TEMBO ANNOUNCES C$1,000,000 PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Vancouver, April 14, 2020 – Tembo Gold Corp. (TSXV: TEM) ("Tembo" or the "Company”) is pleased to announce a

non-brokered private placement. The Company proposes to complete a non-brokered private placement (the

“Financing”) consisting of 40,000,000 shares at a price of C$0.025 per share for total gross proceeds of C$1,000,000.

Several key investors and insiders will continue to demonstrate their long-term support by participating in t he

Financing. The Shares will be subject to a four month and one day hold period from the date of issuance of the shares.

The proceeds raised from the Financing will be used to support commencement of pre-feasibility study activities

including resource modeling utilizing existing extensive drill hole data. This includes extensive drill hole data,

metallurgical testwork, preliminary process and mine design and financial modeling. The Financing will also cover

corporate costs in Canada and Tanzania and be used for general working capital purposes. The Company may pay

a finder’s fee in connection with the Financing in accordance with the policies of the TSXV, subject to the approval

of the TSXV.

A number of discussions have been ongoing with potential production investment partners and it is anticipated that

these will be greatly progressed once a resource has been modeled and a pre-feasibility completed.

The Financing remains subject to acceptance and approval by the TSXV, including a 2:1 share rollback.

David Scott, President and CEO of Tembo states, "We are very pleased to announce this financing. The Tembo

Project remains the focus of the Company’s exploration efforts. The definition of a resource and completion of a pre-

feasibility will constitute the first step towards fulfilling the Company’s initial goal of turning the project to account

and de-risking the licences while generating free cash flow. This funding will ensure that the prospecting licence

tenure remains secure while the company progresses the steps to initiate production t hrough discussions with

potential production joint venture partners."

Simon Benstead, Director and CFO added: "With the support of insiders and commitment of management, Tembo

Gold has been a ble to navigate less than f avourable market conditions with prudent and disciplined capital

allocation. For a multitude of r easons, the Board views this as an opportunistic time to move forward towards

production. We aim to move rapidly to build upon the significant and very encouraging data that was assembled

between 2012 and 2014 resulting from the $25mm USD drill program. We are confident we will create long-term

shareholder value as we work to remove risk from the project over the next 12 months."
