To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Nevada Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:

I am requesting all agreements and contracts with the state of Nevada and the mining company, Barrick Gold Corporations, from January 2020-2023

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 5 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

Victor Ledezma

From: Department Of Conservation And Natural Resources

I want to apologize for the delay in responding to this request. The employee responsible for handling this request has since left the State of Nevada. In the interim, I have taken over these duties, and after being made aware of your request, I am working with department staff to collect all responsive records.

Due to the scope of the request, I anticipate that department staff will need some time to fulfill it. I will respond as soon as possible with an update on when you can expect to receive the records.

Thank you, and please accept my apology for the delay.

Good afternoon,

I am responding in regards to a public record request made by Victor Ledezma:

I am requesting all agreements and contracts with the state of Nevada and the mining company, Barrick Gold Corporations, from January 2020-2023

I am working with staff to respond to the request. As I noted in the MuckRock system, staff turnover has led to a delay in our department responding to the request.

I wanted to ask what the request was in regards to? By having a bit more specificity about the request, it can help our staff find records that are directly responsive to the request. Also, is the requester interested in just Barrick Gold Corporations, or Nevada Gold Mines as well (the join venture between Barrick and Newmont)?

Thank you, and I look forward to hearing back soon.
