Canadian-listed (TSX: GCM) producer with offices in Toronto and Medellin. Also listed in the US on the OTCQX (TPRFF).

Primary focus is on the high-grade Segovia Operations. Continuing to explore, expand and mechanize the underground

mining operations (89% of total H1-2018 production). In August 2017, announced a 4-year extension in mine life to 2026.

The Marmato Project, one of the Top-20 largest undeveloped global gold deposits, provides significant optionality to gold and

silver prices. Currently evaluating the potential to expand the existing underground mining operations, incorporating additional

resources from the deep mineralization.

The Zancudo Project, a former high-grade producer, provides exploration upside. IAMGOLD signed an option agreement in

2017 and is conducting exploration (drilling) toward a potential purchase and joint venture on the project.

In 2018, we simplified our capital structure and strengthened our balance sheet. At June 30, 2018, we had US$25M of

cash on the balance sheet. As of October 31, 2018, our total debt is down to US$88M.

LTM (September 2018) gold production of 214,439 ounces, up ~23%

over 2017 annual production.

LTM (June 2018) Adjusted EBITDA of $95M yielded $25M of Excess

Cash Flow.

Upside in resource expansion and exploration assets in Colombia.

Leading Colombian high-grade underground gold producer.

SEGOVIA OPERATIONSAccelerate Growth Exploration Initiative

Short and mid-term accelerated growth exploration initiative

focused on:

• An organic growth through resource and reserve expansion at the Company’s core operating mines;

• Consolidate other advance deposits, e.g. LAVS, maybe suitable for LHOS;

• Follow-up brownfield exploration targets, e.g. Cristales, Cogote, Vera, San Nicolas, etc.

• EXPLORATION DRILLING aimed to test the deposit to the west of the current underground development. No previous drilling carried out on this sector of the mine.

PROVIDENCIA

U/G drilling

• STEP-OUT DRILLING aimed to test the down-plunge extension of a high-grade ore-shoot on the Manto Vein, located at the northernmost end of the mine. Drilling designed on nominal 25m x 25m center spacing. It also aimed to test the Manto Vein in between the Pre-K and K faults.

EL SILENCIO

U/G drilling

• STEP-OUT U/G DRILLING aimed to test the down-plunge extension of the main ore-shoots located within the north fault block of the Sandra K mine. Drilling designed on nominal 20m x 20m center spacing, and planned to guide the U/G development up to Level 6.

SANDRA K

VEINS SYSTEM

U/G drilling

• STEP-OUT DRILLING aimed to test the down-plunge extension of the north, middle and south high-grade ore-shoots 200 meters below the deepest levels of the existing operation. Drilling designed on nominal 50m x 50m center spacing.

EL SILENCIO DEEP

U/G drilling

CARLA

U/G drilling

• STEP-OUT DRILLING aimed to test the south extension of the main ore-shoot, and follow-up a high-grade intercept along strike and dip.

Up to 30,000m of infill drilling planned for 2019
