Forward-Looking Statements

2

This presentation contains certain statements that constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws (“forward-looking statements”), which reflects management’s expectations regarding Teranga Gold Corporation’s (“Teranga” or the “Company”) future growth, results of operations (including, without limitation, future production and capital expenditures), performance (both operational and financial) and business prospects (including the timing and development of new deposits and the success of exploration activities) and opportunities. Wherever possible, words such as “plans”, “expects”, “does not expect”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “trends”, “indications”, “potential”, “estimates”, “predicts”, “forecasts”, “focused on”, “anticipate” or “does not anticipate”, “believe”, “intend”, “ability to”, “intended to”, “objective to” and similar expressions

  • r statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might”, “will”, or are “likely” to be taken, occur or be achieved, have been used to identify such forward

looking information. Specific forward-looking statements in this presentation include the commencement of expected drill programs, net present value, anticipated future cash flows, anticipated construction readiness activities for the Company’s Banfora gold project in Burkina Faso as well as the anticipated completion of construction of the Banfora project - including the first gold pour, the anticipated discovery of reserves at the Banfora project, and Teranga’s estimated full year financial and operating totals, as well as anticipated 2017 operating results. Although the forward-looking information contained in this presentation reflect management’s current beliefs based upon information currently available to management and based upon what management believes to be reasonable assumptions, Teranga cannot be certain that actual results will be consistent with such forward looking information. Such forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions, opinions and analysis made by management in light of its experience, current conditions and its expectations of future developments that management believe to be reasonable and relevant but that may prove to be incorrect. These assumptions include, among other things, the ability to obtain any requisite governmental approvals, the accuracy of mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates, gold price, exchange rates, fuel and energy costs, future economic conditions, anticipated future estimates of free cash flow, and courses of action. Teranga cautions you not to place undue reliance upon any such forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties that may affect forward-looking statements include, among others: the inherent risks involved in exploration and development of mineral properties, including government approvals and permitting, changes in economic conditions, changes in the worldwide price of gold and other key inputs, changes in mine plans and other factors, such as project execution delays, many of which are beyond the control of Teranga, as well as other risks and uncertainties which are more fully described in Teranga’s Annual Information Form dated March 29, 2017, and in other filings of Teranga with securities and regulatory authorities which are available at www.sedar.com. Teranga does not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements should assumptions related to these plans, estimates, projections, beliefs and opinions change. Nothing in this report should be construed as either an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy or sell Teranga securities. This presentation is as of November 27, 2017. All references to Teranga include its subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise. This presentation contains references to Teranga using the words “we”, “us”, “our” and similar words and the reader is referred to using the words “you”, “your” and similar words. All dollar amounts stated are denominated in U.S. dollars unless specified otherwise.

Golden Hill: High-Grade, Big Potential

Golden Hill (Houndé Belt – Burkina Faso) Situated in the Heart of Houndé Belt in Burkina Faso  One of the most prospective gold belts in the world today  Golden Hill is along trend with the Mana project to the north, next to Yaramoko and adjacent to the Houndé Project; to the south is a JV where +2 million ounces have already been discovered First Four Prospects Within 5 km Radius of Central Point

  • In just one year, Golden Hill has produced a series of high-

grade, near-surface drill results at the first four prospects: Ma, Nahiri, Peksou, and Jackhammer Hill

  • Core drilling results at Jackhammer Hill included 110 grams

per tonne of gold over 14 metres

  • The close proximity of these targets and prospects lends

itself to a central mill/multi-deposit operation similar to Sabodala and Banfora

Non-IFRS Performance Measures

The Company has included non-IFRS measures in this document, including “total cash cost per ounce of gold sold”, “all-in sustaining costs per ounce”, “free cash flow from operations” and “EBITDA”. The Company believes that these measures, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, provide investors an improved ability to evaluate the underlying performance of the Company. The non-IFRS measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. These measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS, and therefore may not be comparable to other issuers. Total cash costs figures are calculated in accordance with a standard developed by The Gold Institute, which was a worldwide association of suppliers of gold and gold products and included leading North American gold producers. The Gold Institute ceased operations in 2002, but the standard is considered the accepted standard of reporting cash cost of production in North America. Adoption of the standard is voluntary and the cost measures presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measure of other companies. The World Gold Council (“WGC”) definition of all-in sustaining costs seeks to extend the definition of total cash costs by adding corporate general and administrative costs, reclamation and remediation costs (including accretion and amortization), exploration and study costs (capital and expensed), capitalized stripping costs and sustaining capital expenditures and represents the total costs of producing gold from current operations. All-in sustaining cost excludes income tax payments, interest costs, costs related to business acquisitions and items needed to normalize earnings. Consequently, this measure is not representative of all of the Company’s cash expenditures. In addition, the calculation of all-in sustaining costs does not include depreciation expense as it does not reflect the impact of expenditures incurred in prior periods. Therefore, it is not indicative of the Company’s overall profitability. For Sabodala and Banfora, life of mine total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs figures used in this presentation are before cash/non-cash inventory movements and exclude any allocation of corporate

  • verheads. Total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs figures for Sabodala further excludes amortized advanced royalty costs. Other companies may calculate this measure differently. Consolidated total cash

costs and all-in sustaining cost figures add corporate overhead costs. Other companies may calculate this measure differently. The Company calculates free cash flow from operations as net cash flow provided by operating activities less sustaining capital expenditures. The Company believes this to be a useful indicator of its ability to generate cash for growth initiatives. “Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization” (“EBITDA”) is a non-IFRS financial measure, which excludes income tax, finance costs (before unwinding of discounts), interest income, depreciation and amortization, and non-cash impairment charges from net earnings. EBITDA is intended to provide additional information to investors and analysts and do not have any standardized definition under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Management believes that EBITDA is a valuable indicator of our ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flow to: fund working capital needs, service debt obligations, and fund capital expenditures. Net asset value (“NAV”) per share and net present value (“NPV”) per share are non-IFRS financial measures. NAV per share is equal to NPV per share and is calculated using the NPV of the life of mine (“LOM”) cash flows based on the Banfora and Sabodala 43-101 technical reports. The NPV calculation assumes a long-term gold price of $1,300 per ounce, a 5% discount rate, a 0.79 CAD/USD exchange rate, a 1.10 Euro/USD exchange rate, and current cash on hand. It includes interest, income taxes, and changes in working capital and excludes corporate administration, exploration expenditures, minority interest payments and debt repayments. The Banfora and Sabodala NPV are based on reserves only. For more information regarding these measures, please refer to the Company’s management’s discussion and analysis accessible on the Company’s website at www.terangagold.com.
