in sustaining costs are expected to be in the range of $920 to $950 per ounce, slightly higher than 2013 levels, mainly due to a slight increase in minesite sustaining capital as compared to the prior year. Production is anticipated

to increase to above 1.0 million ounces in 2015 with a full year of operations from the modified autoclaves.3

Pueblo Viejo

At Pueblo Viejo, we expect our equity share of 2014 gold production to be in the range of 600 to 700 thousand ounces. Pueblo Viejo production is expected to be higher than 2013 levels, mainly as a result of greater plant availability and the completion of the plant de-bottlenecking modifications and therefore more tons processed as the site achieves full ramp-up in 2014.

We expect adjusted operating costs to be in the range of $385 to $445 per ounce and all-in sustaining costs to be in the range of $510 to $610 per ounce, which are lower than 2013 levels primarily due to the ramp up to full production capacity in the first half of 2014, combined with higher silver and copper by-product credits and lower power costs as a result of cost savings following commissioning of the 215 megawatt power plant in third quarter 2013.

The production, adjusted operating cost and all-in sustaining cost guidance ranges at Pueblo Viejo are dependent on the ramp-up as well as expected grade and recovery rates. Consequently, our guidance ranges for these metrics reflect this potential variability.

Lagunas Norte

At Lagunas Norte we expect 2014 production to be in the range of 570 to 610 thousand ounces, consistent with 2013 levels, which reflects an increase in ore tons processed offset by lower processed ore grades as compared to the prior year. The increase in ore tons mined in 2014 is mainly due to an increase in fleet availability and utilization following the transfer of four trucks and one loader from our Pierina mine.

In 2014, we expect adjusted operating costs to be in the range of $390 to $430 per ounce and all-in sustaining costs to be in the range of $640 to $680 per ounce, which are expected to be higher than 2013 levels primarily due to an increase in fuel and personnel costs related to the increase in ore tons processed, higher expensed waste stripping as a result of mining more waste tons in the Alexa zone of the pit, and additional processing costs due to an increase in run of mine tons placed on the leach pad combined with a full year of operation from the CIC plant in 2014. Higher tons processed require increased

3 Actual results will vary depending on how the ramp up progresses.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 25 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

amounts of power and reagents as compared to the prior year.

Veladero

At Veladero, we expect 2014 production to be in the range of 650 to 700 thousand ounces. Veladero production is expected to be higher than 2013 levels as a result of an increase in expected recovery of ounces placed on the leach pad, combined with higher expected ore grades from the Argenta and Filo Federico pits in 2014.

In 2014, we expect adjusted operating costs to be in the range of $620 to $670 per ounce and all-in sustaining costs to be in the range of $940 to $990 per ounce, which are expected to be higher than 2013 levels mainly due to a decrease in silver by-product credits following completion of mining in the Amable pit in 2013, which has significantly higher silver grades than the Federico pit that will be the primary source of ore in 2014. Operating costs at Veladero are also highly sensitive to local inflation and the foreign exchange rate of the Argentine peso. In early 2014, the peso has depreciated by about 20% compared to the US dollar. We have assumed an average ARS:USD exchange rate of 8.5:1 for the purposes of preparing our adjusted operating cost and all-in sustaining cost guidance for 2014.

The mine continues to be subject to restrictions that affect the amount of leach solution. We are in discussions with regulatory authorities with respect to permit amendments to reflect the current circumstances and to allow operation of the leach pad in alignment with permit requirements. Failure to obtain permit amendments in a timely manner would have an increasing impact on 2014 production and potentially on the relationship with Instituto Provincial de Exploraciones y Explotaciones Mineras (“IPEEM”) of the Province of San Juan under the exploitation agreement governing the Company’s right to operate the mine. Our 2014 operating guidance assumes that we will receive these permit amendments as expected.

North America - Other

We expect 2014 production to be in the range of 795 to 845 thousand ounces. Production is expected to be lower than 2013 levels, mainly due to the impact of the Ruby Hill high wall failure in 2013 and expected sale of Marigold, which produced about 54 thousand ounces in 2013.

In 2014, we expect adjusted operating costs to be in the range of $780 to $805 per ounce, in line with 2013

levels, and expect all-in sustaining costs to be in the range of $1,075 to $1,100 per ounce, which is lower than 2013 levels, mainly due to lower minesite sustaining capital as compared to the prior year, as a result of the expected sale of Marigold in April 2014. Lower minesite sustaining capital is partly offset by an advance in production phase stripping activity at Bald Mountain in 2014 following the transfer of Ruby Hill equipment to Bald Mountain in fourth quarter 2013.

Australia Pacific

In Australia Pacific, we expect 2014 production to be in the range of 1,000 to 1,080 thousand ounces, which is lower than 2013 levels, mainly as a result of the sale of our Yilgarn South sites at the end of third quarter 2013, the sale of Plutonic in first quarter 2014 and the expected sale of Kanowna also in first quarter 2014, which combined produced about 680 thousand ounces in 2013 at adjusted operating costs of $756 per ounce and all-in sustaining costs of $938 per ounce.

In 2014, we expect adjusted operating costs to be in the range of $825 to $875 per ounce and all-in sustaining costs to be in the range of $1,050 to $1,100 per ounce, which are expected to be higher than 2013 levels primarily due to an increase in mining costs at Porgera due to the expensing of waste removal costs above stage 5 of the open pit, as a result of the change in mine plan to focus on the higher grade underground portion of the mine, combined with higher open pit mining costs at Cowal and KCGM as compared to the prior year.

ABG

At ABG, we expect our equity share of 2014 production to be in the range of 480 to 510 thousand ounces, which is higher than 2013 levels. We expect higher production at Bulyanhulu and Buzwagi mainly due to higher head grades as a result of mine planning changes, and commissioning of the new CIL plant at Bulyanhulu, which commences production in May, partly offset by a decrease in production at North Mara due to a reduction in planned head grade.

In 2014, we expect adjusted operating costs to be in the range of $740 to $790 per ounce, which is lower than 2013 levels, mainly due to ongoing improvements and efficiencies realized as a result of the operational review in 2013. We expect all-in sustaining costs to be in the range of $1,100 to $1,175 per ounce, which is lower than 2013 levels mainly due to a decrease in minesite sustaining capital and corporate overhead as compared to the prior year.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 26 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Copper

Copper production is expected to decrease from 539 million pounds in 2013 to be in the range of 470 to 500 million pounds in 2014, mainly due to lower production from Zaldívar. Lower production at Zaldívar is expected as a result of lower ore tons being placed on the leach pads due to lower availability of ore from the pit in 2014, in line with the mine plan, combined with lower recoveries as a result of the processing of a higher percentage of secondary sulfide material in 2014. Production at Lumwana is expected to be similar to 2013 levels.

Cost of sales applicable to copper is expected to be in the range of $1,000 to $1,200 million, which is consistent with $1,091 million in 2013. C1 cash costs are expected to be in the range of $1.90 to $2.10 per pound for copper, as compared to C1 cash costs of $1.92 per pound in 2013. C1 cash costs are expected to increase primarily due to Zaldívar as a result of the impact of lower production on unit costs. C3 fully allocated costs are expected to be in the range of $2.50 to $2.75 as compared to C3 fully allocated costs of $2.42 per pound in 2013. C3 fully allocated costs are expected to be higher than 2013 levels primarily due to the impact of higher depreciation on lower production at Zaldívar and higher depreciation at Lumwana.

Market Overview

Gold and Copper

The market prices of gold and copper are the primary drivers of our profitability and our ability to generate free cash flow for our shareholders. The prices of gold and copper are subject to volatile price movements over short periods of time and are affected by numerous industry and macroeconomic factors. Gold price volatility remained high in 2013, with the price ranging from $1,181 per ounce to $1,696 per ounce. The average market price for the year of $1,411 per ounce represented a decrease of 15% versus 2012.

The decline in the price of gold in 2013 was due in part to incremental improvements in the prospects for the U.S. economy that led to concerns about reductions in the unprecedented monetary stimulus that has been provided by the US Federal Reserve and other global central banks. These concerns led to a weakening in investor sentiment regarding gold, particularly in the Western world, that was evidenced by decreased holdings in Exchange Traded Funds (“ETFs”) of 29 million ounces. However, physical demand for jewelry and other uses, particularly in China and India, was strong and continues to be a significant driver of the overall gold market.

Going forward, we believe that gold will attract investment interest through its role as a safe haven investment, store of value and alternative to fiat currency due to concerns over geopolitical issues, sovereign debt and deficit levels, bank stability, future inflation prospects, and continuing accommodative monetary policies put in place by many of the world’s central banks. While there are risks that investor interest in gold could decrease further, we believe that the continuing uncertain macroeconomic environment, together with the limited choice of alternative safe

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 27 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

haven investments, is supportive of continued strong demand for gold.

Gold prices also continue to be influenced by long-term trends in global gold mine production and the impact of central bank gold activities. Gold production has increased in recent years with the extension of the lives of older mines due to the rising gold price. The time requirement to bring projects to the production stage and the increasing costs and risks of building a mine, including concerns of resource nationalism and lengthened permitting processes, are expected to slow the pace of new production in future years.

In the fourth year of the Central Bank Gold Agreement (“CBGA”), which ended in September 2013, the signatory members sold 5 tonnes of gold, or less than 2% of the maximum agreed amount. In addition, for the fourth consecutive year, global central banks were net buyers of gold in 2013, with the central banks of Turkey, Russia, Kazakhstan, and South Korea, among others, adding to their gold reserves.

The reserve gold holdings as a percentage of total reserves of emerging market countries, such as the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, and China), are significantly lower than other developed countries. The central banks of these developing economies hold a significant portion of their reserves in US dollar denominated government assets and, as they identify a need to diversify their portfolio and reduce their exposure to the US dollar, we believe that gold will be one of the main beneficiaries. In conjunction with the very low amount of gold sold under the CBGA quota, which is expected to continue in the current year of the agreement, the net purchases of gold by global central banks provide a strong indication that gold is viewed as a reserve asset and a de facto currency.

During 2013, London Metals Exchange (“LME”) copper prices traded in a range of $2.99 to $3.79 per pound, averaged $3.32 per pound, and closed the year at $3.35 per pound. Copper’s strength lies mainly in strong physical demand from emerging markets, especially China, which has resulted in a physical deficit in recent years. Copper prices should continue to be influenced by demand from Asia, global economic growth, the limited availability of scrap metal and production levels of mines and smelters in the future.

Utilizing option collar strategies, the Company has protected the downside on approximately half of our expected 2014 copper production at an average floor price of $3.00 per pound and can participate on the same amount up to an average price of $3.75 per pound. Our realized price on all 2014 copper production is expected to be reduced by approximately $0.02 per pound as a result of the net premium paid on option hedging strategies. Our remaining copper production is subject to market prices.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 28 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

We have provisionally priced copper sales for which final price determination versus the relevant copper index is outstanding at the balance sheet date. As at December 31, 2013, we have recorded 63 million pounds of copper sales subject to final settlement at an average provisional price of $3.34 per pound. The impact to net income before taxation of a 10% movement in the market price of copper would be approximately $21 million, holding all other variables constant.

Silver

Silver traded in a wide range of $18.23 per ounce to $32.48 per ounce in 2013, averaged $23.79 per ounce and closed the year at $19.50 per ounce. The physical silver market is currently in surplus, but investor interest continues to be price supportive and continuing global economic growth is expected to improve industrial demand.

Silver prices do not significantly impact our current operating earnings, cash flows or gold adjusted operating costs. Silver prices, however, will have a significant impact on the overall economics for our Pascua-Lama project.

During 2013, we closed out our silver hedge book, which had consisted of 65 million ounces of option collars from 2013 to 2018, for net proceeds of $190 million. $21 million of the gains related to our silver hedge book remain in other comprehensive income and will be recognized in net income on the original contract maturity dates.

Currency Exchange Rates

The results of our mining operations outside of the United States are affected by US dollar exchange rates. We have exposure to the Australian and Canadian dollars through a combination of mine operating and corporate administration costs and exposure to the Chilean peso as a result of our

Pascua-Lama project and Chilean mine operating costs. We also have exposure to the Argentinean peso through operating costs at our Veladero mine and expected future capital and operating costs at our Pascua-Lama project. In addition, we have exposure to the Papua New Guinea kina, Peruvian sol, Zambian kwacha, Tanzanian shilling and Dominican peso through mine operating and capital costs.

Fluctuations in the US dollar increase the volatility of our costs reported in US dollars, subject to protection that we have put in place through our currency hedging program. In 2013, the Australian dollar traded in a range of $0.88 to $1.06 against the US dollar, while the US dollar against the Canadian dollar and Chilean peso yielded ranges of $0.98 to $1.07 and CLP466 to CLP536, respectively.

Our currency hedge position has provided benefits to us in the form of hedge gains recorded within our operating costs when contract exchange rates are compared to prevailing market exchange rates as follows: 2013 - $268 million; 2012 - $336 million; and 2011 - $344. As a result of the gains from our currency hedging program, adjusted operating costs were reduced by $37 per ounce in 2013. Also for 2013, we recorded currency hedge gains in our corporate administration costs of $11 million (2012 - $20 million and 2011 - $24 million) and capitalized additional currency hedge gains of $14 million (2012 - $13 million and 2011 - $64 million).

Fuel

For 2013, the price of West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) crude oil traded between $86 and $112 per barrel, averaged $98 per barrel and closed the year at $98 per barrel. Concerns over global economic growth, supply and transportation issues and geopolitical tensions in certain oil producing regions combined to create volatility in the price of oil during the year.

In 2013, we recorded hedge gains in earnings of $9 million on our fuel hedge positions (2012 - $24 million gain and 2011 - $48 million gain).

US Dollar Interest Rates

Beginning in 2008, in response to the contraction of global credit markets and in an effort to spur economic activity and avoid potential deflation, the US Federal Reserve reduced its benchmark rate to between 0% and 0.25%. The benchmark was kept at this level through 2013. Throughout the year, the Federal Open Market Committee of the US Federal Reserve reiterated that the current 0% to 0.25% range for the benchmark rate would remain appropriate at least as long as the US unemployment rate remains above 6.5%, projected inflation remains below 2.5% and longer-term inflation expectations continue to be well anchored. In addition, we expect the US Federal Reserve to continue to use

monetary policy initiatives, such as purchases of agency-backed mortgage securities and longer-term Treasury securities, in an effort to keep long-term interest rates low and increase employment. We expect such initiatives to be followed by incremental increases to short-term rates once economic conditions and credit markets normalize.

At present, our interest rate exposure mainly relates to interest receipts on our cash balances ($2.4 billion at December 31, 2013); the mark-to-market value of derivative instruments; the fair value and ongoing payments under US dollar interest-rate swaps; and to the interest payments on our variable-rate debt ($1.2 billion at December 31, 2013). Currently, the amount of interest expense recorded in our consolidated statement of income is not materially impacted by changes in interest rates, because the majority of debt was issued at fixed interest rates. The relative amounts of variable-rate financial assets and liabilities may change in the future, depending on the amount of operating cash flow we generate, as well as the level of capital expenditures and our ability to borrow on favorable terms using fixed rate debt instruments.

In 2013, gold revenues were $10,670 million, down $1,894 million, or 15%, compared to the prior year. The decrease was due to lower realized gold prices and sales volumes. Copper revenues for 2013 were $1,651 million, down $38 million, or 2%, compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to lower copper realized prices, partially offset by higher sales volumes.

Realized gold prices of $1,407 per ounce were down $262 per ounce, or 16%, compared to the prior year. The decrease in realized prices reflects the 15% decline in market gold prices in 2013. Realized copper prices for 2013 were $3.39 per pound, down $0.18 per pound, or 5%, compared to the prior year due to a decline in market copper prices in 2013.

In 2013, gold production of 7.2 million ounces decreased by 3% over the prior year due to lower production across all operating sites, with the exception of Pueblo Viejo and ABG. Production of 7.2 million ounces was in line with our original guidance range of 7.0 to 7.4 million ounces.

Copper production in 2013 of 539 million pounds increased by 15% over the prior year, primarily due to higher production at Lumwana, partially offset by slightly lower production at Zaldívar. Copper production was in line with our most recent guidance range of 520 to 550 million pounds.

In 2013, cost of sales applicable to gold was $5,991 million compared to cost of sales of $5,817 million for the prior year. The increase over the prior year reflects higher depreciation, partially offset by lower direct mining costs, due to lower labour, consumables and maintenance costs, and a decrease in royalties as a result of the lower gold price.

Gold adjusted operating costs for 2013 were $566 per ounce, up $3 per ounce compared to the prior year, primarily due to the impact of lower production levels on unit production costs in 2013. Gold adjusted operating costs of $566 per ounce were below our most recent guidance range of $575 to $600 per ounce, reflecting our efforts to reduce costs in light of the current lower gold price environment. All-in sustaining costs for 2013 were $915 per ounce, down $99 per ounce, or 10%, compared to the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in general & administrative costs as well as mine development and minesite sustaining capital expenditures. All-in sustaining costs of $915 per ounce were at the lower end of our most recent guidance range of $900 to $975 per ounce.

In 2013, cost of sales applicable to copper for 2013 was $1,091, a decrease of $136 million, or 11%, compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to lower direct mining costs at Lumwana due to the termination of one of the mining contractors and lower depreciation as a result of the impairment charges recorded in fourth quarter 2012, partially offset by higher sales volumes and higher royalty expense.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 32 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

C1 cash costs for 2013 were $1.92, down $0.13 per pound, or 6%, from the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to the reduction in direct mining costs at Lumwana combined with the impact of higher production levels. C1 cash costs of $1.92 per pound were at the lower end of our most recent guidance range of $1.90 to $2.00 per pound. C3 fully allocated costs per pound for 2013 were $2.42 per pound, down $0.43 per pound, or 15%, from the prior year, primarily reflecting the effect of the above factors on C1 cash costs, together with lower depreciation expense as a result of the impairment charges recorded at Lumwana in the fourth quarter of 2012. C3 fully allocated costs of $2.42 per pound were at the lower end of our most recent guidance range of $2.40 to $2.60 per pound.

1 | Presentation amended to exclude certain general & administrative expenditures related to management of our operating unit offices, which were now classified within general & administrative expenses.

Other expense for 2013 was $878 million compared to $303 million for the prior year. The increase is primarily due to project care and maintenance costs at Jabal Sayid, demobilization and project care and maintenance costs at Pascua-Lama, an increase in currency translation losses, a loss on the extinguishment of debt and changes in the estimate of rehabilitation costs at our sites in closure.

Project care and maintenance costs were $52 million at Jabal Sayid and $65 million at Pascua-Lama due to the ramp down of construction activity at those sites in 2013. Severance and demobilization costs at Pascua-Lama were $235 million, and are primarily attributable to our decision to temporarily suspend the project in fourth quarter 2013. As a result of this decision, we accrued an estimate for contractor costs related to the ramp down of construction and severance and demobilization costs in other expense in 2013.

Currency translation losses increased by $107 million compared to the prior year primarily due to the rapid devaluation of the Argentine peso, partially offset by currency translation gains arising from fluctuations in the Australian dollar and Papua New Guinea Kina.

Changes in the estimates of rehabilitation costs at sites that are in closure increased by $61 million in 2013, particularly at Pierina, which recorded an increase in its reclamation liability of $134 million in 2013. This was partially offset by the effect of the increase in the rate applied to discount the reclamation liability. The increase in Pierina’s reclamation liability is primarily due to the accelerated closure of the mine, which resulted in anticipated future mining costs, that are only

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 33 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

recognized as incurred, being reclassified as rehabilitation costs, which are required to be accrued for when a liability exists. These costs are associated with mining activity that is necessary to stabilize the open pit. It was previously anticipated that this activity would be undertaken while the mine was still in operation.

Exploration and evaluation expense were $208 million in 2013 compared to $359 million in 2012. The decrease is primarily due to decreased global exploration expenditures, as part of our cost reduction program and the completion of several large resource definition programs.

1 | These amounts are presented on a 100 % accrued basis.

2 | Figures are restated for new accounting standards adopted in 2013.

3 | Project and expansion capital expenditures are included in our calculation of all-in costs, but not included in our calculation of all-in sustaining costs.

4 | Minesite sustaining includes capital expenditures from discontinued operations of $64 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 (2012: $128 million).

5 | For the purposes of our capital expenditures guidance, we exclude capitalized interest and non-controlling interest and it totaled $5,000 million in 2013.

Capital expenditures were $5,374 million in 2013, a decrease of $1,621 million compared to the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in sustaining capital, particularly at Cortez and Lumwana, and in project capital expenditures due to Pueblo Viejo achieving commercial production in January 2013; partially offset by an increase in minesite expansion expenditures at Goldstrike, Cortez and Bulyanhulu. Project capital expenditures at Pascua-Lama increased by $129 million, or 7%, compared to the prior year, as the

decision to temporarily suspend the project was not made until fourth quarter 2013. Capitalized interest decreased compared to the prior year, primarily due to the impact of Pueblo Viejo entering commercial production in January 2013 and due to the cessation of interest capitalization at Pascua-Lama in fourth quarter 2013.

Finance costs were $657 million in 2013 compared to $174 million in the prior year. Interest costs incurred were $796 million, up $108 million, or 16%, over the prior year. The increase in interest costs incurred reflects higher total debt levels compared to 2012. Interest capitalized decreased in 2013 by $270 million compared to 2012, primarily due to the impact of Pueblo Viejo entering commercial production in January 2013 and due to the cessation of interest capitalization at our Pascua-Lama project in fourth quarter 2013.

We also incurred a $90 million loss on debt extinguishment arising from the debt repurchase that occurred in fourth quarter 2013.

Currency Translation

Deferred tax balances are subject to remeasurement for changes in currency exchange rates each period. The most significant balances are Argentinean deferred tax liabilities. In 2013 and 2012, tax expense of $49 and $46 million respectively primarily arose from translation losses due to the weakening of the Argentinean peso against the US dollar. These losses and gains are included within deferred tax expense/recovery.

In third quarter 2013, the Pueblo Viejo Special Lease Agreement (SLA) Amendment was substantively enacted. The amendment included the following items: Elimination of a 10 percent return embedded in the initial capital investment for purposes of the net profits tax (NPI); An extension of the period over which Pueblo Viejo will recover its capital investment; A delay of application of NPI deductions; A reduction of the depreciation rates; and the establishment of a graduated minimum tax.

The tax impact of the amendment is a charge of $384 million, comprised of current tax and deferred tax expense, including $36 million of graduated minimum tax related to 2012 sales proceeds.

Non Recognition of US Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) Credits

In fourth quarter 2013, we recorded a deferred tax expense of $48 million related to US AMT credits which are not probable to be realized based on our current life of mine plans.

Tax Rate Changes

In second quarter 2012, a tax rate change was enacted in the province of Ontario, Canada, resulting in a deferred tax recovery of $11 million.

In third quarter 2012, a tax rate change was enacted in Chile, resulting in a current tax expense of $4 million and deferred tax recovery of $15 million.

Amendment in Australia

In fourth quarter 2012, amendments were made to prior year tax returns for one of our Australian consolidated tax groups, based on updated tax pool amounts from the time of the consolidation election. These amendments resulted in a current tax recovery of $44 million and a deferred tax recovery of $14 million.

Foreign Income Tax Assessment

In second quarter 2012, a foreign income tax assessment was received which resulted in a current tax recovery of $19 million.

Functional Currency Changes

In fourth quarter 2012, we received approval to prepare certain of our Papua New Guinea tax returns using US dollar functional currency effective January 1, 2012. This approval resulted in a one-time deferred tax expense of $16 million. Going forward, the material Papua New Guinea tax return will now be filed using a US dollar functional currency.

Review of Operating Segments Performance

As at the end of 2013, we reorganized our operating structure as described on page 15. Barrick’s business is now organized into ten Operating Units: five individual gold mines, two gold mine portfolios, one publicly traded gold company, a global copper business, and one project. Barrick’s Chief Operating Decision Maker, the Chief Executive Officer, reviews the operating results, assesses performance and makes capital allocation decisions for each of these business operations at an Operating Unit level. Therefore, these Operating Units are operating segments for financial reporting purposes. Segment performance is evaluated based on a number of

measures including operating income before tax, production levels and unit production costs. Income tax, corporate administration, finance income and costs, impairment charges and reversals, investment write-downs and gains/losses on non-hedge derivatives are managed on a consolidated basis and are therefore not reflected in segment income.

As a transitional measure, the following table provides a summary of 2013 results and most recent guidance ranges of certain key metrics under the previous operating segment structure.

Segment income for 2013 was $1,294 million, a decrease of $309 million, or 19%, from the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to lower realized gold price combined with an increase in cost of sales. In 2013, capital expenditures decreased by $106 million or 21% over the prior year, primarily due to a reduction in minesite sustaining capital expenditures.

Gold production of 1.34 million ounces for 2013 was 2% lower compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the processing of the lower grade ore at the autoclave and roaster facilities, partially offset by a significant increase in ore tons placed on the leach pads. Tons mined from the open pit increased, as new trucks were commissioned and mining moved back into the GAP pit while we continued to mine at Cortez Hills.

In 2013, cost of sales increased by $27 million, or 4%, over the prior year, primarily due to an increase in depreciation expense, partially offset by an increase in capitalized production phase stripping costs and a decrease in royalty expense due to lower gold prices. Adjusted operating costs were $222 per ounce, down $11 per ounce or 5% over the prior year, primarily due to lower operating costs as a result of increased capitalized production phase stripping costs.

All-in sustaining costs for 2013 decreased by $175 per ounce or 29% over the prior year due to a decrease in minesite sustaining capital expenditures, partially offset by an increase in capitalized production phase stripping costs.

Goldrush

The Goldrush project is advancing through prefeasibility, and a number of development options are being considered, including open pit mining, underground mining, or a combination of both. Drilling is currently focused on establishing confidence in the continuity of high grade portions of the deposit in support of the underground development option.

These trade-off studies will provide a better understanding of the potential of this quality asset and the economic drivers for development, which will form the basis of the prefeasibility study, which remains on track for completion in mid-2015. This district is a cornerstone of Barrick’s current and future success and is located in a mining area well provided with significant infrastructure and expertise.

Segment income for 2013 was $586 million, a decrease of $647 million or 52% from the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the lower realized gold price and lower sales volumes, partially offset by a decrease in cost of sales. In 2013, capital expenditures increased by $21 million, or 5%, over the prior year primarily due to an increase in minesite expansion capital as a result of the thiosulfate project.

Gold production of 0.89 million ounces for 2013 was 24% lower compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in the amount of ore tons processed through the autoclave, due to construction activities related to the thiosulfate project and the processing of fewer ore tons at the roaster facility due to an increase in toll ore tons processed, and lower average head grades.

In 2013, cost of sales decreased by $74 million or 10% over the prior year, primarily due to an increase in capitalized production phase stripping costs and a decrease in royalty expense due to lower gold prices.

Adjusted operating costs were $606 per ounce, up $86 per ounce, or 17%, over the prior year, primarily due to the impact of lower sales volume on unit production costs. All-in sustaining costs for 2013 increased $99 per ounce, or 12%, primarily reflecting the higher adjusted operating costs.

