 Akiba Leisman, Chief Executive Officer of Mako states "Q2 2026 was another record quarter of production for the Company, with gold production increasing sequentially from our last record quarter in Q1 2026.  The San Albino mine continues to perform well, and the Moss mine continues to ramp up as planned.  Total cash, gold-linked securities and trade receivables now stand at US$112 million, an increase of US$15 million from the previous quarter, a significant accomplishment given the amount of capital being invested in exploration at both mines, and the investments being made to advance our two development projects.  This is the first quarter the Company has reinvested a significant amount of cash (approximately US$40 million) in gold-linked securities, taking advantage of lower gold prices.  Lastly, it was an important event that we received the Eureka concession immediately to the west of San Albino, adding an additional 30 km2 of some of the area's most highly prospective ground to our land package.  We have been in discussions to acquire this concession for well over a decade, and this is the first time in history that the concessions immediately surrounding the historic San Albino mine have been fully consolidated."

 San Albino Granted Eureka Concession

 Mako Mining's wholly-owned Nicaraguan subsidiary, Nicoz Resources, S.A., has successfully finalized the definitive legal registration and acquisition of the "Eureka" mineral concession, located in the department of Nueva Segovia, Nicaragua. The Eureka concession encompasses approximately 3,000 hectares of highly prospective terrain immediately to the west of the San Albino-Murra and El Jicaro concessions, expanding Mako's total land package to 254 km2. This acquisition secures exclusive, long-term exploration and exploitation rights over ground immediately adjacent to the Company's operating San Albino and Las Conchitas mining areas.

 Mt. Hamilton Project

 In Q2 2026, the Mt. Hamilton Project continued predevelopment activities. Six full-time employees were added to the staff, including accounting, procurement, environmental, and operations personnel. The project also added 7 pieces of heavy equipment to the on-site fleet, including motor graders, dozers, water trucks, and excavators to support on-site predevelopment activities. 

 A condemnation drilling program is expected to be completed by August to finalize engineering decisions regarding the placement of the three-stage crusher and conveyance system. Once complete, full-scale construction can commence.

 Eagle Mountain Gold Project

 On March 25, 2026, the Company filed the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment ("ESIA") for the Eagle Mountain Project with the Guyana Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"). The ESIA incorporates results of baseline studies for environmental, social, cultural, engineering and project design layouts with expected impacts and mitigation measures. The filing of the ESIA initiated a 60-day public comment period. In Q2 2026, this process included Disclosure Meetings in communities proximal to the Eagle Mountain Project and in the capital, Georgetown. Comments received during the public comment period will be addressed in the Final ESIA document. The Company anticipates filing the Final ESIA in the second half of 2026 following which the EPA is expected to make a determination on ESIA approval and then the Environmental Authorization (permit) for the Project. The engineering program for 2026 includes a continuation of geotechnical drilling using the Company-owned drill rig.

 The geotechnical program continued into early Q2 2026, prior to the start of the wet season, with a focus on drilling in areas of the pit walls for mine design optimization. In Q2 2026, five geotechnical holes were completed for 258 meters ("m"). The balance of the geotechnical holes is planned for the Q3 2026 dry season. Together with a contractor rig, the 2026 drill program also includes an estimated 5,000 m of infill and metallurgical-focused drilling. Infill drilling is focused on the Eagle Mountain and Salbora deposits. The metallurgical drilling program using large diameter drill core is designed to generate sample for follow-up test work with a focus on the deeper fresh rock mineralization. During Q2 2026 the company completed 7 infill drill holes totaling 474 m and 11 metallurgical-focused drill holes totaling 771 m.

 Non-GAAP Measures

 The Company has included certain non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios in this press release such as Average realized gold price per ounce sold. These non-GAAP measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. In the gold mining industry, these are commonly used performance measures and ratios, but do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to other issuers. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's underlying performance of its core operations and its ability to generate cash flow.

 "Average realized gold price per ounce sold" is calculated by dividing total gold revenue by the total gold ounces sold into the spot market before deductions from Sailfish.
