Makara Intersects Wide Intervals of Variable Gold Grades Over 200 metre Strike Length in Reconnaissance Drilling at Rude Creek, Yukon

10.02.2021  |  Accesswire

VANCOUVER, February 10, 2021 - Makara Mining Corp. (CSE:MAKA)(FSE:MK0)(OTC PINK:MAKAF) ("Makara" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an interim update on its 2,000-meter RC (reverse circulation) drill program results from its Rude Creek gold property (the "Rude Creek or the "Property") in Yukon, Canada.

Highlights:

  • Approximately 45% of the assays have now been received with the remaining 55% expected over the next 2-4 weeks
  • Best intercepts received-to-date include:
    • 80.77 m of 0.17 g/t Au and 3.3 g/t Ag (incl. 13.72 m of 0.59 g/t Au and 14.1 g/t Ag, incl. 1.52 m of 3.15 g/t Au and 76.4 g/t Ag) in ROYRC20-18 (starting at surface)
    • 4.57 m of 0.74 g/t Au (incl. 1.52 m of 2.13 g/t Au) in ROYRC20-14 (at 106.7 m)
    • 21.34 m of 0.13 g/t Au (incl. 1.52 m of 1.00 g/t Au) in ROYRC20-16 (at 39.6 m)
    • 21.34 m of 0.10 g/t Au (incl. 1.52 m of 0.13 g/t Au and 12 g/t Ag) in ROYRC20-27 (at 70.1 m)
    • 13.72 m of 0.16 g/t Au (incl. 3.05 m of 0.35 g/t Au) in ROYRC20-28 (at 85.3 m)
  • Gold mineralization was intersected over a strike length of over 200 metres, within the north-west portion of the 'Northeast' soil-anomaly which remains open and measures 1,000 m by 1,600 m
  • Overall, drill results thus far have identified the presence of a new gold system with controls on mineralization which appear predominantly north-south oriented
  • Further drilling aimed at finding the centre of the system (and its full extent) is strongly warranted
  • Makara will provide a more comprehensive update once all assay results are received, compiled and interpreted, over the coming few weeks

"This is the first systematic drill campaign ever completed at Rude Creek. We are encouraged this preliminary drilling has provided a 'proof of concept' and that a gold system is indeed present on the property," stated Grant Hendrickson, CEO. "We look forward to providing a detailed analysis of the 2020 work in due course, along with plans for the 2021 field season."

Rude Creek Drill Program

The Property is well located in the Dawson Range of the Yukon, within 15 km of the Casino Cu-Au deposit (Western Copper) and 50 km of Newmont's Coffee Creek gold deposit. The 2020 drilling program was undertaken to evaluate one of the better gold-in-soil anomalies (the "Target") well defined on the Property and to expand upon the encouraging results from hole RC19-09 drilled in 2019. The Target occurs within an excellent structural setting.

Shallow focused RC drilling in 2020 was conducted from five separate drill pad locations (see Exhibit 1). Pad 1 is the northern most pad, the other pads are in sequence approximately 50-75 metres south of the previous pad. Pad 5 is approximately 250 metres south of Pad 1. Several holes at various azimuths and inclinations were drilled from each pad (to test for conjugate vein orientations; see Exhibit 1 and 3). Seventeen holes (12 to 28) were drilled on the Target in 2020 and two holes (9 and 10) were drilled on the Target in 2019.

The RC drilling technique collects a 1.52-metre down hole rock chip sample, resulting in a spatial resolution of 1.52 metres per assay sample. Note that all of the 2019/2020 RC drill holes have been completely sampled, in increments of 1.52 metres. The gold content of the assay results was determined by fire assay. This news release comments only on the gold content of sample intervals above 0.1 g/t with a minimum width of 1.52 metre.

The detailed multi element assaying of all the Rude Creek RC rock chips indicates that the gold mineralization at the Target is hosted within several polymetallic vein occurrences. Geochemically anomalous amounts of silver, lead, copper, arsenic, bismuth and tungsten tend to accompany gold mineralization. Some of the stronger gold intervals occur with elevated silver grades (up to 76 g/t Ag) which could be of economic interest. More work on these metal associations is ongoing.

Makara has received complete assays for eight holes with the balance of nine holes expected over the next month. The Company hopes to provide more complete mapping, modelling and detailed conclusions on the assay information, geology, mineralogy, structure and deposit type in approximately three months once all new assay, hyperspectral imaging, detailed geology, structural analysis and other imaging data sets are ready.

The information to date however suggests the main structural control of the target mineralization appears to be predominantly north-south oriented. The Company's interim results are shown below.