Goldstrike thiosulfate technology project

Construction of the thiosulfate technology project, including the retrofitting of the existing plant and the construction of new installations, continued during the year. This project allows for continued production from the autoclaves and brings forward production of about 4.0 million ounces in the mine plan. First gold production is expected in the fourth quarter 2014, with an average annual contribution of about 350 to 450 thousand of annual production in their first full five years of operation. Production is anticipated to increase to above 1.0 million ounces in 2015 with a full year of operations from the modified autoclaves. Total project costs are expected to be about $585 million.

4 | Amounts presented represent our share of expenditures for minesite expansion, minesite sustaining, mine development as well as project development on an accrual basis excluding capitalized interest.

Segment income was $424 million in 2013, the initial year of commercial production for Pueblo Viejo. Capital expenditures were lower by 82% compared to the prior year, as the majority of construction was completed by the end of 2012 and the mine achieved commercial production in January 2013.

Gold production for 2013 was 0.49 million ounces, which was lower than expected as a result of ongoing modifications and repairs to the autoclave facility. These major modifications have been completed and all four autoclaves are online after being individually tested to design capacity. The new

215 megawatt power plant was commissioned on schedule in the third quarter. The mine is now expected to reach full capacity in the first half of 2014 following completion of de-bottlenecking modifications to the lime circuit.

In 2013, cost of sales was $559 million, adjusted operating costs were $561 per ounce, and all-in sustaining costs were $735 per ounce. 2013 was the first year these metrics were reported as a result of Pueblo Viejo achieving commercial production in January 2013.

Segment income for 2013 was $548 million, a decrease of $381 million or 41% from the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the lower realized gold price combined with a decrease in sales volumes due to lower average ore grade. In 2013, capital expenditures decreased by $23 million or 14% over the prior year, primarily due the ramp-down of construction on the now commissioned carbon-in-column plant and the Phase 5 leach pad.

Gold production of 0.6 million ounces for 2013 was 20% lower compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the expected decline in ore grade, partially offset by an increased mining rate, which facilitated access to ore with improved recovery rates and enabled the stockpiling of lower recovery ore.

In 2013, cost of sales decreased by $26 million or 9% over the prior year, primarily due a reduction in royalties and employee profit sharing costs as a result of lower gold revenues.

This was partially offset by higher direct mining costs, largely due to increased wages and an increase in cyanide prices. Adjusted operating costs were $361 per ounce, up $43 per ounce or 14% over the prior year, primarily due to the impact of lower production levels on unit production costs. All-in sustaining costs for 2013 increased by $62 per ounce or 11% over the prior year due to the same factors affecting adjusted operating costs, partially offset by a decrease in minesite sustaining expenditures.

Segment income for 2013 was $306 million, a decrease of $299 million or 49% from the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the lower realized gold price combined with a decrease in sales volumes, partially offset by increased silver head grades and silver recovery rates from the Amable pit. In 2013, capital expenditures increased by $12 million or 6% over the prior year, primarily due increased minesite sustaining capital expenditures relating to a leach pad expansion.

Gold production of 0.64 million ounces for 2013 was 16% lower compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to reduced head grades from mining of Phase 3 of the Federico pit and the final phase of the Amable pit. Tons mined decreased by 6% primarily due to lower mobile equipment availability, with tons placed on the leach pad increasing by 5% due to increased primary crusher availability resulting from less maintenance downtime. Despite an increase in tons placed on the leach pad, production decreased due to restrictions associated with permit conditions that are impacting the amount of leach solution.

In 2013, cost of sales decreased by $20 million or 3% over the prior year, primarily due a reduction in royalties due to lower revenues combined with lower depreciation as a result of lower production levels and the build-up of leach pad inventory. Adjusted operating costs were $501 per ounce, up $15 per ounce or 3% over the prior year, primarily due to the impact of lower production levels, partially offset by increased silver by-product credits. All-in sustaining costs for 2013 increased by $73 per ounce or 10% over the prior year reflecting higher adjusted operating costs and an increase in minesite sustaining expenditures relating to the leach pad expansion.

The annual update to the LOM plan, which was completed in fourth quarter 2013, was significantly impacted by the lower gold price assumption as well as the effect of sustained local inflationary pressures on operating and capital costs. The new plan resulted in a reduction of reserves and LOM production as the next open pit cutback is uneconomic at current gold prices. This resulted in a significant decrease in the estimated fair value of the mine, and accordingly, we recorded an impairment loss of $300 million (post-tax) ($464 million pre-tax).

Segment income for 2013 was $281 million, a decrease of $350 million or 55% from the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the lower realized gold price combined with a decrease in sales volumes. In 2013, capital expenditures decreased by $14 million or 4% over the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in underground development expenditures at Turquoise Ridge, partially offset by increased capitalized production phase stripping at Bald Mountain and Round Mountain.

Gold production of 0.86 million ounces for 2013 was 3% lower compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to lower production at Bald Mountain and Round Mountain, partially offset by higher production at Ruby Hill and Turquoise Ridge.

Production at Bald Mountain decreased by 42% over the prior year due to a decline in ore tons placed on the leach pads as the mine went through a significant development phase in 2013.

Production at Turquoise Ridge increased by 16% over the prior year due to an increase in ore tons mined. Production at Ruby Hill increased 122% over the prior year due to increased grade as a result of a change in the mine sequencing plan, partially offset by a decrease in ore tons mined.

In 2013, cost of sales increased by $33 million or 4% over the prior year, primarily due an increase in depreciation expense, partially offset by an increase in capitalized production phase stripping expenditures at Bald Mountain and lower royalty expense at Hemlo and Bald Mountain due to lower gold prices. Adjusted operating costs were $792 per ounce, up $49 per ounce or 7% over the prior year, primarily due to the impact of lower production levels on unit production costs. All-in sustaining costs for 2013 increased by $54 per ounce or 5% over the prior year reflecting higher adjusted operating costs and an increase in capitalized production phase stripping expenditures.

Segment income for 2013 was $904 million, a decrease of $282 million or 24% from the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the lower realized gold price combined with a decrease in sales ounces, partially offset by a reduction in cost of sales. In 2013, capital expenditures decreased by $125 million or 22% over the prior year, primarily due to decreased minesite sustaining capital expenditures across all sites, partially offset by an increase in capitalized production phase stripping costs at Porgera, Cowal and KCGM.

Gold production of 1.77 million ounces for 2013 was 3% lower compared to the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the disposal of the Yilgarn South assets at the end of third quarter 2013, partially offset by higher production at Porgera and Cowal.

Production at Porgera increased by 11% over the prior year due to increased throughput and grade and as a result of fewer operational disruptions at site compared to 2012. Although production increased at Porgera, we revised the mine plan to focus on the higher grade

underground ore and, as a result, recorded a non-current asset impairment loss of $595 million (post-tax) ($746 million pre-tax) in fourth quarter 2013. Production at Cowal increased by 11% over the prior year, primarily due to the mining of higher grade ore.

In 2013, cost of sales decreased by $271 million or 14% over the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the disposal of the Yilgarn South assets combined with lower direct operating costs as a result of cost saving initiatives adopted throughout the segment, particularly with respects to power, consumables, and contract labour as well as the impact of a decrease in our effective Australian dollar exchange rate. Adjusted operating costs were $725 per ounce, down $68 per ounce or 9% over the prior year, primarily due to a reduction in cost of sales and the disposal of the Yilgarn South assets. All-in sustaining costs for 2013 decreased by $134 per ounce or 12% over the prior year, reflecting lower adjusted operating costs and a decrease in minesite sustaining capital expenditures.

Segment income for 2013 was $120 million, a decrease of $101 million or 46% from the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the lower realized gold price, partially offset by a reduction in cost of sales. In 2013, capital expenditures increased by $62 million or 19% over the prior year, primarily due to higher minesite expansion capital expenditures at Bulyanhulu related to the CIL expansion project, partially offset by lower sustaining capital expenditures across all sites.

Gold production of 0.64 million ounces (Barrick’s share 0.47 million ounces) for 2013 was 2% higher compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily due to higher production at North Mara and Buzwagi, partially offset by lower production at Bulyanhulu.

Production at North Mara increased by 33% over the prior year, mainly as a result of mining increased ore tons at higher grades due to the opening of higher grade areas of the pit due to the waste stripping program that was undertaken earlier in 2013. Production at Buzwagi increased by 9% over the prior year. The increase was mainly due to increased throughput due to improved operational efficiencies at the plant, partially offset by slightly lower grades.

Production at Bulyanhulu decreased by 16% over the prior year, primarily due to mining equipment availability issues and reduced access to stopes, which had a negative impact on tons mined. Production at Tulawaka decreased compared to the prior year as mining operations came to an end in first half of 2013.

In 2013, cost of sales decreased by $54 million or 7% over the prior year. The decrease was primarily due lower direct operating costs as a result of decreased labour and maintenance costs, and increased capitalized production phase stripping costs at Buzwagi and North Mara. Adjusted operating costs were $846 per ounce, down $112 per ounce or 12% over the prior year, reflecting the same factors impacting cost of sales, in addition to the benefit of higher production levels on unit production costs. All-in sustaining costs for 2013 decreased by $223 per ounce or 14% over the prior year, reflecting lower adjusted operating costs and a decrease in minesite sustaining capital expenditures at Bulyanhulu and at Buzwagi.

Segment income for 2013 was $485 million, an increase of $93 million or 24% over the prior year. The increase was the result of higher copper sales volumes combined with lower production costs at Lumwana, which more than offset the lower copper realized price and higher production costs at Zaldívar, as well as $52 million in project care and maintenance costs incurred at Jabal Sayid. In 2013, capital expenditures were lower by $336 million or 45% compared to the prior year, reflecting lower capital expenditures at Lumwana as development of the Chimiwungo South pit is complete and lower capital expenditures at Jabal Sayid as the process infrastructure construction is now complete.

In 2013, copper production was 539 million pounds, 15% higher than the prior year. Production at Lumwana increased by 45% primarily due to higher mill throughput and the processing of higher grade ore at higher recoveries. Production at Zaldívar decreased by 3% in 2013 mainly due to lower production from the heap leach as a result of lower sulfide recoveries.

In 2013, cost of sales were $136 million, or 11%, lower than the prior year, primarily due to lower production costs at Lumwana resulting from the termination of one of the mining contractors and lower depreciation expense as a result of the impairment charges recorded in the fourth quarter of 2012. C1 cash costs for 2013 were $1.92 per pound, down $0.13 per pound or 6% from the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to the reduction in costs at Lumwana and lower fuel and

sulfuric acid prices at Zaldívar. C3 fully allocated costs per pound for 2013 were $2.42 per pound, down $0.43 per pound or 15% from the prior year, primarily reflecting the effect of the above factors on C1 cash costs, together with the impact of lower depreciation expense at Lumwana due to the impairment loss recorded in fourth quarter 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.

Jabal Sayid

In 2013, $45 million was invested in the HCIS compliance project which includes the installation of safety and security infrastructure. While this work is progressing, the number of employees at site has been reduced to minimize costs until approval to commence operations is received. Management used the opportunity to study alternate hauling/hoisting options from the underground mine with the goal of improving LOM cash flow when it comes into production.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 45 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Once Jabal Sayid comes into production, the average annual copper output in concentrate is expected to be 100 to 130 million pounds at C1 cash costs of $1.50 to $1.70 per pound in its first full five years of operation.

Since the Company acquired its interest in the Jabal Sayid project through its acquisition of Equinox Minerals in 2011, the Deputy Ministry for Mineral Resources (“DMMR”), which oversees the mining license, has questioned whether such change in the indirect ownership of the project, as well

as previous changes in ownership, required the prior consent of DMMR. We are progressing discussions with DMMR to try to resolve this situation. Should this not be successful, alternatives such as further curtailing or suspending activities on site until a resolution is achieved, are being studied and could lead to further impairment losses on the value of the asset.

Other early stage projects

Donlin Gold

Under our disciplined capital allocation framework, we continue to monitor the long-term viability of our 50% investment in Donlin Gold. Although the Donlin Gold project contains large, long life mineral resources, with significant leverage to the price of gold, it is uncertain when or if it will be able to meet our investment criteria given the required large initial capital investment. In 2014, the majority of the expenditures will be focused on advancing the permitting of the project.

Cerro Casale

At the Cerro Casale project in Chile, of which we own 75%, approval of the Environmental Impact Assessment was received in January 2013 from the Servicio de Evaluacion Ambiental, the environmental authority of northern Chile. Cerro Casale, on a 100 percent basis, has total proven and probable gold and copper mineral reserves of 23 million ounces of gold and 5.8 billion pounds of copper. We have minimized our 2014 budget for the project, however we will continue to explore alternative development options for this project, which is located in a high potential district, as well as continuing the process of obtaining necessary right of ways.

Balance Sheet Review

Total assets were $37 billion at December 31, 2013, a decrease of $10 billion, or 21%, compared to December 31, 2012. The decrease primarily reflects impairments against the carrying value of non-current assets, including $6.0 billion (post-tax) (pre-tax $6.1 billion) against our Pascua-Lama project and $2.8 billion in goodwill impairments in our global copper, Australian Pacific, Capital Projects and African Barrick Gold segments. Our asset base is primarily comprised of non-current assets such as property, plant and equipment and goodwill, reflecting the capital intensive nature of the mining business and our history of growing through acquisitions. Other significant assets include production inventories and cash and equivalents. We typically do not carry a material accounts receivable balance, since only sales of concentrate and copper cathode have a settlement period.

Total liabilities decreased by $1.4 billion or 6% compared to December 31, 2012, largely due to a net decrease in debt of $0.9 billion.

For 2013, other comprehensive income was a loss of $508 million on an after-tax basis. The loss reflected losses of $56 million on hedge contracts designated for future periods, caused primarily by changes in currency exchange rates, copper prices, and fuel prices, reclassification adjustments totaling $398 million for gains on hedge contracts designated for 2013 (or ineffective amounts) that were transferred to earnings or PPE in conjunction with the recognition of the related hedge exposure, $74 million of losses recorded as a result of changes in the fair value of investments held during the quarter, $6 million of gains realized on sale of investments, and $93 million in losses for currency translation adjustments; partially offset by $26 million of losses transferred to earnings related impaired investments; $37 million actuarial gains on pension liability and a $56 million gain due to tax recoveries on the overall decrease in OCI.

Included in accumulated other comprehensive income at December 31, 2013 were unrealized pre-tax gains on currency, commodity and interest rate hedge contracts totaling $39 million. The balance primarily relates to currency hedge contracts that are designated against operating costs and capital expenditures, primarily over the next three years including $87 million remaining in crystallized hedge gains related to our Australian dollar contracts that were settled in the third quarter of 2012 or closed out in the second half of 2013, $21 million in crystallized hedge gains related to our silver contracts as well as $9 million in crystallized hedge gains related to our Chilean peso contracts that were settled in the second quarter of 2013. These hedge gains/losses are expected to be recorded in earnings at the same time the corresponding hedged operating costs/depreciation are recorded in earnings.

Financial Position and Liquidity

Our capital structure comprises a mix of debt and shareholders’ equity. As at December 31, 2013, our total debt was $13.1 billion (debt net of cash and equivalents was $10.7 billion) and our debt-to-equity ratio and debt-to-total capitalization ratios were 0.82:1 and 0.39:1, respectively. This compares to debt as at December 31, 2012 of $13.9 billion (debt net of cash and equivalents was $11.8 billion), and debt-to-equity and debt-to-total capitalization ratios of 0.57:1 and 0.46:1, respectively.

In 2013, we made a number of changes to our capital structure. In first quarter 2013, we drew $2.0 billion on our $4.0 billion revolving credit facility (“2012 Credit Facility”), using the proceeds to repay $1.2 billion on our $1.45 billion credit facility, which expired in April 2013. In second quarter 2013, we issued $3.0 billion of debt, using $2.0 billion of the net proceeds to repay the outstanding

balance on the 2012 Credit Facility. In fourth quarter 2013, we completed an equity offering for net proceeds of $2.9 billion, using $2.6 billion of those proceeds to redeem and repurchase outstanding debt with near-term maturities. The net effect of these transactions was to repay all amounts outstanding under our credit facilities and significantly reduce other near-term debt maturities. As a result, there is only approximately $300 million of debt maturing in the next two years and a total of approximately $1 billion due in the next four years (refer to note 18 for further details). The $4.0 billion 2012 Credit Facility was fully undrawn at year end. During fourth quarter 2013, the termination date was extended by one year such that the facility now expires in January 2019.

At current market gold and copper prices, we expect to generate negative free cash flow in 2014. This is primarily due to expected full year total capital expenditures of about $2.4 to $2.7 billion. We anticipate total cash outflows related to our Pascua-Lama project are expected to be about $700 million in 2014, including about $75 million of capital expenditures and the drawdown of amounts accrued for at the end of 2013.

As part of our disciplined capital allocation strategy, we are constantly evaluating our capital expenditures and making reductions where the risk-adjusted returns do not justify the investment. Since the beginning of 2013, we have also made divestments of non-core assets and assets that do not meet our investment criteria, such as the sale of our oil & gas business and certain of our Australian assets, for aggregate cash proceeds of approximately $565 million and we are anticipating receiving aggregate cash proceeds of approximately $153 million in connection with our announced sales of Kanowna and Marigold. In July 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized reducing the quarterly

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 48 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

dividend to $0.05 per share as a further step to improve liquidity4.

Our primary source of liquidity is our operating cash flow, which is dependent on the ability of our operations to deliver projected future cash flows. Other options to enhance liquidity include drawing the $4.0 billion available under our 2012 Credit Facility (subject to compliance with covenants and the making of certain representations and warranties, this facility is available for drawdown as a source of financing), further asset sales and issuances of debt or equity securities in the public markets or to private investors, which could be undertaken for liquidity enhancement and/or in connection with establishing a strategic partnership. Many factors, including but not limited to, general market conditions and then prevailing metals prices could impact our ability to issue securities on acceptable terms, as could our credit ratings. Moody’s and S&P rate our long-term debt Baa2 and BBB, respectively. On January 8, 2014, Moody’s announced that it had lowered its forward view for the average prices of gold and silver in 2014 and beyond to $1,100 per ounce and $18 per ounce, respectively. The rating agency had previously assumed the price of gold and silver would average $1,200 per ounce and $20 per ounce, respectively, over the next couple of years. Changes in our ratings could affect the trading prices of our securities and our cost of capital. If we were to borrow under our 2012 Credit Facility, the applicable interest rate on the amounts borrowed would be based, in part, on our credit ratings at the time. The key financial covenant in the 2012 Credit Facility (undrawn as at December 31, 2013) requires Barrick to maintain a consolidated tangible net worth (“CTNW”) of at least $3.0 billion (Barrick’s CTNW was $7.1 billion as at December 31, 2013).

Cash and equivalents and cash flow

Total cash and cash equivalents as at December 31, 2013 were $2.4 billion5. At year end, our cash position consisted of a mix of term deposits, treasury bills and money market investments. Our cash position is primarily denominated in US dollars.

Of total cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2013, $305 million was held in subsidiaries which have regulatory regulations, contractual restrictions or operate in countries where exchange controls and other legal restrictions apply

and are therefore not available for general use by the Company. In addition, $936 million of cash and equivalents is held in subsidiaries where we have determined the cash is reinvested, for the foreseeable future for the calculation of deferred income tax.

In 2013, we generated $4.2 billion in operating cash flow, compared to $6.0 billion of operating cash flow in 2012. The decrease in operating cash flow primarily reflects lower net earnings levels, primarily due to lower realized gold prices, partially offset by a decrease in income tax payments of $350 million. The most significant driver of the change in operating cash flow is market gold and copper prices. The ability of our operations to deliver projected future cash flows within the parameters of a reduced production profile, as well as future changes in gold and copper market prices, either favorable or unfavorable, will continue to have a material impact on our cash flow and liquidity as could other risk factors described on page 27. The principal uses of operating cash flow are to fund our capital expenditures, interest and dividend payments.

Cash used in investing activities amounted to $5.2 billion for 2013, a decrease of $1.8 billion compared to the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in capital expenditures. In 2013, capital expenditures on a cash basis were $5.5 billion, a decrease of $1.3 billion compared to the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to decreased sustaining capital expenditures at Cortez and Lumwana, part of our global initiatives to reduce sustaining capital, and lower project capital expenditures; partially offset by an increase in minesite expansion expenditures at Cortez, Goldstrike and Bulyanhulu.

4 | The declaration and payment of dividends is at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on the Company’s financial results, cash requirements, future prospects and other factors deemed relevant by the Board.

5 | Includes $282 million cash held at ABG, which may not be readily deployed outside ABG.

In 2013, financing activities primarily reflects net proceeds of $2.9 billion from an equity offering in fourth quarter 2013 and debt proceeds of $5.4 billion, partially offset by debt repayments of $6.4 billion and dividend payments of $508 million, resulting in a net financing cash inflow of $1.3 billion. This compares to a net financing cash inflow for 2012 of $423 million, which primarily consists of $2.0 billion in debt securities, $505 million in funding received from non-controlling interests, partially offset by $1.4 billion of debt repayments and dividend payments of $750 million.

INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. Internal control over financial reporting is a framework designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting framework includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Disclosure controls and procedures form a broader framework designed to ensure that other financial information disclosed publicly fairly presents in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented in this MD&A and Barrick’s Annual Report. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures framework includes processes designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to management by others within those entities to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Together, the internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures frameworks provide internal control over financial reporting and

disclosure. Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting and disclosure may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Further, the effectiveness of internal control is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may change.

The management of Barrick, at the direction of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report based on the framework and criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (1992) as issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, Management concluded that the company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2013.

Barrick’s annual management report on internal control over financial reporting and the integrated audit report of Barrick’s auditors for the year ended December 31, 2013 will be included in Barrick’s 2013 Annual Report and its 2013 Form 40-F/Annual Information Form on file with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and Canadian provincial securities regulatory authorities.

As described on page 15 of this report, we announced a change to our organization structure. Management will continue to monitor the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and may make modifications from time to time as considered necessary or desirable.

Until the past several quarters, our financial results reflected a trend of spot gold prices at historically elevated levels, offset by increasing gold and copper production costs, mainly caused by inflationary pressures. In recent quarters, as a result of a renewed emphasis on cost control and maximizing free cash flow, costs have decreased. Our adjusted net earnings and adjusted operating cash flow levels have fluctuated with gold and copper realized prices and production levels each quarter. In fourth quarter 2013, we recorded asset and goodwill impairment charges totaling $2.8 billion (net of tax and non-controlling interest), primarily at Pascua-Lama, Porgera, Veladero and goodwill related to our Australia Pacific segment. The net loss in second quarter 2013 reflected asset and goodwill impairment charges totaling $8.7 billion (net of tax and non-controlling interest effects), primarily at Pascua-Lama, Buzwagi, Jabal Sayid and goodwill related to our global copper, Australia Pacific and Capital Projects segments. The net loss in fourth quarter 2012 reflected impairment charges at Lumwana and goodwill related to our global copper segment totaling $4.2 billion (net of tax effects).

Fourth Quarter Results

In fourth quarter 2013, we reported a net loss and adjusted net earnings of $2,830 million and $406 million, respectively, compared to a net loss and adjusted net earnings of $3,013 million and $1,157 million, respectively, in fourth quarter 2012.

The decrease in the net loss was largely driven by the impact of the impairment charges of $2.8 billion (net of tax effects) recorded in fourth quarter 2013 compared to $4.2 billion (net of tax effects) recorded in fourth quarter 2012.

It also reflects lower realized gold and copper prices as well as decreased gold and copper sales volumes, partially offset by lower cost of sales applicable to gold and copper and lower income tax expense. The decrease in adjusted net earnings reflects the same factors affecting the net loss with the exception of impairment charges.

In fourth quarter 2013, we sold 1.83 million ounces of gold and 134 million pounds of copper, compared to 2.03 million ounces of gold and 154 million pounds of copper in fourth quarter 2012. Revenues in fourth quarter 2013 were lower than the same prior year period reflecting lower market prices for gold and copper and lower gold and copper sales volumes. In fourth quarter 2013, cost of sales was $1.81 billion, a decrease of $311 million compared to the same prior year period, reflecting lower direct mining costs and lower depreciation expense resulting from the impairment charges recorded in fourth quarter 2012. Adjusted operating costs were $573 per ounce, an increase of $26 per ounce, primarily due to lower production levels, partially offset by lower direct mining costs. C1 cash costs were $1.81 per pound for copper, a decrease of $0.12 per pound from the same prior year period due to lower direct mining costs at Lumwana.

In fourth quarter 2013, operating cash flow was $1,016 million, down 45% from the same prior year period. Adjusted operating cash flow for the fourth quarter 2013 was $1,085 million, down 44% from the same prior year period. The decrease in operating cash flow and adjusted operating cash flow primarily reflects lower realized gold price and copper prices and an increase in income tax payments, partially offset by higher net earnings.

IFRS CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Management has discussed the development and selection of our critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee has reviewed the disclosure relating to such estimates in conjunction with its review of this MD&A. The accounting policies and methods we utilize determine how we report our financial condition and results of operations, and they may require management to make estimates or rely on assumptions about matters that are inherently uncertain. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) under the historical cost convention, as modified by revaluation of certain financial assets, derivative contracts and post-retirement assets. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in note 2 of the Financial Statements. The policies applied in the Financial Statements are based on IFRSs in effect as at December 31, 2013. The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on February 12, 2014.

The Company has adopted the following new standards, along with any consequential amendments, effective January 1, 2013. These changes were made in accordance with the applicable transitional provisions and a summary of the impact of these changes is disclosed in note 2(Y) of the Financial Statements.

Future Accounting Policy Changes

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

In November 2009, the IASB issued IFRS 9 Financial Instruments as the first step in its project to replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 retains but simplifies the mixed measurement model and establishes two primary measurement categories for financial assets: amortized cost and fair value. The basis of classification depends on an entity’s business model and the contractual cash flows of the financial asset. Classification is made at the time the financial asset is initially recognized, namely when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Requirements for classification and measurement of financial liabilities were added in October 2010 and they largely carried forward existing requirements in IAS 39, except that fair value changes due to an entity’s own credit risk for liabilities designated at fair value through profit and loss would generally be recorded in OCI rather than the income statement.

IFRS 9 amends some of the requirements of IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures, including added disclosures about investments in equity instruments measured at fair value in OCI, and guidance on financial liabilities and derecognition of financial instruments. In December 2011, amendments to IFRS 7 were issued to require additional disclosures on transition from IAS 39 to IFRS 9. In November 2013, IFRS 9 was amended to include guidance on hedge accounting and to allow entities to early adopt the requirement to recognize changes in fair value attributable to changes in entity’s own credit risk, from financial liabilities designated under the fair value option, in OCI (without having to adopt the remainder of IFRS 9). In July 2013, the IASB tentatively decided to defer the mandatory effective date of IFRS 9. The IASB agreed that the mandatory effective date should no longer be annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015 but rather be left open pending the finalization of the impairment and classification and measurement requirements. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting IFRS 9 on our consolidated financial statements.

