"It has been a tremendous honour to lead Goldcorp over the last seven years as it has matured into one of the world's leading gold mining companies," said Mr. Jeannes.  "I have had the privilege of working with an exceptional group of leaders as we built the foundations for long-lasting success at Goldcorp, including two key new mines that will drive strong, low-cost production for many years.  I have tremendous respect for David and look forward to working with him, the Board and the management team over the next few months to ensure a smooth transition."

We wish him the best in retirement and continued success in the next chapter of his distinguished career.  The Board also congratulates David on his appointment, and looks forward to working with him in the future."

Mr. Garofalo has worked in various capacities in the natural resources sector over the last 25 years.  He served most recently as President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of HudBay Minerals Inc. since 2010 where he presided over that company's emergence as a leading metals producer.  Before joining Hudbay, David served as Senior Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer with Agnico-Eagle Mines Limited from 1998 to 2010.
