According to a 2022 estimate, Mako Gold's Napié project hosts 868,000 ounces of gold in inferred resources. The Australian company has since been active in increasing the mineral resources at this project.
Mako Gold announced on July 10 the beginning of a 1,500-meter drilling program at the Tchaga North prospect at its Napié gold project in Cote d’Ivoire. The Australian firm targets three high-grade gold zones identified during recent exploration programs.

"Drill testing of the three high-grade prospects is just the beginning of what could reveal other significant gold mineralized zones. These zones could contribute to increasing the current gold resource of 868,000 ounces on the Napié permit," explained Peter Ledwidge, CEO of Mako Gold.
Geodrill will lead the drilling program. In 2023, the drilling company made a deal to provide Mako Gold with its services at half the cost in exchange for shares.
Mako Gold holds a 90% interest in the Napié project.
