Cajueiro

• 39,053 Ha project with mining licenses granted. 13,301m of previous drilling and 94 drill holes. 85% of gold-in-soil anomalies remain untested.

• NI 43-101 compliant resource based on 11,292m of drilling – Indicated 214,000oz Au at 0.771 g/t; and an Inferred 282,000oz Au at 0.804 g/t (of which 78,400oz Au at 1.775 g/t in the oxide saprolite domain)

• Historic surface gold workings produced +250,000oz Au. Soil sampling has identified 10 gold anomalies of which 4 have been only partially drill tested

• Metallurgical testing proved an up to 96.2% recovery rate from a CIL processing plant

Mineralized drill core from Crente zone (CJO_095 @ 37.7m. Interval from 37.0 to

38.0m averages 8.2g/t Au

Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not demonstrate economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part of the mineral resource will be converted to mineral reserves. Quantity and grade are estimates and are rounded to reflect the fact that the resource estimate is an approximation

The estimate considered a gold price of $1,250 per ounce and a cut-off grade of 0.3g/t gold

Marines

Matrincha

Novo Sonho

Morro Verde

• Existing Resources are largely confined to Crente, Baldo and Marines zones

• Approximately 85% of the currently known soil anomalies are untested by drilling

11

Cajueiro - potential for production

• Metallurgical testing conducted by SGS GeosolLaboratorios Ltda (SGS) in 2012 returned gold recovery rates of 85% to 96% from gravity and cyanide leaching

• Altamira has a permit to mine at Cajueirothrough a Trial Mining License which has been granted. Environmental permits are pending and are expected during 2017

• An opportunity exists to develop a small 600 tpd CIL processing plant on site

• Altamira is planning to complete a Preliminary Economic Assessment during early 2018

Previous small scale alluvial mining at Cajueiro

12

• 8,323 ha with historical small scale production

• Good access. Located 105 km SSW of Eldorado Gold’s TZ project, expected to produce 170,000oz / year

• Small-scale historical mining was conducted along two gold bearing quartz veins, Picarreira and Boiadeiro. The Picarreira vein system is +400m strike and averages 6m in width. No previous drilling

• Of 10 initial samples 5 returned values in excess of 8g/t gold with values up to 39.26 g/t Au at Picarreira, and a spectacular 1022.98 g/t Au at Boiadeiro

13

Novo Canaa

• 9,694ha with historical small scale production estimated at 225,000oz of gold

• mineralized veins trending NW-SE in granitic rocks host gold

• 2 main target areas identified; Galopeira and Medeiro both of which are open along strike

• 25 previous drill holes totaling 2,256m drilled previously targeting the bedrock yielded 2m @ 7.2g/t Au, 2.9m @ 14.2g/t Au, & 1.5m @ 17.2g/t

Madeiro zone at Novo Canaa

Badao vein within Galopeira zone returned 2m @ 92.2g/t gold

14

2017 Objectives

• Complete additional drill program at Cajueiro project targeting previously untested gold-in-soil anomalies and expand current resource to +1Moz

• Commence PEA at Cajueiro with a view to completing study during Q1 2018

• Complete first phase drill program of Crepori target (veins 6m in width, surface values of +1000g/t gold)

• Identify deals on Canadian gold projects; Tom and Sickle (Au - NWT), Garland (Ni - Newfoundland) and Day (Cu - BC)

Complete re-organization of Board
