(TSXV: MXR) (OTC PINK: MXROF) (FSE: M1D2)  (\"Max\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to report QEMSCAN and assay results of two bulk samples extracted from AM NORTH located within the CESAR stratabound copper-silver project in NE Colombia (Table 1-2, Fig. 1-2).Two bulk samples #756 (46 kg) and #766 (39 kg), were extracted approximately 1.8-km apart, along the same mineralized horizon (AMN-1). Samples were submitted to ALS Global Metallurgy Laboratory; each sample was crushed to pass 6mesh. Single sub-sample was removed and submitted for head assays of Cu, Ag, Fe, S.Assay Methods#756#756#766#766LaboratoryBulk sampleBulk sampleBulk sampleBulk sample30 kg30 kg40 kg40 kgQEMSCAN10.5% copper3.2% copperALS Global Metallurgical Lab. in KamloopsChemical9.4% copper79 g/t silver3.5% copper29 g/t silverALS Global Metallurgical Lab. in Kamloops Table 1. Head assay resultsAssay results were obtained from chemical and QEMSCAN analyses correlate reasonably well with initial chip channel sampling. A sub-sample was also submitted from each sample for a QEMSCAN Bulk Mineral Analysis to provide mineral composition and copper deportment information.Percentage of Copper Bearing Mineral in CopperMineral#756#766Malachite/Azurite82.057.5Chalcocite0.429.3Copper Bearing Silicate17.19.5Covellite0.33.4Copper Bearing Iron Oxides0.20.1Pseudomalachite (Copper Phosphate)0.10.0Chalcopyrite<0.1<0.1Bornite<0.1<0.1Tennantite/Enargite0.00.1TOTAL100100 Table 2. QEMSCAN Bulk Mineral AnalysisThe main minerals identified via QEMSCAN are copper oxides and chalcocite followed by copper bearing silicates and covellite. As expected, near surface oxidized facies copper minerals are more common, explaining the significant amount of malachite. The presence of chalcocite (80% copper by weight) in sample 766 indicates some sulphide copper mineral replacement of oxides at shallow depths. The first AM North bulk sample (#756) was obtained in the vicinity of the initial 4m by 1m rock panel sample that assayed 24.8% copper + 230g/t silver and the second bulk sample (#766) was collected close to initial 1m rock chip channel samp...
