    Max Resource Reports 3.7-km High-Grade Copper-Silver Zone at CONEJO, Northeastern Colombia

    Vancouver B.C., November 3, 2021 – MAX RESOURCE CORP. (“Max” or the “Company”) (TSX.V: MXR; OTC: MXROF; Frankfurt: M1D2) is pleased to report high-grade assay results at CONEJO, located along the CESAR North 90-kilometre-long copper-silver belt, within the wholly-owned CESAR project in North Eastern Colombia (refer to Figure 1). 

    Highlights:

    Highlights 2021:

    The CONEJO mineralization is hosted in a stockwork within igneous host rock and is associated with the presence of epidote. Observed minerals include: chalcocite, native copper, cuprite and copper oxides. 

    “The presence of high-grade copper in both the stratabound horizon and within the igneous hosted stockwork cutting the copper horizon suggest CONEJO to be a significant stand alone copper target capable of hosting a substantial copper deposit,” commented Max CEO, Brett Matich.

    "In addition, the Max technical team has commenced a targeted exploration program over the 48-km² URU zone, located 30-km south of CONEJO," he continued. 

    "In 20 years, BloombergNEF says copper miners need to double the amount of global copper production, just to meet the demand for a 30% penetration rate of electric vehicles from the current 20Mt a year to 40Mt. Max shareholders are well positioned to take advantage, with significant potential for district-scale discoveries throughout the CESAR basin," he concluded.

    Table 1. Rock assays >2.0% copper collected from the 3.7-km high-grade zone (refer to Figure 2 to 8). Max cautions investors that panel and representative grab sampling can be selective and may not be representative of mineralization at CESAR.

    Max interprets the CONEJO sediment-hosted stratabound copper-silver mineralization in the Cesar basin to be analogous to both the Central African Copper Belt (CACB).   Almost 50% of the copper known to exist in sediment-hosted deposits is contained in the CACB, including Ivanhoe Mines Ltd (TSX: IVN) 95-billion-pound Kamoa-Kakula copper deposits in the Congo.   

    Source: Central African Belt Descriptive models, grade-tonnage relations, and databases for the assessment of sediment-hosted copper deposits with emphasis on deposits in the Central Africa Copperbelt, Democratic Republic of the Congo and Zambia by USGS 2010. Kamoa-Kakula by OreWin March 2020. Max cautions investors that the presence of copper mineralization of the Central African Copper Belt are not necessarily indicative of similar mineralization at CESAR.                        

    QUALITY ASSURANCE

    All CESAR rock chip samples are shipped to ALS Lab's sample preparation facility in Medellin, Columbia. Sample pulps are then sent to Lima, Peru, for analysis. All samples are analyzed using ALS procedure ME-MS41, a four-acid digestion with inductively coupled plasma finished. Over-limit copper and silver are determined by ALS procedure OG-62, a four-acid digestion with an atomic absorption spectroscopy finish. ALS Labs is independent from Max.

    Max uses standard chip and channel sampling where possible, but also relies on composite grab sampling. Max considers composite grab samples to be representative but cautions investors that individual grab samples can be selective and may not be representative of continuous mineralization at CESAR.

    CESAR COPPER-SILVER PROJECT IN COLOMBIA – OVERVIEW

    CESAR lies along the copper-silver rich 200-kilometre-long Cesar Basin in northeastern Colombia. This region enjoys major infrastructure resulting from oil & gas and mining operations, including Cerrejon, the largest coal mine in Latin America, now held by global miner Glencore (refer to Figure 1 and 5).

    Figure 8. CESAR Project location

    Due to the district-scale and copper-silver prospectivity of the Cesar Basin, Max has implemented a multi-faceted exploration program for 2021:

    Advanced Drill Core Analysis and Modelling: ongoing interpretation of seismic sections and analysis of historical drill holes are all being integrated into our structural modelling of the Cesar Basin, in collaboration with Ingeniería Geológica Universidad Nacional de Colombia (“IGUN”) in Medellín (January 7, 2021 NR).

    Geochemical and Mineralogical: research programs by the University of Science and Technology (“AGH”) of Krakow, Poland. AGH bring their extensive knowledge of KGHM’s world renowned Kupferschiefer sediment-hosted copper-silver deposits in Poland to the CESAR project.

    Geophysical: Fathom Geophysics is interpreting seismic data, funded by the Company in collaboration with one of the world's leading copper producers.

    Proprietary Field Exploration & Techniques: Max’s in-country exploration teams continue to target new copper-silver stratabound mineralized zones.
