MELBOURNE, March 23, 2020 - OceanaGold Corp. (TSX: OGC) (ASX: OGC) (the "Company") wishes to update the market on the response to COVID-19 measures being put in place by the New Zealand Government.

On Monday 23 March 2020 New Zealand Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, announced a COVID-19 alert level three, with the Government's highest response, alert level four, to be implemented from 11.59pm on Wednesday 25 March 2020. Alert level four requires businesses not exempt as essential services or lifeline utilities to close for an initial period of four weeks.

From 11.59pm Wednesday 25 March 2020, The Waihi Operation in the North Island of New Zealand will temporarily suspend the ongoing development of the Martha Underground Mine and go into care and maintenance for the duration of the four-week mandated closure.

The Company is working with the New Zealand Government to determine what exemptions may be available for the Macraes Operation in the South Island of New Zealand.

OceanaGold Corp.'s Acting President and CEO, Michael Holmes, said the Company was supportive of the government's aim to protect the health and safety of all New Zealanders.

"We recognise strong decisions will be made to slow down the spread of COVID-19", Mr Holmes said. "We will work with the Government to support the health and safety of the communities where we work and live."

The Company will provide the market with another update when we have more information.