IFRIC 21 Levies

In May 2013, IASB issued IFRIC 21 Levies, which sets out the accounting for an obligation to pay a levy that is not income tax. The interpretation addresses what the obligating event is that gives rise to pay a levy and when should a liability be recognized. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting IFRIC 21 on our consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

Certain accounting estimates have been identified as being “critical” to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations because they require us to make subjective and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain; or there is a reasonable likelihood that materially different amounts could be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions and estimates.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 55 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Life of mine (“LOM”) estimates used to measure depreciation of property, plant and equipment

We depreciate our assets over their useful life, or over the remaining life of the mine (if shorter). We use the units-of-production basis (“UOP”) to depreciate the mining interest component of PP&E whereby the denominator is the expected mineral production based on our LOM plans. LOM plans are prepared based on estimates of ounces of gold/pounds of copper in proven and probable reserves and the portion of resources considered probable of economic extraction. At the end of each fiscal year, as part of our business cycle, we update our LOM plans and prepare estimates of proven and probable gold and copper mineral reserves as well as measured, indicated and inferred mineral resources for each mineral property. We prospectively revise calculations of depreciation based on these updated LOM plans. As at December 31, 2013, we have used a gold price of $1,100 per ounce to calculate our gold reserves, which is a decrease from $1,500 used as at December 31, 2012. This led to a decrease in the estimated ounces of production in our LOM plans and is the primary driver of an expected increase of about $225 million or 15% in 2014 depreciation expense related to our gold segments (refer to page 21 for per ounce 2014 guidance amounts).

Provisions for environmental rehabilitations (“PERs”)

We have an obligation to reclaim our mining properties after the minerals have been mined from the site, and have estimated the costs necessary to comply with existing reclamation standards. We recognize the fair value of a liability for a PER such as site closure and reclamation costs in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. PER can include facility decommissioning and dismantling; removal or treatment of waste materials; site and land rehabilitation, including compliance with and monitoring of environmental regulations; security and other site-related costs required to perform the rehabilitation work; and operation of equipment designed to reduce or eliminate environmental effects.

Provisions for the cost of each rehabilitation program are recognized at the time that an environmental disturbance occurs or a constructive obligation is determined. When the extent of disturbance increases over the life of an operation, the provision is increased accordingly. We record a PER in our financial statements when it is incurred and capitalize this amount as an increase in the carrying amount of the related asset. At operating mines, the increase in a PER is recorded as an adjustment to the corresponding asset carrying amount and results in a prospective increase in depreciation

expense. At closed mines, any adjustment to a PER is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of income.

PERs are measured at the expected value of the future cash flows, discounted to their present value using a current, US dollar real risk-free pre-tax discount rate. The expected future cash flows exclude the effect of inflation. The unwinding of the discount, referred to as accretion expense, is included in finance costs and results in an increase in the amount of the provision. Provisions are updated each reporting period for the effect of a change in the discount rate and foreign exchange rate when applicable, and the change in estimate is added or deducted from the related asset and depreciated prospectively over the asset’s useful life. A 1% increase in the discount rate would result in a decrease of PER by $266 million and a 1% decrease in the discount rate would result in an increase in PER by $332 million, while holding the other assumptions constant.

In the future, changes in regulations or laws or enforcement could adversely affect our operations; and any instances of non-compliance with laws or regulations that result in fines or injunctions or delays in projects, or any unforeseen environmental contamination at, or related to, our mining properties, could result in us suffering significant costs. We mitigate these risks through environmental and health and safety programs under which we monitor compliance with laws and regulations and take steps to reduce the risk of environmental contamination occurring. We maintain insurance for some environmental risks; however, for some risks, coverage cannot be purchased at a reasonable cost. Our coverage may not provide full recovery for all possible causes of loss. The principal factors that can cause expected cash flows to change are: the construction of new processing facilities; changes in the quantities of material in reserves and a corresponding change in the life of mine plan; changing ore characteristics that ultimately impact the environment; changes in water quality that impact the extent of water treatment required; and changes in laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. In general, as the end of the mine life nears, the reliability of expected cash flows increases, but earlier in the mine life, the estimation of a PER is inherently more subjective. Significant judgments and estimates are made when estimating the fair value of PERs. Expected cash flows relating to PERs could occur over periods of up to 40 years and the assessment of the extent of environmental remediation work is highly

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 56 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

subjective. Considering all of these factors that go into the determination of a PER, the fair value of PERs can materially change over time.

The amount of PERs recorded reflects the expected cost, taking into account the probability of particular scenarios. The difference between the upper end of the range of these assumptions and the lower end of the range can be significant, and consequently changes in these assumptions could have a material effect on the fair value of PERs and future earnings in a period of change.

During the year ended December 31, 2013, our PER balance decreased by $304 million, primarily due to an increase in the discount rate used to calculate the PER ($476 million) and also due to the divestiture of various sites as well as our oil and gas business that occurred in 2013 ($165 million). These decreases were offset by various increases in our PER liabilities as a result of our expanded footprint. The offset was a corresponding decrease in PP&E for our operations and a credit to other expense at our closed sites.

Accounting for impairment of non-current assets

In accordance with our accounting policy, goodwill is tested for impairment in the fourth quarter and also when there is an indicator of impairment. Non-current assets are tested for impairment when events or changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

When there is an indicator of impairment of non-current assets within an operating segment consisting of a Cash Generating Unit (“CGU”) or group of CGUs that contain goodwill, we test the non-current assets for impairment first and recognize any impairment loss on the non-current assets before testing the operating segment for any potential goodwill impairment. When there is an indicator of impairment of non-current assets within an operating segment consisting of a single CGU that contains goodwill, we test the non-current assets for impairment first and recognize any impairment loss on goodwill first and then any remaining impairment loss is applied against the non-current assets.

An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of each operating segment for goodwill testing purposes has been determined based on its estimated fair value less cost of disposal (“FVLCD”), which has been determined to be greater than the Value in Use (“VIU”) amounts. The recoverable amount for non-current asset testing is calculated using the same approach as for goodwill, however, the assessment is done at the CGU level, which is the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets. A CGU is generally an individual operating mine or development project.

2013 indicators of impairment

Second Quarter 2013

The significant decrease in our long-term gold, silver and copper price assumptions in second quarter 2013, due to declining market prices, as well as the regulatory challenges to Pascua-Lama in May 2013 and the resulting schedule delays and associated capital expenditure increases; and a significant change to the mine plan at our Pierina mine, were all considered indicators of impairment, and, accordingly, we performed an impairment assessment for every mine site and significant advanced development project. As a result of this assessment, we recorded non-current asset impairment losses of $7.1 billion after any related income tax effects, including a $5.1 billion impairment loss related to the carrying value of the PP&E at Pascua-Lama; $501 million related to the Jabal Sayid project in our copper segment; $874 million related to Buzwagi and North Mara in African Barrick Gold; $236 million related to the Kanowna, Granny Smith, Plutonic and Darlot mines in our Australia Pacific Gold segment; and $140 million related to our Pierina mine in South America.

After reflecting the above non-current asset impairment losses, we conducted goodwill impairment tests and determined that the carrying value of our Copper,

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 58 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Australia Pacific Gold, Capital Projects and African Barrick Gold segments exceeded their FVLCD, and therefore we recorded a total goodwill impairment loss of $1.7 billion. The FVLCD of our copper segment was negatively impacted by the decrease in our long-term copper price assumption in second quarter 2013. The FVLCD of our Australia Pacific Gold segment was negatively impacted by the significant decrease in second quarter 2013 in our long-term gold price assumption. The FVLCD of our Capital Projects segment was negatively impacted by the significant decrease in second quarter 2013 in our long-term gold and silver price assumptions, as well as the schedule delays and associated capital expenditure increase at our Pascua-Lama project. The FVLCD of our African Barrick Gold segment was negatively impacted by significant changes in the life of mine (“LOM”) plans in second quarter 2013 for various assets in the segment, as well as the significant decrease in our long-term gold price assumption.

Third Quarter 2013

In September 2013, we finalized an agreement with the Government of the Dominican Republic (“the Government”) concerning amendments to the SLA. The amendments will result in significant additional and accelerated tax revenues to the Government, and therefore we determined this was an indicator of impairment. Based on our assessment of the economic impact of these amendments, the carrying value of the mine was recoverable as at September 30, 2013.

Fourth Quarter 2013

In fourth quarter 2013, as described below, we identified indicators of impairment at certain of our mines, resulting in non-current asset impairment losses totaling $2.3 billion after any related income tax effects. As a result of our fourth quarter 2013 decision to temporarily suspend construction of our Pascua-Lama Project, we have recorded a further impairment loss on the project of $896 million, bringing the total impairment loss for Pascua-Lama to $6.0 billion for the full year. At our Porgera mine in Papua New Guinea, we have changed our LOM plan to focus primarily on the higher grade underground mine. The new plan resulted in a decrease in the estimated mine life from 13 to 9 years, and a decrease in the estimated FVLCD of the mine, which has resulted in an impairment loss of $595 million. At our Veladero mine in Argentina, the annual update to the LOM plan, which was completed in fourth quarter 2013, was significantly impacted by the lower gold price assumption as well as the effect of sustained local inflationary pressures on operating and capital costs. The new plan resulted in a reduction of reserves and LOM production as the next open pit cutback is

uneconomic at current gold prices. This resulted in a significant decrease in the estimated FVLCD of the mine, and accordingly, we recorded an impairment loss of $300 million (post-tax). The annual update to the LOM plan resulted in a decrease in the net present value of our Jabal Sayid project, which is the basis for estimating the project’s FVLCD, and was therefore considered an indicator of impairment. Jabal Sayid’s FVLCD was also negatively impacted by the delay in achieving first production as a result of the HCIS compliance requirements and ongoing discussions with the DMMR with respect to the transfer of ownership of the project. As a result, we recorded an impairment loss of $303 million. The annual update to the LOM plan showed a decrease in the net present value at our Round Mountain mine, which was considered to be an indicator of impairment, and we recorded an impairment loss of $51 million. At North Mara, several changes were made to the LOM plan, including a decision to defer Gokona Cut 3, while ABG finalizes a feasibility study into the alternative of mining out this reserve by underground methods. This was considered an indicator of impairment for North Mara, resulting in an impairment loss of $58 million. A wall failure at our Ruby Hill mine in Nevada was also identified as an indicator of impairment, resulting in the impairment of assets specifically related to the open pit of $33 million.

As at December 31, 2013, four of our mines, namely Plutonic, Kanowna, Marigold and Tulawaka, met the criteria as assets held for sale. Accordingly, we are required to re-measure these CGUs to the lower of carrying value and FVLCD. Using these new re-measured values, resulted in impairment losses of $12 million at Plutonic and $39 million at Marigold. Also, based on the estimated FVLCD of the expected proceeds related to the expected sale of Kanowna, we have reversed $66 million of the impairment loss recorded in second quarter 2013.

After reflecting the above non-current asset impairment losses, we conducted our annual goodwill impairment test, prior to the reorganization of our operating segments, and determined that the carrying value of our Australia Pacific segment exceeded its FVLCD and therefore we recorded a goodwill impairment loss of $551 million bringing the total impairment loss for Australia Pacific Gold goodwill to $1,200 million for the full year. After the reorganization of the operating segments, we did not identify any indicators of impairment.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 59 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

2012 indicators of impairment

In fourth quarter 2012, we prepared an updated LOM plan for Lumwana, which reflected information obtained from an extensive exploration and infill drilling program that was completed late in the fourth quarter of 2012. The new LOM plan also reflected revised operating and sustaining capital costs. In particular, unit mining costs were determined to be significantly higher than previously estimated. The significant changes in the LOM plan were considered an indicator of impairment, and, accordingly, we performed an impairment assessment for Lumwana as at the end of the 2012. As a result of this assessment, we recorded an impairment loss of $3.0 billion, related to the carrying value of the non-current assets at Lumwana in the fourth quarter of 2012.

In fourth quarter 2012, we also recorded the following impairment losses: $31 million in PP&E impairment losses related to Tulawaka in our ABG segment, primarily as a result of a decrease in the expected remaining mine life in its most recent LOM plan; $120 million related to our equity method investment in Tethyan Copper Company, which holds our interest in the Reko Diq project; and a $46 million write-down of power-related assets at our Pueblo Viejo project, based on new information with respect to the recoverable amount of these assets received in fourth quarter 2012.

Other impairment losses recorded in 2012 included: $164 million related to exploration properties, included in intangible assets, in Papua New Guinea and Saudi Arabia as a result of our decision to cease exploration activities ($140 million in Papua New Guinea in third quarter 2012 and $24 million in Saudi Arabia in fourth quarter 2012); and $84 million related to our equity method investment in Highland Gold as a result of the disposition of our equity interest in first quarter 2012.

After reflecting the above non-current asset losses, we conducted our goodwill impairment tests and determined that the carrying value of our copper segment exceeded its FVLCD, and therefore we recorded a goodwill impairment loss of $798 million. The FVLCD of our copper segment was impacted by increases in expected future operating and capital costs.

Key assumptions

The key assumptions and estimates used in determining the FVLCD are related to commodity prices, discount rates, NAV multiples for gold assets, operating costs, exchange rates and capital expenditures. In addition, assumptions related to comparable entities, market values per ounce and per pound and the inclusion of reserves and resources in market multiples calculations are used.

Gold

For the gold segments, excluding Pascua-Lama, FVLCD for each of the CGUs was determined by calculating the net present value (“NPV”) of the future cash flows expected to be generated by the mines and projects within the segments. The estimates of future cash flows were derived from the most recent LOM plans and, where the LOM plans excludes a material portion of total reserves and resources, we assign value to resources not considered in these base models. These values are then aggregated to the segment level, the level at which goodwill is tested. Based on observable market or publicly available data, including spot and forward prices and equity sell-side analyst forecasts, we make an assumption of future gold and silver prices to estimate future revenues. The future cash flows for each gold mine are discounted using a real weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”), which reflects specific market risk factors for each mine. Some gold companies trade at a market capitalization greater than the NPV of their expected cash flows. Market participants describe this as a “NAV multiple”, which represents the multiple applied to the NPV to arrive at the trading price. The NAV multiple is generally understood to take account of a variety of additional value factors such as the exploration potential of the mineral property, namely the ability to find and produce more metal than what is currently included in the LOM plan or reserve and resource estimates, and the benefit of gold price optionality. As a result, we applied a specific NAV multiple to the NPV of each CGU within each gold segment based on the NAV multiples observed in the market in recent periods and that we judged to be appropriate to the CGU.

Pascua-Lama

The fair value for Pascua-Lama was determined by considering both the NPV, determined consistent with our gold CGUs, as well as market multiples expressed as dollar per ounce of proven and probable reserves based on observed market metrics for comparable assets. Both these approaches were used, with the market approach being the primary method as the LOM for Pascua-Lama has uncertainty due to adjustments to reflect the updated estimated timeline for the project that existed at the time of the testing. The observable market multiples were adjusted, where appropriate, for country risk if the comparable asset was in a different country and any change in metal prices since the valuation date of the comparable asset.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 60 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Copper

For our Copper segment, the FVLCD for each of the CGUs was determined based on the NPV of future cash flows expected to be generated using the most recent LOM plans aggregated to the segment level. Based on observable market or publicly available data including spot and forward prices and equity sell-side analyst consensus, we make an assumption of future copper prices to estimate future revenues. The future cash flows for each copper mine were discounted using a WACC depending on the location and market risk factors for each mine. Fair value for Lumwana was also estimated by considering market multiples expressed as dollar per pound based primarily on the observed valuation metrics for comparable assets. Both these approaches were used as the LOM for Lumwana has uncertainty due to the on-going optimization program to generate additional value from the LOM. The observable market multiples were adjusted where appropriate for country risk if the comparable asset was in a different country and any change in metal prices since the valuation date of the comparable asset.

The key assumptions used in our impairment testing are summarized in the table below:

|  | Fourth Quarter 2013 |  |  | Fourth Quarter 2012 |
Gold price per oz |  |  | $1,300 |  |  |  | $1,700 |

1 | In our LOM plans we used $1,100/oz for the first 5 years and $1,300/oz thereafter.

Sensitivities

We performed a sensitivity analysis on commodity price, which is the key assumption that impacts the impairment calculations. We assumed a negative 10% change for the assumption, taking sales price from $1,300 per ounce down to $1,170 per ounce for gold, $3.25 per pound down

to $2.93 per pound for copper and $23 per ounce to $20.70 per ounce for silver, while holding all other assumptions constant. We note that this sensitivity identifies the key assets where the decrease in the sales price, in isolation, could cause the carrying value of our operating segments to exceed its recoverable amount for the purposes of the goodwill impairment test or the carrying value of any of our CGUs to exceed its recoverable amount for the purposes of the non-current asset impairment test where an indicator of impairment for the non-current asset was identified.

Should there be a significant decline in commodity prices, we would take actions to assess the implications on our life of mine plans, including the determination of reserves and resources, and the appropriate cost structure for the operating segments. The recoverable amount of the operating segments and CGUs would also be impacted by other market factors such as changes in net asset value multiples and the value per ounce/pound of comparable market entities. Based on the results of the impairment testing performed in fourth quarter 2013, the carrying value of the operating segments and CGUs that are most sensitive to the change in sales prices used in the test are:

As at December 31, 2013 |  | Carrying value |  |  | Decrease in fair value with a 10% decrease in sales price |
Copper segment1 |  |  | $ 5,299 |  |  |  | $ 1,700 |
Australia Pacific segment1 |  |  | 1,488 |  |  |  | 850 |
Cerro Casale |  |  | 1,514 |  |  |  | 1,200 |
Veladero1 |  |  | 1,009 |  |  |  | 600 |
Lumwana1 |  |  | 1,008 |  |  |  | 850 |
Jabal Sayid1 |  |  | 711 |  |  |  | 80 |
Porgera1 |  |  | 393 |  |  |  | 390 |
North Mara1 |  |  | 369 |  |  |  | 130 |
Round Mountain1 |  |  | 166 |  |  |  | 150 |

1 | These operating segments/CGUs have been impaired in either 2012 or 2013 and therefore their fair value approximates carrying value.

In addition, for our Pascua-Lama project, we have determined our valuation primarily based on a market approach. The key assumption that impacts the impairment calculations, should there be an indication of impairment for this CGU, is the value per ounce of gold and silver based on an analysis of comparable companies. We assumed a negative 10% change for the assumption of gold and silver value per ounce, while holding all other assumptions constant and, based on the results of the impairment testing performed in fourth quarter 2013 for Pascua-Lama, the fair value of the CGU would have been reduced from $1.2 billion to $1.1 billion (December 31, 2013 carrying value: $1.2 billion). We note that this

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 61 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

sensitivity identifies the decrease in the value that, in isolation, would cause the carrying value of the CGU to exceed its recoverable amount. For Pascua-Lama, this value decrease is linear to the decrease in value per ounce.

Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities

Measurement of Temporary Differences

We are periodically required to estimate the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Where applicable tax laws and regulations are either unclear or subject to varying interpretations, it is possible that changes in these estimates could occur that materially affect the amounts of deferred income tax assets and liabilities recorded in our consolidated financial statements. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities generally have a direct impact on earnings in the period of changes.

Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets

Each period, we evaluate the likelihood of whether some portion or all of each deferred tax asset will not be realized. This evaluation is based on historic and future expected levels of taxable income, the pattern and timing of reversals of taxable temporary timing differences that give rise to deferred tax liabilities, and tax planning activities. Levels of future taxable income are affected by, among other things, market gold prices, and production costs, quantities of proven and probable gold and copper reserves, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. If we determine that it is probable (a likelihood of more than 50%) that all or some portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, we do not recognize it in our financial statements. Changes in recognition of deferred tax assets are recorded as a component of income tax expense or recovery for each period. The most significant recent trend impacting expected levels of future taxable income and the amount of recognition of deferred tax assets, has been raising market gold prices. A decline in market gold prices could lead to derecognition of deferred tax assets and a corresponding increase in income tax expense.

Australia and Papua New Guinea: most of the unrecognized deferred tax assets relate to capital losses that can only be utilized if capital gains are realized, as well as to tax assets in subsidiaries that do not have any present sources of gold production or taxable income. In the event that these subsidiaries have sources of taxable income in the future, we may recognize some of the deferred tax assets.

Canada: most of the unrecognized deferred tax assets relate to tax pools which can only be utilized by income from specific sources and to capital losses that can only be utilized if capital gains are realized in the future.

US: most of the unrecognized deferred tax assets relate to AMT credits which are not probable to be utilized.

Chile and Argentina: most of the unrecognized deferred tax assets relate to Pascua-Lama tax assets, that, considering the suspension of construction activities, do not have any present sources of gold production or taxable income. In the event that there will be sources of taxable income in the future, we may recognize some or all of the deferred tax assets.

Tanzania, Barbados, Zambia, and Other: the unrecognized deferred tax assets relate to the full amount of tax assets in subsidiaries that do not have any present, or sufficient, sources of gold production or taxable income. In the event that these subsidiaries have sources of taxable income in the future, we may recognize some or all of the deferred tax assets.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Adjusted Net Earnings (Adjusted Net Earnings per Share) and Adjusted Return on Equity

Adjusted net earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes the following from net earnings:

— |  | Significant tax adjustments not related to current period earnings;

— |  | Impairment charges (reversals) related to intangibles, goodwill, property, plant and equipment, and investments;

— |  | Gains/losses and other one-time costs relating to acquisitions/dispositions;

— |  | Foreign currency translation gains/losses;

— |  | Costs related to restructuring/severance arrangements, care and maintenance and demobilization costs, and other expenses not related to current operations;

— |  | Unrealized gains/losses on non-hedge derivative instruments; and

— |  | Change in the measurement of the PER at closed sites.

Management uses this measure internally to evaluate the underlying operating performance of the Company as a whole for the reporting periods presented, and to assist with the planning and forecasting of future operating results. We believe that adjusted net earnings allows investors and analysts to better evaluate the results of the underlying business of the Company. Management believes that adjusted net earnings is a useful measure of the Company’s performance because tax adjustments not related to current period; impairment charges, gains/losses and other one-time costs relating to asset acquisitions/dispositions and business combinations; and project costs related to restructuring/severance arrangements, project care and maintenance and demobilization costs, do not reflect the underlying operating performance of our core mining business and are not necessarily indicative of future operating results. We also adjust for changes in PER discount rates relating to our closed sites as they are not related to our current operating sites and not necessarily indicative of underlying results. Furthermore, foreign currency translation gains/losses and unrealized gains/losses from non-hedge derivatives are not necessarily reflective of the underlying operating results for the reporting periods presented.

As noted, the Company uses this measure for its own internal purposes. Management’s internal budgets and forecasts and public guidance do not reflect potential impairment charges, potential gains/losses on the acquisition/disposition of assets, foreign currency translation gains/losses, or unrealized gains/losses on non-hedge derivatives. Consequently, the presentation of adjusted net earnings enables investors and analysts to better understand the underlying operating performance of our core mining business through the eyes of Management. Management periodically evaluates the components of adjusted net earnings based on an internal assessment of performance measures that are useful for evaluating the operating performance of our business segments and a review of the non-GAAP measures used by mining industry analysts and other mining companies.

We also present adjusted return on equity as a measure which is calculated by dividing adjusted net earnings by average shareholders’ equity. Management believes this to be a useful indicator of the Company’s performance. We use adjusted net earnings to calculate the adjusted return on equity as management believes it is a useful measure of the Company’s underlying operating performance of our core mining business.

Adjusted net earnings is intended to provide additional information only and does not have any standardized definition under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently. The following table reconciles these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.

Adjusted Operating Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow

Adjusted operating cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes the effect of the settlement of currency contracts, the impact of one-time costs and working capital adjustments relating to business combinations.

Management uses adjusted operating cash flow as a measure internally to evaluate the underlying operating cash flow performance of the Company as a whole for the reporting periods presented, and to assist with the planning and forecasting of future operating cash flow.

The elimination of one-time costs and working capital adjustments relating to business combinations are activities that are not reflective of the underlying capacity of our operations to generate operating cash flow and therefore this adjustment will result in a more meaningful operating cash

flow measure for investors and analysts to evaluate our performance in the period and assess our future operating cash flow-generating capability.

We have also adjusted our operating cash flow to remove the effect of the settlement of contingent consideration and non-recurring tax payments. This settlement activity and non-recurring tax payments are not reflective of the underlying capacity of our operations to generate operating cash flow on a recurring basis, and therefore this adjustment will result in a more meaningful operating cash flow measure for investors and analysts to evaluate our performance in the period and assess our future operating cash flow-generating capability.

Free cash flow is a measure which excludes our share of capital expenditures from adjusted operating cash flow.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 64 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Management believes this to be a useful indicator of the Company’s ability to operate without reliance on additional borrowing or usage of existing cash.

Adjusted operating cash flow, adjusted operating cash flow before working capital changes and free cash flow are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized definition under IFRS and

should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently. The following table reconciles these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.

Adjusted operating costs per ounce, All-in sustaining costs per ounce, All-in costs per ounce, C1 cash costs per pound and C3 fully allocated costs per pound

Beginning with our 2012 Annual Report, we adopted a non-GAAP “all-in sustaining costs per ounce” measure. This was based on the expectation that the World Gold Council (“WGC”) (a market development organization for the gold industry comprised of and funded by 18 gold mining companies from around the world, including Barrick) was developing a similar metric and that investors and industry analysts were interested in a measure that better represented the total recurring costs associated with producing gold. The WGC is not a regulatory organization. In June 2013, the WGC published its definition of “adjusted operating costs”, “all-in sustaining costs” and also a definition of “all-in costs.” Barrick voluntarily adopted the definition of these metrics starting with our second quarter 2013 MD&A.

The “all-in sustaining costs” measure is similar to our presentation in reports prior to second quarter 2013, with the exception of the classification of sustaining capital. In our previous calculation, certain capital expenditures were presented as mine expansion projects, whereas they meet the definition of sustaining capital expenditures under the WGC definition, and therefore these expenditures have been reclassified as sustaining capital expenditures.

Our “all-in costs” measure starts with “all-in sustaining costs” and adds additional costs which reflect the varying costs of producing gold over the life-cycle of a mine, including: non-sustaining capital expenditures (capital expenditures at new projects and capital expenditures at existing operations related to projects that significantly increase the net present value of the mine and are not related to current production) and other non-sustaining costs (primarily exploration and evaluation (“E&E”) costs, community relations costs and general and administrative costs that are not associated with current operations). This definition recognizes that there are different costs associated with the life-cycle of a mine, and that it is therefore appropriate to distinguish between sustaining and non-sustaining costs.

