[{"type":"text","content":"Mako Mining Intersects 23.47 g/t Au over 9.5 m (Estimated True Width) at Las Conchitas, 15 m from SurfaceVANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 6, 2023 / Mako Mining Corp. (TSX-V:MKO)(OTCQX:MAKOF) (\"Mako\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce results from an additional 68 reverse circulation (RC) infill drill holes at Las Conchitas, located immediately south of the company's San Albino gold mine, which is currently in commercial production.To date, 230 RC holes have been completed totaling 9,022 meters (see drill plan below). The main objective of the near-surface, infill drilling campaign is to gain a higher level of confidence of the geometry of gold mineralization within six areas of interest where the Company has received a permit to process material through the San Albino plant (\"Las Conchitas Permit\" see press release of June 19, 2023).HighlightsResults in the southern portion of Las Conchitas (\"LC-S\") are some of the most exceptional, near surface gold intervals reported at Las Conchitas23.47 g/t Au and 32.6 g/t Ag over 11.0 m (9.5m ETW)13.78 g/t Au and 20.6 g/t Ag over 4.0 m (3.1m ETW)12.03 g/t Au and 21.9 g/t Ag over 5.0 m (4.7m ETW)21.80 g/t Au and 17.1 g/t Ag over 7.0 m (6.1m ETW)28.78 g/t Au and 30.5 g/t Ag over 3.0 m (ETW)7.00 g/t Au and 14.6 g/t Ag over 11.0 m (9.5m ETW)Akiba Leisman, CEO of Mako states, \"Extraction of material at Las Conchitas North began 10 weeks ago, and extraction within the Las Conchitas South area, which is known to contain some of the best material at Las Conchitas, including areas around these exceptionally wide and high-grade intersections, is scheduled to begin in October as a part of the metallurgical program to optimize the blend of the mill feed, with processing beginning in early November. After a period beginning in late February where the Company was processing more lower grade stockpiled material than originally planned prior to receiving the Las Conchitas Permits, since August 14th the plant has been back to its original processing plan with grades and metallurgical recoveries materially higher. A full intra-quarter operating update will be made available in two weeks to review and quantify these improvements.\"In the southern portion of Las Conchitas (Bayacun area), several drill holes were designed to extend a high-grade, wide zone identified by the Company's previou...
