Mr Peter Munk reports
Barrick Gold has appointed Paul D. Melnuk as president and
chief executive officer, effective immediately.
Since 1992, Mr Melnuk has been president and chief
executive officer of Clark USA, Inc, a Fortune 500 company
with annual revenues of US$4 billion. He led a turnaround of
Clark that resulted in substantial growth and record
operational results in 1997.
Mr Melnuk, 43, has held senior executive positions over a
decade of association with Peter Munk, including serving as
president and chief operating officer of The Horsham Corp
(1992-1994), member of the Horsham board of directors
(1992-1996), and vice-president and chief financial officer
(1988-1992).
John K. Carrington is chief operating officer, with overall
responsibility for mining operations, exploration and
development projects.
Barrick has benefited from its plan to accelerate production
growth at its high quality mines, which should reduce
operating costs to US$150 an ounce by 1999, and make the
company the world's lowest cost and most profitable gold
producer.
