On May 14, 2025, Barrick Gold Corporation (B) experienced a significant trading volume of $370 million, marking a 37.04% increase from the previous day.

In Mali, a judge is anticipated to issue an order for the reopening of Barrick Mining's Loulo-Gounkoto complex under new management. This decision comes at the request of the Malian government, aiming to resolve a long-standing dispute between the country and the mining corporation. The reopening of the mine under new management would signify a major escalation in the ongoing conflict, potentially impacting Barrick's operations and financial performance in the region.