We believe that our use of “all-in sustaining costs” and “all-in costs” will assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders of Barrick in understanding the costs associated with producing gold, understanding the economics of gold mining, assessing our operating performance and also our ability to generate free cash flow from current operations and to generate free cash flow on an overall Company basis. Due to

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 65 |  | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

the capital intensive nature of the industry and the long useful lives over which these items are depreciated, there can be a significant timing difference between net earnings calculated in accordance with IFRS and the amount of free cash flow that is being generated by a mine. In the current market environment for gold mining equities, many investors and analysts are more focused on the ability of gold mining companies to generate free cash flow from current operations, and consequently we believe these measures are useful non-GAAP operating metrics and supplement our IFRS disclosures. These measures are not representative of all of our cash expenditures as they do not include income tax payments, interest costs or dividend payments. These measures do not include depreciation or amortization. “All-in sustaining costs” and “all-in costs” are intended to provide additional information only and do not have standardized definitions under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. These measures are not equivalent to net income or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Although the WGC has published a standardized definition, other companies may calculate these measures differently.

Starting in our second quarter 2013 MD&A, the non-GAAP measure “total cash costs” was renamed “adjusted operating costs” in order to conform with the WGC definition of the comparable measure. The manner in which this measure is calculated has not been changed.

Beginning in our second quarter 2013 MD&A, in addition to presenting these metrics on a by-product basis, we have calculated these metrics on a co-product basis. Our co-product metrics remove the impact of other metal sales that are produced as a byproduct of our gold production from cost per ounce calculations, but does not reflect a reduction in costs for costs associated with other metal sales.

We believe that C1 cash costs per pound enables investors to better understand the performance of our global copper segment in comparison to other copper producers who present results in a similar basis. C1 cash costs per pound excludes royalties and non-routine charges as they are not direct production costs. C3 fully allocated costs per pound include C1 cash costs, depreciation, royalties, exploration and evaluation expense, administration expense and non-routine charges.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, which excludes the following from net earnings:

— |  | Income tax expense;

— |  | Finance costs;

— |  | Finance income; and

— |  | Depreciation.

Management believes that EBITDA is a valuable indicator of the Company’s ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flow to: fund working capital needs, service debt obligations, and fund capital expenditures. Management uses EBITDA for this purpose. EBITDA is also frequently used by investors and analysts for valuation purposes whereby EBITDA is multiplied by a factor or “EBITDA multiple” that is based on an observed or inferred relationship between EBITDA and market values to determine the approximate total enterprise value of a company.

Adjusted EBITDA removes the effect of “impairment charges”. These charges are not reflective of our ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flow

and therefore this adjustment will result in a more meaningful valuation measure for investors and analysts to evaluate our performance in the period and assess our future ability to generate liquidity.

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are intended to provide additional information to investors and analysts and do not have any standardized definition under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA exclude the impact of cash costs of financing activities and taxes, and the effects of changes in operating working capital balances, and therefore is not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA differently.

The following table provides a reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to net earnings.

Realized Prices

Realized price is a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes from sales:

— |  | Unrealized gains and losses on non-hedge derivative contracts;

— |  | Unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on provisional pricing from copper and gold sales contracts;

— |  | Sales attributable to ore purchase arrangements; and

— |  | Export duties.

This measure is intended to enable management to better understand the price realized in each reporting period for gold and copper sales because unrealized mark-to-market value of non-hedge gold and copper derivatives are subject to change each period due to changes in market factors such as market and forward gold and copper prices so that prices ultimately realized may differ from those recorded. The exclusion of such unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses from the presentation of this performance measure enables investors to understand performance based on the realized proceeds of selling gold and copper production.

The gains and losses on non-hedge derivatives and receivable balances relate to instruments/balances that mature in future periods, at which time the gains and

losses will become realized. The amounts of these gains and losses reflect fair values based on market valuation assumptions at the end of each period and do not necessarily represent the amounts that will become realized on maturity. We also exclude export duties that are paid upon sale and netted against revenues. We believe this provides investors and analysts with a more accurate measure with which to compare to market gold prices and to assess our gold sales performance. For those reasons, management believes that this measure provides a more accurate reflection of our past performance and is a better indicator of its expected performance in future periods.

The realized price measure is intended to provide additional information, and does not have any standardized definition under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The measure is not necessarily indicative of sales as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate this measure differently. The following table reconciles realized prices to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 75 |  | MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

February 12, 2014

Independent Auditor’s Report

To the Shareholders of

Barrick Gold Corporation

We have completed integrated audits of Barrick Gold Corporation’s 2013 and 2012 consolidated financial statements and its internal control over financial reporting as at December 31, 2013. Our opinions, based on our audits are presented below.

Report on the consolidated financial statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Barrick Gold Corporation, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as at December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012 and the consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flow and changes in equity for the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 and the related notes.

Management’s responsibility for the consolidated financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. Canadian generally accepted auditing standards also require that we comply with ethical requirements.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence, on a test basis, about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting principles and policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the consolidated financial statements.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Barrick Gold Corporation as at December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.

Emphasis of matter

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, on January 1, 2013, the entity adopted new accounting guidance, International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee Interpretation 20,

Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Report on internal control over financial reporting

We have also audited Barrick Gold Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as at December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992), issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

Management’s responsibility for internal control over financial reporting

Management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Auditor’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

An audit of internal control over financial reporting includes obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we consider necessary in the circumstances.

We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our audit opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Definition of internal control over financial reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

2

A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Inherent limitations

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Opinion

In our opinion, Barrick Gold Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as at December 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (1992) issued by COSO.

BARRICK YEAR-END 2013 |  | 83 |  | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Barrick Gold Corporation. Tabular dollar amounts in millions of United States dollars, unless otherwise shown. References to A$, ARS, C$, CLP, EUR, GBP, JPY, PGK, TZS, ZAR, and ZMW are to Australian dollars, Argentinean pesos, Canadian dollars, Chilean pesos, Euros, British pound sterling, Japanese yen, Papua New Guinea kina, Tanzanian shillings, South African rand, and Zambian kwacha, respectively.

1 > CORPORATE INFORMATION

Barrick Gold Corporation (“Barrick” or the “Company”) is a corporation governed by the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). The Company’s head and registered office is located at Brookfield Place, TD Canada Trust Tower, 161 Bay Street, Suite 3700, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2S1. We are principally engaged in the production and sale of gold and copper, as well as related activities such as exploration and mine development. Our producing gold mines are concentrated in seven operating units; Goldstrike, Cortez, Pueblo Viejo, Lagunas Norte, Veladero, North America – Other and Australia Pacific. We also hold a 73.9% equity interest in African Barrick Gold plc (“ABG”), a company listed on the London Stock Exchange that owns gold mines and exploration properties in Africa. Our Copper business unit contains producing copper mines located in Chile and Zambia and a mine under construction located in Saudi Arabia. We also have one project located in South America. We sell our gold and copper production into the world market.

2 > SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A) | Statement of Compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) under the historical cost convention, as modified by revaluation of derivative contracts and certain financial assets. Accounting policies are consistently applied to all years presented, unless otherwise stated. Certain items have been reclassified in the current year. The prior periods have been restated to reflect the change in presentation. These consolidated financial statements were approved for issuance by the Board of Directors on February 12, 2014.

B) | Basis of Preparation

Subsidiaries

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Barrick and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances, transactions, income and expenses, and profits or losses have been eliminated on consolidation. We consolidate subsidiaries where we have the ability to exercise control. Control of an investee is defined to exist when we are exposed to variable returns from our involvement with the investee and have the ability to affect those returns through our power over the investee. Specifically, we control an investee if, and only if, we have all of the following: power over the investee (i.e., existing rights that give us the current ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee); exposure, or rights, to variable returns from our involvement with the investee; and the ability to use our power over the investee to affect its returns. For non wholly-owned, controlled subsidiaries, the net assets attributable to outside equity shareholders are presented as “non-controlling interests” in the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet. Profit for the period that is attributable to non-controlling interests is calculated based on the ownership of the minority shareholders in the subsidiary.

Joint Arrangements

A joint arrangement is defined as one over which two or more parties have joint control, which is the contractually agreed sharing of control over an arrangement. This exists only when the decisions about the relevant activities (being those that significantly affect the returns of the arrangement) require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. There are two types of joint arrangements, joint operations (“JO”) and joint ventures (“JV”).

A JO is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement. In relation to our interests in joint operations, we recognize our share of any assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the JO.

A JV is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Our investment in the JV is accounted for using the equity method.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 84 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On acquisition, an equity method investment is initially recognized at cost. The carrying amount of equity method investments includes goodwill identified on acquisition, net of any accumulated impairment losses. The carrying amount is adjusted by our share of post-acquisition net income or loss, depreciation, amortization or impairment of the fair value adjustments made at the date of acquisition, dividends, cash contributions and our share of post-acquisition movements in Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”).

Associates

An associate is an entity over which the investor has significant influence but not control and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint arrangement. Significant influence is presumed to exist where the Company has between 20% and 50% of the voting rights, but can also arise where the Company has less than 20% if we have the power to be actively involved and influential in policy decisions affecting the entity. Our share of the net assets and net income or loss is accounted for in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting.

Outlined below is information related to our joint arrangements and entities other than 100% owned Barrick subsidiaries at December 31, 2013:

|  | Place of business |  | Entity type |  | Economic interest1 |  | Method2
Marigold Mine3 |  | United States |  | JO |  | 33% |  | Our share

Donlin Gold Project |  | United States |  | JO |  | 50% |  | Our share
Kabanga Project5 |  | Tanzania |  | JV |  | 50% |  | Equity Method

1 | Unless otherwise noted, all of our joint arrangements are funded by contributions made by their partners in proportion to their economic interest.

2 | For our JOs, we recognize our share of any assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the JO.

3 | We have joint control given that decisions about relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties to the joint operation.

4 | We consolidate our interests in Pueblo Viejo, Cerro Casale and ABG and record a non-controlling interest for the 40%, 25% and 26.1%, respectively, that we do not own.

5 | Our JV is an early stage exploration project and, as such, does not have any significant assets, liabilities, income, contractual commitments or contingencies. Expenses are recognized through our equity pick-up (loss). Refer to note 15 for further details.

C) | Business Combinations

On the acquisition of a business, the acquisition method of accounting is used, whereby the purchase consideration is allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities on the basis of fair value at the date of acquisition. Provisional fair values allocated at a reporting date are finalized as soon as the relevant information is available, within a period not to exceed twelve months from the acquisition date with retroactive restatement of the impact of adjustments to those provisional fair values effective as at the acquisition date. Incremental costs related to acquisitions are expensed as incurred.

When the amount of purchase consideration is contingent on future events, the initial cost of the acquisition recorded includes an estimate of the fair value of the contingent amounts expected to be payable in the future. When the fair value of contingent consideration as at the date of acquisition is finalized before the purchase price allocation

is finalized, the adjustment is allocated to the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired. Subsequent changes to the estimated fair value of contingent consideration are recorded in the consolidated statement of income.

When the cost of the acquisition exceeds the fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired, the difference is recorded as goodwill. If the fair value attributable to Barrick’s share of the identifiable net assets exceeds the cost of acquisition, the difference is recognized as a gain in the consolidated statement of income.

Non-controlling interests represent the fair value of net assets in subsidiaries, as at the date of acquisition, that are not held by Barrick and are presented in the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet.

When control of a subsidiary is acquired in stages, its carrying value prior to the acquisition of control is

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 85 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

compared with the fair value of the identifiable net assets at that date. If fair value is greater than/less than carrying value, gain/loss is recorded in the consolidated statement of income.

D) | Non-current assets and disposal groups held for sale and Discontinued Operations

Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as assets held for sale (“HFS”) if it is highly probably that they will be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use. They are recorded at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less cost of disposal. Impairment losses on initial classification as HFS and subsequent gains and losses on re measurement are recognized in the income statement. Once classified as held-for sale, property, plant and equipment are no longer amortized. The assets and liabilities are presented as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet when the sale is highly probable, the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition and management is committed to the sale, which should be expected to be completed within one year from the date of classification. Results of operations and any gain or loss from disposal are excluded from income before finance items and income taxes and are reported separately as income/loss from discontinued operations.

A discontinued operation is a component of the Company that can be clearly distinguished from the rest of the Company, both operationally and for financial reporting purposes, and is expected to be recovered primarily through sale rather than continuing use.

E) | Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of the Company, for each subsidiary of the Company, and for joint arrangements and associates, is the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates. The functional currency of all of our operations is the US dollar. We translate non-US dollar balances for these operations into US dollars as follows:

— |  | Property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”), intangible assets and equity method investments using the rates at the time of acquisition;

— |  | Available-for-sale securities using the closing exchange rate as at the balance sheet date with translation gains and losses recorded in OCI;

— |  | Deferred tax assets and liabilities using the closing exchange rate as at the balance sheet date with translation gains and losses recorded in income tax expense;

— |  | Other assets and liabilities using the closing exchange rate as at the balance sheet date with translation gains and losses recorded in other income/expense; and

— |  | Income and expenses using the average exchange rate for the period, except for expenses that relate to non-monetary assets and liabilities measured at historical rates, which are translated using the same historical rate as the associated non-monetary assets and liabilities.

F) | Revenue Recognition

We record revenue when evidence exists that all of the following criteria are met:

— |  | The significant risks and rewards of ownership of the product have been transferred to the buyer;

— |  | Neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership, nor effective control over the goods sold, has been retained;

— |  | The amount of revenue can be reliably measured;

— |  | It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the sale will flow to us; and

— |  | The costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the sale can be reliably measured.

These conditions are generally satisfied when title passes to the customer.

Gold Bullion Sales

Gold bullion is sold primarily in the London spot market. The sales price is fixed at the delivery date based on the gold spot price. Generally, we record revenue from gold bullion sales at the time of physical delivery, which is also the date that title to the gold passes.

Concentrate Sales

Under the terms of concentrate sales contracts with independent smelting companies, gold and copper sales prices are provisionally set on a specified future date after shipment based on market prices. We record revenues under these contracts at the time of shipment, which is also when the risk and rewards of ownership pass to the smelting companies, using forward market gold and copper prices on the expected date that final sales prices will be determined. Variations between the price recorded at the shipment date and the actual final price set under the smelting contracts are caused by changes in market gold and copper prices, which result in the existence of an embedded derivative in accounts receivable. The embedded derivative is recorded at fair value each period until final settlement occurs, with changes in fair value classified as provisional price adjustments and included in revenue in the consolidated statement of income.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 86 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Copper Cathode Sales

Under the terms of copper cathode sales contracts, copper sales prices are provisionally set on a specified future date based upon market commodity prices plus certain price adjustments. Revenue is recognized at the time of shipment, which is also when the risks and rewards of ownership pass to the customer. Revenue is provisionally measured using forward market prices on the expected date that final selling prices will be determined. Variations occur between the price recorded on the date of revenue recognition and the actual final price under the terms of the contracts due to changes in market copper prices, which result in the existence of an embedded derivative in accounts receivable. This embedded derivative is recorded at fair value each period until final settlement occurs, with changes in fair value classified as provisional price adjustments and included in revenue in the consolidated statement of income.

G) | Exploration and Evaluation (“E&E”)

Exploration expenditures are the costs incurred in the initial search for mineral deposits with economic potential or in the process of obtaining more information about existing mineral deposits. Exploration expenditures typically include costs associated with prospecting, sampling, mapping, diamond drilling and other work involved in searching for ore.

Evaluation expenditures are the costs incurred to establish the technical and commercial viability of developing mineral deposits identified through exploration activities or by acquisition. Evaluation expenditures include the cost of (i) establishing the volume and grade of deposits through drilling of core samples, trenching and sampling activities in an ore body that is classified as either a mineral resource or a proven and probable reserve; (ii) determining the optimal methods of extraction and metallurgical and treatment processes; (iii) studies related to surveying, transportation and infrastructure requirements; (iv) permitting activities; and (v) economic evaluations to determine whether development of the mineralized material is commercially justified, including scoping, prefeasibility and final feasibility studies.

Exploration and evaluation expenditures are capitalized if management determines that probable future economic benefits will be generated as a result of the expenditures. Cash flows attributable to capitalized exploration and evaluation expenditures are classified as investing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flow.

H) | Earnings per Share

Earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if additional common shares are assumed to be issued under securities that entitle their holders to obtain common shares in the future. For stock options, the number of additional shares for inclusion in diluted earnings per share calculations is determined using the treasury stock method. Under this method, stock options, whose exercise price is less than the average market price of our common shares, are assumed to be exercised and the proceeds are used to repurchase common shares at the average market price for the period. The incremental number of common shares issued under stock options and repurchased from proceeds is included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

I) | Taxation

Current tax for each taxable entity is based on the local taxable income at the local statutory tax rate enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date and includes adjustments to tax payable or recoverable in respect of previous periods.

Deferred tax is recognized using the balance sheet method in respect of all temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities, and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, except as indicated below.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except:

— |  | Where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill, or the initial recognition of an asset or liability in an acquisition that is not a business combination and, at the time of the acquisition, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and

— |  | In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and interests in joint ventures, where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilized, except:

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 87 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

— |  | Where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in an acquisition that is not a business combination and, at the time of the acquisition, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and

— |  | In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.

The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. To the extent that an asset not previously recognized fulfills the criteria for recognition, a deferred income tax asset is recorded.

Deferred tax is measured on an undiscounted basis at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the periods in which the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

Current and deferred tax relating to items recognized directly in equity are recognized in equity and not in the income statement.

Royalties and Special Mining Taxes

Income tax expense includes the cost of royalty and special mining taxes payable to governments that are calculated based on a percentage of taxable profit whereby taxable profit represents net income adjusted for certain items defined in the applicable legislation.

Indirect Taxes

Indirect tax recoverable is recorded at their undiscounted amount, and are disclosed as non-current if not expected to be recovered within twelve months.

J) | Other Investments

Investments in publicly quoted equity securities that are neither subsidiaries nor associates are categorized as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale equity investments are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded in OCI. Realized gains and losses are recorded in earnings when investments are sold and are calculated using the average carrying amount of securities sold.

If the fair value of an investment declines below the carrying amount, we undertake qualitative and quantitative assessments of whether the impairment is either significant or prolonged. If an unrealized loss on an available-for-sale investment has been recognized in OCI and it is deemed to be either significant or prolonged, any cumulative loss that had been recognized in OCI is reclassified as an impairment loss in the consolidated statement of income. The reclassification adjustment is calculated as the difference between the acquisition cost and current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognized. If the value of a previously impaired available-for-sale equity investment subsequently recovers, additional unrealized gains are recorded in OCI and the previously recorded impairment losses are not reversed through the consolidated statement of income.

K) | Inventory

Material extracted from our mines is classified as either ore or waste. Ore represents material that, at the time of extraction, we expect to process into a saleable form and sell at a profit. Raw materials are comprised of both ore in stockpiles and ore on leach pads as processing is required to extract benefit from the ore. Ore is accumulated in stockpiles that are subsequently processed into gold/copper in a saleable form. The recovery of gold and copper from certain oxide ores is achieved through the heap leaching process. Work in process represents gold/copper in the processing circuit that has not completed the production process, and is not yet in a saleable form. Finished goods inventory represents gold/copper in saleable form. Mine operating supplies represent commodity consumables and other raw materials used in the production process, as well as spare parts and other maintenance supplies that are not classified as capital items.

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined on a weighted average basis and includes all costs incurred, based on a normal production capacity, in bringing each product to its present location and condition. Cost of inventories comprises direct labor, materials and contractor expenses, including non-capitalized stripping costs; depreciation on PP&E including capitalized stripping costs; and an allocation of mine site overhead costs. As ore is removed for processing, costs are removed based on the average cost per ounce/pound in the stockpile.

We record provisions to reduce inventory to net realizable value to reflect changes in economic factors that impact inventory value and to reflect present intentions for the use of slow moving and obsolete supplies inventory. Net

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 88 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

realizable value is determined with reference to relevant market prices less applicable variable selling expenses. Provisions recorded also reflect an estimate of the remaining costs of completion to bring the inventory into its saleable form. Provisions are also recorded to reduce mine operating supplies to net realizable value, which is generally calculated by reference to its salvage or scrap value, when it is determined that the supplies are obsolete. Provisions are reversed to reflect subsequent recoveries in net realizable value where the inventory is still on hand.

L) | Production Stage

We assess each mine construction project to determine when a mine moves into production stage. The criteria used to assess the start date are determined based on the nature of each mine construction project, such as the complexity of a plant or its location. We consider various relevant criteria to assess when the mine is substantially complete and ready for its intended use and moved into the production stage. Some of the criteria considered would include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) the level of capital expenditures compared to construction cost estimates; (2) the completion of a reasonable period of testing of mine plant and equipment; (3) the ability to produce minerals in saleable form (within specifications); and (4) the ability to sustain ongoing production of minerals.

When a mine construction project moves into the production stage, the capitalization of certain mine construction costs ceases and costs are either capitalized to inventory or expensed, except for capitalizable costs related to property, plant and equipment additions or improvements, open pit stripping activities that provide a future benefit, underground mine development or E&E expenditures that meet the criteria for capitalization.

Pre-production stripping costs are capitalized until an “other than de minimis” level of mineral is extracted, after which time such costs are either capitalized to inventory or, if it qualifies as an open pit stripping activity that provides a future benefit, to PP&E. We consider various relevant criteria to assess when an “other than de minimis” level of mineral is produced. Some of the criteria considered would include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) the amount of minerals mined versus total ounces in life of mine (“LOM”) ore; (2) the amount of ore tons mined versus total LOM expected ore tons mined; (3) the current stripping ratio versus the LOM strip ratio; and (4) the ore grade versus the LOM grade.

M) | Property, Plant and Equipment

Buildings, Plant and Equipment

At acquisition, we record buildings, plant and equipment at cost, including all expenditures incurred to prepare an asset for its intended use. These expenditures consist of: the purchase price; brokers’ commissions; and installation costs including architectural, design and engineering fees, legal fees, survey costs, site preparation costs, freight charges, transportation insurance costs, duties, testing and preparation charges.

We capitalize costs that meet the asset recognition criteria. Costs incurred that do not extend the productive capacity or useful economic life of an asset are considered repairs and maintenance expense and are accounted for as a cost of the inventory produced in the period.

Buildings, plant and equipment are depreciated over their expected useful life, which commences when the assets are considered available for use. Once buildings, plant and equipment are considered available for use they are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and applicable impairment losses.

Depreciation on equipment utilized in the development of assets, including open pit and underground mine development, is recapitalized as development costs attributable to the related asset.

Estimated useful lives of Major Asset Categories

Buildings, plant and equipment |  | 5 - 29 years
Underground mobile equipment |  | 5 - 7 years
Light vehicles and other mobile equipment |  | 2 - 3 years
Furniture, computer and office equipment |  | 2 - 3 years

Leasing Arrangements

The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease is based on the substance of the arrangement at inception date, including whether the fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of a specific asset or assets or whether the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset.

Leasing arrangements that transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to Barrick are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are recorded as an asset with a corresponding liability at an amount equal to the lower of the fair value of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance costs using the effective interest method, whereby a constant rate of interest expense is recognized on the balance of the

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 89 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

liability outstanding. The interest element of the lease is charged to the consolidated statement of income as a finance cost.

PP&E assets acquired under finance leases are depreciated, over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term.

All other leases are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as an operating cost in the consolidated statements of income on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Mineral Properties

Mineral properties consist of: the fair value attributable to mineral reserves and resources acquired in a business combination or asset acquisition; underground mine development costs; open pit mine development costs; capitalized exploration and evaluation costs; and capitalized interest.

i) Acquired Mining Properties

On acquisition of a mining property we prepare an estimate of the fair value attributable to the proven and probable mineral reserves, mineral resources and exploration potential attributable to the property. The estimated fair value attributable to the mineral reserves and the portion of mineral resources considered to be probable of economic extraction at the time of the acquisition is depreciated on a units of production (“UOP”) basis whereby the denominator is the proven and probable reserves and the portion of mineral resources considered to be probable of economic extraction. The estimated fair value attributable to mineral resources that are not considered to be probable of economic extraction at the time of the acquisition is not subject to depreciation, until the resources become probable of economic extraction in the future. The estimated fair value attributable to exploration licenses is recorded as an intangible asset and is not subject to depreciation until the property enters production.

ii) Underground Mine Development Costs

At our underground mines, we incur development costs to build new shafts, drifts and ramps that will enable us to physically access ore underground. The time over which we will continue to incur these costs depends on the mine life. These underground development costs are capitalized as incurred.

Capitalized underground development costs incurred to enable access to specific ore blocks or areas of the underground mine, and which only provide an economic

benefit over the period of mining that ore block or area, are depreciated on a UOP basis, whereby the denominator is estimated ounces/pounds of gold/copper in proven and probable reserves and the portion of resources within that ore block or area that is considered probable of economic extraction.

If capitalized underground development costs provide an economic benefit over the entire mine life, the costs are depreciated on a UOP basis, whereby the denominator is the estimated ounces/pounds of gold/copper in total accessible proven and probable reserves and the portion of resources that is considered probable of economic extraction.

iii) Open Pit Mining Costs

In open pit mining operations, it is necessary to remove overburden and other waste materials to access ore from which minerals can be extracted economically. The process of mining overburden and waste materials is referred to as stripping. Stripping costs incurred in order to provide initial access to the ore body (referred to as pre-production stripping) are capitalized as open pit mine development costs.

Stripping costs incurred during the production stage of a pit are accounted for as costs of the inventory produced during the period that the stripping costs are incurred, unless these costs are expected to provide a future economic benefit to an identifiable component of the ore body. Production phase stripping costs generate a future economic benefit when the related stripping activity: (i) improves access to a component of the ore body to be mined in the future; (ii) increases the fair value of the mine (or pit) as access to future mineral reserves becomes less costly; and (iii) increases the productive capacity or extends the productive life of the mine (or pit). Production phase stripping costs that are expected to generate a future economic benefit are capitalized as open pit mine development costs.

Capitalized open pit mine development costs are depreciated on a UOP basis whereby the denominator is the estimated ounces/pounds of gold/copper in proven and probable reserves and the portion of resources considered probable of economic extraction based on the current LOM plan in the components of the ore body that have been made more accessible through the stripping activity. Capitalized open pit mine development costs are depreciated once the open pit has entered production and the future economic benefit is being derived.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 90 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Construction-in-Progress

Assets under construction at operating mines are capitalized as construction-in-progress. The cost of construction-in-progress comprises its purchase price and any costs directly attributable to bringing it into working condition for its intended use. Construction-in-progress amounts related to development projects are included in the carrying amount of the development project. Construction-in-progress amounts incurred at operating mines are presented as a separate asset within PP&E. Construction-in-progress also includes deposits on long lead items. Construction-in-progress is not depreciated. Depreciation commences once the asset is complete and available for use.

Capitalized Interest

We capitalize interest costs for qualifying assets. Qualifying assets are assets that require a significant amount of time to prepare for their intended use, including projects that are in the exploration and evaluation, development or construction stages. Qualifying assets also include significant expansion projects at our operating mines. Capitalized interest costs are considered an element of the cost of the qualifying asset which is determined based on gross expenditures incurred on an asset. Capitalization ceases when the asset is substantially complete or if active development is suspended or ceases. Where the funds used to finance a qualifying asset form part of general borrowings, the amount capitalized is calculated using a weighted average of rates applicable to the relevant borrowings during the period. Where funds borrowed are directly attributable to a qualifying asset, the amount capitalized represents the borrowing costs specific to those borrowings. Where surplus funds available out of money borrowed specifically to finance a project are temporarily invested, the total capitalized interest is reduced by income generated from short-term investments of such funds.

