Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Information

TSXV: GTT 2

Certain statements included in this presentation constitute forward-looking statements, including those identified by the words “proposed”, “will”, anticipate”, “believe”, “plan”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “may”, “should” and similar words and expressions to the extent they relate to GT Gold Corp. (the “Company”) or its management. The forward-looking statements are not historical facts and are based on current expectations and various estimates, factors and assumptions, and therefore involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors. Any forward-looking statements represent the Company’s estimates only as of the date of this presentation and should not be relied upon as representing the Company’s estimates as of any subsequent date. The material factors and assumptions that were applied in making the forward looking statements in this presentation include:

  • execution of the Company’s existing plans or exploration programs for its properties, which may change due to changes in the views of the Company, or if new information arises

which makes it prudent to change such plans or programs; and

  • the accuracy of current interpretations of geochemical, geophysical, drilling and other exploration results, since new information or new interpretations of existing information may

result in changes in the Company’s expectations. Readers should not place undue reliance on the Company’s forward-looking statements, as the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements may differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements if known or unknown risks, uncertainties or other factors affect the Company’s business, or if the Company’s estimates or assumptions prove inaccurate. Therefore, the Company cannot provide any assurance that such forward-looking statements will materialize. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

QA/QC PROCEDURES

GT Gold has implemented a rigorous quality assurance / quality control (QA/QC) program to ensure best practices in sampling and analysis of RC chips and diamond drill core, the complete details of which can be viewed on the Company’s website at http://www.gtgoldcorp.ca/projects/tatogga/ For full details on both Saddle North and Saddle South reverse circulation and diamond drill program assay results widths reported in this presentation, please refer to the corresponding press release available on the Company website at www.gtgoldcorp.ca/news/. All assays are performed by ALS Canada Ltd. (Minerals), with sample preparation carried out at the ALS facility in Terrace, BC, and assays at the North Vancouver laboratory. Assay values are uncut. For gold, fire assays are performed as per ALS protocol Au-AA26 (0.01-100.00 g/t Au) using 50 grams of sample with assays equal to or greater than 5 g/t Au calculated gravimetrically, and lower-grade samples measured by (AA) atomic absorption. All samples that return equal to or greater than 5 g/t Au from initial fire assaying are additionally sent for screen metallic analysis using the remainder of the pulp (~950 grams of sample). This step is taken to ensure that any coarse grained, nugget gold fraction that may have been missed in the fire assays has been captured. GT Gold Corp.’s Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 is Charles James Greig, P.Geo., M.Sc., Vice President, Exploration. Mr.Greig has reviewed and approved the technical information in this presentation.

GT Gold – Investment Opportunity with Optionality and Upside

Strong management team with technical expertise and a track record of value creation

SADDLE NORTH DISCOVERY

  • Exposure to both copper and gold
  • Large-scale, high-grade Cu-Au

porphyry system, mineralized to surface with scale and open along strike and at depth

  • Grades exceeding 1.0% CuEq /

1.5 g/t AuEq over 777 m including 1.5% CuEq / 2.0 g/t AuEq over 342 m (Hole TTD109)*

EXPLORATION UPSIDE

  • Saddle area

Highly prospective untested targets adjacent to Saddle discoveries

  • Quash Pass target

5-6 km long strong coincident soil and geophysical anomaly

  • ~7-8 km from Saddle area
  • Additional targets identified on

prospective 468 km2 property

SADDLE SOUTH DISCOVERY

  • Near surface high-grade Au-Ag

vein system open along strike and at depth

  • Development scenario optionality
  • Intersected grades of 10.0 g/t Au

and 46.84 g/t Ag over 57.3 m (Hole TTD135)*

*January 4, 2019 intra-day spot prices used to calculate CuEq and AuEq are: Cu: $2.57/lb, Au: $1,294.80/oz, Ag: $15.65/oz. All values are reported in USD and do not consider metal recoveries *Intervals are calculated using a 0.5 g/t Au cut-off, a maximum of three metres of internal dilution for vein-style mineralization, with no top cut applied. All intervals are reported as downhole drill widths and are expected to vary widely, and likely range between 20% and 70% of true width.

Initial metallurgical testwork on composite samples from two zones of mineralization:

  • 1. Deeper high-grade core (>1% CuEq)

 Results: recovered 88% of the copper and 67% of the gold in a concentrate grading 24.5% Cu and 32.2 g/t Au

  • 2. Broad envelope of mineralization

(>0.25% CuEq)  Results: recovered 75% of the copper and 57% of the gold in a concentrate grading 22.0% Cu and 23.3 g/t Au  Potential for a simple, conventional flowsheet Further comminution testing, with results expected in Q3 2020

  • Three composite samples are being collected:
  • 2 from potential open pit limits (1 from broad envelope of mineralization + 1 from high-grade core)
  • 1 from deeper high-grade core of mineralization with underground mining potential

2019 Drilling program achieved 25,000 m goal 2020 Q1 Current and ongoing non-drilling activities:

  • Saddle North - 31,163 m core relog is now completed and data is being compiled into a geological model, on

track for completion for end of Q1 2020. This model will form the foundation for an initial resource estimate in Q2 2020, and engineering work and studies are also ongoing to deliver the PEA in Q4 2020.

  • Exploration - a dedicated exploration team is now integrating various datasets to define new 2020 drill targets

2019 Drilling Summary

25,146 m Total drilling completed in 2019 23,857 m Saddle North

  • Completed exploration, delineation and infill drilling to supply sufficient

data to support generation of geological model through preparation of an initial inferred resource to be released in Q2 2020 1,289 m Saddle South

  • Obtained oriented core data to: 1) better understand controls on

mineralization, 2) to collect a representative metallurgical sample, 3) provide necessary control for construction of a geological model

Copper Outlook – Growing Demand for New Supply

Mine production and demand for mine supply Mt (forecasts after 5% disruption allowance)1

Global copper supply declines with diminishing long-term production1,2

  • Mine production expected to peak by 2022,

creating structural deficit

  • Long-term production affected by decreasing

mined grades and increasing capital intensity Demand for copper is growing sustainably3

  • Driven by copper’s inherent high-efficiency and environmental

benefits

  • Driven by increased demand for electric vehicles and renewable

energy systems

  • Green initiatives led by China - with a predicted 50% of total

primary-energy supply coming from renewable sources by 2050
