B2Gold Corp. (TSX: BTO, NYSE AMERICAN: BTG, NSX: B2G) (“B2Gold” or
the “Company”) is pleased to announce additional positive
exploration drilling results from the Fekola Regional area in Mali,
located approximately 25 kilometers (“km”) north and northeast of
the Fekola Mine. The Fekola Regional area, comprised of the
Anaconda Area (Bantako North and Menankoto permits), the Bakolobi
permit, and the Dandoko permit, forms part of the Fekola Complex,
which also includes the Medinandi permit that hosts the Fekola Mine
and the Cardinal Zone.
Highlights
- At the Mamba Zone,
exploration drilling in 2023 has been focused on saprolite mineral
resource conversion and expanding high grade sulphide
mineralization shoots.
- Hole MSD_241 returned 8.60 grams
per tonne (“g/t”) gold over 46.40 meters (“m”) from 443.30 m
(sulphide), further establishing the continuity of the high grade
sulphide shoot in Mamba Main Zone. Hole MSD_241 is one of the
highest gram-meter intercepts drilled to date at the Anaconda
Area.
- At the Cobra and Taipan
zones, mineralization is defined over an 8-kilometer strike extent,
from the southern portion of the Menankoto permit and continuing on
to the Bakolobi permit.
- Hole BKR_165 returned 5.01 g/t gold
over 13.00 m from 57.00 m including 7.05 g/t gold over 9.00 m from
61.00 m (sulphide). The Cobra and Taipan zones remain open both
along strike and at depth.
- At the Dandoko permit,
infill drilling has validated the known high grade saprolite zone
at Seko and defined additional sulphide mineralization.
- Hole DDSK23_159 returned 4.40 g/t
gold over 51.00 m from 44.00 m (saprolite), and hole DDSK23_154
returned 4.57 g/t gold over 36.50 m from 82.00 m (sulphide).
Drilling at Dandoko will continue with the objective to expand
known saprolite and sulphide mineralization.
- An updated Anaconda Area
Mineral Resource estimate, incorporating an additional
approximately 120,000 meters of drilling, is underway and
anticipated to be completed in Q2 2023.
- To allow for incorporation of this
updated resource estimate, the engineering study of a stand-alone
mill and oxide processing facilities at Fekola Regional (Anaconda
Area) is now expected in the fourth quarter of 2023. In addition,
Fekola Complex optimization work continues to maximize project
value from all the various oxide and sulphide material sources
including the Fekola Pit, Fekola Underground, Cardinal Pit, and the
Bantako North, Menankoto, Bakolobi and Dandoko permits.
2023 Mali Exploration Drilling
Program
In 2023, B2Gold is conducting a $35 million
exploration program on the Fekola Complex. The initial focus of
this year’s 178,000 m drill program has been the Anaconda Area,
which includes the Mamba, Adder, Anaconda, Cascabel, Boomslang,
Taipan and Cobra zones.
Of the 85,000 m of drilling completed to date in
2023, approximately 39,000 m of infill drilling has been allocated
to the Anaconda Area to facilitate an upgrade of the Inferred
portion of the March 2022 Mineral Resource estimate to an Indicated
category. Assays from this infill drilling program have been
received and are being incorporated into to an updated Mineral
Resource estimate, scheduled for completion by the end of the
second quarter of 2023.
Figure 1. Fekola Complex Overview.
Anaconda Area Exploration
Mamba Zone (Bantako North and Menankoto
permits)
As a significant contributor to the combined
mineral resources in the Anaconda Area, Mamba has been the subject
of a focused campaign of infill drilling, with approximately 30% of
the 17,992 m completed to date in 2023 being directed at resource
class conversion within the oxide portions of Mamba. In addition,
exploration for high grade sulphide mineralization continues to be
an important part of the 2023 drilling program. Hole MSD_241
returned 8.60 g/t gold over 46.40 m, from 443.30 m (sulphide) and
Hole BND_135 returned 5.87 g/t gold over 22.40 m, from 335.70 m
(sulphide). These holes are consistent with previous intercepts in
the high grade shoot below the March 2022 Mineral Resource pit
boundary and will form the basis for follow up drilling later in
2023. Mineralization remains open along this shallow plunging
zone.

Cobra and Taipan Zones (Menankoto and Bakolobi
permits)
Year to date, 19,700 m of drilling have been
completed on Cobra, the majority of which will contribute to the
upgrade of the existing Inferred Mineral Resource estimate from
March 2022. Much of this drilling has been completed on the
Bakolobi portion of the Cobra Zone, which adds additional strike
extent to the dimensions of Cobra relative to the March 2022
Mineral Resource estimate.
The Cobra Zone was previously documented over 8
km of known strike extent, from Menankoto to the southern end of
the Bakolobi permit. The southernmost 2.5 km of the Cobra Zone are
now believed to be a separate structure, which is currently being
explored as the Taipan Zone. Recent drilling on Cobra and Taipan
have returned encouraging intervals of saprolite and sulphide
mineralization. Hole BKR_165 returned 5.01 g/t gold over 13.00 m,
from 57.00 m (sulphide) and Hole BKR_233 returned 1.74 g/t gold
over 33.00 m, from 74.00 m (sulphide).

