MAX Resource Corp. Identifies 4KM Cobalt Anomaly -­‐ Gachala Copper IN Colombia

Exploration Programs Sampling & Geoscience Results

MAX  RESOURCE  CORP.  IDENTIFIES  4KM  COBALT  ANOMALY  -­‐  GACHALA  COPPER  IN  COLOMBIA  

Vancouver  B.C.,  June  14,  2018  –  MAX  RESOURCE  CORP.  (“MXR”  or  the  “Company”)  (TSX.V:  MXR;  OTC  

Pink:   MXROF;  Frankfurt:   M1D)  is   please  to   announce   it   has   filed  two  additional   mineral   license  

applications  covering  a  further  3,893  hectares  within  the  Gachala  sedimentary  copper  basin  of  Eastern  

Colombia,  approximately  60kms  east  of  Bogata  (Refer:  Gachala  Project  Area  map,  page  2).  

Highlights  

• 4-­‐km-­‐long  cobalt  anomaly  on  the  western  side  of  the  new  license  applications.  

• Applications  are  contiguous  to  historic  sampling  which  identified  a  25-­‐km  strike  length  of  copper  

enrichment  with  grades  ranging  from  0.6%  to  13%  copper.  

The  Colombian  Geological  Survey  has  identified  a  4-­‐kilometre-­‐long  cobalt  anomaly  on  the  western  side  

of   the   two   new   license   applications.   The   Company’s   in   country   geologist   is   currently   researching   the  

Colombian   databases   for   details   on   the   cobalt.   This   metal   is   of   extreme   interest   to   the   Company   as  

cobalt  is  one  of  the  key  accessory  metals  for  sedimentary  copper  deposits.  

A   Colombian   exploration   team,   lead   by  Mr.  Carlos  Gaviria   will   commence   surface   survey   exploration  

programs  next   week   to  locate   and   identify   bedrock  copper  mineralization  and   follow   up   the   cobalt  

anomaly   to   identify   targets   for  trenching   and   diamond   drilling  throughout   the   7   license   applications.  

Further  ground  will  be  added  to  the  Gachala  land  package  as  exploration  results  warrant.  

MXR’s  100%  owned  Gachala  license  applications  now  total  13,277  hectares  and  cover  an  aggregate  total  

of  39-­‐line  kilometres   of   the  250km   by   120km   belt   of  Devonian   through   Cretaceous   age   rocks   in   a  

geological   setting   conducive   to   hosting   sedimentary  copper   deposits,  believed   to   be   analogous   to   the  

Zambian   Copper   Belt   of   Africa.   (Source:   Rodriguez   and   Warden   (1993).   Overview   of   some   Colombian  

gold   deposits   and   their   development   potential.   Mineralium   Deposita   Volume   28,   pages   47-­‐57).  The  

Gachala  mineralization  appears  to  be  localized  at  the  contact  between  the  Devonian-­‐Permian  red  beds  

overlying  Cretaceous  reducing  black  shales,  one  of  the  settings  typical  of  these  copper  deposits.    

The   two   new   license   applications  are   contiguous   to   the   three   of   the   earlier   license   applications  

southwest  of  the  Cano  Negro  area,  where  historic  sampling  has  identified  a  25-­‐kilometre  strike  length  of  

copper  enrichment  with  grades  ranging  from  0.6%  to  13%  copper.  (Source:  C.  Rodriguez  and  A.J.Warden.  

1993  Overview  of  Some  Colombian  Gold  Deposits  and  Their  Development  Potential.  Mineralium  Deposita  

Volume  28,  pages  47-­‐57.)  The  Cano  Negro  area  appears  to  lie  on  the  eastern  limb  of  the  32  kilometre  

“Anticlinal  Montecristo”.  

Brett  Matich,  MXR  Chief  Executive  Officer,  commented:  “MXR  is  building  its  project  area  and  continues  

to  identify  sedimentary  copper/cobalt  hosted  mineralization  within  the  Gachala  region.”
