All information included in this presentation, including any information as to Terangaâs future financial or operating performance and other statements that express managementâs
expectations or estimates of future performance, other than statements of historical fact, constitute forward-looking information or forward-looking statements within the meaning of
applicable securities laws and are based on expectations, estimates and projections as of the date hereof. Forward-looking statements are included for the purpose of providing
information about managementâs current expectations and plans relating to the future. Wherever possible, words such as âplansâ, âexpectsâ, âscheduledâ, âtrendsâ, âindicationsâ,
âpotentialâ, âestimatesâ, âpredictsâ, âanticipateâ, âto establishâ, âbelieveâ, âintendâ, âability toâ, or statements that certain actions, events or results âmayâ, âcouldâ, âwouldâ, âmightâ,
âwillâ, or are "likely" to be taken, occur or be achieved, or the negative of these words or other variations thereof, have been used to identify such forward-looking information.
Specific forward-looking statements include, without limitation, all disclosure regarding future results of operations, economic conditions and anticipated courses of action.
Although the forward-looking statements contained herein reflect management's current beliefs and reasonable assumptions based upon information available to management as
of the date hereof, Teranga cannot be certain that actual results will be consistent with such forward-looking information. Such assumptions include, among others, 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. For a more comprehensive discussion of the risks faced by Teranga, and which may
cause the actual financial results, performance or achievements of Teranga to be materially different from estimated future results, performance or achievements expressed or
implied by forward-looking information or forward-looking statements, please refer to Terangaâs latest Annual Information Form filed with Canadian securities regulatory authorities
at www.sedar.com or on Terangaâs website at www.terangagold.com. The risks described in the Annual Information Form (filed and viewable on www.sedar.com and on
Terangaâs website at www.terangagold.com) are hereby incorporated by reference herein. Teranga disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking
statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Nothing herein should be construed as either an offer to sell
or a solicitation to buy or sell Teranga securities.
All references to Teranga include its subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise. This presentation contains references to Teranga using the words âweâ, âusâ, âourâ and
similar words and the reader is referred to using the words âyouâ, âyourâ and similar words. All dollar amounts stated are denominated in U.S. dollars unless specified otherwise.

Five Prospects Within ~6-Kilometre Radius of Central Point
⢠In just one year, there have been three discoveries at
Golden Hill
⢠To date Golden Hill has produced a series of high-grade,
near-surface drill results at the first five prospects:
â Ma
â Jackhammer Hill
â Peksou
â C-Zone
â Nahiri
⢠The close proximity of these targets
and prospects lends itself to a central

Notes to 2018 Guidance
A. 22,500 ounces of gold production are to be sold to Franco-Nevada Corporation
at 20% of the spot gold price.
B. Total cash cost per ounce sold is a non-IFRS financial measure and does not
have a standard meaning under IFRS.
C. All-in sustaining costs per ounce is a non-IFRS financial measure and does not
have a standard meaning under IFRS. All-in sustaining costs per ounce sold
include total cash costs per ounce, administration expenses, share based
compensation and sustaining capital expenditures as defined by the World
Gold Council. All-in sustaining costs also include cash / (non-cash) inventory
movements and non-cash amortization of advanced royalties.
D. Exploration and evaluation costs includes both Expensed Exploration, primarily
attributable to exploration work on exploration permits, and Capitalized
Reserve Development, which is work performed on Mine Licenses.
E. Site development costs for 2018 include village relocation costs for the
Sabodala village.
F. Excludes capitalized deferred stripping costs, included in mine production
costs.
G. Construction readiness / early works expenditures for 2018 includes
anticipated expenditures for the construction of the Wahgnion Gold Project
prior to completion of a debt facility agreement.
Other
This forecast financial information is based on the following material assumptions
for 2018: gold price: $1,250 per ounce; light fuel oil price $0.87/L; heavy fuel oil
price $0.50/L; Euro:USD exchange rate of 1:1.17
Other important assumptions: any political events are not expected to impact
operations, including movement of people, supplies and gold shipments; grades
and recoveries will remain consistent with the life-of-mine plan to achieve the
forecast gold production; and no unplanned delays in or interruption of scheduled
production.

