This presentation contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions and accordingly, actual results and
future events could differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. You are hence cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Forward-
looking statements include words or expressions such as “development”, “payback period”, “during the first three years", “projected", “LOM plan", “life of mine”, “schedule”, “estimate”,
“initial”, “next step”, “growth story”, “objectives”, “continues”, "on time and on budget“, “upside" and other similar words or expressions. Factors that could cause future results or events
to differ materially from current expectations expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include the ability to begin production at Boungou in Q3 2018, the ability to meet the
various highlights of the feasibility study of Boungou, including with respect to the (i) project economics at $1,100/oz, (ii) anticipated average annual production, total cash cost, AISC
and head grade during the first three years, (iii) ability to produce some 1.2 million ounces over a projected LOM in excess of 7 years, and (iv) projected LOM total cash cost and AISC,
the ability to meet Boungou’s projected LOM Plan, cash flow, mine and processing schedule over eight years, the ability to complete the construction of Boungou on time and on budget,
the ability to convert inferred resources in the West and East Boungou flanks to indicated resources and to complete a PFS in Q1 2018, the ability to improve Boungou’s production and
economics as of year 4, the ability to meet all of the operating, mining, process plant and consumables costs as well as the other mining parameters set forth in the Boungou NI-43 101
Technical Report dated March 23, 2016, the accuracy of our assumptions, fluctuation in the price of currencies, gold prices and operating costs, mining industry risks, uncertainty as to
calculation of mineral reserves and resources, delays, political and social stability in Africa (including our ability to maintain or renew licenses and permits) and other risks described in
SEMAFO’s documents filed with Canadian securities regulatory authorities. You can find further information with respect to these and other risks in SEMAFO’s 2016 Annual MD&A, as
updated in SEMAFO’s 2017 First Quarter MD&A, 2017 Second Quarter MD&A, 2017 Third Quarter MD&A and other filings made with Canadian securities regulatory authorities and
available at www.sedar.com. These documents are also available on our website at www.semafo.com. SEMAFO disclaims any obligation to update or revise these forward- looking
statements, except as required by applicable law.
We also advise you that the terms “Inferred Resources” and “Indicated Resources”, although recognized and required by the Canadian Securities Administrators, are not recognized by
the US Securities and Exchange Commission. There is no certainty that Inferred Resources or Indicated Resources will be economically mineable.
All mineral resources are exclusive of mineral reserves.
All amounts are in US dollars unless otherwise indicated.2

1 The Corporation indirectly owns a 100% interest in all of its permits, except for the permits held
by SEMAFO Boungou S.A., in which the Government of Burkina Faso holds a 10% interest.2 Mineral reserves and resources at Mana and at Tapoa (Natougou Project) were estimated
using a gold price of $1,100 and $1,400 per ounce, respectively.3 Rounding of numbers of tonnes and ounces may present slight differences in the figures.4 All mineral resources reported are exclusive of mineral reserves.5 As of December 31, 2016.
