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
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. This presentation is as of January 17, 2018 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.

Teranga's exploration programs in Burkina Faso are 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 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”). Mr. Mann has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralization and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a "Qualified Person" under NI 43-101. The technical information contained in this news release relating to 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 and diamond core samples are assayed at the BIGGS Laboratory in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. Mr. Mann has consented to the inclusion in this news release of the matters based on his compiled information in the form and context in which it appears herein, and approved such disclosure. Quality Assurance and Quality Control For details on the quality assurance program and quality control measures applied during the execution of the exploration work and results reported on herein please refer to Chapter 11 – Sample Preparation, Analyses and Security of the Technical Report on the Wahgnion Gold Project, Burkina Faso West Africa dated October 20, 2017 available on the Company’s website at http://www.terangagold.com and SEDAR at www.sedar.com. 33

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
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. For more information regarding these measures, please refer to the Company’s management’s discussion and analysis accessible on the Company’s website at www.terangagold.com.

1. Refers to proven and probable reserves of 1.2Moz for the Wahgnion project as per reserve estimate as of September 7, 2017 included in the Wahgnion technical report dated October 20, 2017 available on the Company’s website at www.terangagold.com and SEDAR www.sedar.com. 2. Refers to proven and probable reserves of 2.7Moz for the Sabodala project as per reserve estimate as of June 30, 2017 included in the Sabodala technical report dated August 30, 2017 available on the Company’s website at www.terangagold.com and SEDAR www.sedar.com. 3. This production target is based on proven and probable reserves only from Teranga’s Sabodala Project as at June 30, 2017. For more information regarding Teranga Gold’s Mineral Reserves and Resources and related notes, please refer to the NI 43-101 compliant technical report for the Sabodala Project dated August 30, 2017 accessible on the Company’s website at www.terangagold.com and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. 4. This production target is based on proven and probable ore reserves only for Teranga’s Wahgnion Project as at September 7, 2017. For more information regarding the Wahgnion’s Mineral Reserves and Resources and related notes, please refer to the NI 43-101 compliant technical report for the Wahgnion Project dated October 20, 2017 accessible on the Company’s website at www.terangagold.com and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. 5. LOM assumptions include: Gold Price $1,250 per ounce Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO): Wahgnion - $0.59 per litre Sabodala - $0.46 per litre Light Fuel Oil (LFO): Wahgnion - $1.04 per litre ($0.88 per litre during construction period) Sabodala - $0.81 per litre Euro to USD Exchange Rate: $1.10 6. This Sabodala free cash flow is an estimate that is based on the updated life of mine plan and reserve estimate for the Sabodala project, as set out in the Technical Report of Teranga for the Sabodala Project, Senegal, West Africa, dated August 30, 2017 (the “Sabodala Technical Report”). See in particular Section 21 of the Sabodala Technical Report - Capital and Operating Costs. 7. See the NI 43-101 compliant technical report for the Wahgnion Project. This LOM production plan assumes that the Wahgnion Project plant construction will commence in Q1 2018. If the Wahgnion plant construction commences in Q2 2018 instead, the LOM production plan is expected to shift by several months. 8. Other considerations (uses) is an estimate of potential other uses of the Company’s cash during the period, including, but not limited to, discretionary exploration expenditures, financing costs and any cost overrun