Insurance

We record losses relating to insurable events as they occur. Proceeds receivable from insurance coverage are recorded at such time as receipt is receivable or virtually certain and the amount receivable is fixed or determinable. For business interruption the amount is only recognized when it is virtually certain or receivable as supported by receipt of notification of a minimum or proposed settlement amount from the insurance adjuster.

N) Goodwill

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the costs of business combinations are allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair value at

the date of acquisition. The excess of the fair value of consideration paid over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized; instead it is tested annually for impairment at the beginning of the fourth quarter for all of our segments. Our copper segment was previously tested at the end of the fourth quarter. In addition, at each reporting period we assess whether there is an indication that goodwill is impaired and, if there is such an indication, we would test for goodwill impairment at that time. At the date of acquisition, goodwill is assigned to the cash generating unit (“CGU”) or group of CGUs that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination. For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the Company’s operating segments, which corresponds to the level at which goodwill is internally monitored by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), the Chief Executive Officer.

The recoverable amount of an operating segment is the higher of Value in Use (“VIU”) and Fair Value Less Costs of Disposal (“FVLCD”). A goodwill impairment is recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of the segment over its recoverable amount. Goodwill impairment charges are not reversible.

O) Intangible Assets

Intangible assets acquired by way of an asset acquisition or business combination are recognized if the asset is separable or arises from contractual or legal rights and the fair value can be measured reliably on initial recognition.

On acquisition of a mineral property in the exploration stage, we prepare an estimate of the fair value attributable to the exploration licenses acquired, including the fair value attributable to mineral resources, if any, of that property. The fair value of the exploration license is recorded as an intangible asset (acquired exploration potential) as at the date of acquisition. When an exploration stage property moves into development, the acquired exploration potential attributable to that property is transferred to mining interests within PP&E.

P) Impairment of Non-Current Assets

We review and test the carrying amounts of PP&E and intangible assets with definite lives when an indicator of impairment is considered to exist. Impairment assessments on PP&E and intangible assets are conducted at the level of CGU, which is the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets. For operating mines and projects, the individual mine/project represents a CGU for impairment testing.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 91 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The recoverable amount of a CGU is the higher of VIU and FVLCD. An impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of a CGU over its recoverable amount. Where it is not appropriate to allocate the loss to a separate asset, an impairment loss related to a CGU is allocated to the carrying amount of the assets of the CGU on a pro rata basis based on the carrying amount of its non-monetary assets.

Impairment Reversal

Impairment losses for PP&E and intangible assets are reversed if the conditions that gave rise to the impairment are no longer present and it has been determined that the asset is no longer impaired as a result. This reversal is recognized in the consolidated statements of income and is limited to the carrying value that would have been determined, net of any depreciation where applicable, had no impairment charge been recognized in prior years. When an impairment reversal is undertaken, the recoverable amount is assessed by reference to the higher of VIU and FVLCD.

Q) Debt

Debt is recognized initially at fair value, net of financing costs incurred, and subsequently measured at amortized cost. Any difference between the amounts originally received and the redemption value of the debt is recognized in the consolidated statement of income over the period to maturity using the effective interest method.

R) Derivative Instruments and Hedge Accounting

Derivative Instruments

Derivative instruments are recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet, classified based on contractual maturity. Derivative instruments are classified as either hedges of the fair value of recognized assets or liabilities or of firm commitments (“fair value hedges”), hedges of highly probable forecast transactions (“cash flow hedges”) or non-hedge derivatives. Derivatives designated as either a fair value or cash flow hedge that are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they actually have been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated. Derivative assets and derivative liabilities are shown separately in the balance sheet unless there is a legal right to offset and intent to settle on a net basis.

Fair Value Hedges

Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recorded in the consolidated statement of income, together with any

changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability or firm commitment that is attributable to the hedged risk.

Cash Flow Hedges

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized in the consolidated statements of income. Amounts accumulated in equity are transferred to the consolidated statements of income in the period when the forecasted transaction impacts earnings. When the forecasted transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or a non-financial liability, the gains and losses previously deferred in equity are transferred from equity and included in the measurement of the initial carrying amount of the asset or liability.

When a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge expires or is sold and the forecasted transaction is still expected to occur, any cumulative gain or loss relating to the derivative that is recorded in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognized in the consolidated statements of income when the forecasted transaction occurs. When a forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was recorded in equity is immediately transferred to the consolidated statements of income.

Non-Hedge Derivatives

Derivative instruments that do not qualify as either fair value or cash flow hedges are recorded at their fair value at the balance sheet date, with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of income.

S) Embedded Derivatives

Derivatives embedded in other financial instruments or executory contracts are accounted for as separate derivatives when their risks and characteristics are not closely related to their host financial instrument or contract. In some cases, the embedded derivatives may be designated as hedges and are accounted for as described above.

T) Fair Value Measurement

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Refer to note 25 for further information.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 92 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

U) Environmental Rehabilitation Provision

Mining, extraction and processing activities normally give rise to obligations for environmental rehabilitation. Rehabilitation work can include facility decommissioning and dismantling; removal or treatment of waste materials; site and land rehabilitation, including compliance with and monitoring of environmental regulations; security and other site-related costs required to perform the rehabilitation work; and operation of equipment designed to reduce or eliminate environmental effects. The extent of work required and the associated costs are dependent on the requirements of relevant authorities and our environmental policies. Routine operating costs that may impact the ultimate closure and rehabilitation activities, such as waste material handling conducted as an integral part of a mining or production process, are not included in the provision. Costs arising from unforeseen circumstances, such as the contamination caused by unplanned discharges, are recognized as an expense and liability when the event that gives rise to an obligation occurs and reliable estimates of the required rehabilitation costs can be made.

Provisions for the cost of each rehabilitation program are normally recognized at the time that an environmental disturbance occurs or a constructive obligation is determined. When the extent of disturbance increases over the life of an operation, the provision is increased accordingly. The major parts of the carrying amount of provisions relate to tailings pond closure/rehabilitation; demolition of buildings/mine facilities; ongoing water treatment; and ongoing care and maintenance and security of closed mines. Costs included in the provision encompass all closure and rehabilitation activity expected to occur progressively over the life of the operation at the time of closure and post-closure in connection with disturbances as at the reporting date. Estimated costs included in the determination of the provision reflect the risks and probabilities of alternative estimates of cash flows required to settle the obligation at each particular operation. The expected rehabilitation costs are estimated based on the cost of external contractors performing the work or the cost of performing the work internally depending on management’s intention.

The timing of the actual rehabilitation expenditure is dependent upon a number of factors such as the life and nature of the asset, the operating license conditions and the environment in which the mine operates. Expenditures may occur before and after closure and can continue for an extended period of time depending on rehabilitation requirements. Rehabilitation provisions are measured at the expected value of future cash flows, which exclude the

effect of inflation, discounted to their present value using a current US dollar real risk-free pre-tax discount rate. The unwinding of the discount, referred to as accretion expense, is included in finance costs and results in an increase in the amount of the provision. Provisions are updated each reporting period for changes to expected cash flows and for the effect of changes in the discount rate, and the change in estimate is added or deducted from the related asset and depreciated over the expected economic life of the operation to which it relates.

Significant judgments and estimates are involved in forming expectations of future activities and the amount and timing of the associated cash flows. Those expectations are formed based on existing environmental and regulatory requirements or, if more stringent, our environmental policies which give rise to a constructive obligation.

When provisions for closure and rehabilitation are initially recognized, the corresponding cost is capitalized as an asset, representing part of the cost of acquiring the future economic benefits of the operation. The capitalized cost of closure and rehabilitation activities is recognized in PP&E and depreciated over the expected economic life of the operation to which it relates.

Adjustments to the estimated amount and timing of future closure and rehabilitation cash flows are a normal occurrence in light of the significant judgments and estimates involved. The principal factors that can cause expected cash flows to change are: the construction of new processing facilities; changes in the quantities of material in reserves and resources with a corresponding change in the life of mine plan; changing ore characteristics that impact required environmental protection measures and related costs; changes in water quality that impact the extent of water treatment required; changes in discount rates; changes in foreign exchange rates and changes in laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment.

Rehabilitation provisions are adjusted as a result of changes in estimates and assumptions. Those adjustments are accounted for as a change in the corresponding cost of the related assets, including the related mineral property, except where a reduction in the provision is greater than the remaining net book value of the related assets, in which case the value is reduced to nil and the remaining adjustment is recognized in the consolidated statement of income. In the case of closed sites, changes in estimates and assumptions are recognized immediately in the consolidated statement of income. For an operating mine, the adjusted carrying amount of the related asset is depreciated prospectively. Adjustments also result in changes to future finance costs.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 93 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

V) Litigation and Other Provisions

Provisions are recognized when a present obligation exists (legal or constructive), as a result of a past event, for which it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Provisions are discounted to their present value using a current US dollar real risk-free pre-tax discount rate and the accretion expense is included in finance costs.

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against us or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company with assistance from its legal counsel evaluate the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.

If the assessment of a contingency suggests that a loss is probable, and the amount can be reliably estimated, then a loss is recorded. When a contingent loss is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but the amount of loss cannot be reliably estimated, then details of the contingent loss are disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case we disclose the nature of the guarantee. Legal fees incurred in connection with pending legal proceedings are expensed as incurred. Contingent gains are only recognized when the inflow of economic benefits is virtually certain.

W) Stock-Based Compensation

Barrick offers equity-settled (Employee Stock Option Plan (“ESOP”), Employee Share Purchase Plan (“ESPP”)) and cash-settled (Restricted Share Units (“RSU”), Deferred Share Units (“DSU”), Performance Restricted Share Units (“PRSU”)) awards to certain employees, officers and directors of the Company.

Equity-settled awards are measured at fair value using the Lattice model with market related inputs as of the date of the grant. The cost is recorded over the vesting period of the award to the same expense category as the award recipient’s payroll costs (i.e. cost of sales, operating segment administration, corporate administration) and the corresponding entry is recorded in equity. Equity-settled

awards are not remeasured subsequent to the initial grant date.

Cash-settled awards are measured at fair value initially using the market value of the underlying shares at the date of the grant of the award and are required to be remeasured to fair value at each reporting date until settlement. The cost is then recorded over the vesting period of the award. This expense, and any changes in the fair value of the award, is recorded to the same expense category as the award recipient’s payroll costs. The cost of a cash-settled award is recorded within liabilities until settled.

We use the accelerated method (also referred to as ‘graded’ vesting) for attributing stock option expense over the vesting period. Stock option expense incorporates an expected forfeiture rate. The expected forfeiture rate is estimated based on historical forfeiture rates and expectations of future forfeiture rates. We make adjustments if the actual forfeiture rate differs from the expected rate.

Employee Stock Option Plan (“ESOP”)

Under Barrick’s ESOP, certain officers and key employees of the Corporation may purchase common shares at an exercise price that is equal to the closing share price on the day before the grant of the option. The grant date is the date when the details of the award, including the number of options granted to the individual and the exercise price, are approved. Stock options vest equally over four years, beginning in the year after granting. The ESOP arrangement has graded vesting terms, and therefore, multiple vesting periods must be valued and accounted for separately over their respective vesting periods. The compensation expense of the instruments issued for each grant under the ESOP is calculated using the Lattice model. The compensation expense is adjusted by the estimated forfeiture rate which is estimated based on historical forfeiture rates and expectations of future forfeiture rates. We make adjustments if the actual forfeiture rate differs from the expected rate.

Restricted Share Units (“RSU”)

Under our RSU plan, selected employees are granted RSUs where each RSU has a value equal to one Barrick common share. RSUs vest at the end of two and a half years and are settled in cash upon vesting. Additional RSUs are credited to reflect dividends paid on Barrick common shares over the vesting period.

A liability for RSUs is measured at fair value on the grant date and is subsequently adjusted for changes in fair value.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 94 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The liability is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, with a corresponding charge to compensation expense, as a component of corporate administration and operating segment administration. Compensation expenses for RSUs incorporate an estimate for expected forfeiture rates based on which the fair value is adjusted.

Deferred Share Units (“DSU”)

Under our DSU plan, Directors must receive a specified portion of their basic annual retainer in the form of DSUs, with the option to elect to receive 100% of such retainer in DSUs. Each DSU has the same value as one Barrick common share. DSUs must be retained until the Director leaves the Board, at which time the cash value of the DSUs is paid out. Additional DSUs are credited to reflect dividends paid on Barrick common shares. The initial fair value of the liability is calculated as of the grant date and is recognized immediately. Subsequently, at each reporting date and on settlement, the liability is remeasured, with any change in fair value recorded as compensation expense in the period.

Performance Restricted Share Units

Under our PRSU plan, selected employees are granted PRSUs, where each PRSU has a value equal to one Barrick common share. PRSUs vest at the end of a three-year period and are settled in cash on the third anniversary of the grant date. Additional PRSUs are credited to reflect dividends paid on Barrick common shares over the vesting period. Vesting, and therefore the liability, is based on the achievement of performance goals and the target settlement ranges from 0% to 200% of the original grant of units.

The value of a PRSU reflects the value of a Barrick common share and the number of shares issued is adjusted for its relative performance against certain competitors. Therefore, the fair value of the PRSUs is determined with reference to the closing stock price at each remeasurement date.

The initial fair value of the liability is calculated as of the grant date and is recognized within compensation expense using the straight-line method over the vesting period. Subsequently, at each reporting date and on settlement, the liability is remeasured, with any changes in fair value recorded as compensation expense. The fair value is adjusted for the revised estimated forfeiture rate.

Employee Share Purchase Plan

Under our ESPP plan, Barrick employees can purchase Company shares through payroll deduction. Each year,

employees may contribute 1%-6% of their combined base salary and annual bonus, and Barrick will match 50% of the contribution, up to a maximum of $5,000 per year.

Both Barrick and the employee make the contributions on a bi-monthly basis with the funds being transferred to a custodian who purchases Barrick Common Shares in the open market. Shares purchased with employee contributions have no vesting requirement; however, shares purchased with Barrick’s contributions vest one year from contribution date. All dividend income is used to purchase additional Barrick shares.

Barrick records an expense equal to its bi-monthly cash contribution. No forfeiture rate is applied to the amounts accrued. Where an employee leaves prior to vesting, any accrual for contributions by Barrick during the year related to that employee is reversed.

X) Post-Retirement Benefits

Defined Contribution Pension Plans

Certain employees take part in defined contribution employee benefit plans whereby we contribute up to 6% of the employees’ annual salary. We also have a retirement plan for certain officers of Barrick under which we contribute 15% of the officer’s annual salary. The contributions are recognized as compensation expense as incurred. The Company has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid.

Defined Benefit Pension Plans

We have qualified defined benefit pension plans that cover certain United States and Canadian employees and provide benefits based on employees’ years of service. Our policy is to fund the amounts necessary on an actuarial basis to provide enough assets to meet the benefits payable to plan members. Independent trustees administer assets of the plans, which are invested mainly in fixed income and equity securities.

As well as the qualified plans, we have non-qualified defined benefit pension plans covering certain employees and former directors of Barrick. No funding is done on these plans and contributions for future years are required to be equal to benefit payments.

Actuarial gains and losses arise when the actual return on plan assets differs from the expected return on plan assets for a period, or when the accrued benefit obligations change during the year. We record actuarial gains and losses in OCI and retained earnings.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 95 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Our valuations are carried out using the projected unit credit method. We record the difference between the fair value of the plan assets and the present value of the plan obligations as an asset or liability on the consolidated balance sheets.

Pension Plan Assets and Liabilities

Pension plan assets, which consist primarily of fixed-income and equity securities, are valued using current market quotations. Plan obligations and the annual pension expense are determined on an actuarial basis and are affected by numerous assumptions and estimates including the market value of plan assets, estimates of the expected return on plan assets, discount rates, future wage increases and other assumptions.

The discount rate is the assumption that generally has the most significant impact on our pension cost and obligation.

Other Post-Retirement Benefits

We provide post-retirement medical, dental, and life insurance benefits to certain employees. Actuarial gains and losses resulting from variances between actual results and economic estimates or actuarial assumptions are recorded in OCI.

Y) New Accounting Standards adopted during the year

The Company has adopted the following new standards, along with any consequential amendments, effective January 1, 2013. These changes were made in accordance with the applicable transitional provisions.

IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements

In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements to replace the consolidation guidance in IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements and SIC 12 Consolidation – Special Purpose Entities. The new consolidation standard changes the definition of control so that the same criteria apply to all entities, both operating and special purpose entities, to determine control. The revised definition of control focuses on the need to have power over the investee, exposure to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns. We conducted a review of all our non-wholly owned entities and structured entities and determined that the adoption of IFRS 10 did not result in any change in the consolidation status of any of our subsidiaries and investees.

IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements

In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements to replace IAS 31, Interests in Joint Ventures. The new standard defines two types of arrangements: Joint

Operations and Joint Ventures. The focus of the standard is to reflect the rights and obligations of the parties involved in the joint arrangement, regardless of whether the joint arrangement operates through a separate legal entity. Joint arrangements that are classified as joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Joint arrangements that are classified as joint operations require the venturers to recognize the individual assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses to which they have legal rights or are responsible. As a result of adopting IFRS 11, we have classified our interest in the Donlin Gold project as a joint operation. Our 50% interest in the project was previously accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

As a result of the change in accounting, we now recognize our share of the project’s assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. This change in accounting was adopted as at January 1, 2013 with retrospective application by the derecognition of our equity investment and the recognition of our share of the project’s assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities to create a comprehensive disclosure standard to address the requirements for subsidiaries, joint arrangements and associates including the reporting entity’s involvement with other entities. It also includes the requirements for unconsolidated structured entities (i.e. special purpose entities). We have adopted IFRS 12 effective January 1, 2013. We have added additional disclosures in notes 2B, 15, 31.

IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement

In May 2011, the IASB issued IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement as a single source of guidance for all fair value measurements required by IFRS to reduce the complexity and improve consistency across its application. The standard provides a definition of fair value and guidance on how to measure fair value as well as a requirement for enhanced disclosures. We have adopted IFRS 13 on a prospective basis. We have added additional disclosures on fair value measurement in note 25.

IAS 19 Employee Benefits

In June 2011, the IASB issued revised IAS 19. As a result we replaced interest cost and expected return on plan assets with a net interest amount that is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability (asset). Adoption of revised IAS 19 did not materially impact the measurement, recognition or disclosure in our financial statements. See note 34 for further details.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 96 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

IFRIC 20 Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine

In October 2011, the IASB issued IFRIC 20 Stripping Costs in the Production Phase of a Surface Mine. IFRIC 20 provides guidance on the accounting for the costs of stripping activities during the production phase of surface mining when two benefits accrue to the entity as a result of the stripping: useable ore that can be used to produce inventory and improved access to further quantities of material that will be mined in future periods. We have adopted IFRIC 20 effective January 1, 2013. Upon adoption of IFRIC 20, we assessed the stripping asset on the balance sheet as at January 1, 2012 and determined that there are identifiable components of

the ore body with which this stripping asset can be associated, and therefore no balance sheet adjustment was required. The adoption of IFRIC 20 has resulted in increased capitalization of waste stripping costs and a reduction in our cost of sales in 2012. If we had not adopted the standard, our net income and capitalized waste stripping costs for current and comparative periods would have decreased.

For the quantitative impact of adopting IFRS 11 and IFRIC 20 on our prior year consolidated financial statements and of the impact of the discontinued operations of our energy business (note 4b), please refer to tables below.

Z) | New Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

In November 2009, the IASB issued IFRS 9 Financial Instruments as the first step in its project to replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 retains but simplifies the mixed measurement model and establishes two primary measurement categories for financial assets: amortized cost and fair value. The basis of classification depends on an entity’s business model and the contractual cash flows of the financial asset. Classification is made at the time the financial asset is initially recognized, namely when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Requirements for classification and measurement of financial liabilities were added in October 2010 and they largely carried forward existing requirements in IAS 39, except that fair value changes due to an entity’s own credit risk for liabilities designated at fair value through profit and loss would generally be recorded in OCI rather than the income statement.

IFRS 9 amends some of the requirements of IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures, including added disclosures about investments in equity instruments measured at fair value in OCI, and guidance on financial liabilities and derecognition of financial instruments. In December 2011, amendments to IFRS 7 were issued to require additional disclosures on transition from IAS 39 to IFRS 9. In November 2013, IFRS 9 was amended to include guidance on hedge accounting and to allow entities to early adopt the requirement to recognize changes in fair value attributable to changes in entity’s own credit risk, from financial liabilities designated under the fair value option, in OCI (without having to adopt the remainder of IFRS 9). In July 2013, the IASB tentatively decided to defer the mandatory effective date of IFRS 9. The IASB agreed that the mandatory effective date should no longer be annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015 but rather be left open pending the finalization of the impairment and classification and measurement requirements. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting IFRS 9 on our consolidated financial statements.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 98 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

IFRIC 21 Levies

In May 2013, IASB issued IFRIC 21 Levies, which sets out the accounting for an obligation to pay a levy that is not income tax. The interpretation addresses what the obligating event is that gives rise to pay a levy and when should a liability be recognized. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting IFRIC 21 on our consolidated financial statements.

3 > SIGNIFICANT JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES, ASSUMPTIONS AND RISKS

Many of the amounts included in the consolidated balance sheet require management to make judgments and/or estimates. These judgments and estimates are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances. Actual results may differ from the estimates. Information about such judgments and estimates is contained in the description of our accounting policies and/or other notes to the financial statements. The key areas where judgments, estimates and assumptions have been made are summarized below.

Reserves and Resources

Estimates of the quantities of proven and probable mineral reserves and mineral resources, form the basis for our life of mine (“LOM”) plans, which are used for a number of important business and accounting purposes, including: the calculation of depreciation expense; the capitalization of production phase stripping costs; and forecasting the timing of the payments related to the environmental rehabilitation provision. In addition, the underlying LOM plans are used in the impairment tests for goodwill and non-current assets. We estimate our ore reserves and mineral resources based on information compiled by qualified persons as defined in accordance with the Canadian Securities Administrators’ National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects requirements. Refer to notes 18 and 20.

Impairment of Goodwill and Non-Current Assets

Goodwill and non-current assets are tested for impairment if there is an indicator of impairment, and in the case of goodwill, annually at the beginning of the fourth quarter for all of our operating segments. Calculating the estimated fair values of CGUs for non-current asset impairment tests and CGUs or groups of CGUs for goodwill impairment tests requires management to make estimates and assumptions with respect to future production levels, operating and capital costs in our LOM plans, future metal prices, foreign exchange rates, Net Asset Value (“NAV”) multiples, value of reserves outside LOM plans in relation to the assumptions

related to comparable entities and the market values per ounce and per pound and discount rates. Changes in any of the assumptions or estimates used in determining the fair values could impact the impairment analysis. Management is also required to make a judgment with respect to which CGUs should be grouped together for goodwill testing purposes, including the assessment of operating segments, the highest level at which goodwill can be tested. Refer to note 2n, note 2p and note 20 for further information.

Capitalization of Exploration and Evaluation Costs

Management has determined that costs related to exploration drilling, evaluation studies and other development work that have been capitalized have probable future benefit and are economically recoverable. Management’s criteria for assessing the economic recoverability of these costs is disclosed in note 2g.

Production Stage of a Mine

The determination of the date on which a mine enters the production stage is a significant judgment since capitalization of certain costs ceases upon entering production. As a mine is constructed, costs incurred are capitalized and proceeds from mineral sales are offset against the capitalized costs. This continues until the mine is available for use in the manner intended by management, which requires significant judgment in its determination. Refer to note 2l for further information on the criteria used to make this assessment.

Provisions for Environmental Rehabilitation

Management assesses its provision for environmental rehabilitation on an annual basis or when new information becomes available. This assessment includes the estimation of the future rehabilitation costs, the timing of these expenditures, and the impact of changes in discount rates and foreign exchange rates. The actual future expenditures may differ from the amounts currently provided if the estimates made are significantly different than actual results or if there are significant changes in environmental and/or regulatory requirements in the future. Refer to notes 2u and 26 for further information.

Taxes

Management is required to make estimations regarding the tax basis of assets and liabilities and related deferred income tax assets and liabilities, amounts recorded for uncertain tax positions, the measurement of income tax expense and indirect taxes, and estimates of the timing of repatriation of earnings, which would impact the recognition of withholding taxes and taxes related to the outside basis on subsidiaries/associates. A number of these estimates require management to make estimates of

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 99 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

future taxable profit, and the recoverability of indirect taxes, and if actual results are significantly different than our estimates, the ability to realize the deferred tax assets and indirect tax receivables recorded on our balance sheet could be impacted. Refer to note 2i, note 11 and note 29 for further information.

Contingencies

Contingencies can be either possible assets or possible liabilities arising from past events which, by their nature, will only be resolved when one or more future events not wholly within our control occur or fail to occur. The assessment of such contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgment and estimates of the outcome of future events. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against us or unasserted claims, that may result in such proceedings or regulatory or government actions that may negatively impact our business or operations, the Company with assistance from its legal counsel evaluate the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims or actions as well as the perceived merits of the nature and amount of relief sought or expected to be sought, when determining the amount, if any, to recognize as a contingent liability or assessing the impact on the carrying value of assets. Contingent assets are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Refer to note 35 for more information.

Pascua-Lama Suspension Costs

As a result of our decision to suspend the construction of our Pascua-Lama project, significant judgment and estimation has been used in determining our accrued liabilities, including: demobilization, contract claims, severance and VAT refunds previously received in Chile. For contractors, it is necessary to estimate accruals for work completed but not yet invoiced based on subjective assessments of the stage of completion of their work in relation to invoices rendered; and for costs arising from existing contracts for legal or constructive obligations arising from our demobilization actions. For employees it is necessary to estimate accruals for termination obligations that have been incurred in accordance with our detailed, formal demobilization plan. In addition, we have received VAT refunds in Chile related to Pascua-Lama of $429 million that will require repayment should the project not come into production, which has not been accrued as the suspension is considered temporary.

Joint Arrangements

Judgment is required to determine when we have joint control, which requires an assessment of the relevant activities and when the decisions in relation to those

activities require unanimous consent. We have determined that the relevant activities for our joint arrangements are those relating to the operating and capital decisions of the arrangement, such as: the approval of the LOM plan, and appointing, remunerating and terminating the key management personnel of the joint arrangement.

Judgment is also required to classify a joint arrangement. Classifying the arrangement requires us to assess our rights and obligations arising from the arrangement. Specifically, it considers:

| — |  | The structure of the joint arrangement – whether it is structured through a separate vehicle

| — |  | When the arrangement is structured through a separate vehicle, we also consider the rights and obligations arising from:

| — |  | The legal form of the separate vehicle

| — |  | The terms of the contractual arrangement

| — |  | Other facts and circumstances (when relevant)

This assessment often requires significant judgment, and a different conclusion on joint control and also whether the arrangement is a JO or a JV, may materially impact the accounting. Donlin Gold is a joint arrangement which is structured through a separate vehicle, being an LLC, however the terms of the contractual arrangement indicate that we have rights to our share of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the mine and therefore concluded that it was a joint operations and as such, we recorded our share of assets and liabilities of Donlin Gold.

