CREATING A PREMIER AFRICAN GOLD PRODUCER

FACTSHEET 2018MININGENDEAVOUR EDV:TSX

Endeavour Mining is focused on becoming a premier intermediate African gold producer with a portfolio of high quality mines.

The Company has established a solid operational and construction track record and delivers cash fl ow from its fi ve operating mines, which are expected to produce between 670 and 720Koz of gold at an AISC of $840 to $890/oz in 2018. Endeavour also has immediate growth potential through its high-quality development projects which include the construction-stage Ity CIL project and DFS-stage Kalana project. In addition, Endeavour o� ers long-term upside through its exploration program which aims to discover 10-15Moz of gold between 2017 and 2021 which represents more than twice the reserve depletion during the period.

When I became CEO in 2016 we established a new strategy that was focused on building a portfolio of high quality assets to support a long-term sustainable business. We set ourselves an objective of increasing gold production to more than 800,000 ounces, reducing All-in Sustaining Costs to below $800/oz and extending the average mine life within our portfolio to more than 10 years by 2019.

We believe that once these strategic objectives are met, we will have created a sustainable platform that will enable us to generate enough cash to both reinvest into the business - to fund growth and exploration - and pay dividends.

To achieve our objectives, we have built our strategy around four pillars: operational excellence, project development, unlocking exploration value, and the management of our portfolio and balance sheet.

This strategy has already proven successful as we continue to deliver against these strategic pillars. We have signifi cantly increased the quality of our portfolio by successfully building the Houndé project, while divesting the non-core Youga and Nzema mines and acquiring the Karma mine and Kalana project. As part of our aggressive exploration campaign, we have enjoyed considerable success in the Ity mine which has generated the CIL project, where construction began in late 2017.

Looking ahead, I am excited about the future and confi dent that we are well on our way to building a premier African gold producer.

“Our goal is to create a sustainable business with high quality mines that generate su� cient cash fl ow to both reinvest into the business - to fund growth and exploration - and pay dividends.”

ITY MINE & ITY CIL PROJECT AGBAOU MINE TABAKOTO MINE

Ity has produced over 1.2Moz since its start in 1991. The Ity CIL Project is expected to give a second life to the Ity mine with a long 14-year mine life based on current reserves. The Feasibility Study outlined the potential for Ity to deliver average production of 165Koz over the first 5 years at an AISC of US$507/oz.

Agbaou was built ahead of schedule and under the 160m budget, commercial production was declared in January 2014. Agbaou has delivered very strong cash fl ows, with a payback period of less than 2 years.

Tabakoto was acquired in 2012 following which the Segala open pit was converted to an underground mine and the Kofi C open pit was commissioned, and mill capacity was doubled. Current e¢ orts are focused on cost-optimization and exploration.

KALANA PROJECT HOUNDÉ MINE KARMA MINE

The Kalana Gold Project was acquired by Endeavour in 2017, to further strengthen Endeavour’s high quality project pipeline. Endeavour expects to take advantage of its construction expertise, operating synergies and exploration experience to re-design and optimize the current feasibility study, which is expected to increase the annual production profi le and improve the project economics.

The Houndé mine was successfully built ahead of schedule and below budget, with its fi rst gold pour occurring in October 2017. Houndé has become the Company's fl agship low-cost mine, ranking amongst West Africa's top tier cash generating mines.

The Karma mine was acquired in 2016, shortly after its fi rst gold pour. Karma includes six identifi ed gold deposits and is a shallow open pit with little blasting required and a low strip ratio, making it a low cost operation. In 2017, an optimization project was completed to lift the stacking capacity.

Ity Mine and CIL Project

Ity has the longest operating history of any gold mine in Côte d’Ivoire, with more than 1.2 million ounces of gold in its 20-plus years of operation. Exploration success, which has increased resources from approximately 0.5Moz to circa 4Moz in the past few years, has generated the potential to replace the heap leach operation with a larger CIL plant (more details are provided on the following page). The current heap leach operation is expected to continue until the CIL plant is commissioned in 2019.

