IRVING, Texas--( BUSINESS WIRE)-- Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR) announced today that it has received final notice to proceed from Barrick Mining Corporation on its Reko Diq Project in Balochistan, Pakistan.

The mine will create jobs, stimulate regional economic growth and support long-term investment in development programs.” “Fluor’s selection as our EPCM partner strengthens our ability to execute the Reko Diq project with the technical rigor, operational discipline and socio-environmental responsibility that are hallmarks of both companies,” said Mark Bristow, President and CEO of Barrick. “We look forward to working closely with Fluor to ensure that Reko Diq delivers lasting value to the equity partners, both local and international, as well as the many in-country stakeholders, including the people of Balochistan and Pakistan.” Reko Diq is a generational project that is expected to have a life that will extend well beyond 40 years as a truck-and-shovel open pit operation with processing facilities producing a high-quality copper-gold concentrate.
