Tom Garagan, Senior Vice President of Exploration, a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has approved the scientific and technical information concerning B2Gold Corp. ("B2Gold") discussed in this presentation. All amounts in this presentation are expressed in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated. Production results and production guidance presented in this presentation (other than the Nicaraguan mines) reflect the total production at the mines B2Gold operates on a 100% basis. Please see our Annual Information Form dated March 20, 2020 ("AIF") for a discussion of our ownership interest in the mines B2Gold operates. This presentation includes certain "forward-looking information" and "forward-looking statements" (collectively "forward-looking statements") within the meaning of applicable Canadian and United States securities legislation, including: projections; outlook; guidance; budgets; forecasts; estimates; and other statements regarding future or estimated financial and operational performance, gold production and sales, gold revenues and cash flows, capital and operating costs, including projected cash operating costs and all-in sustaining costs, and budgets on a consolidated and mine by mine basis; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on B2Gold's operations, including any restrictions or suspensions of our operations and the effect of on our financial and operational results; the ability of the Company to successfully maintain our operations if they are temporarily suspended, and to restart or ramp-up these operations efficiently and economically, the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's workforce, suppliers and other essential resources and what effect those impacts, if they occur, would have on our business, our planned capital and exploration expenditures; statements regarding future or estimated mine life, metal price assumptions, ore grades or sources, stripping ratios, throughput, ore processing; statements regarding anticipated exploration, drilling, development, construction, permitting, targets and other activities or achievements of B2Gold; and including, without limitation: potential payment of future dividends, including the timing and amount of any such dividends; the projected annual production for 2020 being between 1,000,000 - 1,055,000 ounces with cash operating costs of between $415 and $455 per ounce and AISC of between $780 and $820 per ounce; annual consolidated gold production forecast to range between 900,000 and 1,100,000 ounces between 2020 and 2024 of the RCF facility; projected gold revenue in 2020 being approximately $1.8 billion and projected cash flows being approximately $900 million; the maintenance of a strong and profitable production profile; the completion of the solar plant at Fekola and the timing and results thereof; the exploration potential at the areas surrounding Fekola; the completion and results of a feasibility study on Gramalote Ridge; the completion of an updated resource estimate on Gramalote Ridge; the ability to permit certain areas near Masbate; the development of the Wolfshag underground mine at Otjikoto, including the results of such development and the costs and timing thereof; and B2Gold continuing to pursue grassroots exploration targets through acquisitions and joint ventures; and B2Gold's attributable share at El Limon and La Libertad. Estimates of mineral resources and reserves are also forward-looking statements because they constitute projections regarding the amount of minerals that may be encountered in the future and/or the anticipated economics of production, should a production decision be made. All statements in this presentation that address events or developments that we expect to occur in the future are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and are generally, although not always, identified by words such as "expect", "plan", "anticipate", "project", "target", "potential", "schedule", "forecast", "budget", "estimate", "intend" or "believe" and similar expressions or their negative connotations, or that events or conditions "will", "would", "may", "could", "should" or "might" occur. All such forward- looking statements are based on the opinions and estimates of management as of the date such statements are made. Forward-looking statements necessarily involve assumptions, risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond B2Gold's control, including risks associated with or related to: the duration and extent of the COVID-19 pandemic, the effectiveness of preventative measures and contingency plans put in place by the Company to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, including, but not limited to, social distancing, a non-essential travel ban, business continuity plans, and efforts to mitigate supply chain disruptions; escalation of travel restrictions on people or products and reductions in the ability of the Company to transport and refine doré; the volatility of metal prices and B2Gold's common shares; changes in tax laws; the dangers inherent in exploration, development and mining activities; the