The thicker marks look like air or gas bubbles,if you push on them and they sink in that is what the other 2 marks will be.

I feel this is from Feeder Finger Damage. Note how the steps are affected. It may have scraped deep into the die this making the large gouges we see in that bay that also affected the incuse steps on the die. Leaving the three sets of damage on the steps.
