MAX Resource Corp. (TSX VENTURE:MXR)(OTCBB:MXROF)(FRANKFURT:M1D) has commenced
core drilling at the Majuba Hill copper/silver project in Nevada. Drilling will
test a ridge of high grade copper/silver oxide mineralization sampled by
Minterra Resources in 2007 that returned grades of up to 7.72% Cu and 174 g/t Ag
in outcrop and has been intersected at depth by MAX during drilling in 2012 (332
m @ 12 g/t Ag and 0.13% Cu in hole MM-21). MAX has now mapped the high grade
samples taken by Minterra and they highlight a zone 250 meters across in outcrop
that will be tested during this drill program. A map indicating the location of
this drilling is available on our website at www.maxresource.com. The Minterra
samples highlighted on this map include:




Sample Number         Cu             Ag
---------------------------------------
                                       
- MHR-160           2.9%         32 g/t
- MHR-157           3.0%         38 g/t
- MHR-158          4.07%         32 g/t
- MHR-159          2.95%         29 g/t
- MHR-25           7.72%          90g/t
- MHR-26           2.16%         53 g/t
- MHR-145          4.16%        174 g/t
- MHR-27           1.42%       19.6 g/t



MAX's drill hole MM-21 is located approximately 250 m southeast of the middle
portal of the past producing Majuba Hill mine, where MAX drilling in 2011
intercepted high grade copper/silver supergene oxide mineralization over long
intervals that included:




--  Hole MM-07: 50.3 m of 50.8 g/t Ag, 0.31 g/t gold and 0.31% Cu 
--  Hole MM-06: 96.0 m of 39.2 g/t Ag and 0.57% Cu, including 44.2 m of 71.0
    g/t Ag, 0.15 g/t Au and 1.14% Cu 
--  Hole MM-03: 42.7 m of 37.5 g/t Ag and 0.38% Cu 



A map showing drilling locations from previous exploration programs conducted by
MAX at Majuba Hill is available on our website at www.maxresource.com. 


Twenty nine (29) rock select, chip, and grab samples were taken from outcropping
mineralization, historic prospect pits, and an underground adit in this area to
be drilled at Majuba Ridge. Values obtained ranged from 80 ppm Cu and 2.65 ppm
Ag to 7.72% Cu and 174 ppm Ag. This sampling was completed in 2007 by Buster
Hunsaker, P.Geo, who is a "qualified person" as that term is defined under
National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed the technical information in this
news release. 


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 Mining'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 website at www.maxresource.com.
