TSX: GCMMay 2017
Canadian-listed (TSX: GCM) producer with offices in Toronto/Medellin.
Primary focus is on high-grade Segovia Operations. Continuing toexpand and mechanize the underground mining operations (~84% oftotal production). Announced 174% increase in M&I resources to 1.1Mozs in April 2017.
The Marmato Project, one of the Top-20 largest undeveloped globalgold deposits, provides significant optionality to gold and silver priceswith current resources in excess of 14M ozs of gold and almost 90M ozsof silver. Deep mineralization holds potential to add resources.
The Zancudo Project, a former high-grade producer, providesexploration upside. IAMGOLD signed an option agreement in 2017 toconduct exploration and for the potential purchase of an interest.
Excess Cash Flow being set aside to retire Senior Debentures.Repurchasing debt through NCIBs launched in 2016.
Annual gold production increased 28% to 149,708 ounces in 2016.
AISC averaged US$850/oz for 2016 and 2017 average expected to be below US$900/oz.
Upside in resource expansion and exploration assets.
Leading Colombian high-grade underground gold producer. • undervalued versus peers!

Total cash cost for the Company of $706/oz in 2016 was down 3% from 2015.
Growth in production from the lower cost Segovia Operations (84% of total gold sales in 2016 vs 79% in 2015) was a key driver to reducing the Company’s total cash cost per ounce in 2016.
Segovia’s growth also helped to reduced its fixed operating costs on a per ounce basis. Marmato’s total cash cost per ounce was adversely impacted in 2016 by lower grades and mill recovery.
