This advance, underscored by the change in name from African Mining & Exploration Plc to Savannah Resources Plc, has included the announcement of a maiden JORC resource (which was subsequently securitised into a strategic investment in Alecto Minerals Plc (“Alecto”), the recapitalisation of the Company with around £3 million of investment inflows, and an overhaul of the Company’s exploration portfolio which saw the acquisition of a heavy mineral sands project in a world class mineral sands province in Mozambique plus entering into an agreement to acquire two copper projects in Oman’s highly prospective Semail Ophiolite belt which is expected to be completed in May 2014. The Company’s current investment portfolio demonstrates a diversification of commodities, geographies and investment types and underlies the significant progress that has been made by the Company on its journey leading diversified multi-commodity to becoming a exploration and development company. This is especially pleasing considering the modest expenditure to achieve the progress and the reduced country and commodity risks that the Company now faces. Under the direction of the Board the recent transformation process has been ably led by the Company’s CEO David Archer. The Company’s former CEO, Mark Jones, was appointed as CEO of Alecto Minerals where he continues his valued stewardship of the Kossanto Gold Project. The transformation included renaming the Company from African Mining & Exploration Plc to Savannah Resources Plc to underscore the change in strategy. Jangamo Heavy mineral Sands – mozambique In October 2013 the Company acquired an 80% interest in the Jangamo Heavy Mineral Sands Project in a world class mineral sands province in Mozambique. This borders Rio Tinto’s Mutamba deposit, one of two major deposits Rio Tinto has defined in Mozambique, that collectively have an exploration target of 7-12Bt at 3-4.5% total heavy minerals (“THM”). A scout drilling programme, which commenced within one month of the acquisition, has confirmed that the style of mineralisation at Jangamo is similar to that reported by Rio Tinto. Copper projects in oman In April 2014 the Company announced it had entered into an agreement to acquire interests in the Block 5 (65%) and Block 6 (up to 70%) copper projects in Oman from Gentor Resources Limited. The acquisition is expected to be completed in May 2014. The projects in the Semail Ophiolite, the world’s largest and best preserved thrust sheet of oceanic crust and upper mantle, provide Savannah with an excellent opportunity to potentially evolve into a mid-tier copper producer in a relatively short time frame. Small to medium sized Cyprus-type Cu-Au volcanic massive sulphide deposits have been worked in the Semail Ophiolite since ancient times. Modern exploration has identified many small to medium sized high grade copper deposits within the belt which as yet have not been brought into production. Together with our Omani partners, Savannah will look for ways to aggregate and explore as many of these opportunities as possible with a view to providing the critical mass for constructing a central operating plant to realise the value of the deposits. 2 SaVannaH rESoUr CES plc — ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2013 Savannah-Resources-AR13 Proof 3.indd 2 23127-04 14 May 2014 3:38 PM Proof 3 14/05/2014 15:42:06 CHaIrman’ S StatEmEnt Mali Portfolio – JORC Resource and Divestment Following the acquisition of Caracal Gold Mali SARL (“Caracal”) in July 2012, the Company’s experienced team was able to fast track an exploration programme leading to the announcement of a maiden Mineral Resource of 107,000 Oz gold in June 2013. As part of the Company’s portfolio transformation this project was sold in October 2013 to Alecto for £1.25 million worth of shares in Alecto. In March 2014 the remainder of the Company’s exploration portfolio in Mali was sold to Alecto for £250,000 worth of shares in Alecto. Strategic Investment in alecto minerals plc As a result of the sale of the projects and a cash investment of £500,000 in Alecto, the Company owns an effective 20.9% strategic shareholding in Alecto. This provides Savannah with exposure to both the highly prospective Kossanto Gold Project in the prolific Kenieba inlier in Mali and also to the Wayu Boda and Aysid Meketel gold/base metal projects in Ethiopia for which Alecto has a joint venture with Centamin Plc. Under this joint venture, Centamin Plc is committing up to a total of US$14m in exploration funding to earn up to 70% of each project. The Company’s former CEO Mark Jones became CEO of Alecto when the sale of the Kossanto Project was concluded and I hold the position of Chairman of Alecto. Annual General Meeting At the forthcoming AGM the Shareholders will be asked to renew the usual equity securities issue authorities, which this year include a resolution in respect of a Share Exchange Agreement to acquire an 80% shareholding in Matilda Minerals Lda. This requires your Company to issue up to AUD 1,500,000 in shares as deferred consideration establishment of a Indicated Resource of 500Mt @ 3% THM at the Jangamo project. The financing agreement entered into with Bergen which the Company entered into to provide security of funding as it expands its exploration portfolio, whilst providing robust protections for existing shareholders based on stringent restrictions around short selling and trading volumes. I hope you will once again support the Board by putting these authorities in place. JORC Additionally, the Directors appointed since the last AGM, are required to be offered for re-election in line with the Company’s Articles of Association. I commend their re- election to you as an endorsement of the Company’s stewardship. financial Whilst the Company had a cash position of £1.76 million at 31 December 2012, the Board recognised the financing challenges for the junior exploration sector and took the pro-active decision, announced on 1 March 2013, to implement prudent cash preservation measures. Of the appointments to the Board in 2013, the Non-Executive Directors and the CEO were eligible for initial nominal salaries of £1 each while the recapitalisation of the Company was put in place. combined with; These prudent measures, the securitisation of the Company’s Mali exploration portfolio; cash placements of approximately £3 million; and a financing agreement with Bergen Global Opportunity Fund, LP (“Bergen”) offering up to $5.5 million cash in the next 11 months, have resulted in the Company being in a very strong financial position to undertake exploration of its current portfolio and potential new projects. The agreement with Bergen provides robust protections for existing shareholders based on stringent preventive restrictions around short-selling and trading volumes and was carefully crafted with Bergen to provide flexibility in various market scenarios. In line with the prudent management concepts, the Company has built a solid base of assets with over £4 million in cash and equity securities at the reporting date. At 6 May 2014 the Company’s cash balance was £2.14 million and it held equity securities in Alecto worth £1.72 million.

