Kouroussa Exploration Upside

Results from a more in depth data review of the Kouroussaproject conducted as part of Hummingbird’s initial due diligence highlighted:

• The high grade nature of the Kouroussa gold system which includes Koekoe, Kinkine, X-Vein and Bag Farm –Junction

• Further upside potential for open pit and underground resources outside of the current stated mineral resource of 1.1Mozs

• The presence of gram metre intervals greater than 100 gram metres

o A sign of the potential world class nature of the Kouroussa gold system

o Further focused exploration is planned to confirm this

• All deposits remain open and further exploration work is required to enable Hummingbird to fully evaluate the potential of the Project

Guinea as a mining jurisdictionGUINEA HAS A WELL ESTABLISHED MINING CODE AND EXISTING OPERATING MINING SECTOR

The Mining Code

• Final amendments to the “new” code were promulgated in April

2013

• The Government has the right to 15% non-dilutable free-carried

interest and to acquire up to a further 20% interest for cash

• These are maximum levels of Government participation – final terms

in every case to be negotiated individually in a Mining Agreement

between the Government and the mining company

Mining in Guinea

• Mining accounts for over 70% of the country’s exports

• Several “majors” are already present in the country

• Deposits of bauxite, iron ore, gold and diamonds with significant

Over 1Moz of Indicated and Inferred Resources outside the

current mine plan. Historical Resource to Reserves

conversion rate of 55%

2020 Exploration Programme to convert significant

Resources to Reserves:

1. Sanioumale East & West: Oxide, Medium - High grades, open pitable, remain open along strike and depth into the fresh rock. Sanioumale East not yet in reserves, intersections such as 10.5m at 5.4 g/t gold from hole SNDD0029, which require follow up work, demonstrate future resource growth

2. Komana East Underground: High grades, underground potential not currently in Reserves. Drilling to date has intersected and confirmed the presence and continuity of mineralisation that extends beyond the previous limit of the resource model

3. Greenfields targets: Located within 5-8kms from process plant, targeting high grade oxide ore

1. A preliminary economic assessment is preliminary in nature and include inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized. Additionally, inferred mineral resources are subject to uncertainty as to their existence and their economic legal feasibility. See “Disclosure” on page 1 and “PEA Assumptions” in the Appendix.

2. PEA on Dugbe 1 Project prepared by Wardell Armstrong, April 2013 (3.5 Mtpa plant tank leach, owner operated case). Mineral Resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

• 2,355 km2 under MDA for 25 years, with 140 exploration targets

• Earn-in agreement with ARX Resources to develop project

• Over $70 million spent on the Dugbe Project to date

Transaction Highlights• US$2m nonrefundable deposit by ARX• Earn-in up to 49% economic value of the Project• 2 year earn-in period but right to extend by 12 months for payment of US$1m per

month• Hummingbird representation on ARX board to ensure alignment of interests with

Hummingbird shareholders

Earn in Conditions / Development plan• 2 year term• Delivery of Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) with ARX covering all related costs• Undertaking a mutually agreed exploration programme of circa US$10m with

the objective of materially increasing the known resource base of the Project• ARX to cover overhead and operating costs associated with the Project during

the 2 year earn-in period

Strategic Rational• Retained control whilst working with a highly experienced team with significant

West African experience who share our vision for unlocking the significantintrinsic value at the Dugbe Project

• Hummingbird shareholders retain the significant upside potential in the project(currently not valued in the share price) whilst not shouldering the capital riskallowing the free cash flow generated from Yanfolila to be deployed as part ofthe wider group capital allocation strategy