Refer to note 27 for a summary of our key financial risks.

4 > DIVESTITURES

A) | Disposition of Yilgarn South assets

On September 30, 2013, we recorded the sale of Yilgarn South assets, which comprised of Granny Smith, Lawlers and Darlot mines from our Australia Pacific operating unit for total proceeds of $266 million, consisting of $135 million in cash and $131 million in Gold Fields Limited shares (“GFL”). We measured GFL shares using the quoted market price at September 30, 2013 and there are no restrictions on when we can divest these shares. As a result of this sale, we recognized a gain of $11 million for the year ended December 31, 2013.

B) | Disposition of Barrick Energy

On July 31, 2013, we closed the sale of Barrick Energy for total proceeds of $435 million, consisting of $387 million in cash and a future royalty valued at $48 million. As a result of the sale, we recognized a loss of $519 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 representing the difference between the net proceeds and our carrying value.

C) | Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale

On January 31, 2014, we completed the sale of our Plutonic mine, part of our Australia Pacific operating unit, for total cash consideration of A$25 million. As at December 31, 2013, the assets and liabilities of Plutonic were written down to their realizable value, resulting in a loss of $17 million and have been presented as held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 101 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On January 22, 2014, we announced we had agreed to divest our Kanowna mine, part of our Australia Pacific operating unit, for total cash consideration of A$75 million, subject to certain closing adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in March 2014. Based on the expected proceeds of this transaction, we have reversed $66 million of impairment losses that we had recorded against Kanowna in second quarter 2013. As at December 31, 2013, the assets and liabilities of Kanowna have been presented as held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet.

On February 4, 2014, we announced we had agreed to divest our minority interest in the Marigold mine, part of our North America – Other operating unit for total cash consideration of $86 million, subject to certain closing adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in April 2014. As at December 31, 2013, the assets and liabilities of Marigold were written down to their realizable value, resulting in a loss of $60 million and have been presented as held for sale on the consolidated balance sheet.

5 > SEGMENT INFORMATION

In the fourth quarter 2013, we reorganized our operating structure and as a result, we are now organized into ten Operating Units: five individual gold mines, two gold mine portfolios, one publicly traded gold company, a global copper business, and one project. Barrick’s CODM, reviews the operating results, assesses performance and makes capital allocation decisions for each of these business operations at an Operating Unit level. Therefore, these Operating Units are operating segments for financial reporting purposes. We have restated our prior period results to conform to the current presentation. See note 19 for details regarding goodwill reallocation.

Segment performance is evaluated based on a number of measures including operating income before tax, production levels and unit production costs. Income tax, operating segment administration, finance income and costs, impairment charges and reversals, investment write-downs and gains/losses on non-hedge derivatives are managed on a consolidated basis and are therefore not reflected in segment income.

1 | Revenues include amounts transferred from OCI to earnings for commodity cash flow hedges (see note 24d).

2 | Revenues include the sale of by-products for our gold and copper mines.

Principal Products

All of our gold mining operations produce gold in doré form, except Bulyanhulu and Buzwagi which produce both gold doré and gold concentrate. Gold doré is unrefined gold bullion bars usually consisting of 90% gold that is refined to pure gold bullion prior to sale to our customers. Concentrate is a processing product containing the valuable ore mineral from which most of the waste mineral has been eliminated. Our Lumwana mine produces a concentrate that primarily contains copper. At our Zaldívar mine we produce copper cathode, which consists of 99.9% copper.

Revenue

Revenue is presented net of direct sales taxes of $51 million (2012: $65 million). Incidental revenues from the sale of by-products, primarily copper and silver at our gold mines, are classified within other metal sales.

Provisional Copper and Gold Sales

We have provisionally priced sales for which price finalization, referenced to the relevant copper and gold index, is outstanding at the balance sheet date. Our exposure at December 31, 2013 to the impact of movements in market commodity prices for provisionally priced sales is set out in the following table:

|  |  | Volumes subject to final pricing |  |  |  | Impact on net income before taxation of 10% movement in market price $M |

Gold ounces (000s) |  |  | 19 |  |  |  | 28 |  |  |  | 3 |  |  |  | 5 |

For the year ended December 31, 2013, our provisionally priced copper sales included provisional pricing losses of $9 million (2012: $10 million gain) and our provisionally priced gold sales included provisional pricing losses of $10 million (2012: $3 million gain).

At December 31, 2013, our provisionally priced copper and gold sales subject to final settlement were recorded at average prices of $3.34/lb (2012: $3.59/lb) and $1,349/oz (2012: $1,688/oz), respectively. The sensitivities in the above tables have been determined as the impact of a 10% change in commodity prices at each reporting date, while holding all other variables, including foreign currency exchange rates, constant.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales consists of direct mining costs (which include personnel costs, certain general and administrative costs, energy costs (principally diesel fuel and electricity), maintenance and repair costs, operating supplies, external services, third-party smelting and transport fees), and depreciation related to sales and royalty expenses. Cost of sales is based on the weighted average cost of contained or recoverable ounces sold and royalty expense for the period. Costs also include any impairment to reduce inventory to its net realizable value.

Royalties

Certain of our properties are subject to royalty arrangements based on mineral production at the properties. The primary type of royalty is a net smelter return (NSR) royalty. Under this type of royalty we pay the holder an amount calculated as the royalty percentage multiplied by the value of gold production at market gold prices less third-party smelting, refining and transportation costs. Other types of royalties include:

Ø | Net profits interest (NPI) royalty to other than a government

Ø | Modified net smelter return (NSR) royalty,

Ø | Net smelter return sliding scale (NSRSS) royalty,

Ø | Gross proceeds sliding scale (GPSS) royalty,

Ø | Gross smelter return (GSR) royalty,

Ø | Net value (NV) royalty,

Ø | Land tenement (LT) royalty, and a

Ø | Gold revenue royalty.

Royalty expense is recorded on completion of the production or sales process.

Currency Translation

Deferred tax balances are subject to remeasurement for changes in currency exchange rates each period. The most significant balances are Argentinean deferred tax liabilities. In 2013 and 2012, tax expense of $49 and $46 million respectively primarily arose from translation losses due to the weakening of the Argentinean peso against the US dollar. These losses and gains are included within deferred tax expense/recovery.

Pueblo Viejo Special Lease Agreement (SLA) Amendment

In third quarter 2013, the Pueblo Viejo Special Lease Agreement (SLA) Amendment was substantively enacted. The amendment included the following items: Elimination of a 10 percent return embedded in the initial capital investment for purposes of the net profits tax (NPI); An extension of the period over which Pueblo Viejo will recover its capital investment; A delay of application of NPI deductions; A reduction of the depreciation rates; and the establishment of a graduated minimum tax.

The tax impact of the amendment is a charge of $384 million, comprised of current tax and deferred tax expense, including $36 million of graduated minimum tax related to 2012 sales proceeds.

Non Recognition of US Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) Credits

In fourth quarter 2013, we recorded a deferred tax expense of $48 million related to US AMT credits which are not probable to be realized based on our current life of mine plans.

Tax Rate Changes

In second quarter 2012, a tax rate change was enacted in the province of Ontario, Canada, resulting in a deferred tax recovery of $11 million.

In third quarter 2012, a tax rate change was enacted in Chile, resulting in a current tax expense of $4 million and deferred tax recovery of $15 million.

Amendment in Australia

In fourth quarter 2012, amendments were made to prior year tax returns for one of our Australian consolidated tax groups, based on updated tax pool amounts from the time of the consolidation election. These amendments resulted in a current tax recovery of $44 million and a deferred tax recovery of $14 million.

Foreign Income Tax Assessment

In second quarter 2012, a foreign income tax assessment was received which resulted in a current tax recovery of $19 million.

Functional Currency Changes

In fourth quarter 2012, we received approval to prepare certain of our Papua New Guinea tax returns using US dollar functional currency effective January 1, 2012. This approval resulted in a one-time deferred tax expense of $16 million. Going forward, the material Papua New Guinea tax return will now be filed using a US dollar functional currency.

Ore on leach pads

The recovery of gold and copper from certain oxide ores is achieved through the heap leaching process. Our Pierina, Lagunas Norte, Veladero, Cortez, Bald Mountain, Round Mountain, Ruby Hill and Marigold mines all use a heap leaching process for gold and our Zaldívar mine uses a heap leaching process for copper. Under this method, ore is placed on leach pads where it is treated with a chemical solution, which dissolves the gold or copper contained in the ore. The resulting “pregnant” solution is further processed in a plant where the gold or copper is recovered. For accounting purposes, costs are added to ore on leach pads based on current mining and leaching costs, including applicable depreciation, depletion and amortization relating to mining operations. Costs are removed from ore on leach pads as ounces or pounds are recovered based on the average cost per recoverable ounce of gold or pound of copper on the leach pad.

Estimates of recoverable gold or copper on the leach pads are calculated from the quantities of ore placed on the leach pads (measured tons added to the leach pads), the grade of ore placed on the leach pads (based on assay data) and a recovery percentage (based on ore type).

Although the quantities of recoverable gold or copper placed on the leach pads are reconciled by comparing the grades of ore placed on pads to the quantities of gold or

copper actually recovered (metallurgical balancing), the nature of the leaching process inherently limits the ability to precisely monitor inventory levels. As a result, the metallurgical balancing process is regularly monitored and estimates are refined based on actual results over time. Historically, our operating results have not been materially impacted by variations between the estimated and actual recoverable quantities of gold or copper on our leach pads. At December 31, 2013, the weighted average cost per recoverable ounce of gold and recoverable pound of copper on leach pads was $753 per ounce and $1.28 per pound, respectively (2012: $788 per ounce of gold and $1.15 per pound of copper and January 1, 2012: $653 per ounce and $1.03 per pound). Variations between actual and estimated quantities resulting from changes in assumptions and estimates that do not result in write-downs to net realizable value are accounted for on a prospective basis.

The ultimate recovery of gold or copper from a leach pad will not be known until the leaching process is concluded. Based on current mine plans, we expect to place the last ton of ore on our current leach pads at dates for gold ranging from 2014 to 2026 and for copper in 2028. Including the estimated time required for residual leaching, rinsing and reclamation activities, we expect that our leaching operations will terminate within a period of up to six years following the date that the last ton of ore is placed on the leach pad.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 112 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The current portion of ore inventory on leach pads is determined based on estimates of the quantities of gold or copper at each balance sheet date that we expect to recover during the next 12 months.

B Changes in Gold and Copper Mineral Reserves

At the end of each fiscal year, as part of our annual business cycle, we prepare updated estimates of proven and probable gold and copper mineral reserves for each mineral property. We prospectively revise calculations

of amortization expense for property, plant and equipment amortized using the UOP method, whereby the denominator is estimated recoverable ounces of gold/pounds of copper. The effect of changes in estimated recoverable ounces of gold/pounds of copper based on a $1,500 gold price assumption on amortization expense for 2013 was a $45 million decrease (2012: $51 million decrease). The price for the 2014 LOM plans has been determined on a $1,100 per ounce of gold for the first five years and $1,300 per ounce thereafter, which we will use to calculate amortization expense.

C Capital Commitments and operating leases

In addition to entering into various operational commitments in the normal course of business, we had commitments of approximately $249 million at December 31, 2013 (2012: $1,800 million) for construction activities at our capital projects.

Operating leases are recognized as an operating cost in the consolidated statement of income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. At December 31, 2013, we have operating lease commitments totaling $233 million, of which $26 million is expected to be paid within a year, $106 million is expected to be paid within two to five years and the remaining amount to be paid beyond five years.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 115 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As a result of the reorganization of our operating segments in fourth quarter 2013, we reallocated goodwill, which had previously been recorded in our Regional Business Units (our former operating segments), to the new Operating Units on a relative fair value basis except for Pueblo Viejo, which had specifically identified goodwill from the earlier allocation in 2013. The reorganization of the Operating Units did not result in any indicators of impairment (see note 20). At December 31, 2013, goodwill allocated to each operating segment is as follows:

20 > IMPAIRMENT OF GOODWILL AND NON-CURRENT ASSETS

In accordance with our accounting policy, goodwill is tested for impairment in the fourth quarter and also when there is an indicator of impairment. Non-current assets are tested for impairment when events or changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

When there is an indicator of impairment of non-current assets within an operating segment consisting of a Cash Generating Unit (“CGU”) or group of CGUs that contain goodwill, we test the non-current assets for impairment first and recognize any impairment loss on the non-current assets before testing the operating segment for any potential goodwill impairment. When there is an indicator of impairment of non-current assets within an operating segment consisting of a single CGU that contains goodwill, we test the non-current assets for impairment first and recognize any impairment loss on goodwill first and then any remaining impairment loss is applied against the non-current assets.

An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of each operating segment for goodwill testing purposes has been determined based on its estimated fair value less cost of disposal (“FVLCD”), which has been determined to be greater than the Value in Use (“VIU”) amounts. The recoverable amount for non-current asset testing is calculated using the same approach as for goodwill, however, the assessment is done at the CGU level, which is the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets. A CGU is generally an individual operating mine or development project.

A Summary of impairments

For the year ended December 31, 2013, we recorded impairment losses of $9.9 billion (2012: $5.5 billion) for non-current assets and $2.8 billion (2012: $798 million) for goodwill, as summarized in the following table:

2013 indicators of impairment

Second Quarter 2013

The significant decrease in our long-term gold, silver and copper price assumptions in second quarter 2013, due to declining market prices, as well as the regulatory challenges to Pascua-Lama in May 2013 and the resulting schedule delays and associated capital expenditure increases; and a significant change to the mine plan at our Pierina mine, were all considered indicators of impairment, and, accordingly, we performed an impairment assessment for every mine site and significant advanced development project. As a result of this assessment, we recorded non-current asset impairment losses of $7.1 billion, including a $5.2 billion impairment loss related to the carrying value of the PP&E at Pascua-Lama; $501 million related to the Jabal Sayid project in our copper segment; $874 million related to Buzwagi and North Mara in African Barrick Gold; $236 million related to the Kanowna, Granny Smith, Plutonic and Darlot mines in our Australia Pacific Gold segment; and $140 million related to our Pierina mine in South America.

After reflecting the above non-current asset impairment losses, we conducted goodwill impairment tests and determined that the carrying value of our Copper, Australia Pacific Gold, Capital Projects and African Barrick Gold segments exceeded their FVLCD, and therefore we recorded a total goodwill impairment loss of $2.3 billion. The FVLCD of our copper segment was negatively impacted by the decrease in our long-term copper price assumption in second quarter 2013. The FVLCD of our Australia Pacific Gold segment was negatively impacted by the significant decrease in second quarter 2013 in our long-term gold price assumption. The FVLCD of our Capital Projects segment was negatively impacted by the significant decrease in second quarter 2013 in our long-term gold and silver price assumptions, as well as the schedule delays and associated capital expenditure increase at our Pascua-Lama project. The FVLCD of our African Barrick Gold segment was negatively impacted by significant changes in the life of mine (“LOM”) plans in second quarter 2013 for various assets in the segment, as well as the significant decrease in our long-term gold price assumption.

Third Quarter 2013

In September 2013, we finalized an agreement with the Government of the Dominican Republic (“the Government”) concerning amendments to the SLA. The amendments will result in significant additional and accelerated tax revenues to the Government, and therefore we determined this was an indicator of impairment. Based on our assessment of the economic impact of these amendments, the carrying value of the mine was recoverable as at September 30, 2013.

Fourth Quarter 2013

In fourth quarter 2013, as described below, we identified indicators of impairment at certain of our mines, resulting in non-current asset impairment losses totaling $2.8 billion. As a result of our fourth quarter 2013 decision to temporarily suspend construction of our Pascua-Lama Project, we have recorded a further impairment loss on the project of $896 million, bringing the total impairment loss for Pascua-Lama to $6.1 billion for the full year. At our Porgera mine in Papua New Guinea, we have changed our LOM plan to focus primarily on the higher grade underground mine. The new plan resulted in a decrease in the estimated mine life from 13 to 9 years, and a decrease in the estimated FVLCD of the mine, which has resulted in an impairment loss of $746 million. At our Veladero mine in Argentina, the annual update to the LOM plan, which was completed in fourth quarter 2013, was significantly impacted by the lower gold price assumption as well as the effect of sustained local inflationary pressures on operating and capital costs. The new plan resulted in a reduction of reserves and LOM production. This resulted in a significant decrease in the estimated FVLCD of the mine, and accordingly, we recorded an impairment loss of $462 million. The annual update to the LOM plan resulted in a decrease in the net present value of our Jabal Sayid project, which is the basis for estimating the project’s FVLCD, and was therefore considered an indicator of impairment. Jabal Sayid’s FVLCD was also negatively impacted by the delay in achieving first production as a result of the HCIS compliance requirements and ongoing discussions with the DMMR with respect to the transfer of ownership of the project. As a result, we recorded an impairment loss of $359 million. The annual update to the LOM plan showed a decrease in the net present value at our Round Mountain mine, which was considered to be an indicator of impairment, and we recorded an impairment loss of $78 million. At North Mara, several changes were made to the LOM plan, including a decision to defer Gokona Cut 3, while ABG finalizes a feasibility study into the alternative of mining out this reserve by underground methods. This was considered an indicator of impairment for North Mara, resulting in an impairment loss of $133 million. A wall failure at our Ruby Hill mine in Nevada was also identified as an indicator of impairment, resulting in the impairment of assets specifically related to the open pit of $51 million.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 118 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As at December 31, 2013, four of our mines, namely Plutonic, Kanowna, Marigold and Tulawaka, met the criteria as assets held for sale. Accordingly, we are required to re-measure these CGUs to the lower of carrying value and FVLCD. Using these new re-measured values, resulted in impairment losses of $17 million at Plutonic and $60 million at Marigold. Also, based on the estimated FVLCD of the expected proceeds related to the expected sale of Kanowna, we have reversed $66 million of the impairment loss recorded in second quarter 2013.

After reflecting the above non-current asset impairment losses, we conducted our annual goodwill impairment test, prior to the reorganization of our operating segments, and determined that the carrying value of our Australia Pacific segment exceeded its FVLCD and therefore we recorded a goodwill impairment loss of $551 million bringing the total impairment loss for Australia Pacific Gold goodwill to $1,200 million for the full year. After the reorganization of the operating segments, we did not identify any indicators of impairment.

2012 indicators of impairment

In fourth quarter 2012, we prepared an updated LOM plan for Lumwana, which reflected information obtained from an extensive exploration and infill drilling program that was completed late in the fourth quarter of 2012. The new LOM plan also reflected revised operating and sustaining capital costs. In particular, unit mining costs were determined to be significantly higher than previously estimated. The significant changes in the LOM plan were considered an indicator of impairment, and, accordingly, we performed an impairment assessment for Lumwana as at the end of the 2012. As a result of this assessment, we recorded an impairment loss of $5.0 billion, related to the carrying value of the non-current assets at Lumwana in the fourth quarter of 2012.

In fourth quarter 2012, we also recorded the following impairment losses: $31 million in PP&E impairment losses related to Tulawaka in our ABG segment, primarily as a result of a decrease in the expected remaining mine life in its most recent LOM plan; $120 million related to our equity method investment in Tethyan Copper Company, which holds our interest in the Reko Diq project; and a $46 million write-down of power-related assets at our Pueblo Viejo project, based on new information with respect to the recoverable amount of these assets received in fourth quarter 2012.

Other impairment losses recorded in 2012 included: $165 million related to exploration properties, included in intangible assets, in Papua New Guinea and Saudi Arabia as a result of our decision to cease exploration activities ($141 million in Papua New Guinea in third quarter 2012 and $24 million in Saudi Arabia in fourth quarter 2012); and $84 million related to our equity method investment in Highland Gold as a result of the disposition of our equity interest in first quarter 2012.

After reflecting the above non-current asset losses, we conducted our goodwill impairment tests and determined that the carrying value of our copper segment exceeded its FVLCD, and therefore we recorded a goodwill impairment loss of $798 million. The FVLCD of our copper segment was impacted by increases in expected future operating and capital costs.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 119 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Key assumptions

The key assumptions and estimates used in determining the FVLCD are related to commodity prices, discount rates, NAV multiples for gold assets, operating costs, exchange rates and capital expenditures. In addition, assumptions related to comparable entities, market values per ounce and per pound and the inclusion of reserves and resources in market multiples calculations are used.

Gold

For the gold segments, excluding Pascua-Lama, FVLCD for each of the CGUs was determined by calculating the net present value (“NPV”) of the future cash flows expected to be generated by the mines and projects within the segments. The estimates of future cash flows were derived from the most recent LOM plans and, where the LOM plans excludes a material portion of total reserves and resources, we assign value to resources not considered in these base models. These values are then aggregated to the segment level, the level at which goodwill is tested. Based on observable market or publicly available data, including spot and forward prices and equity sell-side analyst forecasts, we make an assumption of future gold and silver prices to estimate future revenues. The future cash flows for each gold mine are discounted using a real weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”), which reflects specific market risk factors for each mine. Some gold companies trade at a market capitalization greater than the NPV of their expected cash flows. Market participants describe this as a “NAV multiple”, which represents the multiple applied to the NPV to arrive at the trading price. The NAV multiple is generally understood to take account of a variety of additional value factors such as the exploration potential of the mineral property, namely the ability to find and produce more metal than what is currently included in the LOM plan or reserve and resource estimates, and the benefit of gold price optionality. As a result, we applied a specific NAV multiple to the NPV of each CGU within each gold segment based on the NAV multiples observed in the market in recent periods and that we judged to be appropriate to the CGU.

Pascua-Lama

The fair value for Pascua-Lama was determined by considering both the NPV, determined consistent with our gold CGUs, as well as market multiples expressed as dollar per ounce of proven and probable reserves based on observed market metrics for comparable assets. Both these approaches were used, with the market approach being the primary method as the LOM for Pascua-Lama has uncertainty due to adjustments to reflect the updated estimated timeline for the project that existed at the time of the testing. The observable market multiples were adjusted, where appropriate, for country risk if the comparable asset was in a different country and any change in metal prices since the valuation date of the comparable asset.

Copper

For our Copper segment, the FVLCD for each of the CGUs was determined based on the NPV of future cash flows expected to be generated using the most recent LOM plans aggregated to the segment level. Based on observable market or publicly available data including spot and forward prices and equity sell-side analyst consensus, we make an assumption of future copper prices to estimate future revenues. The future cash flows for each copper mine were discounted using a WACC depending on the location and market risk factors for each mine. Fair value for Lumwana was also estimated by considering market multiples expressed as dollar per pound based primarily on the observed valuation metrics for comparable assets. Both these approaches were used as the LOM for Lumwana has uncertainty due to the on-going optimization program to generate additional value from the LOM. The observable market multiples were adjusted where appropriate for country risk if the comparable asset was in a different country and any change in metal prices since the valuation date of the comparable asset.

The key assumptions used in our impairment testing are summarized in the table below:

|  | Fourth Quarter 2013 |  |  | Fourth Quarter 2012 |
Gold price per oz |  |  | $1,300 |  |  |  | $1,700 |

ARS:USD exchange rate |  |  | 8.5 – 10.0 |  |  |  | 5.0 – 5.5 |

1 | In our LOM plans we used $1,100/oz for the first 5 years and $1,300/oz thereafter.

Sensitivities

We performed a sensitivity analysis on commodity price, which is the key assumption that impacts the impairment calculations. We assumed a negative 10% change for the assumption, taking sales price from $1,300 per ounce down to $1,170 per ounce for gold, $3.25 per pound down to $2.93 per pound for copper and $23 per ounce to $20.70 per ounce for silver, while holding all other assumptions constant. We note that this sensitivity identifies the key assets where the decrease in the sales price, in isolation, could cause the carrying value of our operating segments to exceed its recoverable amount for the purposes of the goodwill impairment test or the carrying value of any of our CGUs to exceed its recoverable amount for the purposes of the non-current asset impairment test where an indicator of impairment for the non-current asset was identified.

Should there be a significant decline in commodity prices, we would take actions to assess the implications on our life of mine plans, including the determination of reserves and resources, and the appropriate cost structure for the operating segments. The recoverable amount of the operating segments and CGUs would also be impacted by other market factors such as changes in net asset value multiples and the value per ounce/pound of comparable market entities. Based on the results of the impairment testing performed in fourth quarter 2013, the carrying value of the operating segments and CGUs that are most sensitive to the change in sales prices used in the test are:

As at December 31, 2013 |  | Carrying value |  |  | Decrease in fair value with a 10% decrease in sales price |
Copper segment1 |  |  | $ 5,299 |  |  |  | $ 1,700 |
Australia Pacific segment1 |  |  | 1,488 |  |  |  | 850 |
Cerro Casale |  |  | 1,514 |  |  |  | 1,200 |
Veladero1 |  |  | 1,009 |  |  |  | 600 |
Lumwana1 |  |  | 1,008 |  |  |  | 850 |
Jabal Sayid1 |  |  | 711 |  |  |  | 80 |
Porgera1 |  |  | 393 |  |  |  | 390 |
North Mara1 |  |  | 369 |  |  |  | 130 |
Round Mountain1 |  |  | 166 |  |  |  | 150 |

1 | These operating segments/CGUs have been impaired in either 2012 or 2013 and therefore their fair value approximates carrying value.

In addition, for our Pascua-Lama project, we have determined our valuation primarily based on a market approach. The key assumption that impacts the impairment calculations, should there be an indication of impairment for this CGU, is the value per ounce of gold and silver based on an analysis of comparable companies. We assumed a negative 10% change for the assumption of gold and silver value per ounce, while holding all other assumptions constant and, based on the results of the impairment testing performed in fourth quarter 2013 for Pascua-Lama, the fair value of the CGU would have been reduced from $1.2 billion to $1.1 billion (December 31, 2013 carrying value: $1.2 billion). We note that this sensitivity identifies the decrease in the value that, in isolation, would cause the carrying value of the CGU to exceed its recoverable amount. For Pascua-Lama, this value decrease is linear to the decrease in value per ounce.

Pueblo Viejo Project Financing Agreement

In April 2010, Barrick and Goldcorp finalized terms for $1.035 billion (100% basis) in project financing for Pueblo Viejo. The project financing is non-recourse subject to guarantees provided by Barrick and Goldcorp for their proportionate share which will terminate upon Pueblo Viejo meeting certain operating completion tests and are subject to an exclusion for certain political risk events. The lending syndicate is comprised of international financial institutions including export development agencies and commercial banks. The amount is divided into three tranches of $400 million, $375 million and $260 million with tenors of 15, 15 and 12 years, respectively. The $400 million tranche bears a coupon of LIBOR+3.25% pre-completion and scales gradually to LIBOR+5.10% (inclusive of political risk insurance premium) for years 13-15. The $375 million tranche bears a fixed coupon of 3.86% for the entire 15 years. The $260 million tranche bears a coupon of LIBOR+3.25% pre-completion and scales gradually to LIBOR+4.85% (inclusive of political risk insurance premium) for years 11-12.

