Barrick Gold Corp. has declared a dividend of 10 cents per share for the third quarter of 2023. The dividend is consistent with the company's performance dividend policy announced at the start of 2022. All amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars.

The Q3 2023 dividend will be paid on Dec. 15, 2023, to shareholders of record at the close of business on Nov. 30, 2023.

"The continuing strength of our business and our balance sheet allows us to maintain the distribution of a robust dividend to our shareholders, whilst still ensuring adequate liquidity to invest in our significant growth projects," said senior executive vice-president and chief financial officer Graham Shuttleworth.
