Mako Gold receives high-grade gold intercepts at Tchaga North

Episode Summary

Mako Gold Ltd (ASX:MKG) managing director Peter Ledwidge sits down with Proactive’s Jonathan Jackson to discuss the encouraging results from a 1,200-metre scout drilling program at the Tchaga North area of the company's 90%-owned flagship Napié Project in Côte d'Ivoire. The drilling targeted high-grade gold zones identified by recent mapping and trenching activities. It focused on the Deep Artisanal Mining Site, the Discovery Zone, and the Double Zone, which had not been previously drilled. Significant findings include a drill return of 7 metres at 5.39 g/t gold, including 1 metre at 31.15 g/t, beneath the workings of the artisanal mining site. This result confirms the site's potential for further exploration. The area, once heavily mined by artisanal methods, now sees limited activity due to the water table and hard rock, restricting digging to a maximum depth of 40 metres. Ledwidge, stated that these results highlighted Tchaga North as a critical zone for expanding the company's current 868,000-ounce maiden resource. The findings, particularly at the Deep Artisanal Mining Site, suggest the presence of a 1.2-kilometre mineralised corridor, which will be a focus for further drilling. #ProactiveInvestors #MakoGold #ASX #NapieProject #GoldExploration #CotedIvoire #MiningResults #TchagaNorth #DrillingProgram #GoldMining #ArtisanalMining #MiningIndustry #ASX #ResourceExpansion #GoldDiscovery #MineralisedCorridor #PeterLedwidge #HighGradeGold #Geology #MiningNews #ScoutDrilling #GoldZones#invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews
