Forward Looking Information This presentation contains certain forward-looking information and statements as defined in applicable securities law (referred to herein as
“forward-looking statements”). Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to full year 2015
estimated all-in sustaining costs and total cash costs, strategic focus, 2016 guidance (gold production, total cash costs, all-in sustaining
costs, capital expenditures and exploration), new life of mine plan and economic analysis of the Detour Lake operation including, but not
limited to, the mine plan, processing and production rates, grades, metallurgical recovery rates, operating and capital costs, the projected
mine life, the net present value, opportunities to optimize the mine operation, the success and continuation of exploration activities, the
future price of gold, reclamation obligations, permitting schedule, government regulations and environmental risks.
Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual results,
performance or achievements to be materially different from any of its future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by
forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to, assumptions and parameters
underlying the life of mine plan not being realized, a decrease in the future gold price, discrepancies between actual and estimated
production, changes in costs (including labour, supplies, fuel and equipment), changes to tax rates; environmental compliance and
changes in environmental legislation and regulation, exchange rate fluctuations, general economic conditions and other risks involved in
the gold exploration and development industry, as well as those risk factors discussed in the related Technical Report and section entitled
“Description of Business - Risk Factors” in Detour Gold’s 2014 AIF and in the continuous disclosure documents filed by Detour Gold on and
available on SEDAR.
Such forward-looking statements are also based on a number of assumptions which may prove to be incorrect, including, but not limited to,
assumptions about the following: the availability of financing for exploration and development activities; operating and sustaining capital
costs; the Company’s ability to attract and retain skilled staff; sensitivity to metal prices and other sensitivities; the supply and demand for,
and the level and volatility of the price of, gold; the supply and availability of consumables and services; the exchange rates of the
Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar; energy and fuel costs; the accuracy of reserve and resource estimates and the assumptions on which
the reserve and resource estimates are based; market competition; ongoing relations with employees and impacted communities and
general business and economic conditions. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The
forward-looking statements contained herein are made as of the date hereof, or such other date or dates specified in such statements.

Year-end 2015 Reserves & Resources Notes:
1. Mineral resources and reserves were
completed by Detour Gold in conformity
with generally accepted definitions and
guidelines given in the Canadian Institute
of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM)
Standards on Mineral Resources and
Mineral Reserves as required by NI 43-
101.
2. Mineral reserves were estimated using a
gold price of $1,000/oz and mineral
resources were estimated using a gold
price of $1,200/oz at a US$/C$ exchange
rate of 1.10.
3. Mineral reserves and resources were
based on a cut-off grade of 0.50 g/t Au.
4. Mineral reserves included an average
mining dilution of 5.3% from 2016 to 2018
and 4% for 2018+, at a diluting grade of
0.20g/t Au. Mining ore loss of 5% also
included.
5. Only Probable LG Fines scheduled in the
mine plan were reported as mineral
reserves. The LG fines reserves were
based on a cut-off grade of 0.40 g/t Au.
6. Mineral resources are reported exclusive
of mineral reserves. Mineral resources
that are not mineral reserves do not have
demonstrated economic viability.
7. Totals may not add due to rounding.

End Notes Qualified Persons The scientific and technical content of this presentation was reviewed, verified and approved by Drew Anwyll, P.Eng., Senior Vice President
Technical Services, a Qualified Person as defined by Canadian Securities Administrators National Instrument 43-101 “Standards of
Disclosure for Mineral Projects”.
Non-IFRS Financial Performance Measures Detour Gold has included non-IFRS measures in this presentation. The Company believes that these measures, in addition to conventional
measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, provide investors an improved ability to evaluate the underlying performance of the
Company. The non-IFRS measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. These measures do not have any standardized meaning
prescribed under IFRS, and therefore may not be comparable to other issuers. Other companies may calculate these measures differently
as a result of differences in underlying principles and policies applied.
All-in sustaining costs The Company believes this measure more fully defines the total costs associated with producing gold. The
Company calculates all-in sustaining costs as the sum of total cash costs (as described below), share-based compensation, corporate
general and administrative expense, exploration and evaluation expenses that are sustaining in nature, reclamation cost accretion (also
known as unwinding of the discount on decommissioning and restoration provisions), sustaining capital including deferred stripping, and
realized gains and losses on hedges due to operating and capital costs, all divided by the total gold ounces sold to arrive at a per ounce
figure.
Total cash costs are reported on a sales basis. Total cash costs include production costs such as mining, processing, refining and site
administration, agreements with Aboriginal communities, less non-cash share-based compensation and net of silver sales divided by gold
ounces sold to arrive at total cash costs per gold ounce sold. The measure also includes other mine related costs incurred such as mine
standby costs and current inventory write downs. Production costs are exclusive of depreciation and depletion. Production costs include the
costs associated with providing the royalty in kind ounces.
Total site costs per ounce are reported on a produced basis in this presentation. Total site costs include production and operating costs
such as mining, processing, site general and administration, bullion shipment, refining, agreements with Aboriginal communities, capital
costs (excluding closure costs) and net of silver sales. These are exclusive of depreciation and depletion.
The Company calculates total site costs per ounce as the sum of total site costs (as described above) divided by the total gold ounces
produced. Gold ounces produced is noted before delivering the royalty in kind ounces.

End Notes Information Containing Estimates of Mineral Reserves and Resources
The mineral reserve and resource estimates reported in this presentation were prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument
43-101Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”), as required by Canadian securities regulatory authorities. For United
States reporting purposes, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applies different standards in order to classify
mineralization as a reserve. In particular, while the terms “measured,” “indicated” and “inferred” mineral resources are required pursuant to
NI 43-101, the SEC does not recognize such terms. Canadian standards differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC. Investors
are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories constitute or will ever be converted into
reserves. In addition, “inferred” mineral resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their
economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher
category. Under Canadian securities laws, issuers must not make any disclosure of results of an economic analysis that includes inferred
mineral resources, except in rare cases.
Technical Report On January 25, 2016, Detour Gold announced an updated life of mine plan for the Detour Lake operation and filed a NI 43-101 compliant
Technical Report on SEDAR. The Technical report was prepared by the following Qualified Persons from Detour Gold: Drew Anwyll,
P.Eng., Senior VP Technical Services (lead author); Andrew Croal, P.Eng., Director Technical Services; Ruben Wallin, P.Eng., Vice
President Environment and Sustainability; David Ritchie, M.Eng., P.Eng., Principal Geotechnical Engineer for AMEC Foster Wheeler
acting as TMA Engineer of Record; and Jacques McMullen, P.Eng. Corporate Technical Advisor.