Non-IFRS Performance Measures
The Company has included non-IFRS measures in this document, including âtotal cash costsâ, âtotal cash costs per ounce soldâ, âall-in sustaining costsâ (âAISCâ), âAISC (excluding cash / (non-cash) inventory movements
and amortized advanced royalty costs)â, âAISC per ounceâ, âAISC (excluding cash / (non-cash) inventory movements and amortized advanced royalty costs) per ounceâ, âaverage realized gold priceâ, âearnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation and amortizationâ (âEBITDAâ), âfree cash flowâ, âadjusted net profit attributable to shareholdersâ and âadjusted basic earnings per shareâ. These measures are intended to provide additional
information only 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. The measures are
not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently.
âTotal cash costsâ 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. âTotal cash costs per ounce soldâ is a common financial performance measure in the gold mining industry but has
no standard meaning under IFRS. The Company reports total cash costs on a sales basis. The World Gold Council (âWGCâ) definition of AISC 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. AISC 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 Companyâs cash expenditures. In addition, the calculation of AISC 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 Companyâs overall profitability. The Company also expands upon the WGC definition of AISC by presenting an additional measure of âAISC (excluding cash /
(non-cash) inventory movements and amortized advanced royalty costs)â. This measure excludes cash and non-cash inventory movements and amortized advanced royalty costs which management does not believe to
be true cash costs and are not fully indicative of performance for the period. For Sabodala and Wahgnion, life of mine total cash costs and AISC figures used in this presentation are before cash/non-cash inventory
movements and exclude any allocation of corporate overheads. Consolidated total cash costs and all-in sustaining cost figures add corporate overhead costs.
âAverage realized priceâ excludes from revenues unrealized gains and losses on non-hedge derivative contracts. Management uses this measure to better understand the price realized in each reporting period for gold
and silver sales.
âEBITDAâ excludes income tax, finance costs (before accretion expense), interest income, depreciation and amortization, and non-cash impairment charges from net profits. 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.
âFree cash flowâ is calculated as net cash flow provided by operating activities less sustaining capital expenditures. The Company believes this to be a useful indicator of our ability generate cash for growth initiatives.
Starting in 2018, the Company adopted âadjusted net profit attributable to shareholdersâ and âadjusted basic earnings per shareâ as new non-IFRS financial measures. These non-IFRS financial measures are used by
management and investors to measure the underlying operating performance of the Company. Presenting these measures from period to period will help management and investors evaluate earnings trends more
readily in comparison with results from prior periods. The Company calculates âadjusted net profit attributable to shareholdersâ as net profit attributable to shareholders adjusted to exclude specific items that are
significant, but not reflective of the underlying operations of the Company, including: the impact of unrealized and realized foreign exchange gains and losses, gains and losses on derivative instruments, accretion
expense on long-term obligations, impairment provisions and reversals thereof, and other unusual or non-recurring items. âAdjusted basic earnings per shareâ is calculated using the weighted average number of shares
outstanding under the basic method of earnings per share as determined under IFRS.
For more information regarding these measures, please refer to the Companyâs managementâs discussion and analysis accessible on the Companyâs website at www.terangagold.com.

A number of economic and technical studies have been prepared on the Afema project prior to Terangaâs entry into the Afema JV with Sodim. The most recent study, which included a mineral
resource estimate for the Afema mine license, was issued by RockRidge Consulting Services Geologists for and on behalf of TGL and is dated as of June 27, 2016 (the âJune 2016 Historical
Estimateâ). The June 2016 Historical Estimate includes an Indicated oxide resource estimate of 110Koz (comprised of 2.7Mt at an average grade of 1.26 g/t Au) and Inferred oxide resources of
122Koz (comprised of 3.0Mt at an average grade of 1.26 g/t Au). In addition, it includes an Indicated transitional resource estimate of 59Koz (comprised of 1.3Mt at an average grade of 1.39 g/t Au)
and an Inferred transitional resource of 28Koz (comprised of 0.8Mt at an average grade of 1.11 g/t Au). Finally, the June 2016 Historical Estimate provides a sulphide resource estimate as follows:
865Koz Indicated ounces (comprised of 17.3Mt at an average grade of 1.55 g/t Au) and 806Koz inferred ounces (comprised of 17.8Mt at an average grade of 1.40 g/t Au). This historical estimate is
reported as using a cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t Au.
RockRidge further states that it reviewed the geological and grade continuity to supplement the review of data quality in order to confirm the CIM mineral resource classification categories used. As
well, the June 2016 Historical Estimate states the following with respect to the basis of the mineral resource estimate:
⢠mineralized volumes were received for oxide, transitional and sulphide modelled volumes;
⢠gold grades were determined using ordinary kriging and Inverse distance squared interpolation (depending on data density) into a 3-dimensional block model constrained by
mineralization wireframes;
⢠the block models comprised sub-celled block dimensions of 5m x 5m x 1m and 5m x 5m x 2m (depending on data sampling interval);
⢠mineralized wireframes were truncated to the topographic surface reflecting the mining that had previously occurred on the property;
⢠gold values were investigated for outlier values and put though two statistical capping/cutting routines;
⢠Datamine Studio 3 was the modelling package; and
⢠relationship between geology and preliminary mining and economic factors was taken into account at all times.
Teranga considers the June 2016 Historical Estimate to be a âhistorical estimateâ as defined under NI 43-101 and relevant as the most recent resource estimate on the Afema project. Further
drilling, resource modelling and updates to key economic assumptions would be required to upgrade or verify these historical estimates as current mineral resources and accordingly they should be
relied upon only as a historical resource estimate. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves and Teranga is
not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves.
