1) Derived from the NI 43-101 Technical Report Prefeasibility Study Update, Segovia Project, Colombia, dated May 14, 2020, prepared by SRK Consulting (US) Inc. (“SRK”).
2) Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. 3) All figures are rounded to reflect relative accuracy of the estimate. All composites have been capped where appropriate.4) The Mineral Resources are reported at an in situ cut-off grade of 3.0 g/t Au over a 1.0 m mining width, which has been derived using a gold price of US$1,400
per ounce and technical and economic parameters for the existing underground mining and conventional gold mineralized material processing using a gold recovery of 90.5%. Each of the mining areas have been sub-divided into Pillar areas (“Pillars”), which represent the areas within the current mining development, and long-term resources (“LTR”), which lie along strike or down dip of the current mining development.

2) Mineral resources are inclusive of mineral reserves.
3) All figures are rounded to reflect relative accuracy of the estimate. All composites have been capped where appropriate
4) Ore reserves are reported using a gold cutoff grade ranging from 3.25 to 4.24 g/t depending on mining area and mining method. The cutoff gradecalculations assume a $1,350/oz Au price, 90.5% metallurgical recovery, $6/oz smelting and refining charges, $25/t G&A, $26/t processing cost, andprojected LoM mining costs ranging from $76/t to 115/t. Mining dilution is applied to a minimum mining height and estimated overbreak (values differby area/mining method) using a zero grade. Mineral Reserves have been stated on the basis of a mine design, mine plan, and cash-flow model.There are potential survey unknowns in some of the mining areas and lower extractions have been used to account for these unknowns.

Caldas Gold Corp (TSX-V: CGC, OTCQX: ALLXF) was formed in a spin out by Gran Colombia Gold (TSX: GCM) in February 2020; GCM holds a 57.5% equity interest.
Caldas Gold is focused on a major underground mine expansion at Marmato to incorporate the Deep Zone mineralization.
The existing mine has been in operation since 1991 and has produced an average of ~24,000 ozs of gold annually over the last 10 years (2019 – 25,750 ozs).
Exploration drilling is continuing to upgrade and expand the Deep Zone mineralization.
US110M stream financing with Wheaton Precious Metals to fund mine expansion.(1)
Proposed US$150M Gold-Linked Notes Offering(1)
and CA$45M bought deal equity offering(2).

Life-of-Mine Plan (“PFS”) Results (B)
Marmato Project
o Marmato mine in Zona Baja will comprise of two distinct operations: Upper Zone and Deep Zone.
o Upper Zone: Immediate optimization of existing mining operation to reduce dilution, improving production and reducingcash costs, together with an expansion of the existing processing plant over the next two years from 1,200 tpd to 1,500tpd. A total pf 5.1M tonnes to be processed over 13-year life with average LoM Au grade of 4.2 g/t resulting in 0.6M ouncesof gold (32% of total).
o Deep Zone: US$269M initial capital in 2020 to 2023. Total of 14.6M tonnes processed over a 11-year life starting in mid-2023 at an average LoM Au grade of 2.9 g/t resulting in 1.3M ounces of gold (68% of total).
o Combined:o 1.9M ounces of gold with LoM cash cost of US$772 per ounce and LoM AISC of US$872/oz.o At US$1,400 per ounce long-term gold price, total undiscounted LoM after-tax project cash flow of US$501M (NPV
5% - US$263M).o Before financing, after-tax IRR = 20% and payback by 2026.

Why Invest in Gran Colombia Gold
o Solid operating team with demonstrated experience operating and building mines in Colombia.
o Re-rating potential for common shares and warrants in the current gold price environment.
o Strong Free Cash Flow yield driven by high-grade Segovia gold operations.
o Continuing to build strength in the Company’s balance sheet.
o Exploration upside places emphasis on the high-grade Segovia mines and the other 24 known veins we are not currently mining. Accelerating step-out and brownfield drilling to include regional exploration targets.
o Valuation upside through investments in Caldas Gold (Marmato expansion), Zancudo(IAMGOLD earning in), Gold X Mining (Toroparu) and Western Atlas (Nunavut, Venezuela).
