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
or 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 Wahgnion gold project in Burkina Faso as well as the anticipated completion of construction of the Wahgnion
project - including the first gold pour, the anticipated discovery of reserves at the Wahgnion project, and Teranga’s estimated full year financial and operating totals, as well as
anticipated 2017 and 2018 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.

16. Opportunities to Maintain Sabodala’s Annual Production of +200Koz Beyond 2022
Four Significant Opportunities for Continued Growth at Niakafiri
1. Restricted areas (sacred sites, cemetery, schools)
2. Extending the Niakafiri West trend northwards
3. Exploring a potential northwest trend under Sabodala village
4. Extending the Niakafiri Main zone at depth
Underground
• Current reserves of 346Koz within a resource (MII) base of 1.3Moz
• Extend drilling as we complete open pit mining for higher grade and
thicker zones for improved mining methods (long-hole vs cut & fill)
• Current operating scenario is for an owner mine fleet

Golden Hill: High-Grade, Big Potential
Five Prospects Within ~5 km 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:
– Ma
– Jackhammer Hill
– Peksou
– C-Zone
– Nahiri
• The close proximity of these targets and prospects lends
itself to a central mill/multi-deposit operation similar to
Sabodala and Wahgnion

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 Wahgnion, 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
overheads. 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 Wahgnion 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 Wahgnion and Sabodala NPV are based on reserves only.

12. Net Present Value (“NPV”) per share is a Non-IFRS financial measure. NPV per share, average NPV multiple of medium producers, and Teranga’s share price is as per BMO GoldPages published January 15,
2018. According to BMO GoldPages, NPV per share is calculated using the net present value of the life of mine cash flows based on the NI 43-101 plan, less cash flow of corporate costs, less net debt per share,
using the model at SPOT commodity prices and exchange rates. The “Revalued Share Price” is calculated using the NPV per share at SPOT times the NPV multiples as listed. The BMO NPV calculation assumes
a US$1,229 SPOT gold price per ounce, 5% discount, 0.79 USD/CAD exchange rate..

A number of economic and technical studies have been prepared on the Afema project prior to Teranga’s 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 “June 2016 Historical
Estimate”). 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 “historical estimate” 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.
