Mako Mining Announces Drilling Permits for La Segoviana and Corporate Update

Drilling Permits Received at La Segoviana

The Company is pleased to report that the Ministry of Environmental and Natural Resources (“MARENA”) has

granted an exploration permit to the Company for the La Segoviana concession, which was granted to Mako in 2020.

The permit is valid for 10 years and is renewable for up to an additional 20 years. The Company is now permitted to

drill up to 1,100,000 meters (“m”) as follows: 500,000 m of diamond drilling; 300,000 m of reverse circulation

drilling; and 300,000 m of blast hole drilling. The Company is also permitted to carry out up to 32,500 m of trenching.

Key surface rights acquisitions at La Segoviana have already been made and the Company will be preparing a budget

for the first exploration program at this concession early in the beginning of 2022.

Corporate Update

The Company also announces that Cesar Gonzalez, Vice President of Corporate Development, has left the Company

to focus on his other endeavors.

Akiba Leisman, Chief Executive Officer of Mako states that, “we are extremely happy that MARENA has granted

us an exploration permit at La Segov iana, which in addition to the recently granted permit at Potrerillos, contains

some of our most prospective areas for exploration. Regarding the Corporate Update, we are sad to see Cesar go from

Mako and we wish him well on his other activities.”

On behalf of the Board,

Akiba Leisman

Chief Executive Officer
