TORONTO, Aug 17 (Reuters) - Barrick Gold ABX.TO said on
Monday Jim Gowans, a veteran mining hand and one of its
co-presidents, was retiring from the company.
Toronto-based Barrick said Gowans would step down as
co-president immediately, but will stay on as an advisor to the
chairman until he retires at the end of the year.
Kelvin Dushnisky, who has served as co-president with Gowans
for a year, has been appointed president and will continue to
report to Executive Chair John Thornton.
Barrick eliminated the chief executive role and solidified
Thornton's role within the company last year, after former CEO
Jamie Sokalsky left the company.
Richard Williams, previously the company's Chief of Staff,
has been named chief operating officer, while Basie Maree, most
recently head of technical services, has been appointed chief
technical officer. The appointments are effective immediately.