EXPLORATION POTENTIALIn 2017, Endeavour dedicated $8 million to Tabakoto’s exploration program, totalling 56,200 meters of drilling. The campaign was focused on both underground resource delineation and testing near-mill open pit targets. Depleted ounces were replaced and a portion of the new M&I resources was converted.Endeavour is investing $6 million in the 2018 exploration program, totalling approximately 45,000 of drilling. This will be allocated equally between near-mill targets (both underground and open pit) and greenfi eld targets on both the Kofi permit and on the new permits acquired in 2017, located immediately north of Kofi and on-trend with Randgold’s Loulo deposits.

EXPLORATION POTENTIALA $5 million exploration program is planned for 2018, with the objective of completing 45,000 meters of drilling to provide an updated resource which is expected to form the basis for the updated feasibility study. Exploration is focused on infill and extension drilling at the Kalana deposit, as well as further drilling the previously discovered Kalanako deposit. Additional exploration is also expected to take place on the recently acquired Fougadian license and on permits which are expected to be granted shortly.

We are strategically positioned to unlock exploration value with an experienced team in place and one of West-Africa’s largest and most promising exploration portfolios. Our exploration strategy is based on methodically screening and ranking targets within our portfolio and then maintaining a 5-year exploration program based on priorities. Our aggressive exploration program aims to discover 10-15Moz of gold between 2017 and 2021, which represents more than twice the reserve depletion, to increase the average mine lives to above 10 years.

AMONGST LARGEST & MOST PROMISING PORTFOLIOS IN WEST AFRICAThe Birimian greenstone belt of West Africa is one of the world’s most prospective gold bearing regions. Stretching across large parts of West Africa, with nearly half located in Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso, the Birimian rocks form parallel belts that generally trend north-easterly and are 40 to 50 km wide and about 90 km apart. These formations have long been recognised for their prospectivity and remain the prime focus for much gold exploration activity in the region. Today, West Africa lies behind only China, Australia and Russia in terms of gold production and still has considerable unmined reserves and excellent potential, particularly in the under-explored parts of the belt in Ivory Coast and Burkina Faso where Endeavour has one of the largest land packages.

EMPLOYEES— We are committed to excellence and strive to develop our local talents with continuous training and evaluations with the goal of promoting our people internally.

Our long-term goal is to hire over 90% of our workforce directly from the country in which each of our operations is located, to support the development of our host country. We actively pro-mote gender equality and empower our female talent with the objective of accelerating individual and collective sustainable development. Mining pro-grams are implemented on our sites to widen access to employment opportu-nities in the mining sector.

COMMUNITY— We recognize that local communities are at the heart of our operations’ liveli-hoods and are fundamental to our day to day work. We are committed to build-ing strong relationships and proactively engaging in dialogue with local commu-nities and institutions, as well as the government at a local, regional, and national level. Ultimately, we believe that the construction and operation of our mines can serve as a catalyst for further long-term regional development.

Where resettlement is necessary, we engage with a¢ ected communities early on to assess and mitigate the potential impact and work closely with them throughout the process to ensure their expectations and needs are not only met, but exceeded.

We facilitate community development programs with a special focus on educa-tion and training – in addition to our mining investments, we are launching and fi nanc-ing other sustainable income-generating projects which seek to build the momen-tum that will attract other investors and ultimately create a local sustainable eco-nomic capital for the region.

HEALTH & SAFETY— We consider this a collective responsibility which we extend to our subcontractors and host communities, and we work diligently to instill a per-sonal sense of responsibility in all our employees.

Our health and safety site teams are committed to identifying occupational health and safety hazards based on job safety analysis and comprehensive hazard and risk assessments, using widely established methodologies. Going beyond the regulatory require-ments, our prevention programs further include awareness sessions, operational training and inspections and are supplemented by additional initiatives that promote our health and safety objectives and policy.

ENVIRONMENT— We are committed to sustainable development and recognize that the long-term success of our business is dependent upon good stewardship of the environment, both in terms of exploration and the extraction of min-eral resources. We closely monitor and seek to continuously improve our performance in dangerous substance management, waste management, water usage, emissions, biodiversity and energy sources.

Our operations are compliant with the environmental regulations of the countries in which we operate, and our site environment teams continu-ally strive to improve our processes and operations in pursuit of improved environmental performance and risk management.
