MARIGOLD
MINE IS FIRST GOLD MINE TO RECEIVE INTERNATIONAL CYANIDE
MANAGEMENT
CODE CERTIFICATION
Vancouver,
British Columbia - January 3, 2006 - GOLDCORP INC. (GG:NYSE; G:TSX)
announced
today that the Marigold mine in Nevada has become the first gold mining
operation in the world to be fully certified under the International Cyanide
Management Code for the Manufacture, Transport and Use of Cyanide in the
Production of Gold (“the Cyanide Code”). Marigold Mining Company operates the
mine, a joint venture between Goldcorp (66 2/3 percent owner and operator)
and
Barrick (33 1/3 percent owner). Marigold mine produced over 200,000 ounces
of
gold in 2005 within the Battle Mountain gold trend near Winnemucca, Nevada.
The
Cyanide Code is a voluntary industry program for companies involved in
the
production of gold using cyanide. It was developed under the auspices of
the
United Nations Environment Programme with the goal of safeguarding human
health
and the environment by promoting responsible management of cyanide used
in gold
mining.
“The
certification of Marigold is the latest validation of Goldcorp’s ongoing
commitment to operating all of its mines to the highest possible standards,”
said Kevin McArthur, Goldcorp Chief Executive Officer. “We are very proud of the
operating team that led Marigold to be the world’s first gold mine certified as
fully compliant with the Cyanide Code.”
Goldcorp
is one of the world’s lowest-cost and fastest growing multi-million ounce gold
producers with operations throughout the Americas.
