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 operating 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 Amended and Restated Annual Information Form dated

November 15, 2016, 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.

Teranga Gold Competent & Qualified Persons Statement

12

The technical information contained in this document relating to the open pit mineral reserve estimates is based on, and fairly represents, information compiled by Mr. William

Paul Chawrun, P. Eng who is a member of the Professional Engineers Ontario, which is currently included as a "Recognized Overseas Professional Organization" in a list

promulgated by the ASX from time to time. Mr. Chawrun is a full time employee of Teranga and is not "independent" within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101.

However, he is a "Qualified Person" as defined in NI 43-101. Mr. Chawrun 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 Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the "Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration

Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves". Mr. Chawrun is a "Qualified Person" under National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. Mr.

Chawrun has consented to the inclusion in this Report of the matters based on his compiled information in the form and context in which it appears in this Report.

The technical information contained in this document relating to mineral resource estimates is based on, and fairly represents, information compiled by Ms. Patti Nakai-Lajoie.

Ms. Nakai-Lajoie, P. Geo., is a Member of the Association of Professional Geoscientists of Ontario, which is currently included as a "Recognized Overseas Professional

Organization" in a list promulgated by the ASX from time to time. Ms. Nakai-Lajoie is a full time employee of Teranga and is not "independent" within the meaning of National

Instrument 43-101. Ms. Nakai-Lajoie has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralization and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which

she is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the "Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore

Reserves". Ms. Nakai-Lajoie is a "Qualified Person" under National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. Ms. Nakai-Lajoie has consented to the

inclusion in this Report of the matters based on her compiled information in the form and context in which it appears in this Report.

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 2012 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 2012 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.

1) Cash flow is the Life of Mine net cash flow based on the Company’s most recent NI 43-101 Technical Report (“43-101 plan”) filed in March 2016, before income taxes, interest, debt

repayments, closure costs, dividends and working capital.

2) Teranga’s Sabodala Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources estimates as at December 31, 2015 as per Company disclosure. For more information regarding Teranga Gold’s

Mineral Reserves and Resources and related notes, please refer to Teranga Gold’s December Quarter and Year-end 2015 Report accessible on the Teranga’s website at

www.terangagold.com.

3) This production profile is based on existing proven and probable reserves only from the Sabodala mining license 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 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) 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 February 21, 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$1,238 SPOT gold price per ounce, 5% discount, 0.76 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 accessible on the Company’s website at www.terangagold.com.