We have drawn the entire $1.035 billion to date. During the year, $45 million of loans was repaid. The remaining principal balance under the Pueblo Viejo Financing Agreement is $990 million.

Credit Facility

We had a credit and guarantee agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with certain Lenders which required such lenders to make available to us a credit facility of up to $1.45 billion ($1.5 billion prior to second quarter 2012) or the equivalent amount in Canadian dollars. We drew $1.5 billion on the Credit Facility in 2011 to finance a portion of the Equinox acquisition, including the payment of related fees and expenses. The Credit Facility, which was unsecured, had an interest rate of LIBOR plus 0.25% to 0.35% on drawn down amounts, and a commitment rate of 0.07% to 0.08% on undrawn amounts. $50 million matured in the second quarter of 2012 and an additional $250 million was repaid during the second quarter of 2012. The remaining $1.2 billion was repaid in 2013. Subsequent to the repayment, we terminated the Credit Facility.

Refinancing of the Credit Facility

In January 2012, we finalized a credit and guarantee agreement (the “2012 Credit Facility”) with certain Lenders, which requires such Lenders to make available to us a credit facility of $4.0 billion or the equivalent amount in Canadian dollars. The 2012 Credit Facility, which is unsecured, currently has an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.50% on drawn amounts, and a commitment rate of 0.25% on undrawn amounts. The $4.0 billion facility matures in 2019. In first quarter 2013, we drew $2.0 billion on our $4.0 billion revolving credit facility (“2012 Credit Facility”), using the proceeds to repay $1.2 billion on our $1.45 billion credit facility, which expired in April 2013. In second quarter 2013, we issued $3.0 billion of debt, using $2.0 billion of the net proceeds to repay the outstanding balance on the 2012 Credit Facility. The 2012 Credit Facility is undrawn as at December 31, 2013.

2.50%/4.10%/5.75% notes

On May 2, 2013, we issued an aggregate of $3 billion in notes through our wholly-owned indirect subsidiary Barrick

We provided an unconditional and irrevocable guarantee of these payments, which will rank equally with our other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations.

During the year, $398 million of the $650 million 2.50% notes were repaid.

ABG Credit Facility

In January 2013, ABG concluded negotiations with a group of commercial banks for the provision of an export credit backed term loan facility (“Facility”) for the amount of US$142 million. The Facility has been put in place to fund a substantial portion of the construction costs of the new CIL circuit at the process plant at the Bulyanhulu Project (“Project”). The Facility is collateralized by the Project, has a term of seven years and, when drawn, the spread over Libor will be 250 basis points. The Facility is repayable in equal installments over the term of the Facility, after a two year repayment holiday period. The interest rate has been fixed at an effective rate of 3.6% through the use of an interest rate swap. At December 31, 2013, the full value of the Facility has been drawn.

Debt Issue Costs

In 2013, a total of $30 million of debt issue costs arose from debt issued during the year. In 2012, a total of $15 million of debt issue costs arose from debt issued during the year.

C Derivative Instruments (“Derivatives”)

In the normal course of business, our assets, liabilities and forecasted transactions, as reported in US dollars, are impacted by various market risks including, but not limited to:

Item |  | Impacted by
Ÿ Sales |  | Ÿ Prices of gold, silver and copper
¡ By-product credits |  | ¡ Prices of silver, copper and gold
Ÿ Cost of sales |  |
¡ Consumption of diesel fuel, propane, natural gas, and electricity |  | ¡ Prices of diesel fuel, propane, natural gas, and electricity
¡ Non-US dollar expenditures |  | ¡ Currency exchange rates – US dollar versus A$, ARS, C$, CLP, EUR, JPY, PGK, TZS, ZAR, and ZMW
Ÿ Corporate and operating segment administration, exploration and evaluation costs |  | Ÿ Currency exchange rates – US dollar versus A$, ARS, C$, CLP, GBP, JPY, PGK, TZS and ZAR
Ÿ Capital expenditures |  |
¡ Non-US dollar capital expenditures |  | ¡ Currency exchange rates – US dollar versus A$, ARS, C$, CLP, EUR, GBP, PGK and ZAR
¡ Consumption of steel |  | ¡ Price of steel
Ÿ Interest earned on cash and equivalents |  | Ÿ US dollar interest rates
Ÿ Interest paid on fixed-rate borrowings |  | Ÿ US dollar interest rates

The time frame and manner in which we manage those risks varies for each item based upon our assessment of the risk and available alternatives for mitigating risk. For these particular risks, we believe that derivatives are an appropriate way of managing the risk.

We use derivatives as part of our risk management program to mitigate variability associated with changing market values related to the hedged item. Many of the derivatives we use meet the hedge effectiveness criteria and are designated in a hedge accounting relationship.

Certain derivatives are designated as either hedges of the fair value of recognized assets or liabilities or of firm commitments (“fair value hedges”) or hedges of highly probable forecasted transactions (“cash flow hedges”), collectively known as “accounting hedges”. Hedges that are expected to be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine that they actually have been highly effective throughout the financial reporting periods for which they were designated. Some of the derivative instruments we use are effective in achieving our risk management objectives, but they do not meet the strict hedge accounting criteria. These derivatives are considered to be “non-hedge derivatives”. We also enter into derivative instruments with the objective of realizing trading gains to increase our reported net income. These derivatives are also considered to be “non-hedge derivatives”.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 128 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of December 31, 2013, we had 22 counterparties to our derivative positions. We proactively manage our exposure to individual counterparties in order to mitigate both credit and liquidity risks. For those counterparties with which we hold a net asset position (total balance attributable to the counterparties is $19 million), six hold greater than 10% of our mark-to-market asset position, with the largest counterparty holding 30%. We have 15 counterparties with which we are in a net liability position, for a total net liability of $78 million. On an ongoing basis, we monitor our exposures and ensure that none of the counterparties with which we hold outstanding contracts has declared insolvency.

US Dollar Interest Rate Contracts

Fair Value Hedges

We have $200 million of pay-variable receive-fixed swap positions outstanding that are used to hedge changes in the fair value of a portion of our long-term fixed-rate debt. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the swap contracts is recorded in interest expense. Gains and losses from hedge ineffectiveness are recognized in current earnings, classified in the consolidated statement of income as gains/losses) on non-hedge derivatives.

Cash Flow Hedges

During the year, ABG entered into pay-fixed receive-float interest rate swaps to hedge the floating rate debt associated with the Bulyanhulu plant expansion. These contracts, designated as cash flow hedges, convert the floating rate debt as it is drawn against the financing agreement. At December 31, 2013, we had $142 million in positions outstanding.

Currency Contracts

Cash Flow Hedges

During the year, currency contracts totaling A$ 65 million, C$ 319 million, CLP 16 billion, and ZAR 171 million have been designated against forecasted non-US dollar denominated expenditures, some of which are hedges which matured within the year. In total, we have A$ 585 million, C$ 415 million, CLP 89 billion and ZAR 171 million designated as cash flow hedges of our anticipated operating, administrative and sustaining capital spend. The outstanding contracts hedge the variability of the US dollar amount of those expenditures caused by changes in currency exchange rates over the next five years. The effective portion of changes in fair value of the currency contracts is recorded in OCI until the forecasted expenditure impacts earnings. Gains and losses from hedge ineffectiveness are recognized in current earnings classified in the consolidated statement of income as gains (losses) on non-hedge derivatives.

During the year, we sold back and effectively closed out approximately A$990 million of our Australian dollar forward contracts as a loss mitigation strategy. No cash settlement occurred and payments will net at maturity (2013 – 2016). We crystallized losses of approximately $25 million, which will be recognized in the consolidated statement of income based on the original hedge contract maturity dates. At December 31, 2013, $19 million of these losses remain crystallized in OCI. Including Australian dollar contracts closed out in the previous year, $87 million of gains remain crystallized in OCI at December 31, 2013.

During the year, we also unwound approximately CLP 500 billion of our Chilean peso hedges. We realized net cash proceeds of approximately $50 million with $18 million being crystallized in OCI. Any unrealized change and realized gain/losses on ineffective amounts or time value have been recognized in the consolidated statement of income as gains on non-hedge derivatives. At December 31, 2013, $9 million of gains remains crystallized in OCI.

Non-hedge Derivatives

We concluded that CLP 71 billion of derivatives contracts do not meet the strict hedge effectiveness criteria. These contracts represent an economic hedge of operating and administrative expenses at various South American locations, including operating mines and projects. Also, ZAR 1,177 million represents an economic hedge of ABG’s anticipated operating, capital and administrative spending at various locations in Africa. Although not qualifying as accounting hedges, the contracts provide protection against the variability of CLP and ZAR to the US dollar. The remaining non-hedge currency contracts are used to mitigate the variability of the US dollar amount of non-US dollar denominated exposures that do not meet the strict hedge effectiveness criteria. Changes in the fair value of the non-hedge currency contracts are recorded in the consolidated statement of income as gains (losses) on non-hedge derivatives.

During the year, we wrote AUD and CAD options with no outstanding notional amount at December 31, 2013. As a result of these activities we earned $2 million in premium income during the year, which is recognized in the consolidated statement of income as gains on non-hedge derivatives.

Commodity Contracts

Diesel/Propane/Electricity/Natural Gas

Non-hedge Derivatives

During the year, we entered into 5,400 thousand barrels of WTI, 480 thousand barrels of sold Brent-WTI swaps, and 144 thousand barrels of Brent to economically hedge our

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 129 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

exposure to forecasted fuel purchases for expected consumption at our mines. In total, on a combined basis we have 7,644 thousand barrels of WTI and Brent swaps outstanding that economically hedge our exposure to forecasted fuel purchases at our mines.

Metals Contracts

Cash Flow Hedges

During the year, we purchased 148 million pounds of copper collar contracts to designate as hedges against copper cathode sales at our Zaldivar mine for 2013. These contracts contained purchased put and sold call options with weighted average strike prices of $3.50/lb and $4.25/lb, respectively. We also purchased 251 million pounds of copper collars for 2014 which mature evenly through 2014. These contracts contain purchased put and sold call options with weighted average strike prices of $3.00/lb and $3.75/lb respectively. At December 31, 2013, 232 million pounds are classified as cash flow hedges with the remainder serving as economic hedges of our Lumwana mine. These contracts were designated as cash flow hedges, with the effective portion of the hedge recognized in OCI and the ineffective portion, together with the changes in time value, recognized in non-hedge derivative gains (losses). Provided that spot copper price remains within the collar band, any unrealized gain (loss) on the collar will be attributable to time value.

During the year, we early terminated 65 million ounces of silver hedges. We realized net cash proceeds of approximately $190 million with $21 million remaining crystallized in OCI to be recognized in revenue as the exposure occurs. Any unrealized changes and realized gains/losses on ineffective amounts or time value have been recognized in the consolidated statements of income as gains on non-hedge derivatives.

During the year, we recorded unrealized losses on our copper collars and silver collars of $17 million and $36 million, respectively, due to changes in time value. This was included in current period earnings as gains on non-hedge derivative activities. Gains and losses from hedge ineffectiveness and time value of options, which are generally excluded, are recognized in the consolidated statement of income as gains on non-hedge derivatives.

Non-Hedge Derivatives

We enter into purchased and written contracts with the primary objective of increasing the realized price on some of our gold sales. During the year, we wrote gold put and call options with an average outstanding notional of 16 thousand ounces. As a result of these activities, we recorded $1 million in the consolidated statement of income as gains on non-hedge derivatives. There are no outstanding gold positions at December 31, 2013.

25 > FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, inputs other than quoted

prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rate and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, forward pricing curves used to value currency and commodity contracts and volatility measurements used to value option contracts), or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data or other means. Level 3 inputs are unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

Valuation Techniques

Cash Equivalents

The fair value of our cash equivalents is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices in active markets. Our cash equivalents are comprised of U.S. Treasury bills and money market securities that are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury bills.

Available-for-Sale Securities

The fair value of available-for-sale securities is determined based on the closing price of each security at the balance sheet date. The closing price is a quoted market price obtained from the exchange that is the principal active market for the particular security, and therefore available-

for-sale securities are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of derivative instruments is determined using either present value techniques or option pricing models that utilize a variety of inputs that are a combination of quoted prices and market-corroborated inputs. The fair value of all our derivative contracts includes an adjustment for credit risk. For counterparties in a net asset position, credit risk is based upon the observed credit default swap spread for each particular counterparty, as appropriate. For counterparties in a net liability position, credit risk is based upon Barrick’s observed credit default swap spread. The fair value of US dollar interest rate and currency swap contracts is determined by

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 134 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

discounting contracted cash flows using a discount rate derived from observed LIBOR and swap rate curves and CDS rates. In the case of currency contracts, we convert non-US dollar cash flows into US dollars using an exchange rate derived from currency swap curves and CDS rates. The fair value of commodity forward contracts is determined by discounting contractual cash flows using a discount rate derived from observed LIBOR and swap rate curves and CDS rates. Contractual cash flows are calculated using a forward pricing curve derived from observed forward prices for each commodity. Derivative instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Receivables from Provisional Copper and Gold Sales

The fair value of receivables arising from copper and gold sales contracts that contain provisional pricing mechanisms is determined using the appropriate quoted forward price from the exchange that is the principal active market for the particular metal. As such, these receivables, which meet the definition of an embedded derivative, are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Goodwill and intangibles

The fair value of property, plant and equipment, goodwill and intangibles is determined primarily using an income approach based on unobservable cash flows and a market multiples approach where applicable, and as a result is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Refer to note 20 for disclosure of inputs used to develop these measures.

The eventual settlement of all PERs is expected to take place between 2014 and 2054.

The PER has increased from third quarter 2013 by $316 million primarily due to changes in cost estimates, partially offset by changes in discount rates. For the full year ended December 31, 2013, our PER balance decreased by $304 million, primarily due to an increase in the discount rate used to calculate the PER and due to the divestiture of various sites as well as our oil and gas business that occurred in 2013. The offset was recorded as an increase in PP&E for our operations and other expense at our closed sites. A 1% increase in the discount rate would result in a decrease of PER by $266 million and a 1% decrease in the discount rate would result in an increase in PER by $332 million, while holding the other assumptions constant.

27 > FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Our financial instruments are comprised of financial liabilities and financial assets. Our principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise accounts payable and debt. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to manage short-term cash flow and raise funds for our capital expenditure program. Our principal financial assets, other than derivative instruments, are cash and equivalents and accounts receivable, which arise directly from our operations. In the normal course of business, we use derivative instruments to mitigate exposure to various financial risks.

We manage our exposure to key financial risks in accordance with our financial risk management policy. The objective of the policy is to support the delivery of our financial targets while protecting future financial security. The main risks that could adversely affect our financial assets, liabilities or future cash flows are as follows:

a) | Market risk, including commodity price risk, foreign currency and interest rate risk;

b) | Credit risk;

c) | Liquidity risk; and

d) | Capital risk management.

Management designs strategies for managing each of these risks, which are summarized below. Our senior management oversees the management of financial risks. Our senior management ensures that our financial risk-taking activities are governed by policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with our policies and our risk appetite. All derivative activities for risk management purposes are carried out by the appropriate functions.

a) Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market factors, such as commodity prices, foreign exchange rates or interest rates, will affect the value of our financial instruments. We manage market risk by either accepting it or mitigating it through the use of derivatives and other economic hedging strategies.

Commodity Price Risk

Gold and Copper

We sell our gold and copper production in the world market. The market prices of gold and copper are the primary drivers of our profitability and ability to generate both operating and free cash flow. All of our future gold production is unhedged in order to provide our shareholders with full exposure to changes in the market gold price. Our corporate treasury function implements hedging strategies on an opportunistic basis to protect us from downside price risk on our copper production. We have put in place floor protection on approximately half of our expected copper production for 2014 at an average floor price of $3.00 per pound. In addition, we have sold an equal amount of call options at an average price of $3.75 per pound. Our remaining copper production is subject to market prices.

Silver

During the year, we terminated all of our silver hedges and as a result, changes in the expected long-term price of silver have a significant impact on the estimated fair value of the Pascua-Lama project.

Fuel

On average we consume approximately 5 million barrels of diesel fuel annually across all our mines. Diesel fuel is refined from crude oil and is therefore subject to the same price volatility affecting crude oil prices. Therefore, volatility in crude oil prices has a significant direct and indirect impact on our production costs. To mitigate this volatility, we employ a strategy of using financial contracts to hedge our exposure to oil prices.

The table below summarizes the impact of changes in the market price on gold, copper, silver and oil. The impact is expressed in terms of the resulting change in our net earnings for the year or, where applicable, the change in equity. The sensitivities are based on the assumption that the market price changes by 10% with all other variables held constant.

1 | Represents unrealized gains (losses) attributable to changes in fair value of the silver collars.

Foreign Currency Risk

The functional and reporting currency for our gold and copper segments and Pascua-Lama is the US dollar and we report our results using the US dollar. The majority of our operating and capital expenditures are denominated and settled in US dollars. We have exposure to the Australian dollar and Canadian dollar through a combination of mine operating costs and corporate administration costs; and to the Papua New Guinea kina, Peruvian sol, Chilean peso, Argentinean peso, Dominican Republic peso and Zambian kwacha through mine operating costs. Consequently, fluctuations in the US dollar exchange rate against these currencies increase the volatility of cost of sales, corporate administration costs and overall net earnings, when translated into US dollars. To mitigate these inherent risks and provide greater certainty over our costs, we have foreign currency hedges in place for some of our Australian and Canadian dollar exposures as well as a portion of our Chilean peso exposures. In second quarter 2013, the Company unwound approximately CLP 500 billion of our Chilean peso hedges. In third quarter 2012, the Company unwound approximately $2.6 billion of our Australian dollar hedges and, in 2013, the Company unwound a further $990 million of our Australian dollar forward contracts. As a result, we now have greater exposure to fluctuations in the value of the Chilean pesos and Australian dollars compared to the US dollar.

The following table shows gains (losses) associated with a 10% change in exchange rate of the Australian dollar:

|  | Average Exchange Rate |  |  | Effect on Net Earnings |  |  | Effect on Equity |

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk refers to the risk that the value of a financial instrument or cash flows associated with the instruments will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates. Currently, our interest rate exposure mainly relates to interest receipts on our cash balances ($2.4 billion at the end of the year); the mark-to-market value of derivative instruments; the fair value and ongoing payments under US dollar interest-rate swaps; and to the interest payments on our variable-rate debt ($1.2 billion at December 31, 2013).

The following table shows the approximate interest rate sensitivities of our financial assets and liabilities as at December 31:

Impact of a 1% change in interest rate

|  | Effect on Net Earnings |  |  | Effect on Equity |
|  | 2013 |  |  | 2012 |  |  | 2013 |  |  | 2012 |

1% decrease |  |  | (6) |  |  |  | 2 |  |  |  | (6) |  |  |  | 2 |

b) Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk that a third party might fail to fulfill its performance obligations under the terms of a financial instrument. Credit risk arises from cash and equivalents, trade and other receivables as well as derivative assets.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 137 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For cash and equivalents and trade and other receivables, credit risk exposure equals the carrying amount on the balance sheet, net of any overdraft positions. To mitigate our inherent exposure to credit risk we maintain policies to limit the concentration of credit risk, review counterparty creditworthiness on a monthly basis, and ensure liquidity of available funds. We also invest our cash and equivalents in highly rated financial institutions, primarily within the United States and other investment grade countries1. Furthermore, we sell our gold and copper production into the world market and to private customers with strong credit ratings. Historically customer defaults have not had a significant impact on our operating results or financial position.

For derivatives with a positive fair value, we are exposed to credit risk equal to the carrying value. When the fair value of a derivative is negative, we assume no credit risk. We mitigate credit risk on derivatives by:

— |  | Entering into derivatives with high credit-quality counterparties;

— |  | Limiting the amount of net exposure with each counterparty; and

— |  | Monitoring the financial condition of counterparties on a regular basis.

The company’s maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying value of each of the financial assets disclosed as follows:

|  | As at Dec. 31, 2013 |  |  | As at Dec. 31, 2012 (restated) |  |  | As at Jan. 1, 2012 (restated) |
Cash and equivalents |  |  | $ 2,404 |  |  |  | $ 2,097 |  |  |  | $ 2,749 |
Accounts receivable |  |  | 385 |  |  |  | 449 |  |  |  | 426 |
Net derivative assets by counterparty |  |  | 19 |  |  |  | 282 |  |  |  | 901 |
|  |  | $ 2,808 |  |  |  | $ 2,828 |  |  |  | $ 4,076 |

1 | Investment grade countries include Canada, Chile, Australia, and Peru. Investment grade countries are defined as being rated BBB- or higher by S&P.

c) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk of loss from not having access to sufficient funds to meet both expected and unexpected cash demands. We manage our exposure to liquidity risk by maintaining cash reserves, access to undrawn credit facilities and access to public debt markets, by staggering the maturities of outstanding debt instruments to mitigate refinancing risk and by monitoring of forecast and actual cash flows. Details of the undrawn credit facility are included in Note 24.

Our capital structure comprises a mix of debt and shareholders’ equity. As at December 31, 2013, our total debt was $13.1 billion (debt net of cash and equivalents was $10.7 billion) compared to total debt as at December 31, 2012 of $13.9 billion (debt net of cash and equivalents was $11.8 billion) and at January 1, 2012 of $13.4 billion (debt net of cash and equivalents was $10.6 billion).

In 2013, we made a number of changes to our capital structure. In first quarter 2013, we drew $2.0 billion on our $4.0 billion revolving credit facility (“2012 Credit Facility”), using the proceeds to repay $1.2 billion on our $1.45 billion credit facility, which expired in April 2013. In second quarter 2013, we issued $3.0 billion of debt, using $2.0 billion of the net proceeds to repay the outstanding balance on the 2012 Credit Facility. In fourth quarter 2013, we issued new equity for net proceeds of $2.9 billion, using $2.6 billion of those proceeds to redeem outstanding debt with near-term maturities. The net effect of these transactions was to repay all amounts outstanding under our credit facilities and significantly reduce other near term debt maturities with approximately $300 million maturing in the next two years and a total of approximately $1 billion due in the next 4 years (refer to note 24 for further details). The $4.0 billion credit facility was fully undrawn at year end and the termination date has been extended by one year such that the facility now expires in January 2019.

As part of our disciplined capital allocation strategy, we are constantly evaluating our capital expenditures and making reductions where the risk-adjusted returns do not justify the investment. Since the beginning of 2013, we have also made divestments of non-core assets and assets that do not meet our investment criteria, such as the sale of our oil & gas business and certain of our Australian assets for total cash proceeds of approximately $565 million and we are anticipating receiving aggregate cash proceeds of approximately $153 million in connection with our announced sales of Kanowna and Marigold. In July 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized reducing the quarterly dividend to $0.05 per share as a further prudent step to improve liquidity (The declaration and payment of dividends is at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on the Company’s financial results, cash requirements, future prospects and other factors deemed relevant by the Board).

Our primary source of liquidity is our operating cash flow. Other options to enhance liquidity include drawing the $4.0 billion available under our 2012 Credit Facility (subject to compliance with covenants and the making of certain representations and warranties, this facility is available for

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 138 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

drawdown as a source of financing), further asset sales and issuances of debt or equity securities in the public markets or to private investors, which could be undertaken for liquidity enhancement and/or in connection with establishing a strategic partnership. Many factors, including, but not limited to, general market conditions and then prevailing metals prices could impact our ability to issue securities on acceptable terms, as could our credit ratings. Moody’s and S&P rate our long-term debt Baa2 and BBB, respectively. Changes in our ratings could affect the trading prices of our securities and our cost of capital. If we were to borrow under our 2012 Credit Facility, the applicable interest rate on the amounts borrowed would be based, in part, on our credit ratings at the time. The key financial covenant in the 2012 Credit Facility (undrawn as at December 31, 2013) requires Barrick to maintain a consolidated tangible net

worth (“CTNW”) of at least $3.0 billion (Barrick’s CTNW was $7.1 billion as at December 31, 2013).

The following table outlines the expected maturity of our significant financial assets and liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period from the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date. As the amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows, these balances may not agree with the amounts disclosed in the balance sheet.

d) Capital Risk Management

Our objective when managing capital is to provide value for shareholders by maintaining an optimal short-term and long-term capital structure in order to reduce the overall cost of capital while preserving our ability to continue as a going concern. Our capital management objectives are to safeguard our ability to support our operating requirements on an ongoing basis, continue the development and exploration of our mineral properties and support any expansion plans. Our objectives are also to ensure that we maintain a strong balance sheet and optimize the use of debt and equity to support our business and provide financial flexibility in order to maximize shareholder value. We define capital as total debt less cash and equivalents and it is managed by management subject to approved policies and limits by the Board of Directors. We have no significant financial covenants or capital requirements with our lenders or other parties other than what is discussed under liquidity risk section of note 27.

Silver Sale Agreement

On September 22, 2009, we entered into an agreement with Silver Wheaton Corp (“Silver Wheaton”). to sell the amount equal to 25% of the life of mine silver production from the Pascua-Lama project and 100% of silver production from the Lagunas Norte, Pierina and Veladero mines (“South American mines”) until the end of 2013. In return, we were entitled to an upfront cash payment of $625 million payable over three years from the date of the agreement, as well as ongoing payments in cash of the lesser of $3.90 (subject to an annual inflation adjustment of 1% starting three years after project completion at Pascua-Lama) and the prevailing market price for each ounce of silver delivered under the agreement.

During 2012 we received the final cash payment from the agreement of $137.5 million. An imputed interest expense is being recorded on the liability at the rate implicit in the agreement. The liability plus imputed interest will be

amortized based on the difference between the effective contract price for silver and the amount of the ongoing cash payment per ounce of silver delivered under the agreement.

We had provided Silver Wheaton with a completion guarantee, requiring us to complete Pascua-Lama to at least 75% design capacity by December 31, 2015. During 2014 and 2015, Silver Wheaton will be entitled to the silver production from the South American mines to the extent of any production shortfall at Pascua Lama, until we satisfy the completion guarantee. Per the terms of the original silver purchase agreement, if the requirements of the completion guarantee have not been satisfied by December 31, 2015, the agreement may be terminated by Silver Wheaton, in which case Silver Wheaton will be entitled to the return of the upfront cash consideration paid less a credit for silver delivered up to the date of that event.

In 2013, Silver Wheaton agreed to extend the completion date for Pascua-Lama to December 31, 2017 and will continue to receive silver production from the South American mines until December 31, 2016. At December 31, 2013, the cash obligation was $365 million.

29 > DEFERRED INCOME TAXES

Recognition and Measurement

We record deferred income tax assets and liabilities where temporary differences exist between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in our balance sheet and their tax bases. The measurement and recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities takes into account: substantively enacted rates that will apply when temporary differences reverse; interpretations of relevant tax legislation; estimates of the tax bases of assets and liabilities; and the deductibility of expenditures for income tax purposes. In addition the measurement and recognition of deferred tax assets takes into account tax planning strategies. We recognize the effect of changes in our assessment of these estimates and factors when they occur. Changes in deferred income tax assets and liabilities are allocated between net income, other comprehensive income, and goodwill based on the source of the change.