To this end, the board has formulated a Health, Safety, Environment and Community Relations policy that focuses on the positive interaction with all stakeholders. This policy has been adopted and already forms the basis for effective community relations in our permit areas. Board Changes In July and September 2013 David Archer began the process of recapitalising the Company with a cash investment of £500,000 for ordinary shares in the Company and his appointment to CEO was confirmed in August 2013. David brings a wealth of experience in the junior and mid-tier resources industry and has successfully led both Savage Resources and Hillgrove Resources from microcap companies to companies valued at approximately $400M AUD and $200M AUD respectively at the time of leaving. Dale Ferguson joined the Board as Technical Director in October 2013 and is an outstanding geologist with extensive commercial experience. He has been integral to building the Company’s evolving exploration portfolio and will be instrumental in continuing the growth of the Company. Mark Jones retired as a Director and CEO of the Company in 2013 and I would like to thank him for his hard work in establishing your company from its formation. Recognition is particularly deserved for his foresight in the acquisition of the Kossanto Gold Project that he now leads in his role of CEO of Alecto. outlook Following the change in strategic direction announced in July 2013 the Company has successfully delivered on its stated goals. Furthermore it has received significant interest and support from the investment community which has resulted in the Company having a strong current financial position. exploration the We continue to build your Company into a leading diversified multi-commodity and strengths of development entity, utilising experienced professionals and partners to deliver significant investment return with managed risk and considering: the Company’s recent transformation; its strategic investment in Alecto which offers exposure without any funding requirements or management time to a very attractive portfolio of gold exploration projects in sub-Saharan Africa; the Company’s own highly prospective exploration portfolio; the leadership provided by David Archer; and the healthy financial and funding position. In combination these provide a firm foundation for your Company to move forward positively in 2014. The Company’s own exploration projects in Mozambique and Oman provide a solid foundation in their own right and also facilitate the possibility to add further attractively-priced prospective projects via strategic acquisitions or joint venture arrangements. Finally, we have a small team of dedicated staff and on behalf of the Company I would like to thank them for their significant efforts during the year and I look forward to the coming year, which I hope will be exciting and rewarding for the Company and all its shareholders. mike Johnson Chairman Date: 8 May 2014 4 SaVannaH rESoUr CES plc — ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2013 Savannah-Resources-AR13 Proof 3.indd 4 23127-04 14 May 2014 3:38 PM Proof 3 14/05/2014 15:42:07 CHIEf ExECUtIVE ’S rEport I am delighted to report on the significant progress made by your Company during the past year, in my inaugural statement as CEO of Savannah Resources. This has been an extremely active year, which has seen us cement our position as a diversified, multi commodity, exploration and development company. During the period under review we have established a solid portfolio of assets from which I believe we can deliver considerable value during the coming year and beyond through defined exploration and development programmes. This includes defining a potential maiden resource at our 80% owned Jangamo Heavy Minerals Sands Project in Mozambique, which is located in a world class mineral province. In addition, we are also focussed on securing a major position in the Oman copper belt following our recently agreed (April 2014) right to acquire two highly prospective copper blocks in north-east Oman. Savannah also holds an effective 20.9% strategic shareholding in AIM quoted Alecto Minerals Plc (ALO), which provides us with exposure to both the highly prospective Kossanto Gold Project in the prolific Kenieba inlier in Mali and also to the Wayu Boda and Aysid Meketel gold/base metal projects in Ethiopia for which Alecto has a joint venture with Centamin Plc. Under this joint venture, Centamin Plc is committing up to US$14m in exploration funding to earn up to 70% of each project. Jangamo Heavy mineral Sands project, mozambique In October 2013 Savannah acquired an 80% shareholding in Matilda Minerals Limitada (‘Matilda’), a privately owned Mozambican heavy mineral sands explorer. Matilda holds the highly prospective Jangamo tenement (‘Jangamo’ or ‘the Project’), which is located in a world class mineral sands province in Southern Mozambique prospective for ilmenite, zircon and rutile. Jangamo covers an area of 180km2 along an extensive dune system near the village of Jangamo, about 350km to the east-northeast of the capital Maputo, with excellent infrastructure in place to support potential operations, including grid power, access to the main EN1 highway and close proximity to the port of Inhambane. Jangamo lies immediately to the west of Rio Tinto’s (‘Rio’) Mutamba deposit, one of two major deposits Rio has defined in Mozambique, which collectively have an exploration target of 7-12 billion tonnes at 3-4.5% total heavy minerals (‘THM’). Significantly, our recent exploration work conducted at the Project suggests that the geology and geomorphology of Jangamo is similar to that of Rio’s adjacent Mutamba deposit, giving an indication of the Project’s potential value. In addition, the Project is covered by a series of north-east trending Quaternary dunal and fluvial deposits, many of which have been proven to host total heavy minerals (‘THM’), and scout sampling in the region by the Company has returned up to 18.1% THM with ilmenite, zircon and rutile recorded in the mineral concentrate. To unlock the economic potential of Jangamo, Savannah has implemented an aggressive exploration programme. In October 2013, shortly after formally acquiring the Project, the Company commenced a 27 hole, 1,812m reverse circulation (‘RC’) drilling programme to further define Jangamo’s prospectivity and test key dunal systems. The results, which were further analysed in March 2014, were extremely encouraging, confirming broad mineralised zones up to 39 metres deep with up to 5% THM recorded. As part of this, three mineralised dunal systems were found to host strong THM grades in three strand lines: the eastern finger with 18m at 3.5% THM; the eastern line of 6km in length with intersections such as 24m at 3.2% THM; and the western line of 10kms in length with intersections such as 10m at 2.2% and 39m at 2.0% THM. Additionally, a new mineralised dune system was also discovered in the north of 10km in length in the western part of the Project, which significantly expands the exploration potential. Importantly these results are consistent with the grades published for Rio’s adjacent Mutamba deposit. In addition, there are examples of mineralisation starting from surface which appear to contain low levels of deleterious elements such as chromium, uranium and thorium contaminants, positively impacting the economics of the Project, as any potential mining operation would have a very low strip ratio. Given the early stage of the exploration programme and the large distances between the scout drill holes, in many cases over 5km, this drill programme marked a major validating first-step in identifying a major heavy minerals system. The Company is now focussed on more precisely defining the strike and lateral extents of the heavy mineral sequences, and in line with this commenced a fast paced, SaVannaH rESoUr CES plc — ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2013 5 Savannah-Resources-AR13 Proof 3.indd 5 23127-04 14 May 2014 3:38 PM Proof 3 14/05/2014 15:42:07 AGM InformationBusiness ReviewGovernanceFinancial Statements CHIEf ExECUtIVE ’S rEport results oriented 2014 field exploration programme in early April 2014. This will target more precisely defining and characterising the mineralised dune systems. The first step in this 2014 exploration programme involved a two week ground magnetic survey. The results of this, which were announced in late April 2014, demonstrated that it is should be possible to detect the geophysical signature of the heavy mineral deposits using an airborne platform. A heliborne magnetic and radiometric survey is now planned to commence in the first half of May 2014 to define the extent of the mineralised system and any re-worked strand lines, which are likely to carry higher grades. The results from these two geophysical programmes will enable the Company to identify the target zones for a second round of scout drilling scheduled to commence in the second half of May 2014, which will in turn enable the Company to define a potential maiden JORC compliant Mineral Resource and commence a scoping study in the second half of 2014. In line with these developments, in March 2014 the Company commissioned globally leading heavy minerals consultancy, TZ Minerals International Pty Limited, to scope out and characterise the potential of Jangamo and outline a path for evaluation through to a scoping study. In addition, in May 2014 the Company appointed a Mozambique Exploration Manager and Mozambique Exploration Professional to ensure a rigorous and effective exploration approach. With a strengthened regional exploration team in place, a highly prospective resource and defined development plan in place, Jangamo is at a very exciting stage of evaluation. Blocks 5 and 6 Copper project, oman On 10 April 2014 the Company made a transformational prime mover initiative into mineral rich Oman following an agreement to acquire interests in the highly prospective Block 5 and Block 6 copper projects (the ‘Blocks’) in the Sultanate of Oman (‘Oman’) from TSX-V listed Gentor Resources Inc. (TSX-V: GNT). The acquisition, which gives the Company the right to acquire a 65% interest in Block 5 and up to 70% in Block 6 is expected to be completed in May 2014. The Blocks cover 870km² of the highly prospective copper-rich Seminail Ophiolite belt in Oman, 180km west of Muscat, the capital city of Oman, and respectively 40km and 60km south of major export port of Sohar. The Ophiolite belt is characterised by medium to high grade copper deposits with gold credits and metallurgically simple ores that have been shown to be amenable to profitable, open-cut