Barrick Gold Corp. says former vice-president Mark Hill is returning to the company as chief investment officer, a new position.
The Toronto-based company says Hill's technical experience will complement the economic and financial expertise of chief financial officer Catherine Raw.
During his previous time at Barrick, Hill was vice-president of evaluations and VP capital projects.
For the past four years, Hill has been at Waterton Global Resource Management, where he is currently a partner and head of mining.
He has previously held positions at BHP Billiton, AngloGold Ashanti, and Placer Dome, a Vancouver-based company that Barrick acquired in 2006.