uncertainty of reserve and resource estimates; not achieving production, cost or other estimates; actual production, development plans and costs differing materially from the estimates in B2Gold's feasibility studies; the ability to obtain and maintain any necessary permits, consents or authorizations required for mining activities; environmental regulations or hazards and compliance with complex regulations associated with mining activities; climate change and climate change regulations; the ability to replace mineral reserves and identify acquisition opportunities; the unknown liabilities of companies acquired by B2Gold; the ability to successfully integrate acquisitions; fluctuations in exchange rates; the availability of financing; financing and debt activities, including potential restrictions imposed on B2Gold's operations as a result thereof and the ability to generate sufficient cash flows; operations in foreign and developing countries and the compliance with foreign laws, including those associated with operations in Mali, Namibia, the Philippines, Colombia and Burkina Faso and including risks related to changes in foreign laws and changing policies related to mining and local ownership requirements or resource nationalization generally, including in response to the COVID-19 pandemic; remote operations and the availability of adequate infrastructure; fluctuations in price and availability of energy and other inputs necessary for mining operations; shortages or cost increases in necessary equipment, supplies and labour; regulatory, political and country risks, including local instability or acts of terrorism and the effects thereof; the reliance upon contractors, third parties and joint venture partners; the lack of sole decision-making authority related to Filminera Resources Corporation, which owns the Masbate Project; challenges to title or surface rights; the dependence on key personnel and the ability to attract and retain skilled personnel; the risk of an uninsurable or uninsured loss; adverse climate and weather conditions; litigation risk; competition with other mining companies; community support for B2Gold's operations, including risks related to strikes and the halting of such operations from time to time; conflicts with small scale miners; failures of information systems or information security threats; the final outcome of the audit by the Philippines Department of Environment and Natural Resources in relation to the Masbate Project; the ability to maintain adequate internal controls over financial reporting as required by law, including Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; compliance with anti-corruption laws, and sanctions or other similar measures; social media and B2Gold's reputation; as well as other factors identified and as described in more detail under the heading "Risk Factors" in B2Gold's most recent AIF, B2Gold's current Form 40-F Annual Report and B2Gold's other filings with Canadian securities regulators and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), which may be viewed at www.sedar.comand www.sec.gov, respectively (the "Websites"). The list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect B2Gold's forward-looking statements. B2Gold's forward-looking statements are based on the applicable assumptions and factors management considers reasonable as of the date hereof, based on the information available to management at such time. These assumptions and factors include, but are not limited to, assumptions and factors related to B2Gold's ability to carry on current and future operations, including: development and exploration activities; the timing, extent, duration and economic viability of such operations, including any mineral resources or reserves identified thereby; the accuracy and reliability of estimates, projections, forecasts, studies and assessments; B2Gold's ability to meet or achieve estimates, projections and forecasts; the availability and cost of inputs; the price and market for outputs, including gold; the timely receipt of necessary approvals or permits; the ability to meet current and future obligations; the ability to obtain timely financing on reasonable terms when required; the current and future social, economic and political conditions; and other assumptions and factors generally associated with the mining industry. B2Gold's forward-looking statements are based on the opinions and estimates of management and reflect their current expectations regarding future events and operating performance and speak only as of the date hereof. B2Gold does not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements if circumstances or management's beliefs, expectations or opinions should change, other than as required by applicable law. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, and actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that any events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will transpire or occur, or if any of them do, what benefits or liabilities B2Gold will derive therefrom. For the reasons set forth above, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements.

