Forward Looking StatementsThis document contains forward-looking statements that reflect the company’s current expectations regarding future events. To the extent that any statements in this document contain information that is not historical, the statements are essentially forward-looking and are often identified by works such as as “anticipates”, “intends”, “plans”, “expects”, “is expected”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “continues”, “forecasts”, “projects”, “predicts”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “targets”, or “believes”, or variations of, or the negatives of, such words and phrases or state that certain actions, eventsor results “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved. Forward looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause results to differ materially from those expressed or impliedby such forward-looking statements. There are many factors that could cause such differences, particularly: volatility and sensitivity to market metal process; impact of change in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates; imprecision in reserve estimates; environmental risks including increase regulatory burdens; unexpected geological conditions; adverse mining conditions; changes in government regulations and policies, including laws and policies; failure to obtain necessary permits and approvals from government authorities; and other development and operating risks.

Whereas the company believes the assumptions underlying in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on these statements, whether or not it should be revised because of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required to do so by the applicable securities laws.

(75% IAMGOLD, 25% Vanstar)

Inferred Resource: 97Mt @ 1.0 g/t Au = 3.2Moz Au

(currently deposit is ~1 km along strike and open in most directions)

October 22, 2019 IAMGOLD Corporation News Release

Mineralization at Nelligan is Not Typical of the Abitibi

→ Gold mineralization hosted in ductile-deformed sedimentary units within the

Druillette syncline and associated with the Guercheville Deformation Zone.

→ Pervasive alteration and replacement, with disseminated mineralization (rather

than veins); this style of mineralization is not common locally.

NEW DISCOVERY AT NELLIGAN → Game-Changing Discovery

1010

Another Nelligan to be Found?

→ The Nelligan host sedimentary units and structural fabrics strike WNW towards

the Muus Property; Muus and Nelligan have similar underlying geology and

setting.

→ Regional and local structures and deformation zones are common to both

Muus and Nelligan.

HISTORICAL WORK

11

• Majority of the exploration work on Muus between 1950’s and 1980’s, focused on

discrete parts of the property. Nisk and Muus East remain mostly unexplored.

• Previous work includes:

― 154 diamond-drill holes (ddh); mostly shallow and wide-spaced; anomalous drill

hole assays were often not followed-up

― Till sampling using RC drilling

― Airborne and ground geophysical surveys (magnetics, EM, VLF, IP)

― Mapping, trenching and sampling

BLUE THUNDER EXPLORATION

• Blue Thunder acquired the Muus property in 2017 and have gradually added to the

land position through staking and option agreements.

• Blue Thunder exploration includes:

― Airborne fixed wing aeromagnetic survey in early 2019, covering the original Muus

block (50-100 m spaced flight lines)

― Helicopter aeromagnetic survey (50-250 m spaced flight lines) in late 2019

covering the newly acquired ground at Muus, as well the Muus East and Nisk

properties (results pending)

― Regional prospecting/sampling and a trenching/ sampling program at prospective

Welb Showing (results pending)
