Barrick Gold president Kelvin Dushnisky said: "As a result of the non-core asset sales we have executed this year, our portfolio is now much more focused on core mines that generate free cash-flow through the metal price cycle.
"We are also on track to meet our stated debt reduction target of $3bn for 2015, which, when completed, will represent a 23% reduction in total debt since the start of the year."
Barrick also signed agreement to sell its 50% interest in the Round Mountain mine and 100% of the Bald Mountain mine to Kinross Gold for $610m.
Barrick Gold expects to complete the sale of these properties by mid-January 2016.