Non-IFRSMeasures: This presentation includes certain terms or performance measures commonly used in the mining industry that are not defined under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), including "cash operating costs" and "all-in sustaining costs" (or "AISC"). Non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS, and therefore they may not be comparable to similar measures employed by other companies. The data presented is 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 and should be read in conjunction with B2Gold's consolidated financial statements. Readers should refer to B2Gold's Management Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A"), available under B2Gold's corporate profile at the Websites or on its website at www.b2gold.com, under the heading "Non-IFRS Measures" for a more detailed discussion of how B2Gold calculates such measures and a reconciliation of certain measures to IFRS terms.

Note to US Investors: The disclosure in this presentation was prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 ("NI 43-101"), which differs significantly from the current requirements of the SEC set out in Industry Guide 7. Accordingly, such disclosure may not be comparable to similar information made public by companies that report in accordance with Industry Guide 7. In particular, this news presentation may refer to "mineral resources," "measured mineral resources," "indicated mineral resources" or "inferred mineral resources". While these categories of mineralization are recognized and required by Canadian securities laws, they are not recognized by Industry Guide 7 and have not historically been permitted to be disclosed in SEC filings by U.S. companies subject to Industry Guide 7. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any part of a "mineral resource," "measured mineral resource," "indicated mineral resource" or "inferred mineral resource" will ever be converted into a "reserve." In addition, this presentation uses the terms "reserves" and "probable mineral reserves" which are reported by B2Gold under Canadian standards and may not qualify as reserves under Industry Guide 7. Under Industry Guide 7, mineralization may not be classified as a "reserve" unless the mineralization can be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time the "reserve" determination is made. Accordingly, information contained or referenced in this presentation containing descriptions of B2Gold's mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of Industry Guide 7. "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. Disclosure of "contained ounces" in a resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian reporting standards; however, Industry Guide 7 normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute "reserves" by Industry Guide 7 standards as in-place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. Historical results or feasibility models presented herein are not guarantees or expectations of future performance.

  3. Includes production/costs from discontinued operations and equity interest in Calibre for the period of October 15, 2019, to December 31, 2019
  4. On October 15, 2019, B2Gold restructured its interests in La Libertad Mine and El Limon Mine and, as a result, holds an approx. 34% equity interest in Calibre. Accordingly, from January 1, 2019, to the date of sale, for financial reporting purposes, B2Gold has classified production and results from these mines as discontinued operations
  5. Commencing from October 15, 2019, B2Gold applies the equity method of accounting for its ownership in Calibre (approx. 34%) and reports its attributable share of Calibre production/costs as part of its total production/cost results
  6. On November 4, 2020, Calibre provided its revised 2020 production guidance. The Company's attributable gold production from Calibre is now estimated to be between 42,000 and 44,000 ounces for 2020 (compared to the original estimate of between 45,000 and 50,000 ounces of gold). However, given that B2Gold's three operating mines were 26,412 oz ahead of budget YTD, the Company has determined that its overall consolidated production and financial guidance should be maintained

B2Gold's consolidated production and guidance are presented on a 100% basis, except where noted

GRAMALOTE PEA: HIGHLIGHTS 12

B2Gold 50% (Operator) AngloGold Ashanti ("AGA") 50%

Assuming an effective date of January 1, 2020, and a gold price of $1,350 /oz, Gramalote Ridge

project economic highlights from the PEA1 include:

• An open-pit gold mine with an initial LoM of 13.6 years

• LoM pre-tax net cash flow of $1,827 M and after-tax net

(based on current Indicated and Inferred Mineral

Resources)

cash flow of $1,283 M

• Average annual gold production for the LoM of 283,990

• Pre-tax net present value ("NPV") (5% discount) of

oz/y at cash operating costs of $544 /oz and AISC of

$1,027 M and after-tax NPV of $671 M generates an after-

$648 /oz

tax internal rate of return ("IRR") of 18.1% at the project

construction decision date2 and a project payback3 of 3.6

• Average annual gold production of 416,600 oz/y for the

years

first five full years of production

• Assuming a gold price of $1,500 /oz, pre-tax NPV

• Annual processing rate of 11 million tonnes per annum

(5% discount) increases to $1,394 M and after-tax NPV

(Mtpa)

increases to $928 M, which generates an after-tax IRR of

21.9% at the project construction decision date and

• Average LoM gold recovery of 94.3% from conventional

reduces the project payback to 3.2 years

The PEA is preliminary in nature and includes Inferred Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative

geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral

• Estimated pre-production capital cost of $901 M

Reserves, and there is no certainty that the PEA based on these Mineral Resources will be realized. Mineral Resources

