Corporate Updates

MAX EXPANDS NORTH CHOCO TO INCLUDE TWELVE HISTORIC GOLD MINES AND FOUR

SIGNIFICANT GOLD ZONES

Vancouver B.C., June 25, 2019 – MAX RESOURCE CORP. ( “Max” or the “Company”) (TSX.V: MXR; OTC:

MXROF; Frankfurt: M1D 1) is pleased to report that the North Choco Property area has been expanded by

strategic staking to 950sq. km and now encompasses twelve historic gold mines and four gold anomalies that

are collectively spread over an area of 80 sq. km. The North Choco Gold-Copper Project is located 80 km SW of

Medellin, Colombia. Max is acquiring North Choco, through the pending acquisition of Andagueda Mining Pty.

Ltd. (see news release of May 8, 2019). Highlights include:

• The newly added and adjacent south area (380 sq. km) encompassing 11 historic gold mines and 3

historic gold anomalies including; Anomaly A at 8 km long and up to 9 km wide; Anomaly B at 11 km

long and up to 1.5 km wide; and Anomaly C South at 2 km long and up to 3 km wide;

• The adjacent eastern area (70 sq. km) containing 1 historic gold mine and 2 historic gold anomalies;

Anomaly C at 3 km long and up to 6 km wide; and Anomaly D at 4 km long and up to 1.5 km wide;

• The Nuevo Chaquiro ( 6.1Moz gold & 3.95Mt Cu ) deposit is located 18 km north of the east property

and 32 km north of the south property northern boundaries ; Max cautions investors that results from

nearby properties are not necessarily representative of the mineralization hosted at North Choco; and

• Max consultants are currently reviewing data from a recent cloud-stitched Longwave InfraRed (LWIR)

survey which covered both the south and eastern properties, including the 4 anomalous gold zones.

“We are very excited with the North Choco expansion, as g old is an important part of our exploration

portfolio,” Max CEO , Brett Matich, stated. “We continue to focus on our land expansion strategy within the

Choco and North Choco region where mining companies have pursued this opportunistic mineral belt for over

a decade,” he continued.

North Choco Gold-Copper and Choco Gold-Platinum

North Choco Gold-Copper (950 sq. km) is contiguous to properties held by AngloGold Ashanti (NYSE: AU) and

Continental Gold (TSX: CNL) and includes rights to exploration and exploitation over a 72.5 sq. km mining area.

Max’s first exploration objective was to confirm the anomalous zones discovered by AngloGold by chip

sampling the rich gold tunnels which confirmed gold and copper including 155g/t gold, 2.8 % copper and

551pmm c obalt over 0.4m (see news release of May 30, 2019) . The Company also discovered an area of

mineralized granodiorite assay results including 80.44 g/t gold , 1.82% copper and 264ppm cobalt over 0.3m

(see news release of June 12, 2019). Further assay results identified a significant newly discovered 37.5 sq. km

of anomalous copper which is open in all directions (see news release June 5, 2019). Assays are pending from

sampling a second area located 20 km south of the 37.5 sq. km anomalous copper zone.

North Choco is 47 km SW of AngloGold’s 2005 Nuevo Chaquiro copper porphyry discovery , which hosts an

inferred resource of 604Mt at 0.65% copper and 0.32g/t gold with a contained metal content of 4 million tons

of copper and 6 million ounces of gold. This is one of five known porphyry centres within a 15 sq. km area. The

Nuevo Chaquiro Resource is disc losed in the AngloGold presentation “Discovery and Geology of the Nuevo

Chaquiro Cu-Au (Ag-Mo) Porphyry Deposit”.

Max cautions investors that results from adjacent and nearby properties are not necessarily representative of

the mineralization hosted at North Choco.

Choco Gold-Platinum (2,140 sq. km) is located adjacent to and SW of North Choco Gold -Copper and covers or

is adjacent to historic production of 1.5Mozs gold and 1.0Mozs platinum (1906 – 1990). Free gold was

observed from hard-rock conglomerates (see news release January 30, 2019) , which has confirmed the model

that originally, the entire system was essentially in -situ, the higher grades are interpreted to lie above the

hard-rock base approximately 10 to 20m from surface . Surface concentrate highlights include 340g/t gold and

113g/t platinum (see news release April 16, 2019). Currently test work continues on accessing the fine gold

within the hard -rock. Mapping and sampling of the newly discovered hard -rock exposures that underlie the

extensive areas of historic production is now underway.

About Cloud-Stitched Longwave InfraRed (LWIR) Surveys

Max Resource conducted a cloud-stitched long -wave infrared (LWIR) survey over the area of the 4 historic

anomalies. Historically, satellite imagery has been hindered because of year- round cloud cover. This survey

sourced multiple bands through the gaps in the clouds over a 20 -year period and stitched the imagery

together.

LWIR analysis, through proprietary processing of Aster satellite data, has the ability to map or identify, through

reflectance spectroscopy against a set of known standards, mineral distribution over extremely large areas

covered by vegetation and shallow cover. The ground -penetrating nature of infrared radiation in the long -

wave bands allows viewing of various mineral spectra in the first 30 to 60 centimetres of the earth's surface.

About Max Resource Corp.

Max is a mineral exploration company focused o n the development and expanding its landholdings in the rich

Choco mineral belt of Colombia. The C ompany has established significant exploration infrastructure and local

community support for the Choco Gold-Platinum project, located 100 km south of Medellin, which covers, or

is adjacent to, historic production of 1.5 million ounces of gold and 1.0 million ounces of platinum. The North

Choco Gold-Copper project lies adjacent to the Choco Gold -Platinum project. The Gachala copper project is

located 60 k m east of Bogota. The Company is led by a seasoned management team with a record of

significant discovery and exploration success.
