Makara Acquires 128 New Claims in the Yukon
VANCOUVER, October 21, 2020 - Makara Mining Corp. (CSE:MAKA)(FSE:MK0)(OTC PINK:MAKAF) ("Makara" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has acquired an additional 128 quartz claims (the "Win Claims") and has registered them with the Yukon government. The Win Claims are contiguous with the southern boundary of the existing Rude Creek claim block. This new staking extends Makara's coverage of the prospective geology at the Rude Creek property to the south by five kilometers. Between the Win Claims, the Rude Creek project (option acquired in spring 2020) and the contiguous Idaho Creek project (option acquired in summer 2020), Makara now controls approximately 8,500 hectares of prospective geology immediately southeast of the Casino Porphyry Copper Gold deposit lands, Dawson Range, Yukon.
Makara also announces that the assaying of an extensive number of rock samples from the recently completed reverse circulation (RC) drill program at Rude Creek is taking longer than expected. The Company now expects to start seeing the initial results in the latter half of November, with complete results expected in the first half of December. The Company will provide a comprehensive update once it has received and reviewed the results.
Cautionary Statement
The potential quantity and grade of mineralization described herein is conceptual in nature as there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.
