The following is the text of the recent Barrick press release re the PGS J/V - which has probably been posted already - however when Barrick refers to it's own Bulyanhulu property I can't locate it on the map - it's apparently 18 miles north of the PGD one - the only one near is marked 'Ashanti':

TORONTO, CANADA--(Canadian Corp News, October 20, 1999)--

-Drilling confirms potential to expand resource-

-Drill program increased to 20,000 meters-

Pangea Goldfields Inc today released the results from the initial 6,200
meters of a 10,000-meter diamond drill program undertaken by joint
venture partner, Barrick Gold Corporation at the Golden Ridge project
in Tanzania. The project, located 18 miles

southeast of Barrick's 8.8-million ounce Bulyanhulu project, currently
hosts a gold resource of 1.6 million ounces in the top 100 meters from
surface.Drill results to date, which include 13.46 grams/tonne gold
over 10.9 meters in hole GR99-45 and 1 0.11 grams/tonne gold over 12.4
meters in hole GR99-46, confirm the potential to expand the current
resource of 1.6 million ounces. The program was designed to add to
this gold resource by extending mineralization below 100 meters in the
Main Zone and

by assessing untested targets.Barrick has increased the size of the
program to approximately 20,000 meters and will continue drilling with
four rigs. This portion of the program is expected to be completed by
yearend. In addition, Barrick is also pl anning to drill several
targets in the Siga Hills area in the year 2000.

The 174 square kilometer property lies within the Kahama greenstone
belt and is underlain by folded and thrusted felsic volcanics,
pyroclastics and banded iron formations (BIFs). The BIFs host the
mineralization, with best drill results occuring when theBIF is in
contact with a quartz feldspar porphyry.

The Golden Ridge project is a 50/50 joint venture between Pangea
Goldfields and Barrick Gold with Barrick providing the funding and
acting as the operator. Barrick has the right to increase its interest
to 65% by completing a feasibility study and by arranging project
financing by September 2000.

Pangea drilling programs are also underway in Tanzania at the Tulawaka
project and at the recently acquired Imwero project in the Geita camp.
As well, drilling is scheduled to commence this month on the Kakindu
project located nothheast of Tulawaka. The attached table summarizes
the drilling completed to date in this program.
