Exhibit 99.2

Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Shareholder Meeting

to be Held on May 6, 2015

Kinross Gold Corporation

Notice of 2015 annual and special meeting of shareholders

and availability of Proxy Materials

This year, Kinross Gold Corporation (Kinross or the company) is providing you with access to its management information circular (the circular) for the annual and special meeting of shareholders (the meeting) electronically via notice and access, instead of mailing out paper copies, as permitted by Canadian securities regulators. Kinross is also providing you with access to its 2014 Annual Report (annual report) electronically, instead of mailing out paper copies. This means of delivery is more environmentally friendly as it will help reduce paper use and will also reduce the cost of printing and mailing materials to shareholders. All shareholders are reminded to review the circular before voting.

Shareholders with questions about notice and access can call Computershare Investor Services Inc. (the transfer agent) toll-free at 1-866-964-0492.

This notice provides details of the date, time and place of the meeting, including the matters to be voted on at the meeting. Accompanying this notice is a form of proxy or other voting document that you will need to vote by proxy.

You are a beneficial (non-registered) shareholder if your shares are held on your behalf by an intermediary. This means the shares are registered with Kinross’ transfer agent in your intermediary’s name, and you are the beneficial owner.