Dandoko Exploration
On the Dandoko permit, 27,300 m of reverse
circulation and diamond drilling has been completed to date in
2023. Selective infill drilling was completed on Seko 1 and 2 zones
to help inform the new B2Gold resource model. Drilling continues to
focus on saprolite mineralization, however Hole DDSK23_154 returned
4.57 g/t gold over 36.50 m, from 82.00 m (sulphide), including 9.95
g/t gold over 6.70 m, from 102.50 m (sulphide), warranting
follow-up drilling in 2023 with the goal of expanding known
sulphide mineralization.

2023 Fekola Regional
Exploration
At present, 11 drills are deployed in West Mali
undertaking a mix of infill drilling on the sulphide mineralization
at Mamba, exploration drilling along the Cobra and Taipan zones,
and aircore and auger reconnaissance drilling of regional targets
near Dandoko. At Mamba, local condemnation drill programs in
support of mine planning are scheduled to be completed in May and
June. In the second half of 2023, upwards of 40,000 m of drilling
is planned in the Fekola Regional area targeting saprolite and
sulphide resource expansion.
Fekola Regional Development
Update
Based on the 2022 Anaconda Area Mineral Resource
estimate and B2Gold's preliminary planning, the Company
demonstrated that the Anaconda Area could provide selective higher
grade saprolite material (average annual grade of up to 2.2 g/t
gold) to be trucked approximately 20 km and fed into the Fekola
mill at a rate of up to 1.5 million tonnes per annum. Trucking of
selective higher grade saprolite material from the Anaconda Area to
the Fekola mill will increase the ore processed and has the
potential to generate approximately 80,000 to 100,000 ounces of
initial gold production per year from Fekola Regional sources
(Fekola Regional Phase I). Initial saprolite production is expected
to commence from the Bantako North permit starting in the third
quarter of 2023 and is expected to contribute approximately 18,000
ounces of gold in 2023 with Fekola Regional production levels
continuing to ramp-up through 2024.
In the first quarter of 2023, the Company
invested $15 million in the development of Fekola Regional
(Anaconda Area) saprolite mining including road construction, mine
infrastructure, and mining equipment. For 2023, the Company has
budgeted a total of $63 million for Fekola Regional development.
The construction mobile equipment fleet is now in operation, and
construction of the haul roads and mining infrastructure
(warehouse, workshop, fuel depot, and offices) is on schedule to
support saprolite production from the Bantako North permit area as
early as the third quarter of 2023. Production from Bantako North
is contingent upon receipt of all necessary permits, which are
expected tobe received in the second quarter of 2023.
Preliminary results of a Fekola Complex
optimization study, coupled with 2022 exploration drilling results,
indicate that there is a significant opportunity to increase gold
production and resource utilization with the addition of oxide
processing capacity. The Company is progressing an engineering
study of a Fekola Regional stand-alone mill and oxide processing
facilities (expected to be located on the Anaconda Area).
Construction of a stand-alone oxide mill would constitute Phase II
of the Fekola Regional Development Plan. The engineering study will
be based on processing 4 Mtpa of saprolite and transitional (oxide)
resources. The current Anaconda Area Mineral Resource estimate,
released in March 2022 and based on the results of exploration
drilling completed up to January 11, 2022, included Indicated
Resources of 32.4 million tonnes at 1.08 g/t gold for 1.13 million
ounces of gold, all of which was weathered oxide ore, and Inferred
Resources that included 19.1 million tonnes of oxide ore at 0.81
g/t gold for 0.50 million ounces of gold, and 44.6 million tonnes
of sulphide ore at 1.25 g/t gold for 1.79 million ounces of gold.
Since that date through March 31, 2023, the Company has completed
approximately 120,000 m of drilling at the Anaconda Area, which
included infill drilling to upgrade a significant portion of the
Inferred oxide resources to the Indicated category, as well as
extending both oxide and sulphide resources in the area. An updated
Anaconda Area Mineral Resource estimate is currently underway and
scheduled to be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2023.
Consequently, to allow for incorporation of this updated Mineral
Resource estimate into the engineering study, results of the study
are now expected in the fourth quarter of 2023. In addition, Fekola
Complex optimization work continues to maximize project value from
all the various oxide and sulphide material sources including the
Fekola Pit, Fekola Underground, Cardinal Pit, and the Bantako
North, Menankoto, Bakolobi and Dandoko permits. The Company’s
conceptual analysis indicates that the combined Fekola Mine and
Fekola Regional processing facilities could have the potential to
produce more than 800,000 ounces of gold per year from the Fekola
Complex, subject to delineation of additional mineral resources and
development, completion of feasibility studies, and the receipt of
all necessary regulatory approvals and permits.
QA/QC on Sample Collection and
AssayingThe primary laboratories for Fekola are SGS
Laboratories in Bamako, Mali and Bureau Veritas Laboratories in
Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire. Periodically, exploration samples will be
analyzed at the Fekola Mine laboratory. At each laboratory, samples
are prepared and analyzed using 50-gram fire assay with atomic
absorption finish and/or gravimetric finish. Umpire assays are used
to monitor lab performance monthly.
Quality assurance and quality control procedures
include the systematic insertion of blanks, standards and
duplicates into the core, reverse circulation and aircore drilling
sample strings. The results of the control samples are evaluated on
a regular basis with batches re-analyzed and/or resubmitted as
needed. All results stated in this announcement have passed
B2Gold’s quality assurance and quality control protocols.
