Mako, Senegal

Overview

Mako, Senegal

The Mako Gold Mine, located in eastern Senegal, is a modern operation with potential life extension through several near-mine satellite deposits.

Mako is owned and operated by Resolute’s Senegalese subsidiary, Petowal Mining Company S.A. Resolute has a 90% interest in Petowal and the Government of Senegal holds the remaining 10%.

The Mako processing plant is carbon-in-leach and has a greater-than 2.1Mtpa of installed capacity and comprises a crushing circuit, an 8MW SAG Mill and gold extraction circuit.

Mako continues to deliver consistently strong results and cash flows. Open pit mining activities ended in June 2025. The operation is now processing stockpiles until the end of 2027. Resolute is working towards extending the mine life at Mako through the development of satellite deposits, including Tomboronkoto and Bantaco, known at the Mako Life Extension Project (MLEP) which are within trucking distance of the mill.
