   Serabi Gold plc 
 
   ("Serabi" or the "Company") 
 
   Final Exploration Results for Coringa ahead of Preliminary Economic 
Assessment 
 
   Serabi Gold (AIM:SRB, TSX:SBI), the Brazilian focused gold mining and 
development company, is pleased to announce some additional drilling 
results from the conclusion of the surface drilling programme that was 
conducted at its wholly-owned Coringa gold project located in Para 
state.

   Coringa Drilling Highlights 
 
 
   -- Hole COR0381 - intersected 2.65m @ 8.51 g/t gold (inc. 1.40m @ 15.82 g/t 
      gold) 
 
   -- Hole COR0383 - intersected 1.15m @ 9.69 g/t gold (inc. 0.6m @ 17.74 g/t 
      gold) 
 
   -- Hole COR0380 - intersected 0.75m @  7.61 g/t gold 
 
   -- Hole COR0374 - intersected 0.80m @  0.44 g/t gold 
 
   -- Hole COR0377 - intersected 0.70m @  0.39 g/t gold 
 
 
   CEO Mike Hodgson commented: 
 
   "These are the final results from the Coringa 2018-2019 drill campaign, 
the initial results of which underpinned the NI 43-101 compliant 
geological resource update, details of which were issued on 4 March 
2019.  That update resulted in a 37% increase in the total geological 
resource, so I am very pleased with the results of these final holes, 
which were not fully included in that updated geological resource and 
should contribute to a further increase in the total geological 
resource. This drilling campaign, which began in the fourth quarter of 
2018, has increased the Meio resource significantly, extending the 
payable zone by some 575m of strike length to the south.  The last holes 
drilled, COR0381 and COR0383 were drilled into this payable southern 
extension, with both intersecting excellent grades over mineable widths. 
COR0383 is especially pleasing as it is close the southern limit of the 
new payable zone, and the results suggest there is even more potential 
to the south. 
 
   "From our experience at Palito and Sao Chico, we know that infill 
drilling on these veins from surface is impractical and that the best 
understanding is obtained from underground development and underground 
drilling.  With the GUIA trial mining license ("GUIA") in place, we are 
just awaiting final blasting permits, and once these are obtained, 
intend to commence an exploratory ramp into the Serra zone at Coringa, 
providing us with bulk sample data and better understanding to the 
orebody geometry. 
 
   "Whilst a new Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") is well underway, 
it is clear the Meio vein is shaping up to be a very significant orebody 
that has now been traced for a strike length of well over 1.3 
kilometres. These additional drilling results are being incorporated 
into a further revision of the geological resource, which in turn will 
be incorporated into the PEA on the Coringa Project, results of which 
are expected to be disclosed before the end of July 2019." 
 
   Drilling Results 
 
   The assay results for the six holes in this release were not included in 
the NI 43-101 compliant geological resource estimation published on 
March 4 2019.  These six results represent the final 2 holes (COR0382 
and COR0383) of the drill programme, together with the assays results 
from the independent laboratory (SGS Geosol, Belo Horizonte) for four 
holes where the previous disclosure was only of assays results generated 
by the Company's own laboratory. 
 
   Hole COR0383 targeted the Meio #2 vein and intersected 1.15m @ 9.69g/t 
Au (including 0.6m @ 17.74m) from 134.2 metres down hole depth. This 
intercept was a significant 'step out' hole, increasing the total 
drilled strike of the Meio #2 vein to 1,300 metres. 
 
   External laboratory analyses have now been received from SGS Geosol 
("SGS") for drill holes COR0374, COR0377, COR0380 and COR0381. Whilst 
these drill holes were used to assist the geological interpretation of 
the Meio vein, the internally generated assay data was excluded from the 
previous resource estimation. 
 
   The final assay results from the four previously disclosed drill holes 
together with the assay results from the final two drill holes are 
listed below:

   These drill holes formed part of step out drill programme along the 
strike projection of the structures focussed on testing the strike or 
plunge projections of a number of the key lode structures which 
commenced in mid-2018.

   The Company has also undertaken a re-logging and re-sampling programme 
that was completed on historic Coringa drill holes in the first half of 
2019.  A total of 179 early Coringa drill holes were reassessed. 
Re-sampling was completed on 43 of the 179 drill holes honouring 
geological contacts and quartz vein structures. A total of 92 core 
samples were analysed and significant grade increases reported in many 
mineralised intersections, as a consequence of the exclusion of the 
dilution effects of unmineralised host wall rocks that the previous 
owners had included within the sampled intervals.  These improved 
intercepts are now being used in a further revision of the geological 
resource estimate and will be incorporated in the PEA the initial result 
of which are due to be issued before the end of July 2019.

   GLOSSARY OF TERMS 
 
   The following is a glossary of technical terms: 
 
   "Au" means gold. 
 
   "assay" in economic geology, means to analyse the proportions of metal 
in a rock or overburden sample; to test an ore or mineral for 
composition, purity, weight or other properties of commercial interest. 
 
   "development" - excavations used to establish access to the mineralised 
rock and other workings 
 
   "DNPM" is the Departamento Nacional de Produção Mineral. 
 
   "grade" is the concentration of mineral within the host rock typically 
quoted as grammes per tonne (g/t), parts per million (ppm) or parts per 
billion (ppb). 
 
   "g/t" means grams per tonne. 
 
   "granodiorite" is an igneous intrusive rock similar to granite. 
 
   "igneous" is a rock that has solidified from molten material or magma. 
 
   "Intrusive" is a body of igneous rock that invades older rocks. 
 
   "on-lode development" - Development that is undertaken in and following 
the direction of the Vein 
 
   "mRL" -- depth in metres measured relative to a fixed point -- in the 
case of Palito and Sao Chico this is sea-level.  The mine entrance at 
Palito is at 250mRL. 
 
   "saprolite" is a weathered or decomposed clay--rich rock. 
 
   "scrubber" -- a machine for cleaning ore and removing impurities such as 
clays, coatings or other deleterious materials. 
 
   "stoping blocks" -- a discrete area of mineralised rock established for 
planning and scheduling purposes that will be mined using one of the 
various stoping methods. 
 
   "vein" is a generic term to describe an occurrence of mineralised rock 
within an area of non-mineralised rock.
