This presentation contains forward-looking information. Forward looking information contained in this presentation includes, but is not limited to, statements with respect to: (i) the estimation of measured,

inferred and indicated mineral resources and proven and probable mineral reserves including, without limitation, statements with respect to the potential establishment of new mineral resources and/or reserves

and the expansion potential of existing mineral resources/reserves and the expansion potential of mining operations including with respect to proposed development at Bagassi South and the anticipated timing

thereof; (ii) proposed exploration and development activities (including reinvestment in operating mines), and the anticipated cost, nature, success and timing thereof, as well as any potential resulting

mineralization and/or margin potential; (iii) production, earnings, recovery rates, throughput, margin, and cost guidance as well as future sources of funding, cash flow, capital expenditures and exploration

budgets, (iv) permitting; and (v) expansion and growth potential and the anticipated timing thereof including the anticipated production at Bagassi South and the timing thereof, future economics and

development activities related thereto, and other future production and anticipated grades; (vi) expectations the Company will be within its 2019 cost guidance; (vii) statements that are not of historical fact; (viii)

anticipated production and resource per share growth; (ix) future external growth opportunities including with respect to the Séguéla gold project and other permits, and the potential prospectivity thereof; and

(x) the development potential of the Séguéla gold project and the forthcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment and an upgraded Mineral Resource estimate for the Séguéla Gold Project anticipated for release

in Q4 2019. For further details regarding the Yaramoko project, please refer to the technical report entitled “Technical Report for the Yaramoko Gold Mine, Burkina Faso” dated December 20, 2017 (the “Yaramoko

Technical Report”) and the technical report prepared for the Séguéla Gold Project entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report, Séguéla Project, Worodougou Region, Cote d’Ivoire” dated July 23, 2019 (the “Séguéla

Technical Report” and together with the Yaramoko Technical Report, the “Technical Reports”.

These statements are based on information currently available to the Company and the Company provides no assurance that actual results will meet management's expectations. In certain cases, forward-looking

information may be identified by such terms as "anticipates", "believes", "could", "estimates", "expects", "may", "shall", "will", or "would". Forward-looking information contained in this presentation is based on

certain factors and assumptions regarding, among other things, the estimation of mineral resources and mineral reserves (and potential establishment and increases in respect thereof), the potential expansion of

mining operations, the realization of resource estimates and reserve estimates, gold metal prices, the timing, success and amount of future exploration and development expenditures, and materials to continue

to explore and develop the Yaramoko project and other property interests in the short and long-term, the progress of exploration and development activities, the receipt of necessary regulatory approvals and

permits, and assumptions with respect to currency fluctuations, environmental risks, title disputes or claims, and other similar matters. While the Company considers these assumptions to be reasonable based on

information currently available to it, they may prove to be incorrect.

Forward looking information involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from

any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking information. Such factors include risks inherent in the exploration, risks relating to variations in mineral resources

and mineral reserves, grade or recovery rates resulting from current exploration and development activities (including risks that new mineral resources and/or reserves may not be established, or the anticipated

expansion potential of existing mineral resources/reserves or mining operations may not be realized), risks relating to changes in gold prices and the worldwide demand for and supply of gold, risks related to

increased competition in the mining industry generally, risks related to current global financial conditions, uncertainties inherent in the estimation of mineral resources and mineral reserves, access and supply

risks, reliance on key personnel, operational risks inherent in the conduct of mining activities including the risk of accidents, labour disputes, increases in capital and operating costs and the risk of delays or

regulatory risks, including risks relating to the acquisition of the necessary licenses and permits, capitalization and liquidity risks, risks related to disputes concerning property titles and interest, risks that closing

and environmental risks. Please refer to the 2019 Management’s Discussion and Analysis filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com on August 13, 2019 for political, environmental or other risks that could materially

affect the development of mineral resources and mineral reserves and other forward looking matters. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of the Company's forward-looking information.

These and other factors should be considered carefully and readers should not place undue reliance on the Company's forward-looking information. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-

looking information that may be made from time to time by the Company or on its behalf, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.

Mineral Reserve Statement – Yaramoko Gold Mine

1. Mineral Reserves are reported in accordance with NI 43-101 with an effective date of December 31, 2018 and are included in Mineral Resources. Mineral Reserve estimates reflect the Company’s

reasonable expectation that all necessary permits be maintained. Mining dilution and mining recovery vary by deposit and have been applied in estimating the Mineral Reserves.

2. Mineral Reserves are the economic portion of the Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources. Mineral Reserve estimates including mining dilution at grades assumed to be1.2g/t and 1.0g/t gold for 55

Zone and Bagassi South respectively. Mining dilution and recovery factors vary with specific reserve sources and are influenced by several factors including deposit type, deposit shape and mining

methods.

3. The 2018 Mineral Reserves were prepared under the supervision of Benny Zhang, Principal Mining Engineer at SRK, Peng (PEO # 100115459). Mr. Benny Zhang is a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-

101 and independent of the Company.

4. The Mineral Reserve Statement effective on December 31, 2018 is reported at a cut-off grade of 3.7 g/t gold for the Zone 55 deposit assuming metal price of US$1,300 per ounce of gold, mining cost of

US$98.19 per tonne, G&A cost of US$19.31 per tonne, processing cost of US$23.75 per tonne, and process recovery of 98.3%; and a cut-off grade of 3.1 g/t gold for the Bagassi South deposit assuming

metal price of US$1,300 per ounce of gold, mining cost of US$76.10 per tonne, G&A cost of US$19.31 per tonne, processing cost of US$23.75 per tonne, and process recovery of 98.3%. Reserve

estimates include mining dilution and mining recovery.

5. All figures have been rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimates.

6. For further information, please refer to the technical report dated December 20, 2017 and entitled “Technical Report for the Yaramoko Gold Mine, Burkina Faso” available the Company’s website and on

SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
