Vancouver, May 1, 2019 - Max Resource Corp. (TSXV: MXR) (OTC: MXROF) (FSE: M1D1) (the "Company" or "Max") is pleased to report that it has successfully submitted twenty-one mineral applications, expanding the Company's Choco Gold-Platinum Project (Choco) area to 2,140 sq. km.

• This additional 383 sq. km area falls within the 1,000 sq. km area where the Longwave Infrared (LWIR) geophysical survey anomalies appeared to have a strong correlation with the gold bearing conglomerates, these applications were submitted, as recent field work has been confirming this correlation;

• The additional area also covers potential extensions of the 100 sq. km historic Big Flat mineralization.

Max CEO, Brett Matich, commented: "Our on-going exploration success continues to extend the limits of the gold bearing conglomerates, necessitating the expansion of the property package." He continued, "The recorded Choco Pacific historic production from Rio Cajon and Rio Sipi appears to support the continuation of the conglomerates through to this area."
