All statements, other than statements of historical fact, made and information contained in this presentation and responses to questions constitute “forward-looking
information” or “forward-looking statements” as those terms are defined under Canadian securities laws ( “forward-looking statements”). Forward-looking statements may
be identified by terminology such “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “is expected”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “pending”, “intends”, “plans”, “forecasts”, “targets”, or
“hopes”, or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “will”, “should” “might”, “will be taken”, or
“occur” and similar expressions).
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve assumptions, inherent risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict, and are usually beyond the control
of management, that could cause actual results to be materially different from those expressed by these forward-looking. Lundin Gold believes that the expectations
reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct. In
particular, this presentation contains forward-looking statements pertaining to: the Company’s project financing and sources of liquidity; the Company’s exploration plans
and activities; the value of the Company and the trading price of its shares; estimates of mineral resources and reserves; the rate of development of the project; production
plans and profiles; permitting and regulatory approvals; capital expenditures and requirements; the expectations of market prices and costs; the development, construction
and operation of FDN; anticipated future tax payments and rates, cash flows and their uses.
There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, as Lundin Gold's actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated as
a result of the factors discussed in the "Risk Factors" section in Lundin Gold's Annual Information Form for the financial year ended December 2016, which is available on
SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Forward-looking information should not be unduly relied upon.
The technical information contained in this presentation relating to the Fruta Del Norte Project is based on a Technical Report prepared for the Company entitled “Fruta del
Norte Project, Ecuador, NI 43-101 Technical Report on Feasibility Study” dated June 15, 2016 with an effective date of April 30, 2016 (the "2016 FDN TR"). Information of a
scientific and technical nature in this presentation was reviewed and approved by Ron Hochstein, P.Eng., Lundin Gold’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and Steve
Leary, MAusIMM CP(Geo), an independent consultant to Lundin Gold, both of whom are Qualified Persons within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of
Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”).
Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar values herein are in US dollars.
Important Information for US Investors
This presentation may use the terms “measured", “indicated“, “inferred" and “historical” mineral resources. U.S. investors are advised that, while such terms are recognized
and required by Canadian regulations, the Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize them. “Inferred mineral resources" and “historical estimates” have a
great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral
resource or a historical estimate will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of
feasibility or other economic studies. Further, historical estimates are not recognized under Canada’s NI 43-101. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any
part of measured or indicated mineral resources will ever be converted to mineral reserves.
This presentation is not an offer of securities for sale in the United States or in any other jurisdiction. The Company’s securities have not been and will not be registered
under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended and may not be offered or sold within the United States absent registration or an application exemption from
registration.