development, to produce high quality copper concentrates for local or overseas smelters. Despite the region’s rich history of copper production there has however been limited modern exploration in Oman; the Company and its Omani partners aim to capitalise on this by applying rigorous, modern exploration techniques. With excellent infrastructure (proximity to a major deep sea port, bitumen roads across both Blocks and adjacent power lines), low fuel and labour costs and a favourable fiscal and tax regime, the Company is of the opinion that mining profitability in Oman will be significantly enhanced by this very favourable development setting. The Company believes that with the application of systematic exploration and evaluations the opportunity exists in Oman to build a significant mid-tier copper producer. The Blocks have a current Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource of 1.7Mt at 2.2% copper (‘Cu’), including a high-grade zone of ~0.5Mt at 4.5% Cu. Importantly, the Company has identified a significant opportunity to increase this resource through the evaluation of multiple high priority targets, identified at various stages of exploration from preliminary evaluation up to advanced exploration. This includes the Mahab 4 prospect, where high grade intersections of 56.35m at 6.21% Cu from 63.15m have been reported. In addition, Maqail South (6.68m at 7.42% copper), Hara Kilab (5.54m at 3.96% copper) and Mahab 2 (5m at 2.81% copper) have been targeted for future exploration. In line with this, the Company intends to initiate a fast paced exploration programme in May 2014 with a view to commencing drilling in H2 2014. 6 SaVannaH rESoUr CES plc — ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2013 Savannah-Resources-AR13 Proof 3.indd 6 23127-04 14 May 2014 3:38 PM Proof 3 14/05/2014 15:42:07 CHIEf ExECUtIVE ’S rEport The acquisition of the two highly prospective blocks is a major milestone in cementing the Company’s position as a multi-commodity exploration and development company and will represent the first step in establishing the Company as a potential mid-tier copper producer. With an established medium to high grade copper identified, the resource and multiple target areas Company has exposure to one of the best Ophiolite belts in the world and is well set to commence a targeted, fast paced exploration programme to realise value for Shareholders. Investment Portfolio During the period since our last Annual Report we have significantly restructured our asset portfolio. In addition to acquiring interests in the aforementioned projects in Mozambique and Oman, we completed the strategic sale of a portfolio of gold projects in Mali to AIM quoted Alecto Mineral Plc (ALO) (‘Alecto’) in October 2013 and March 2014. Following these acquisitions, the Company owns an effective 20.9% strategic shareholding in Alecto, which provides the Company with exposure to the Alecto’s prospective assets whilst eliminating the associated In Mali, Alecto exploration funding requirements. operates the Kossanto Gold Project, located in the prolific Kenieba inlier, which has a current Inferred Resource of 193,000 oz Au with a cut-off grade of 0.5g/t Au. The company holds the Wayu Boda and Aysid Meketel gold/base metal projects in Ethiopia for which Alecto has a joint venture with Centamin Plc. Under this joint venture, Centamin Plc is committing up to US$14 million in exploration funding to earn up to 70% of each project. Finally, in Mauritania, Alecto operates three gold and base metal licences located in Chegar (756km2), Wad Armour (613km2) and Zreibya (459km2), providing exposure to a highly prospective and emerging mineral district targeting Iron Oxide Copper Gold (IOCG) style mineralisation. outlook This has been a very active period for Savannah, which has seen us finalise two major acquisitions to affirm our position as a multi commodity, exploration and development company. To reflect these changes and its evolution, the Company changed its name to Savannah Resources Plc and I am confident that we now have a solid foundation to support strong growth. At Jangamo, we are focussed on delineating a potential maiden resource and commencing a scoping study in the second half of 2014 to underscore the potential of the Project. In addition, we look forward to completing the acquisition of two copper blocks in Oman, which have a current Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource of 1.7Mt at 2.2% Cu. With a number of high priority targets identified, the Company intends to commence an exploration programme in May 2014. The Company is confident that its initiative in Oman will provide a unique opportunity to secure a major opportunity in a world-class copper belt, and help transition the Company into a mid-tier copper producer. The Company will continue to follow Alecto’s development with interest and also maintains an active growth strategy aimed at expanding the Company’s geographic and commodity reach; the Company will consider any asset which it believes represents a compelling investment opportunity and complements its existing portfolio. With defined exploration programmes planned across its prospective portfolio of assets, the Company is on track to maintain a fast-paced evaluation campaign and has the foundations in place for solid growth in for the year ahead.

