Corporate Presentation March 2015 March 2015

Serabi Gold and Brazil Serabi Gold plc is dual listed (TSX:SBI, AIM:SRB), gold mining and development company with operations in Northern Brazil. The Company is fully focused on becoming a significant junior gold producer in Brazil Stable democracy; strong & diversified economy Tapajos: major under-explored mineral region significant historic artisanal production An established mining industry with high potential Security of title & sound permitting process March 2015 1

Serabi s Operations The Company operates two high grade underground mines, Palito and Sao Chico, located just 25 km apart, in the Tapajos region of Para State. Palito is a successful restart of a brownfield site, having just completed its maiden year of production in 2014 and is now in full commercial production generating some 25,000 oz p.a. at average grades of 8-9g/t Au. Sao Chico is under development, with a 43-101 compliant mineral resource of 100koz at >26g/t gold ore. The principal vein structure was intersected in January this year, cutting 3.6m @ 42 g/t Au. Sao Chico ore will provide additional feed for the Palito plant from Q2/2015. The surplus capacity of the Palito plant, within comfortable trucking distance of Sao Chico made the combination of the assets an obvious decision. March 2015 2

The Tapajos Reported to have produced > 30 million ounces from artisanal operations Only 7 million ounces gold hard rock resources identified to date Palito well located for access, local infrastructure and local employee source Excellent mine site potential with 3 discoveries made and ready for evaluation. Sao Chico in developments and just 25km from Palito by road Through further acquisitions there is significant potential to add further near term production ounces in the region. March 2015 5

Palito and Sao Chico Mining Lease March 2015 6

Palito Gold Deposit Low Cost, Re-start Operation Over US$33m previously invested on mine infrastructure and development. 2014 has been the maiden year of production with commercial production declared July 2014. Produced >110,000 oz (Au eq.) between 2005 to 2008 greatly reducing future process and environmental risks. Mains Grid power at site with back up from diesel powered generators. Year round road access. Fully functioning camp for ~250 employees. Airstrip, roads, assay lab, hospital, warehousing and workshops all in place. Mining and environmental licenses issued and in good standing. With considerable available capacity (much of the plant is capable of 600 tpd), additional feed from Sao Chico can be comfortably accommodated. March 2015 7

Operations Update - Mine The mine was de-watered in 3 months Q4 2012. During 2013, the workforce, management, and mobile fleet was acquired, and mine developed. By April 2014, the mine was fully developed and production stoping commenced. Mining is undertaken by on lode development followed by selective open stoping between 30-40m vertically spaced levels. Palito is now in regime a high grade (8-9g/t gold), 240 tonne per day operation. Experienced underground mining labour at site with proven experience in underground selective mining. March 2015 8

Operations Update - Plant Plant commenced operating in January 2014, with commercial production declared since July 2014. The plant is now in full operation with approximately 2,500 oz gold produced each month, the past 5 months. Processing is by copper/gold flotation concentrate, followed by cyanidation of flotation tails, with gold recoveries exceeding 92%. Two milling lines are installed, with the view to dedicating one line to Sao Chico from Q2 2015. In the meantime, both lines are being used to treat Palito run of mine (ROM) and stockpiled material. In addition, over 50,000 tonnes of flotation tails from first nine months of operations in 2014 are now being processed through the CIP plant. March 2015 9

Sao Chico Gold Project 25km from Palito March 2015 11

Sao Chico Sao Chico lies some 25km from Palito, is linked by road (open year round) and has a 43-101 compliant mineral resource of 100koz at >26g/t. A trial license for mining 50,000 tonnes is in place. Mine development is underway with first development level underway. The principal vein structure was intersected January 2015, with 3.6m true width grading 42 g/t gold. Mine ore and waste development will continue this year, with first development ore being transported and processed at Palito Gold plant Q2 2015. Will use the same mining method as Palito, bringing management and operational synergies. A further drilling campaign is planned for Q2 2015, with an updated geological resource planned for Q3 2015. March 2015 12

Sao Chico spectacular grades The current publicly disclosed mineral resource at Sao Chico estimated in 2012 comprises ~25,000 oz Au (Measured + Indicated) and ~71,000 oz Au (Inferred). This was based upon 3,200m drilling in 2011. The company since undertook 5,000m of in fill and step out drilling in 2013, which indicated the resource remains totally open along strike and depth. A further 5,000-6,000m campaign is planned to commence Q2 2015, with a new geological resource planned for Q3 2015. March 2015 13

Production Profile Palito is now in commercial production (250tpd) with mining activity in 8 areas. Sao Chico is under development, with the first development level ongoing and some spectacular grades being developed. Mining method for both properties is by well established, underground selective mining. Ore zones are developed by on-lode development, using mechanized drilling jumbos, which is then followed by highly selective open (shrinkage) stoping using pneumatic equipment. With Palito in regime and in its second year of production, the Company forecasts Palito Gold production of 24,000 ounces for this year. In addition, considering surface stockpiles containing ~5000 ounces, plus high grade development ore from Sao Chico, the Company anticipates 2015 annual gold production to approximate 35,000 ounces. Projected AISC for 2015 of US$900 to US$950 per ounce. 2016 estimate Palito to produce ~90,000 tonnes at 8-9g/t for 24,000 ounces Sao Chico to produce ~35,000 tonnes at 15g/t for 20,000 ounces March 2015 14

Growth Opportunities Organic Growth With Palito mine production only utilizing about 50% plant capacity, Sao Chico high grade feed will bring obvious strong economic benefits, not to mention environmental and logistical advantages. Serabi see the Tapajos and Para state as a great opportunity, the combination of Palito and Sao Chico has a terrific package of exploration ground with many exciting targets already identified at both sites, more specifically: At Palito three mine site discoveries within 3km of the plant, are all ready for infill and step-out drilling. At Sao Chico, the resource is totally open in all directions, and the exceptional grade make it a high priority for future exploration campaigns With resource growth success any future modular plant expansion is straightforward M & A The immature nature of the Tapajos means less competition and we have few peers in the region. Serabi, as the only producer is therefore strongly placed to use this advantage. We continue to explore possibilities to combine and acquire assets both private and public that could offer operational and/or commercial synergies with Serabi. Serabi continue to look elsewhere in Brazil as we look to build on current production to become a robust, high margin gold producer in Brazil. March 2015 15

Summary Serabi intends to be the premier low cost junior gold producer in Brazil through the mining of high grade, low capex gold deposits. Milestones achieved : Completion of Palito restart on time and within budget. Commercial Production at Palito declared effective 1 July 2014. Development of Sao Chico now underway, with very exciting orebody intersections currently in development. Future Plans : Continue development of Sao Chico through 1H/2015 will quickly add high grade (~12g/t) development ounces, ramping up total gold production during the rest of the year. use positive cash flow to increase Palito resources from the mine-site discoveries already made, as well as the obvious extensions of high grade ore potential at Sao Chico. continue to review the M+A opportunities in the region.
