Forward Looking InformationThis document has been prepared by Asante Gold Corporation (the “Company”) solely for information purposes. This presentation is the sole responsibility of the Company. Information contained herein does not purport to be complete and is subject to certain qualifications and assumptions and should not be relied upon for the purposes of making an investment in the securities or entering into any transaction. The information and opinions contained herein are provided as at the date of this presentation and are subject to change without notice. The Company does not undertake or agree to any obligation to provide recipients with access to any additional information or to update or correct the presentation. ‘SMD’ refers to a drill mining method being developed by Anaconda Mining Inc. in collaboration with Memorial University of Newfoundland.

No securities commission or similar regulatory authority has passed on the merits of any securities referred to in the presentation, nor has it passed on or reviewed the presentation. Cautionary note to United States investors – certain information contained in the presentation uses terms that comply with reporting standards in Canada and estimates are made in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) -standards for disclosure for mineral projects. The presentation uses the terms “measured”, “indicated” and “inferred” resources. United States investors are advised that, while such terms are recognized and required by Canadian securities laws, the SEC does not recognize them. Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as “ore” or a “reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated resources will ever be converted into reserves. Further, “inferred resources” have a greater amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of the “inferred resources” will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Therefore, United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of the inferred resources exist, or that they can be mined legally or economically.

Under Canadian rules, estimates of “inferred resources” may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies except in limited cases. Disclosure of “contained ounces” is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute “reserves” as in place tonnage and grade without reference to the unit measures. Accordingly, information concerning descriptions of mineralization, mineral resources and mineral reserves contained in the presentation, may not be comparable to information made public by United States companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the US - SEC.

The presentation may contain “forward looking statements” within the meaning of the United States private securities litigation reform act of 1995 and “forward looking information” with the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation concerning, among other things, the size and the growth of the Company’s mineral resources and the timing of further exploration and development of the Company’s projects. There can be no assurance that the plans, estimates, intentions or expectations upon which these forward looking statements and information are based will occur. “Forward looking statements” and “forward looking information” are subject to a variety of risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Some of the factors which could affect future results and could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward looking statements and information contained herein include: market prices, exploitation and exploration successes, continued availability of capital and financing and general economic, market, business or governmental conditions. Forward looking statements and information are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of management at the date the statements are made and are subject to change without notice. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investors are cautioned that final closing of the Kubi Mining Lease purchase, Ashanti II concessions, Betenase, Keyhole and Goknet options are dependent on additional governmental renewals, approvals and consents, which though reasonably expected, may not be ultimately obtained.

The technical information contained in this presentation has been prepared under the supervision of and verified by Douglas R. MacQuarrie, the President , CEO and a Director of the Company who is a “Qualified Person” within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101. Certain of the directors and officers of Asante Gold Corporation also act as Directors or Officers of other companies, and therefore do not apply 100% of their time to the business of Asante Gold Corporation. Kubi Mineral Resource Estimate at the Kubi Main Deposit, Ghana, are based on a resource estimate that has been prepared by SEMS Exploration Services Ltd., of Accra, Ghana, and which is filed on SEDAR.com. The Ghana Government maintains a 10% equity and 5%NSR royalty interest in most mineral licenses in Ghana. The company also cautions potential investors that mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Asante’s plans going forward

Large bore SMD* - mining by drilling at Kubi - Update

Field work - Update

*SMD method is being developed and commercialized by Anaconda Mining Inc. in collaboration with Memorial University of Newfoundland.

❖ Gold has started to change from trading as acommodity to just being ‘real money’. Strongnegative correlation to US treasuries: at this timegold is a far better and safer savings alternative todepreciating fiat currencies with large counter-party risk (remember Lehman 2008?)

❖ Source financing for Kubi - Joint Venture/goldforward/project debt. Junior gold company sharesare highly leveraged to major catalysts such asobtaining CAPEX funding and an increasing goldprice environment.

❖ Equipment manufacturers are expressinginterest in the application. Asante will worktowards a full field test in 2020. Expect test to beself financing with immediate free gold recoveryfrom a proposed gravity plant.

❖ Kubi Main Zone located in Kubi Pit face -sampled 5.93g/t Au over 3.0 metre true width;survey control established; ground penetratingradar profiles taken; Kubi East IP trenchingunderway.

❖ Gold – has out performed bonds, the S&P and the US$ over the last 20 years

❖ In terms of gold - gold is just gold. 5,000 years ago one fine ounce would buy a top quality man orwomans suit, shirt, belt and shoes – and it still does today.

❖ The US$, on the other hand has lost some 82% of its purchasing power in just the last 23 years.

❖ This chart shows that gold isappreciating in all of the World’smajor currencies – its not just a US$‘fake news’ effect!

❖ World debt is becomingproblematic. It can’t ever be paidback. All countries are printingmoney to delay the inevitable debt/equity/asset bubble collapse.

❖ IMF will invent a new ‘magic’currency to replace the current US$based system and magically erasehundreds of trillions of sovereignand private debt. Eg - one newIMF$ is worth 10 old US$. Saversget killed, debtors get saved.

❖ Gold, given 5000 years of beingthe basis of all money, will likely bea major part of the new currencyand given its limited supply, mustbe revalued up.

Source financing to put Kubi into production – take advantage of ‘Open Window’

Future focus on Green Sustainable Mining

Explore for new high grade gold deposits

❖ Given depressed share prices we havefocused on finding non-equity dilutive jointventure project funding - up to a maximum 50%interest. Multiple negotiations are in progress.

❖ To gain investor confidence, mining goingforward must be green and sustainable as wellas profitable. We will focus on developing highgrade, long life underground deposits withminimal surface signatures; and power themwhere possible with renewable energy.

❖ Ghana is Africa’s largest and in our opinion,safest jurisdiction for gold mining. Ghana’s big+10Moz mines all have deep roots on majorgeological structures. All of our current projects– Kubi, Betenase, Keyhole and Fahiakoba are onmajor structures and have major explorationupside.

Alternative big bore drilling systems

Ground Penetrating Radar

Imaging – initial results

*SMD method is being developed and commercialized by Anaconda Mining Inc. in collaboration with Memorial University of Newfoundland.

❖ In recent discussions with Anaconda MiningInc. we have been advised that commercializationof the SMD method, including field tests of variousdrilling equipment, and downhole imaging systemswas continuing.

❖ Asante is also researching other large boredrilling systems that are currently operative andmay be readily adapted to direct mining of the Kubimineralization – such as shaft boring and largediameter reverse circulation drill rigs. A full fieldtest is planned in 2020, subject to financing.

❖ Analysis of surface GPR data recently acquiredat Kubi is underway. Results suggest that themineralization responds to the technique. Next weneed to test and select best downhole imagingequipment and techniques. Similar techniques havebeen used in South African deep gold mines formore than 20 years.

❑ Presidential constitutional democracy – pro business/pro rule of law/pro gold mining

❑ Well established mineral laws – largest gold producer in Africa@ 4.5Moz per year

❑ Gold rich Birimian source rocks + continental scale structures = big gold deposits

❑ Golden Triangle hosts >220Moz in gold resources/past production