Set out below are the applicable reporting requirements under the Act for the purposes of the Strategic Report, together with guidance to other applicable sections of the 2013 Annual Report, which are incorporated by reference into the Company’s Strategic Report. Principal Activities The principal activity of the Group in the year under review was exploration for gold in the Republic of Mali, and exploration for heavy mineral sands in Mozambique. fair review of the Business The loss of the Group as set out on page 17 is a fair reflection of the Group’s performance. The Group made a loss of £2,041,743 (2012: £941,421), of which £905,576 (2012: £897,085) was related to administrative costs. Additionally the Company invested £824,638 (2012: £943,879) on mineral exploration and evaluation on the licences it holds (including the acquisition of 80% of Matilda Minerals Lda); this is capitalised as an intangible asset as set out in Note 11 in the Financial Statements. The loss for the year included the revaluation of £1,430,435 (2012: £nil) in the Company’s investment in Alecto detailed in Note 13. It also included an impairment charge of £1,362,402 (2012: £nil) detailed in Note 11. A review of the Group’s prospects are included in the Chairman’s Statement on pages 2 to 4 and the Chief Executive’s Report on pages 5 to 7. future Development This information is contained in the Chairman’s Statement on pages 2 to 4 and the Chief Executive’s Report on pages 5 to 7 under the heading “outlook”. Principal Risks and Uncertainties The Board has identified various risk factors which taken individually or together may have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s business. The principal risks and how they are managed are as follows: General Exploration Risk Mineral exploration is a high risk undertaking and there can be no guarantee that exploration will in the discovery of an economically viable result carefully ore body. Exploration selected by experienced experts regions of proven prospective geology. A methodical, staged approach is taken to the work and different technologies, as well as extensive fieldwork, are used prior to drilling. tenements are in Attraction and Retention of Key People The success of the Company is dependent on the expertise and experience of the Directors and senior management and the loss of one or more could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Board has put in place a remuneration policy which includes a share option scheme in order to motivate and retain key employees. Future Funding Requirements The Company has an ongoing requirement to fund its exploration activities and may need to obtain finance from the equity markets in the future. Senior Management and the Board closely monitor the cashflows of the Group. Cashflow projections are presented regularly to the Board for review and this assists in ensuring expenditure is focussed on areas of greatest exploration potential. Overheads and administration costs are carefully managed. Exploration Licence Titles The licences will be subject to applications for renewal and any renewal is usually at the discretion of the relevant government authority. The licences in the Company’s portfolio have been the subject of legal due diligence in order to establish valid legal title. 8 SaVannaH rESoUr CES plc — ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2013 Savannah-Resources-AR13 Proof 3.indd 8 23127-04 14 May 2014 3:38 PM Proof 3 14/05/2014 15:42:07 StratEGIC rEport Country Risk At the reporting date, the Company carried out exploration in Mozambique and the Republic of Mali. The legacy Malian projects were sold in March 2014. As a result, the Company is exposed to a single country of operation risk. This risk is mitigated by the expectation of operating an exploration portfolio in Oman from May 2014 (see events after the reporting date) and also by the investment it holds in Alecto which has exploration licences in Ethiopia, Mali and Mauritania. This risk is mitigated by ensuring the Company meets its work and expenditure obligations, that it prioritises local in-country employment and that it maintains good relationships at all levels with government, administrative bodies and other stakeholders. The Board actively monitors relevant political and regulatory developments. analysis of the Development and performance of the Business This information is contained in pages 2 to 4 of the Chairman’s Statement, pages 5 to 7 of the Chief Executive’s Report.

Although the Company does not comply with the Code, it has given consideration to the provisions set out in Section 1 of the Code annexed to the Financial Conduct Authority Listing Rules. The Directors support the objectives of the Code and intend to comply with those aspects that they consider relevant to the Group’s size and circumstances. Details of these are set out below. the Board of Directors The Board currently comprises two Executive and two Non-Executive Directors. The Board formally meets approximately every month and is responsible for setting and monitoring Group strategy, reviewing budgets and financial performance, ensuring adequate funding, examining major acquisition opportunities, formulating policy on key issues and reporting to the Shareholders. Internal financial Control The Board is responsible for establishing and maintaining the Group’s system of internal financial controls. Internal financial control systems are designed to meet the particular needs of the Group and the risk to which it is exposed, and by its very nature can provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss. The Directors are conscious of the need to keep effective internal financial control. Due to the relatively small size of the Group’s operations, the Directors are very closely involved in the day-to-day running of the business and as such have less need for a detailed formal system of internal financial control. The Directors have reviewed the effectiveness of the procedures presently in place and consider that they are appropriate to the nature and scale of the operations of the Group. The Directors have implemented necessary controls and procedures to comply with the UK Bribery Act 2010. The Audit Committee An Audit Committee has been established which comprises two Non-Executive Directors – Charlie Cannon-Brookes (who chairs the Committee) and Mike Johnson. The Committee is responsible for ensuring that the financial performance of the Group is properly reported on and monitored, and for meeting the Auditor and reviewing the reports from the Auditor relating to accounts and internal controls. The Committee also reviews the Group’s annual and interim Financial Statements before submission to the Board for approval. The role of the Audit Committee is also to consider the appointment of the Auditor, audit fees, scope of audit work and any resultant findings. The Remuneration Committee The Remuneration Committee comprises two Non- Executive Directors – Charlie Cannon-Brookes (who chairs the Committee) and Mike Johnson. It is responsible for reviewing the performance of the Executive Directors and for setting the scale and structure of his remuneration, paying due regard to the interests of Shareholders as a whole and the performance of the Group. The remuneration of the Chairman and the Non-Executive Director is determined by the Board as a whole, based on a review of the current practices in other companies. The Chairman and Non-Executive Director are entitled to a nominal value of £1 per annum for their services. Anti-Bribery and Corruption It is the Company’s policy to conduct business in an honest way, and without the use of corrupt practices or acts of bribery to obtain an unfair advantage in line with the UK Bribery Act 2010. The Company takes a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption and is committed to acting professionally, fairly and with integrity in all its business dealings and relationships wherever it operates and implementing and enforcing effective systems to counter bribery.

The Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by the merger method of accounting on the historical cost basis except, as explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the consideration given in exchange for assets. The principal accounting policies are set out below. presentational and functional Currency The functional currency of the Company is Pound Sterling. Each entity in the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the Financial Statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. The presentational currency of the Group is Pound Sterling. Going Concern The Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Board consider that the Group has sufficient cash resources to enable it to continue with the planned exploration projects. Basis of Consolidation The Group accounts consolidate the accounts of Savannah Resources Plc and its domestic and foreign subsidiaries, as set out below. The foreign subsidiaries have been consolidated in accordance with IAS 27 and IAS 21 “The effects of Foreign Exchange Rates.” Inter-Company transactions and balances between Group companies are eliminated in full. Equity Investments Equity investments excluding subsidiaries are included on the balance sheet at fair value with value changes being recognised in other comprehensive income. Investments in equity instruments with no reliable fair value measurement are measured at cost. Investments in Subsidiaries and associates Investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are accounted for at cost within the individual accounts of the parent company. These investments are classified as non-current assets on the balance sheet of the parent company. Investments in subsidiaries, associates and jointly controlled entities are accounted for under the equity method of accounting within the consolidated accounts of the parent company whereby the investment is initially recognised at cost and adjusted thereafter for changes in the investor’s share of the investee’s net assets. The investor’s profit or loss includes its share of the investee’s profit or loss and the investor’s other comprehensive income includes its share of the investee’s other comprehensive income. foreign Currencies Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying spot exchange rate ruling at the date of transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the functional currency rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date. 24 SaVannaH rESoUr CES plc — ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2013 Savannah-Resources-AR13 Proof 3.indd 24 23127-04 14 May 2014 3:38 PM Proof 3 14/05/2014 15:42:10 notES to tHE ConSoLIDatED fInanCIaL StatEmEnt S 1. aCCoUntInG poLICIES continued Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using exchange rates as at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at the fair value in a foreign currency are translated using exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined. The income statements of individual Group companies with functional currencies other than Pound Sterling are translated into Pound Sterling at the average rate for the period and the balance sheet translated at the rate of exchange ruling on the reporting date. Exchange differences which arise from retranslation of the opening net assets and results of such subsidiary undertakings are taken to reserves. On disposal of such entities, the deferred cumulative amount recognised in equity relating to that particular operation is recognised in income statement. Intangible assets Deferred development costs Once a licence has been obtained, all costs associated with mineral property development and investments are capitalised on a project-by-project basis pending determination of the feasibility of the project. Costs incurred include appropriate technical and administrative expenses but not general overheads. If a mining property development project is successful, the related expenditures will be amortised over the estimated life of the commercial ore reserves on a unit of production basis. Where a licence is relinquished, a project is abandoned, or is considered to be of no further commercial value to the Savannah Resources Group, the related costs will be written off. Unevaluated mineral properties are assessed at reporting date for impairment in accordance with the policy set out below. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units) as disclosed in Note 11. If commercial reserves are developed, the related deferred development and exploration costs are then reclassified as development and production assets within property, plant and equipment. Mineral properties Mineral properties are recorded at cost less amortisation and provision for diminution in value. Amortisation will be over the estimated life of the commercial ore reserves on a unit of production basis. Acquisitions of Mineral Exploration Licences The acquisition of Matilda Minerals Lda was principally the acquisition of mining licences effected through a non-operating corporate structure. As the structure does not represent a business, it is considered that the transaction does not meet the definition of a business combination. Accordingly the transaction is accounted for as the acquisition of an asset. Future consideration is contingent and is not recognised as an asset or liability. Other intangible assets Other intangibles are recorded at cost less amortisation and provision for diminution in value. Amortisation is calculated to write off the cost of each asset over its estimated useful life of three years. property, plant and Equipment Tangible non-current assets used in exploration and evaluation are classified within tangible non-current assets as property, plant and equipment. To the extent that such tangible assets are consumed in exploration and evaluation the amount reflecting that consumption is recorded as part of the cost of the intangible asset.

