VANCOUVER - Much of the rhetoric in Barrick Gold's (TSX: ABX; NYSE: ABX) recent marketing drive has involved getting back to its roots and rediscovering the "lean and nimble" business model that led to the company's initial success. A big part of that is driving down debt and achieving a strong balance sheet, but recent results reveal that Barrick still has a long way to go. On Feb. 18 the company tabled its full-year results for 2014, wherein management focused on a 15% drop in all-in sustaining costs and annual gold production of 6.25 million oz. gold. All-in sustaining costs for the year came in at US$864 per oz.
