Key Drivers for 2018 High Grade Shallow Gold: Follow ‐ up drilling of high grade drilling results (with implied reef grades up to 55g/t identified) with diamond/RC drilling Maiden Open Cut Resources: Aim to delineate shallow, high grade resources amenable to open ‐ cut mining (most intercepts are 10 ‐ 30m deep with grades of 10 ‐ 20g/t common in flat ‐ lying reefs intercepted) Resource Growth: Resource increase in 2016 (2.9Moz), in 2017 Stonewall added an additional 700koz to increase the resource base to 3.7Moz. Targeting further increases at similar rate in 2018 Maiden Reserves: Sampling program at Rietfontein to be followed by diamond drilling with the aim of declaring reserves as part of the PFS work underway Mine Plans: Plan to submit mine plans on both Rietfontein and Project Bentley Open Cut in 2018, with a view to development and production in 2019 Low Capital Development: Delineate and articulate a low ‐ capital, early ‐ start up option based on near ‐ surface oxide feed to the CIL plant. Targeting plant refurbishment to treat oxide material. 3

The potential exploration target ranges are conceptual in nature and there is insufficient exploration data to estimate a Mineral Resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource. Exploration for resources will be conducted in accordance with JORC Code (2012).

Rand strengthened by 10% against major currencies since the election in December 2017 South Africa is a low cost mining destination compared to most developed countries Whilst considered high cost due to the proliferation of very deep mines at modest grades, all projects Stonewall is pursuing are shallow underground (adit entry not shaft) or open ‐ cut opportunities TGME was incorporated in 1895 and remains the oldest gold company in South Africa Figure Source: Approximate gold production by country, 1848 to 2010 (Mudd et al, Gold Peak Minerals 11 Case Study, Oct 2012)
