Forward-Looking Statements
3
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” 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, 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, the timing of completion of a Feasibility Study for the Banfora project, and Teranga’s estimated full year financial and
- perating 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 August 3, 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.

Mr. Sepp has sufficient experience relevant to the style of mineralization and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the JORC Code. Mr. Sepp has consented to the inclusion in this document of the matters based on his compiled information in the form and context in which it appears in this document. Teranga's exploration programs are being managed by Peter Mann, FAusIMM. Mr. Mann is a full time employee of Teranga and is not "independent" within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Mann has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the JORC Code. Mr. Mann is a "Qualified Person" under National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. The technical information contained in this presentation relating exploration results are based on, and fairly represents, information compiled by Mr. Mann. Mr. Mann has verified and approved the data disclosed in this release, including the sampling, analytical and test data underlying the information. The RC samples are prepared at site and assayed in the SGS laboratory located at the site. Analysis for diamond drilling is sent for fire assay analysis at ALS Johannesburg, South Africa. Mr. Mann has consented to the inclusion in this presentation of the matters based on his compiled information in the form and context in which it appears herein. Teranga's disclosure of mineral reserve and mineral resource information is governed by NI 43-101 under the guidelines set out in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the "CIM") Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as may be amended from time to time by the CIM ("CIM Standards"). CIM definitions of the terms "mineral reserve", "proven mineral reserve", "probable mineral reserve", "mineral resource", "measured mineral resource", "indicated mineral resource" and "inferred mineral resource", are substantially similar to the JORC Code corresponding definitions of the terms "ore reserve", "proved ore reserve", "probable ore reserve", "mineral resource", "measured mineral resource", "indicated mineral resource" and "inferred mineral resource", respectively. Estimates of mineral resources and mineral reserves prepared in accordance with the JORC Code would not be materially different if prepared in accordance with the CIM definitions applicable under NI 43-101. There can be no assurance that those portions of mineral resources that are not mineral reserves will ultimately be converted into mineral reserves. See the Appendix in the Teranga press release dated July 24, 2017 found on www.SEDAR.com for the JORC Code explanations relating to the results in this press release.
Endnotes
1) According to the CPM Gold Yearbook 2017, Transitional Economies include: Vietnam, North Korea, Soviet Union, Russia, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, Georgia, Tajikistan, and Cuba. 2) Teranga’s Sabodala Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources estimates as at June 30, 2017 as per Company disclosure. For more information regarding Teranga Gold’s Mineral Reserves and Resources and related notes, please refer to the press release title, “Teranga Gold Increases Sabodala's Reserve Base to 2.7 Million Ounces: Adds More Than 400,000 Ounces of Gold and Improves Five-Year Production and Cash Flow Profile” dated July 19, 2017 accessible on the Teranga’s website at www.terangagold.com. 3) This production target is based on existing proven and probable reserves only from the Sabodala mining license as at June 30, 2017 as disclosed on the Company’s website at www.terangagold.com and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. The estimated ore reserves underpinning this production guidance have been prepared by a competent person or persons in accordance with the requirements of the 2012 Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (the “2012 JORC Code”). Please refer to the Competent Persons Statement in this presentation. 4) “Free cash flow” is a non-IFRS financial measure and does not have a standard meaning under IFRS. The Company calculates free cash flow 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. Other companies may calculate this measure differently. Please see the Non-IFRS Performance Measures section in Management’s Discussion & Analysis for the three months ended June 30, 2017 available on the Company’s website at www.terangagold.com. 5) 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 July 31, 2017. 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$1,270 SPOT gold price per ounce, 5% discount, 0.80 USD/CAD exchange rate. For more information regarding Non-IFRS financial measures, please refer to Non-IFRS Performance Measures in the Company’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016 available on the Company’s website at www.terangagold.com.
