Tongon Mine…Randgold’s history in Côte d’Ivoire

Tongon…safety, health and environment

Zero Class 1 or major environmental incidents

Tongon continued to manage water effectively with over 90% reduction in fresh water usage

Water management system in place with prioritized reuse of process water

Wetland management system being conducted to assist in the reduction of nitrates, arsenic and sediments from the pit

Project implemented on site to capture arsenic in the tailings

EnvironmentHealth and SafetyLTIFR increased to 2.48 – 3 injuries sustained by contractor

Tongon remains ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 certified

4 people trained in Occupational Hygiene at the workplace during the quarter

59 supervisors trained in Supervising Safely by RRC, IOSH UK

Tongon in partnership program with the IDEAL NGO continues to effectively manage public health (Malaria and HIV / AIDS) through prevention programmes on the mine and in surrounding community

Tongon performance imperatives…action steps

Ramp up tonnage throughput to targeted 4.5mtpa (key to achieving LOM ounce profile) by optimising total crushing circuit, inclusive of the quaternary circuit

On track to achieve market guidance of 285koz in 2017 at total cash cost of below $700/oz

Optimise rougher flotation operation to improve recovery - install 4th flotation rougher cell in Q4 2017

Upgrade oxygen plant capacity with additional 20tpd oxygen to facilitate recovery improvement

Complete the power supply busbar reconfiguration and capacitator installation to improve power supply stability

Maintain and improve community relations, communication and social development, skills upgrading

Find additional resources and reserves to replace depletion and extend LOM

Manage orebody and maintain its grade integrity

Maintain and improve environmental, health and safety outputs, eliminating LTIs