Depreciation on assets not in production is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life. Plant & Machinery 4 – 10 years Office Equipment Motor Vehicles 4 years 4 years financial Instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the Group’s statement of financial position when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. financial assets Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to their acquisition or issue, and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less provision for impairment. Impairment provisions are recognised when there is objective evidence (such as significant financial difficulties on the part of the counterparty or default or significant delay in payment) that the Savannah Resources Group will be unable to collect all of the amounts due under the terms receivable, the amount of such a provision being the differences between the net carrying amount and the present value of the future expected cash flows associated with the impaired receivable. For receivables, which are reported net, such provisions are recorded in a separate allowance account with the loss being recognised within administrative expenses in the statement of comprehensive income. On confirmation that the receivable will not be collectable, the gross carrying value of the asset is written off against the associated provision. The Savannah Resources Group’s loan and receivables comprise other receivables and cash and cash equivalents in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash in hand and balances held with banks. Cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid accounts that are readily converted to known amounts of cash. There is no significant difference between carrying value and fair value of loans and receivables. Derivatives and embedded derivatives Derivatives are accounted for on the balance sheet at fair value with changes recognised in the income statement. Fair values are determined using the Black Scholes valuation methodology. Embedded derivatives are separated from their host contracts and accounted for as derivatives when they meet the definition of a derivative and the characteristics can be separated from those of the host contract. 26 SaVannaH rESoUr CES plc — ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2013 Savannah-Resources-AR13 Proof 3.indd 26 23127-04 14 May 2014 3:38 PM Proof 3 14/05/2014 15:42:10 notES to tHE ConSoLIDatED fInanCIaL StatEmEnt S 1. aCCoUntInG poLICIES continued financial Liabilities Other liabilities Other liabilities consist of trade and other payables, which are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest method. There is no significant difference between the carrying value and fair value of other liabilities. taxation Current taxes are based on the results shown in the Financial Statements and are calculated according to local tax rules, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the reporting date. A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which timing differences can be utilised. operating Leases Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to income on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease. Share-based payments Where equity settled share options are awarded to employees, the fair value of the options at the date of grant is charged to the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income over the vesting period. Non-market vesting conditions are taken into account by adjusting the number of equity instruments expected to vest at each reporting date so that, ultimately, the cumulative amount recognised over the vesting period is based on the number of options that eventually vest. Market vesting conditions are factored into the fair value of the options granted. As long as all other vesting conditions are satisfied, a charge is made irrespective of whether the market vesting conditions are satisfied. The cumulative expense is not adjusted for failure to achieve a market vesting condition. Where the terms and conditions of options are modified before they vest, the change in the fair value of the options, measured immediately before and after the modification, is also charged to the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income over the remaining vesting period. Where equity instruments are granted to persons other than employees for goods and services received, the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income is charged with the fair value of goods and services received. Key accounting Estimates and Judgements The preparation of financial information in conformity with IFRS requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of financial information and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of the amounts, event or actions, actual results ultimately may differ from those estimates. The key accounting estimates and judgements are set out below: SaVannaH rESoUr CES plc — ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2013 27 Savannah-Resources-AR13 Proof 3.indd 27 23127-04 14 May 2014 3:38 PM Proof 3 14/05/2014 15:42:10 AGM InformationFinancial StatementsBusiness ReviewGovernanceAGM InformationGovernanceBusiness ReviewFinancial Statements notES to tHE ConSoLIDatED fInanCIaL StatEmEnt S 1. aCCoUntInG poLICIES continued (a) Carrying value of mineral properties and development costs The Savannah Resources Group assesses at each reporting period whether there is any indication that these assets may be impaired. If such indication exists, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. In the early stages of exploration an indication of impairment may arise from drilling and assay results or from management’s decision to terminate the project. The recoverable amount is assessed by reference to the higher of ‘value in use’, where a project is still expected to be developed into production (being the new present value of expected future cash flows of the relevant cash generating unit) and ‘fair value less cost to sell’. Further details are set out in Note 11. (b) Exploration and evaluation costs The Savannah Resources Group has to apply judgement in determining whether exploration and evaluation expenditure should be capitalised within intangible assets as exploration and evaluation costs or expensed. The Savannah Resources Group has a policy of capitalising all exploration and evaluation costs (as set out above). Management therefore exercises judgement based on the results of economic evaluations, prefeasibility or feasibility studies in determining whether it is appropriate to continue to carry these costs as an intangible asset or whether they should be impaired. The total value of exploration and evaluation costs capitalised as at each of the reporting dates is set out in Note 11. (c) Share-based payments In determining the fair value of share-based payments made during the period, a number of assumptions have been made by management. The details of these assumptions are set out in Note 23. (d) Investment of Alecto Minerals plc The Directors have had to apply judgment in considering the accounting treatment of the Company’s investment in Alecto Minerals plc (‘Alecto’) with reference to its relationship with Alecto. Although during the year the Company held between 24.9% and 20.5% of Alecto’s shares, it is the Directors’ opinion that the investment in Alecto should be treated as an investment in the accounts of Savannah rather than as an associate on the basis that Savannah does not have the power to exert significant influence over Alecto. Key factors behind the opinion of the Directors include: Influence of other shareholders. • Proportion of shareholding. • • Board representation and influence over decision-making. • The presence of any special voting rights. • Transactions between the companies. Inter-change of managerial personnel. • accounting Developments During 2013 The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued various amendments and revisions to International Financial Reporting Standards and IFRIC interpretations. The amendments and revisions were applicable for the year ended 31 December 2013 but did not result in any material changes to the Financial Statements of the Group or Company. accounting Developments not yet adopted Various new standards and amendments have been issued by the IASB up to the date of this report which are not applicable until future periods and some have not yet been endorsed by the European Union. The Directors do not expect these will have a material impact on the Financial Statements of the Group or Company. 28 SaVannaH rESoUr CES plc — ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2013 Savannah-Resources-AR13 Proof 3.indd 28 23127-04 14 May 2014 3:38 PM Proof 3 14/05/2014 15:42:10 notES to tHE ConSoLIDatED fInanCIaL StatEmEnt S 2. SEGmEntaL rEportInG The Group complies with IFRS 8 Operating Segments, which requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker, which the Company considers to be the Board of Directors. In the opinion of the Directors, the operations of the Group comprise of exploration in Mali, exploration in Mozambique, headquarter activities and the Company’s investments in Alecto Minerals Plc (“Alecto”). Based on the Group’s current stage of development there are no revenues associated to the segments detailed below. For exploration in Mali and Mozambique the segments are calculated by the summation of the balances in the legal entities which are readily identifiable to each of the segmental activities. In the case of the Investment in Alecto, this is calculated by analysis of the specific related investment instruments. Intercompany loans are eliminated to zero and not included in each segment below.