that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability

NOTES TO MINERAL RESERVES

28

  1. Mineral Reserves have been classified using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Standards ("CIM"). All tonnage, grade and contained metal content estimates have been rounded; rounding may result in apparent summation differences between tonnes, grade, and contained metal content.
  2. Fekola Mine: Mineral Reserves are reported on a 100% project and an 80% attributable basis, the remaining 20% interest is held by the State of Mali. The Mineral Reserves have an effective date of December 31, 2019 and have been prepared by Peter D. Montano, P.E., our Project Director, and a Qualified Person under NI 43-101. Mineral Reserves are based on a conventional open pit mining method, gold price of US$1,350/oz, metallurgical recovery of 94%, selling costs of US$113.88/oz including royalties, average mining cost of US$2.27 per tonne ("/t") mined, average processing cost of US$15.32/t processed, and site general costs of US$4.27/t processed. Reserve model dilution and ore loss was applied through whole block averaging such that at an 0.8 g/t Au cut-off there is a 0.7% increase in tonnes, a 1.7% reduction in grade, and 1.0% reduction in ounces when compared to the Mineral Resource model. Mineral Reserves are reported above a cut-off grade of 0.8 g/t Au.
  3. Masbate Gold Project: Mineral Reserves are reported on a 100% attributable basis. Pursuant to the ore sales and purchase agreement between Filminera Resources Corporation ("Filminera") and Philippine Gold Processing & Refining Corporation ("PGPRC"), our wholly-owned subsidiary, PGPRC has the right to purchase all ore from the Masbate Gold Project. We have a 40% interest in Filminera, which owns the majority of the Masbate Gold Project tenements. Please see "Material Properties - Masbate Gold Project" on pages 31 - 41 in B2Gold's AIF dated March 20, 2020, for a further discussion of the foregoing. The Mineral Reserves have an effective date of December 31, 2019. The Qualified Person for the estimate is Kevin Pemberton, P.E., our Chief Mine Planning Engineer. Mineral Reserves are based on a conventional open pit mining method, gold price of US$1,350/oz, modeled metallurgical recovery (resulting in average LOM metallurgical recoveries by pit that range from 64-85%), selling costs of $58.15/oz (including the excise tax), and average base operating cost estimates of US$1.41-$1.67/t mined (mining), US$11.37/t processed (processing including capital costs) and US$1.98-US$3.31/t processed (general and administrative). Dilution and ore loss were applied through block averaging such that at a cut-off of 0.45 g/t Au, there is a 5.1% increase in tonnes, a 5.6% reduction in grade and 0.8% reduction in ounces when compared to the Mineral Resource model. Mineral Reserves are reported at cut-offs that range from 0.40-0.53 g/t Au.
  4. Otjikoto Mine: Otjikoto Mineral Reserves are reported on a 100% project and a 90% attributable basis; the remaining 10% interest is held by EVI Mining (Proprietary) Ltd. ("EVI"), a Namibian empowerment company. The Otjikoto Mineral Reserves within the open pits and stockpiles have an effective date of December 31, 2019 and have been prepared by Peter D. Montano, P.E., our Project Director, and a Qualified Person under NI 43- 101. Mineral Reserves within the open pits and stockpiles are based on a conventional open pit mining method, gold price of US$1,350/oz, metallurgical recovery of 98%, selling costs of US$57.44/oz including royalties and levies, average mining cost of US$2.29/t mined, average processing cost of US$12.26/t processed, and site general costs of US$3.15/t processed. Reserve model dilution and ore loss was applied through whole block averaging such that at a 0.45 g/t Au cut-off there is a 2.3% decrease in tonnes, a 2.2% reduction in grade, and a 4.4% reduction in ounces when compared to the Mineral Resource model. Mineral Reserves within the open pits and stockpiles are reported above a cut-off grade of 0.45 g/t Au. Mineral Reserves to be mined using underground methods at Wolfshag have an effective date of December 31, 2019, and have been prepared by Kyle Foster, P. Eng, our Senior Mine Engineer, and a Qualified Person under NI 43-101. Mineral Reserves to be mined using underground methods are based on a modified transverse longhole stoping mining method, gold price of US$1,350/oz, metallurgical recovery of 98%, selling costs of US$57.44/oz including royalties and levies, average mining cost of US$83.60/t mined, average processing cost of US$12.26/t processed, general costs of US$3.15/t processed, 10% dilution, and 90% mining recovery. Underground Mineral Reserves are reported above a cut-off grade of 2.68 g/t Au.
  5. Stockpiles: Mineral Reserves in stockpiled material are reported in the totals for the Fekola Mine, the Otjikoto Mine and the Masbate Gold Project, and were prepared by mine site personnel at each operation. Ore stockpile balances are derived from mining truck movements to individual stockpiles or detailed surveys, with grade estimated from routine grade control methods. Stockpile cut-offs vary by deposit, from 0.4-0.7 g/t Au.