Current income taxes of $47 million have been provided on the undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries. Deferred income taxes have not been provided on the undistributed earnings of all other foreign subsidiaries for which we are able to control the timing of the remittance, and it is probable that there will be no remittance in the foreseeable future. These undistributed earnings amounted to $7,543 million as at December 31, 2013.

Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets

We recognize deferred tax assets taking into account the effects of local tax law. Deferred tax assets are fully recognized when we conclude that sufficient positive evidence exists to demonstrate that it is probable that a deferred tax asset will be realized. The main factors considered are:

— |  | Historic and expected future levels of taxable income;

— |  | Tax plans that affect whether tax assets can be realized; and

— |  | The nature, amount and expected timing of reversal of taxable temporary differences.

Levels of future income are mainly affected by: market gold, copper and silver prices; forecasted future costs and expenses to produce gold and copper reserves; quantities of proven and probable gold and copper reserves; market interest rates; and foreign currency exchange rates. If these factors or other circumstances change, we record an adjustment to the recognition of deferred assets to reflect our latest assessment of the amount of deferred tax assets that is probable will be realized.

A deferred income tax asset totaling $322 million has been recorded in Canada. This deferred tax asset primarily arose due to mark-to-market losses realized for acquired Placer Dome derivative instruments recognized on the acquisition in 2006. Projections of various sources of income support the conclusion that the realizability of this deferred tax asset is probable and consequently, we have fully recognized this deferred tax asset.

1 If reversed, the total amount of $51 million would be recognized as a benefit to income taxes on the income statement, and therefore would impact the reported effective tax rate.

We anticipate the amount of income tax related contingent liabilities to decrease within 12 months of the reporting date by approximately $2 million to $3 million, related primarily to the expected settlement of income tax and mining tax assessments.

We further anticipate that it is reasonably possible for the amount of income tax related contingent liabilities to decrease within 12 months of the reporting date by approximately $46 million through a potential settlement with tax authorities that may result in a reduction of available tax pools.

The project financing agreement contains covenants which limit certain activities by Pueblo Viejo Dominicana, including Pueblo Viejo’s ability to sell assets and incur debt.

33 > STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

A Stock Options

Under Barrick’s stock option plan, certain officers and key employees of the Corporation may purchase common shares at an exercise price that is equal to the closing share price on the day before the grant of the option. The grant date is the date when the details of the award, including the number of options granted by individual and the exercise price, are approved. Stock options vest evenly over four years, beginning in the year after granting. Options granted in July 2004 and prior are exercisable over 10 years, whereas options granted since December 2004 are exercisable over seven years. At December 31, 2013, 6.5

million (2012: 6.9 million) common shares were available for granting options.

Compensation expense for stock options was $8 million in 2013 (2012: $16 million), and is presented as a component of corporate administration and operating segment administration, consistent with the classification of other elements of compensation expense for those employees who had stock options. The recognition of compensation expense for stock options reduced earnings per share for 2013 by $0.01 per share (2012: $0.02 per share).

Total intrinsic value relating to options exercised in 2013 was $nil million (2012: $8 million).

1 | Different assumptions were used for the multiple stock option grants during the year.

2 | The volatility and risk-free interest rate assumptions varied over the expected term of these stock option grants.

The expected volatility assumptions have been developed taking into consideration both historical and implied volatility of our US dollar share price. Forfeitures have also been factored in based on historical forfeiture rates. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the US Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

The expected term assumption is derived from the option valuation model and is in part based on historical data regarding the exercise behavior of option holders based on multiple share-price paths. The Lattice model also takes into consideration employee turnover and voluntary exercise patterns of option holders.

As at December 31, 2013, there was $8 million (2012: $11 million) of total unrecognized compensation cost relating to unvested stock options. We expect to recognize this cost over a weighted average period of 1 year (2012: 2 years).

B Restricted Share Units (RSUs) and Deferred Share Units (DSUs)

Under our RSU plan, selected employees are granted RSUs where each RSU has a value equal to one Barrick common share. RSUs vest at the end of a two-and-a-half-year period and are settled in cash on the two-and-a-half-year anniversary of the grant date. Additional RSUs are credited to reflect dividends paid on Barrick common shares over the vesting period.

Compensation expense for RSUs incorporates an expected forfeiture rate. The expected forfeiture rate is estimated based on historical forfeiture rates and expectations of future forfeiture rates. We make adjustments if the actual forfeiture rate differs from the expected rate. At December 31, 2013, the weighted average remaining contractual life of RSUs was 1.17 years (2012: 1.09 years).

Compensation expense for RSUs was a $1 million reversal in 2013 (2012: $29 million) and is presented as a component of corporate administration and operating segment administration, consistent with the classification of other elements of compensation expense for those employees who had RSUs.

Under our DSU plan, Directors must receive a specified portion of their basic annual retainer in the form of DSUs, with the option to elect to receive 100% of such retainer in DSUs. Each DSU has the same value as one Barrick common share. DSUs must be retained until the Director leaves the Board, at which time the cash value of the DSUs

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 146 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

will be paid out. Additional DSUs are credited to reflect dividends paid on Barrick common shares. DSUs are recorded at fair value on the grant date and are adjusted for changes in fair value. The fair value of amounts granted each period together with changes in fair value are expensed.

C Performance Restricted Share Units (PRSUs)

In 2008, Barrick launched a PRSU plan. Under this plan, selected employees are granted PRSUs, where each PRSU has a value equal to one Barrick common share. At December 31, 2013, 598 thousand units were outstanding (2012: 185 thousand units).

D Employee Share Purchase Plan (ESPP)

In 2008, Barrick launched an Employee Share Purchase Plan. This plan enables Barrick employees to purchase Company shares through payroll deduction. During 2013, Barrick contributed and expensed $0.8 million to this plan (2012: $0.8 million).

E ABG Stock Options

African Barrick Gold has a stock option plan for its directors and selected employees. The exercise price of the granted options is determined by the ABG Remuneration Committee before the grant of an option provided that this price cannot be less than the average of the middle-market quotation of ABG’s shares (as derived from the London Stock Exchange Daily Official List) for the three dealing days immediately preceding the date of grant. All options outstanding at the end of the year expire in 2017 and 2020. There were 0.7 million ABG options granted which were exercisable at December 31, 2013. Stock option expense of $0.5 million (2012: $1.5 million) is included as a component of operating segment administration.

A Defined Benefit Pension Plans

We have qualified defined benefit pension plans that cover certain of our United States and Canadian employees and

provide benefits based on an employee’s years of service. The plans operate under similar regulatory framework and generally face similar risks. The majority of benefit payments are from trustee-administered funds; however, there are also a number of unfunded plans where the Company meets the benefit payment obligation as it falls due. Plan assets held in trust are governed by local regulations and practice in each country. Responsibility for governance of the plans – overseeing all aspects of the plans including investment decisions and contribution schedules – lies with the Company. We have set up pension committees to assist in the management of the plans and have also appointed experienced independent professional experts such as actuaries, custodians and trustees. In 2012, certain vested participants elected a lump sum to settle their obligations, resulting in a settlement gain of $7 million.

B Other Post-Retirement Benefits

1 | Holdings in equity and fixed income securities consist of Level 1 and Level 2 assets within the fair value hierarchy

Through the defined benefit pension plans and other post-retirement benefit plans, we are exposed to a number of risks, most significant of which are detailed below:

Asset Volatility

The plan liabilities are calculated using discount rate that was developed by matching the cash flows underlying the pension obligation with a spot rate curve based on the actual returns available on high-quality (Moody’s Aa) US corporate bonds. If plan assets underperform this yield, this will create a deficit. Our plans hold a significant proportion of equities, which contribute certain degree of risk and volatility.

As the plans mature, we intend to reduce the level of investment risk by investing more in assets that better match the liabilities. However, we believe that due to the long-term nature of the plan liabilities, a level of continuing equity investment is an appropriate component of our long-term strategy to manage the plans efficiently.

Changes in bond yields

A decrease in corporate bond yields will increase plan liabilities, although this be would likely be partially offset by an increase in the value of the plan’s bond holdings.

Inflation risk

Most of the plan’s obligations are linked to inflation and higher inflation will lead to higher liabilities (although, in most cases, caps on the level of inflationary increases are in place to protect the plan against extreme inflation). The majority of the plan’s assets are either unaffected by (fixed interest bonds) or loosely correlated with (equities)

inflation, meaning that an increase in inflation will also increase the deficit.

Life expectancy

The majority of the plans’ obligations are to provide benefit for the life of the member, so increases in the life expectancy will result in an increase in the plan’s liabilities.

Each sensitivity analysis disclosed in this note is based on changing one assumption while holding all other assumptions constant. In practice, this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. When calculating the sensitivity of the defined benefit obligation to variations in significant actuarial assumptions, the same method (present value of the defined benefit obligation calculated with the project unit credit method at the end of the reporting period) has been applied as for calculating the liability recognized in the balance sheet.

In case of the funded plans, the Company ensures that the investment positions are managed within an asset-liability matching (ALM) framework that has been developed to achieve long-term investments that are in line with the obligations under the pension plans. Within this framework, the Company’s ALM objective is to match assets to the pension obligations by investing in long-term fixed interest securities with maturities that match the benefit payments as they fall due and in the appropriate currency. The Company actively monitors how the duration and the expected yield of the investments are matching the expected cash outflows arising from the pension obligations. The Company has not changed the processes used to manage its risks from previous periods. The Company does not currently use

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 150 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

derivatives to manage its risk. Investments are well diversified, such that the failure of any single investment would not have a material impact on the overall level of assets. All of the assets in 2013 consist of equities and fixed income securities. The Company believes that equities offer the best returns over the long-term with an acceptable level of risk. The majority of equities are in a globally diversified portfolio of international blue chip entities. The plans are not exposed to significant foreign currency risk.

The Company has fully funded pension plans (mostly in US) at December 31, 2013. The expected contribution to post-employment benefit plans for the year ending December 31, 2013 is $8 million (2012: $10 million).

The weighted average duration of the defined benefit obligation is 10 years (2012: 11 years).

D Defined Contribution Pension Plans

Certain employees take part in defined contribution employee benefit plans and we also have a retirement plan for certain officers of the Company. Our share of contributions to these plans, which is expensed in the year it is earned by the employee, was $64 million in 2013 (2012: $66 million).

35 > CONTINGENCIES

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued that may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The impact of any resulting loss from the matters noted below may be material.

A) Litigation and Claims

In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against us or unasserted claims that may

result in such proceedings, the Company with assistance from its legal counsel evaluate the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.

Shareholder Class Action

On December 6, 2013, lead counsel and plaintiffs in the securities class action filed a consolidated amended complaint (the “Complaint”) in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Court”), on behalf of anyone who purchased the common stock of the Company between May 7, 2009, and November 1, 2013. The Complaint asserts claims against the Company and individual defendants Jamie Sokalsky, Aaron Regent, Ammar Al-Joundi, Igor Gonzales, Peter Kinver, George Potter and Sybil Veenman (collectively, the “Defendants”). The Complaint alleges that the Defendants made false and misleading statements to the investing public relating (among other things) to the cost of the Pascua-Lama project (the “Project”), the amount of time it would take before production commenced at the Project, and the environmental risks of the Project, as well as alleged internal control failures. The Complaint seeks an unspecified amount of damages.

The Complaint largely tracks the legal theories advanced in three prior complaints filed on June 5, 2013, June 14, 2013 and August 2, 2013. The Court consolidated those complaints and appointed lead counsel and lead plaintiffs for the resulting consolidated action in September 2013.

The Defendants’ motion to dismiss will be filed on February 11, 2014, the opposition to the Defendants’ motion is due on March 14, 2014, and Defendants’ reply brief is due on April 11, 2014. The Company intends to vigorously defend this matter. No amounts have been recorded for any potential liability arising from this matter, as the Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome.

Pascua-Lama – Constitutional Protection Action

On July 15, 2013, the Court of Appeals of Copiapo, Chile issued a decision on the constitutional protection action filed in September 2012, ruling that Compania Minera Nevada (“CMN”), Barrick’s Chilean subsidiary that holds the Chilean portion of the Pascua-Lama project, must complete the Project’s water management system in compliance with the environmental permit to the satisfaction of Chile’s environmental regulator (the Superintendencia del Medio Ambiente or “SMA”) before resuming construction activities in Chile. This ruling was confirmed by the Chilean Supreme Court on September 25, 2013.

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 151 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In September 2013, a new constitutional protection action was filed against CMN alleging that the company is conducting activities at the Project that are not authorized by the July 15, 2013 decision of the Court of Appeals of Copiapo or the May 2013 Resolution of the SMA (for more information on the SMA Resolution see “Pascua-Lama – Challenge to SMA Regulatory Sanction” below). The Court of Appeals of Antofagasta admitted the case for review but declined to issue the preliminary injunction requested by the plaintiff. The challenged activities include the Project’s environmental monitoring as well as the operation and maintenance of facilities in connection with the completion of the Project’s water management system. The plaintiff, a lawyer acting on her own behalf, alleges that these activities infringe her constitutional right to life and to live in an environment free of contamination. The relief sought in the action is the complete suspension of these activities and the adoption by the SMA of administrative measures to, among other things, inspect the works and commence sanction proceedings against CMN as appropriate. On October 22, 2013, the SMA informed the Court that CMN is authorized to perform all of the activities challenged by the plaintiff. The Company intends to vigorously defend this matter. No amounts have been recorded for any potential liability or asset impairment arising from this matter, as the Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome, but believes that the challenged activities are authorized.

Pascua-Lama – Challenge to SMA Regulatory Sanction

In May 2013, CMN received a Resolution (the “Resolution”) from the SMA that requires the company to complete the water management system for the Project in accordance with the Project’s environmental permit before resuming construction activities in Chile. The Resolution also required CMN to pay an administrative fine of approximately $16 million for deviations from certain requirements of the Project’s Chilean environmental approval, including a series of reporting requirements and instances of non-compliance related to the Project’s water management system. CMN paid the administrative fine in May 2013. In June 2013, a group of local farmers and indigenous communities challenged the Resolution. The challenge, which was brought in the Environmental Court of Santiago, Chile (the “Environmental Court”), claims that the fine was inadequate and requests more severe sanctions against CMN including the revocation of the Project’s environmental permit. The SMA presented its defense of the Resolution in July 2013. On August 2, 2013, CMN joined as a party to this proceeding and has vigorously defended the Resolution. The hearing was held before the Environmental Court on September 4, 2013. A court-ordered inspection of the Pascua-Lama Project site took place on December 5, 2013. CMN presented additional

environmental information to the Environmental Court on January 15, 2014, and the decision of the Court is pending. No amounts have been recorded for any potential liability or asset impairment arising from this matter, as the Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome or, in particular, the potential financial impact in the event that more severe sanctions are imposed.

Pascua-Lama – Environmental Damage Claim

In June 2013, a group of local farmers filed an environmental damage claim against CMN in the Environmental Court, alleging that CMN has damaged glaciers located in the Project area. The plaintiffs are seeking a court order requiring CMN to remedy the alleged damage and implement measures to prevent such environmental impact from continuing, including by halting construction of the Project in Chile. CMN presented its defense on October 9, 2013. A settlement and evidentiary hearing took place on January 8, 2014. Having failed to reach a settlement during that hearing, the parties proceeded to present documentary evidence and witness testimony to the Environmental Court. The hearing will resume in late February 2014. The Company intends to vigorously defend this matter. No amounts have been recorded for any potential liability or asset impairment arising from this matter, as the Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome.

Argentine Glacier Legislation and Constitutional Litigation

On September 30, 2010, the National Law on Minimum Requirements for the Protection of Glaciers was enacted in Argentina, and came into force in early November 2010. The federal law bans new mining exploration and exploitation activities on glaciers and in the “peri-glacial” environment, and subjects ongoing mining activities to an environmental audit. If such audit identifies significant impacts on glaciers and peri-glacial environment, the relevant authority is empowered to take action, which according to the legislation could include the suspension or relocation of the activity. In the case of the Veladero mine and the Pascua-Lama project, the competent authority is the Province of San Juan. In late January 2013, the Province announced that it had completed the required environmental audit, which concluded that Veladero and Pascua-Lama do not impact glaciers or peri-glaciers. The constitutionality of the federal glacier law is the subject of a challenge before the National Supreme Court of Argentina, which has not yet ruled on the issue. No amounts have been recorded for any potential liability or asset impairment under this matter, as the Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome and in any event the provincial audit concluded that the Company’s activities do not impact glaciers or peri-glaciers.

Marinduque Complaint

Placer Dome Inc. was named the sole defendant in a Complaint filed in October 2005 by the Provincial Government of Marinduque, an island province of the Philippines (“Province”), with the District Court in Clark County, Nevada (the “Court”). The complaint asserted that Placer Dome Inc. was responsible for alleged environmental degradation with consequent economic damages and impacts to the environment in the vicinity of the Marcopper mine that was owned and operated by Marcopper Mining Corporation (“Marcopper”). Placer Dome Inc. indirectly owned a minority shareholding of 39.9% in Marcopper until the divestiture of its shareholding in 1997. The Province sought “to recover damages for injuries to the natural, ecological and wildlife resources within its territory”. In addition, the Province sought compensation for the costs of restoring the environment, an order directing Placer Dome Inc. to undertake and complete “the remediation, environmental cleanup, and balancing of the ecology of the affected areas,” and payment of the costs of environmental monitoring. The Complaint addressed the discharge of mine tailings into Calancan Bay, the 1993 Maguila-guila dam breach, the 1996 Boac river tailings spill, and alleged past and continuing damage from acid rock drainage. In October 2010, the Court issued an order granting the Company’s motion to dismiss the action on the grounds of forum non conveniens. The Province has appealed the Court’s dismissal order to the Nevada Supreme Court. The Company intends to continue to defend the action vigorously. No amounts have been recorded for any potential liability under this complaint, as the Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome.

Perilla Complaint

In 2009, Barrick Gold Inc. and Placer Dome Inc. were purportedly served in Ontario with a complaint filed in November 2008 in the Regional Trial Court of Boac (the “Court”), on the Philippine island of Marinduque, on behalf of two named individuals and purportedly on behalf of the approximately 200,000 residents of Marinduque. The complaint alleges injury to the economy and the ecology of Marinduque as a result of the discharge of mine tailings from the Marcopper mine into Calancan Bay, the Boac River, and the Mogpog River. The plaintiffs are claiming for abatement of a public nuisance allegedly caused by the tailings discharge and for nominal damages for an alleged violation of their constitutional right to a balanced and healthful ecology. In June 2010, Barrick Gold Inc. and Placer Dome Inc. filed a motion to have the Court resolve their unresolved motions to dismiss before considering the plaintiffs’ motion to admit an amended complaint and also filed an opposition to the plaintiffs’ motion to admit on the same basis. It is not known when these motions or the outstanding motions to dismiss

will be decided by the Court. The Company intends to defend the action vigorously. No amounts have been recorded for any potential liability under this complaint, as the Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome.

Writ of Kalikasan

In February 2011, a Petition for the Issuance of a Writ of Kalikasan with Prayer for Temporary Environmental Protection Order was filed in the Supreme Court of the Republic of the Philippines (the “Supreme Court”) in Eliza M. Hernandez, Mamerto M. Lanete and Godofredo L. Manoy versus Placer Dome Inc. and Barrick Gold Corporation (the “Petition”). In March 2011, the Supreme Court issued an En Banc Resolution and Writ of Kalikasan, directed service of summons on Placer Dome Inc. and the Company, ordered Placer Dome Inc. and the Company to make a verified return of the Writ with ten (10) days of service and referred the case to the Court of Appeal for hearing. The Petition alleges that Placer Dome Inc. violated the petitioners’ constitutional right to a balanced and healthful ecology as a result of, among other things, the discharge of tailings into Calancan Bay, the 1993 Maguila-Guila dam break, the 1996 Boac river tailings spill and failure of Marcopper to properly decommission the Marcopper mine. The petitioners have pleaded that the Company is liable for the alleged actions and omissions of Placer Dome Inc., which was a minority indirect shareholder of Marcopper at all relevant times, and is seeking orders requiring the Company to environmentally remediate the areas in and around the mine site that are alleged to have sustained environmental impacts. The petitioners purported to serve the Company in March 2011, following which the Company filed an Urgent Motion For Ruling on Jurisdiction with the Supreme Court challenging the constitutionality of the Rules of Procedure in Environmental Cases (the “Environmental Rules”) pursuant to which the Petition was filed, as well as the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court over the Company. In November 2011, two local governments, or “baranguays” (Baranguay San Antonio and Baranguay Lobo) filed a motion with the Supreme Court seeking intervenor status with the intention of seeking a dismissal of the proceedings. No decision has as yet been issued with respect to the Urgent Motion for Ruling on Jurisdiction, the motion for intervention, or certain other matters before the Supreme Court. The Company intends to continue to defend the action vigorously. No amounts have been recorded for any potential liability under this matter, as the Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome.

Cortez Hills Complaint

In November 2008, the United States Bureau of Land Management (the “BLM”) issued a Record of Decision

BARRICK YEAR END 2013 |  | 153 |  | NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

approving the Cortez Hills Expansion Project, following which the TeMoak Shoshone Tribe, the East Fork Band Council of the TeMoak Shoshone Tribe and the Timbisha Shoshone Tribe, the Western Shoshone Defense Project, and Great Basin Resource Watch filed a lawsuit against the United States seeking to enjoin the majority of the activities comprising the Project on various grounds.

In December 2009, on appeal from a decision denying certain of the plaintiffs’ claims, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit (the “Court of Appeals”) issued an opinion in which it held that the plaintiffs were likely to succeed on two of their claims and ordered that a supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (“EIS”) be prepared by Barrick. In March 2011, the BLM issued its record of decision that approved the supplemental EIS. In January 2012, the District Court issued a decision granting summary judgment in favor of Barrick and the BLM on all remaining issues. The plaintiffs have appealed this decision to the Court of Appeals, which held oral arguments in September 2013. A decision of the Court of Appeals is pending. No amounts have been recorded for any potential liability or asset impairment arising from this matter, as the Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome.

B) Other Contingencies

Jabal Sayid

Since the Company acquired its interest in the Jabal Sayid project through its acquisition of Equinox Minerals in 2011, the Deputy Ministry for Mineral Resources (“DMMR”), which oversees the mining license, has questioned whether such change in the indirect ownership of the project, as well as previous changes in ownership, required the prior consent of the DMMR. In December 2012, the DMMR required the project to cease commissioning of the plant using stockpiled ore, citing alleged noncompliances with the mining investment law and the mining license, and in January 2013 required related companies to cease exploration activities, citing noncompliance with the law and the exploration licenses related to the ownership changes. The Company does not believe that such consent was required as a matter of law, but has responded to requests of the DMMR, including through the provision of additional guarantees and undertakings, and expressed its desire to fully satisfy any related requirements of the DMMR. Other regulatory agencies may decline to issue or renew licenses as a result of the position being taken by the DMMR. The Company is progressing discussions with the DMMR and is also evaluating alternatives such as further curtailing or suspending activities on site until a resolution is achieved, which could lead to further impairment losses on the value of the asset.

Veladero

Production at the Company’s Veladero mine in Argentina has been impacted by a build-up of ounces on the leach pad due to restrictions that affect the amount of solution that can be applied to the mine’s heap leaching process. The Company is in discussions with regulatory authorities with respect to permit amendments to reflect the current circumstances and to allow operation of the leach pad in alignment with permit requirements. The Company expects to receive the requested permit amendments pursuant to these discussions. However, failure to obtain the permit amendments in a timely manner would have an increasing impact on the Company’s 2014 production at Veladero and potentially on the relationship with the San Juan provincial mining authority (the Instituto Provincial de Exploraciones y Explotaciones Mineras or “IPEEM”) under the exploitation agreement governing the Company’s right to operate the Veladero mine.

Mineral Reserves and Resources Notes

1. Mineral reserves (“reserves”) and mineral resources (“resources”) have been calculated as at December 31, 2013 in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 as required by Canadian securities regulatory authorities. For United States reporting purposes, Industry Guide 7, (under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934), as interpreted by Staff of the SEC, applies different standards in order to classify mineralization as a reserve. In addition, while the terms “measured”, “indicated” and “inferred” mineral resources are required pursuant to National Instrument 43-101, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize such terms. Canadian standards differ significantly from the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and mineral resource information contained herein is not comparable to similar information regarding mineral reserves disclosed in accordance with the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. U.S. investors should understand that “inferred” mineral resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. In addition, U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of Barrick’s mineral resources constitute or will be converted into reserves. Calculations have been prepared by employees of Barrick, its joint venture partners or its joint venture operating companies, as applicable, under the supervision of Rick Sims, Senior Director, Resources and Reserves, of Barrick, Steven Haggarty, Senior Director, Metallurgy, of Barrick and Patrick Garretson, Director, LOM Planning, of Barrick. Except as noted below, reserves have been calculated using an assumed long-term average gold price of $US 1,100 per ounce, a silver price of $US 21.00 per ounce, a copper price of $US 3.00 per pound and exchange rates of 1.05 $Can/$US and 0.90 $US/$Aus. Reserves at Round Mountain have been calculated using an assumed long-term average gold price of $US 1,200. Reserves at Marigold, Kalgoorlie, Bulyanhulu, North Mara and Buzwagi have been calculated using an assumed long-term average gold price of $US 1,300. Reserve calculations incorporate current and/or expected mine plans and cost levels at each property. Varying cut-off grades have been used depending on the mine and type of ore contained in the reserves. Barrick’s normal data verification procedures have been employed in connection with the calculations. Resources as at December 31, 2013 have been estimated using varying cut-off grades, depending on both the type of mine or project, its maturity and ore types at each property. For a breakdown of reserves and resources by category and for a more detailed description of the key assumptions, parameters and methods used in calculating Barrick’s reserves and resources, see Barrick’s most recent Annual Information Form/Form 40-F on file with Canadian provincial securities regulatory authorities and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

2. The Company placed the Pierina mine into closure in 2013. Consequently, the Company removed the estimate of reserves and resources associated with the Pierina mine from its statement of reserves and resources for 2013.

3. On September 30, 2013, the Company divested the Darlot, Granny Smith and Lawlers mines. For additional information regarding this matter, see page 19 of Barrick’s Year-End Report 2013.

4. African Barrick Gold decided to close the Tulawaka mine in 2013. Consequently, the Company removed the estimate of reserves and resources associated with the Tulawaka mine from its statement of reserves and resources for 2013.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

Certain information contained or incorporated by reference in this Fourth Quarter and Year-End Report 2013, 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”, “intend”, “continue”, “budget”, “estimate”, “may”, “will”, “schedule” 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 the company, 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 and 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 and other jurisdictions in which the company does 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 rating; the impact of inflation; fluctuations in the currency markets; 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; risks arising from holding derivative instruments; litigation; business opportunities that may be presented to, or pursued by, the company; 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 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 Fourth Quarter and Year-End Report 2013 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 discussion of some of the factors underlying forward-looking statements.

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.