Included within additions above is £1,250,000 in respect of 108,695,542 shares acquired in Alecto in respect of this divestment and a share subscription of 13,043,478 shares in Alecto for £150,000. The change in market value represents the fair value of shares held at the reporting date less the cost. The fair value of the shares being the market value of the Alecto shares at the reporting date of 31 December 2013. In September 2013 the Group entered into an agreement to acquire 80% of the share capital of Matilda Minerals Lda (“Matilda”), the owner of a mineral sands exploration project in a world class mineral sands province in Mozambique. In respect of the remaining 20% shareholding in Matilda Minerals Plc, this will be free carried at the Company’s cost until the point of decision to carry out a Definitive Feasibility Study. When this point is reached the 20% shareholder can either: (a) contribute in proportion to its shareholding at that time; (b) become diluted in accordance with a pre-determined methodology; or (c) sell its shareholding pro rata to the Project value. The investment in Matilda has been accounted for as an asset acquisition and is included in intangible assets in note 11. A new 100% subsidiary company, AME East Africa Limited was set up to be the immediate parent company of Matilda with an initial investment of £100 in the ordinary share capital.

Liquidity Risk The Group has sufficient funding in place to meet its operational commitments and is not exposed to any liquidity risk but in common with many exploration companies, the Company is likely to need to raise funds for its exploration activities and has an agreement in place with Bergen (see Note 24) to raise funds on a regular basis. The Group’s policy continues to be to ensure that it has adequate liquidity by careful management of its working capital. The Board receives rolling 18-month cash flow projections on a regular basis as well as information regarding cash balances. At the reporting date, these projections indicated that the Group expected to have sufficient liquid resources to meet its current obligations under all reasonably expected circumstances. Foreign Exchange Risk The Group is exposed through its operations to foreign exchange risk which arises because the Group has overseas operations located in Mali whose functional currency is CFA and Mozambique whose functional currency is MZN. The Group’s net assets arising from overseas operations are exposed to currency risk resulting in gains or losses on retranslation into Pound Sterling. Foreign exchange risk also arises when individual Group entities enter into transactions denominated in a currency other than their functional currency. The Group’s policy is, where possible, to allow Group entities to settle liabilities denominated in their functional currency (CFA, MZN or Pound Sterling) with the cash remitted to their own operations in that currency. Where Group entities have liabilities denominated in a currency other than their functional currency (and have insufficient reserves of that currency to settle them) cash already denominated in that currency will, where possible, be transferred from elsewhere within the Group. To mitigate the risk of the CFA/Euro expenditure in Mali, the Group holds cash in a Euro denominated bank account, sufficient to meet committed expenditure and other liabilities. The CFA has a permanent fixed exchange rate with Euro. Credit Risk The Group is exposed to credit risk through its loan receivables owed by Alecto Minerals Plc (“Alecto”). The Group’s exposure to credit risk is mitigated as the Group has the option to convert the loan to shares after 4 October 2014. 40 SaVannaH rESoUr CES plc — ANNUAL REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2013 Savannah-Resources-AR13 Proof 3.indd 40 23127-04 14 May 2014 3:38 PM Proof 3 14/05/2014 15:42:12 notES to tHE ConSoLIDatED fInanCIaL StatEmEnt S 19. fInanCIaL InStrUmEntS continued The Company is exposed to credit risk on its’ receivables from its subsidiaries. The subsidiaries are exploration companies with no current revenue and therefore, whilst the receivables are due on demand, they are not expected to be paid until there is a successful outcome on an exploration project resulting in revenue being generated by a subsidiary.

Fair values are determined using the quoted share price and applying the Black-Scholes valuation methodology.

CREST Personal Members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a voting service provider(s) should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf. In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made using the CREST service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a “CREST Proxy Instruction”) must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited’s specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual (available via euroclear.com/CREST). The message, regardless of whether it relates to the appointment of a proxy or to an amendment to the instruction given to a previously appointed proxy must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by the issuer’s agent (ID: 7RA36) by the latest time(s) for receipt of proxy appointments specified above. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which the issuer’s agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time, any change of Instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means. CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers should note that Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions.
