Chrysos announces that it has forged a partnership with Barrick Gold, and laboratory business MSALABS, to deliver PhotonAssay™ technology to Barrick mine sites across four continents.

Chrysos Managing Director and CEO Dirk Treasure commented, “Barrick’s global adoption of our technology is a watershed moment for us, underlining PhotonAssay’s superiority to outdated and hazardous fire assay methods. Together with the team at MSALABS, we look forward to bringing the same operational and environmental benefits being delivered at Bulyanhulu and Kibali in Africa to more of Barrick’s gold mines.”

Striking a similar tone, Barrick Mineral Resource Management & Evaluations Executive Simon Bottoms, said “PhotonAssay has already been delivering faster, safer, more accurate and environmentally-friendly analysis to our African operations, so we are more than pleased to broaden the partnership with Chrysos and MSALABS to take advantage of this innovative technology in our global operations.”
