July 18, 2024 (MLN): In a latest development for Barrick Gold Corporation's Reko Diq project in Pakistan, the company has launched a recruitment drive just a week after the deployment of ExoSphere.

"Barrick Gold Corporation is recruiting a high-caliber team of individuals for the development of its outstanding, world-class mining project—the Reko Diq copper-gold mine in Balochistan," reads a recent job listing in a newspaper.

This marks the realization of long-awaited advancements in one of the largest undeveloped copper-gold projects in the world.

Reko Diq is one of several volcanic centers in the Chagai mountain range and part of the Tethyan Magmatic Arc which is known to contain significant copper-gold ore deposits of various grades.

With plans to begin production in 2028, Reko Diq is poised to be a major contributor to Pakistan's economy, delivering employment opportunities, investment in development programs, and regional economic growth in the Balochistan province in line with Barrick Gold's sustainability pillars.
