    Clancy Wendt, VP Exploration of MAX, states "We are very impressed by this intersection of the primary zone and slightly hydrothermally altered mineralization in this first deep hole at Majuba Hill. The increase in gold and molybdenum mineralization at depth and the long intersections of mineralization add more evidence that Majuba Hill is an extensive copper/silver/gold porphyry system that is highly prospective for the development of a bulk-tonnage open pit deposit. This discovery allows us to concentrate on defining the supergene system located above this zone, with drilling in 2012 to test the extension of high grade oxide mineralization from the Copper Stope to the southeast along the ridge above hole MM-20."

    A map showing drilling locations from the 2011 exploration program at Majuba Hill is available on our web site at www.maxresource.com.

    Majuba Hill is the site of numerous past producing mines, with historic production reported of 12% Cu (Mason Valley Copper, 1918) and silver grades up to 40 oz/t Ag. Majuba Hill encompasses 2,568 acres of surface and mineral rights that includes patented lode mining claims. The property is easily accessed via 23 miles of well-maintained dirt roads leading from U.S. Interstate 80, and lies 30 miles northwest of Coeur d'Alene's Rochester silver mine, which contains a NI 43-101 compliant Measured and Indicated Resource of 263.9 million tons grading 0.46 oz/ton Ag and 0.004 oz/ton Au. (The Coeur Technical Report on the Rochester Mine is available on SEDAR). For more detailed information on the Majuba Hill copper/silver project, including maps showing the results of soil sampling and the drilling completed to date, please visit our web site at www.maxresource.com.
