EAST MANHATTAN WASH

MAX returns values to 1.5 grams per tonne (1.5 ppm) Au in soils at East Manhattan Wash, Nevada, USA; gold mineralized area significantly expanded and open in three directions.

MAX Resource Corp. (TSX.V: MXR; OTCBB: MXROF; Frankfurt: M1D) has received assay results from three large volume soil sampling grids completed in May at the East Manhattan Wash gold project in Nevada. The current sampling program was designed to delineate the geometry of the native gold mineralization in three areas of interest. Significant values in the samples that were taken ranged from 0.05 ppm to 0.32 ppm gold with two of the zones being open in at least three directions.

MAX Resource Corp. completed an extensive bulk sampling program at it’s East Manhattan Wash (“EMW”) property in the Manhattan Mining District of Nye County, Nevada where the first bulk sample completed in March 2009 reported grades of 4.9 grams/ton gold and 1.2 grams/ton silver from a 793 pound sample taken at surface. Three soil sampling grids were completed in May 2009 at EMW, with 123 samples taken which included 3 standards and 2 double (two samples taken from the same material from one sample location) samples. The sampling was designed to delineate the geometry of the mineralization in three areas and will be followed up by an auger drill program to outline the native gold-bearing outcrop, subject to receipt of the necessary permits.
