Barrick emphasized that the Twiga partnership not only revitalized Tanzania's gold mining industry but also positioned the country as a prime investment destination with abundant metal and mineral resources. The mines, operating at a Tier One level, have been pivotal in contributing to the Tanzanian government's revenues, surpassing other sectors through taxes, job creation, support to local suppliers, community initiatives and shareholder distributions. Since Barrick's takeover in 2019, the mines' contribution to the Tanzanian economy exceeded $3.4 billion.
