About Mariana ResourcesMariana Resources Ltd is a TSX.V
and AIM (MARL) quoted exploration and development company with an
extensive portfolio of gold, silver, and copper projects in South
America, Turkey, and Ivory Coast.
Mariana's most advanced asset is the Hot Maden
gold-copper project in northeast Turkey, which is a joint venture
with Turkish partner Lidya Madencilik (30% Mariana and 70%
Lidya) and which is rapidly advancing to development. On
January 17, 2017, Mariana released the results of a Preliminary
Economic Study ("PEA") which demonstrated exceptional potential
economics for the Hot Maden Project (after-tax NPV and IRR of USD
1.37B and 153%, respectively) based on a development scenario
incorporating a 1Mtpa underground mining / processing operation and
the production of two saleable concentrates (a copper-gold
concentrate and a gold-pyrite concentrate). This PEA was based on
the updated (July 25, 2016) mineral resource estimate of 3.43 Moz
gold equivalent (Indicated Category) and 0.09 Moz gold equivalent
(Inferred Category) (100% basis) in the Main Zone, as well as a
maiden 351,000 Moz gold equivalent (Inferred Category) (100% basis)
resource in the New Southern Discovery. Elsewhere in Turkey,
Mariana holds a 100% interest in the Ergama gold-copper project.
On October 7, 2016, Mariana announced the
signing of a binding Term Sheet to acquire an indirect 80% interest
in Ivory Coast-focused private exploration company Awalé Resources
SARL ("Awalé"). Through the transaction Mariana will gain an
immediate foothold in an established exploration portfolio with
known gold mineralisation and artisanal gold workings, and which
comprises i) 3 granted contiguous licenses (1,191 km2) in the
Bondoukou area, and ii) 4 licenses under application (1,593 km2) in
both the Bondoukou and Abengourou areas. The Boundoukou concessions
lie along the southwestern extension of the Birimian Bole-Nangodi
greenstone belt in adjacent Ghana, host to a number of high grade
orogenic gold deposits.
In southern Argentina, the Company's core
gold-silver projects are Las Calandrias (100%), Sierra Blanca
(100%), Los Cisnes (100%), and Bozal (100%). These projects are
part of a 100,000+ Ha land package in the Deseado Massif epithermal
gold-silver district in mining-friendly Santa Cruz Province.
In Suriname, Mariana has a direct holding of
10.2% of the Nassau Gold project. The Nassau Gold Project is a
28,000 Ha exploration concession located approximately 125 km south
east of the capital Paramaribo and immediately adjacent to Newmont
Mining's 4.2Moz gold Merian project.
In Peru and Chile, Mariana is focusing on
acquiring new opportunities which complement its current
portfolio.

*Au Equivalence (AuEq) calculated using a 100
day moving average of $US1,215/ounce for Au and $US2.13/pound for
Cu as of May 29, 2016. No adjustment has been made for
metallurgical recovery or net smelter return as these remain
uncertain at this time. Based on grades and contained metal for Au
and Cu, it is assumed that both commodities have reasonable
potential to be economically extractable.
- *-The formula used for Au equivalent grade is: AuEq g/t = Au +
[(Cu % x 22.0462 x 2.13)/(1215/31.1035)] and assumes 100 %
metallurgical recovery.
- **-Au equivalent ounces are calculated by mulitplying Mineral
Resource tonnage by Au equivalent grade and converting for ounces.
The formula used for Au equivalent ounces is: AuEq Oz = [Tonnage x
AuEq grade (g/t)]/31.1035
