VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / September 24, 2020 / Makara Mining Corp. (CSE:MAKA)(FSE:MK0)(OTC PINK:MAKAF) ("Makara" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has completed its reverse circulation (RC) drill program on its Rude Creek property in Yukon, Canada.
President and CEO, Grant Hendrickson, commented: "During our first drill program at Rude Creek, we completed 2,000 metres of drilling over 20 holes. Drilling was focused on a portion of the NE soil anomaly, which measures 1,000 metres by 1,600 metres. I am very excited about the geology and mineralization we encountered during the program and I look forward to receiving the assay results from the program.

Background on Rude Creek
Rude Creek is situated 12 kms southeast of the very large tonnage Casino copper-gold deposit, owned by Western Copper and Gold. The Casino deposit is being seriously considered for large-scale development. Newmont's sizeable Coffee orogenic gold deposit is located 45 kms to the northwest of Rude Creek. The Coffee Creek and Casino projects, together with the Rude Creek and other interesting gold projects in the area, are all contributing to the White Gold and Dawson Range gold belts becoming one of the most rapidly evolving regions of the Yukon.
