CESAR attracts one of the world’s leading copper producers
Max has entered a collaboration agreement with a major copper producer, contracting Fathom Geophysics
Fathom is conducting surveys to identify additional stratabound copper-silver mineral horizons at CESAR
This combines the expertise of Poland’s AGH, who have a long history of cooperation with KGHM, the largest copper producer in Europe and the world's second largest silver producer
Max's ability to attract the interest of a major mining company and AGH reflects the technical merit the CESAR copper-silver project
Max is a mineral exploration company with a successful management team, focused on advancing its copper, silver and precious metals landholdings in the rich mineral belts of Colombia, and it’s EBAY Palladium landholdings in Quebec, Canada. Both have potential for the discovery of large-scale mineral deposits that can attract major partners.
CESAR is located along a historic 120 km long copper-silver belt in NE Colombia and is very similar to KGHM’s Kupferschiefer in Poland, KGHM is the world’s 8th largest copper producer and the world’s largest silver producer. There is established mining operations, railway, shipping ports, townships, roadways and more. Max’s exploration strategy is to unlock the potential of the CESAR district as the world’s up and coming copper and silver producing region.
EBAY Palladium is located 30-km SE of Matagami in the Abitibi Region of Quebec, Canada. It is underlain by the Archean Bell River Complex, a layered mafic intrusion measuring 65-km by 15-km and 5-km thick.
CHOCO is located 120-km SW of Medellin Colombia, within a historic platinum-gold mining belt.
CESAR consists of the 1.8-km long AM North discovery open in all directions containing unprecedent values of 24.8% copper + 230 g/t silver over 4m by 1m panel.
Further, the AM South discovery located 40-km SSW along the same mineralized trend with structures totaling over 5-km of strike. Rock chip sampling from 0.1 to 25-metre intervals returned highlight values of 5.4% copper and 63 g/t silver.
AM South and AM North structures are similar to large sub-horizontal sheet, with portions exposed at surface. Max is conducting rock chip sampling along creeks/valleys that cut through the mineralized structures to identify continuity of thickness, strike, grades and potential size, similar to what is achieved from scout drilling.
EBAY Palladium drilling intersected 1.90 g/t palladium-platinum over 3.0m from 80.5m to 83.5m and further drilling discovered a new zone with 600m of strike, 120m deep, 6.7m to 31.1m wide, open in all directions, highlight values of 2.52 g/t palladium-platinum. Subsequent aero-magnetic survey extended the target zone to 4.8-km of strike. Max is currently planning an exploration and drilling program.
CHOCO lies within a district with historical production of 1.0Mozs of platinum and 1.5Mozs of gold (1906-1990) by Choco Pacific Mining. In addition, recent field work in 2019 by Max resulted in concentrate values of 114 g/t platinum and 341 g/t gold (refer to news release April 16, 2019).
"Ongoing exploration continues to build confidence in CESAR as a significant discovery of regional scale. The Company is working towards a 3D model to assess the potential size of the CESAR copper-silver project."
