Max CEO, Brett Matich commented on the company’s success in 2021.

“It’s been an amazing journey in 2021, highlighted by the URU and CONEJO discoveries. URU is to be Max’s first drill program in Colombia, marking the area’s first significant drilling event since the discovery of Cerrejón, the largest coal mine in South America and the basis for much of the critical infrastructure in the Cesar basin.

In addition, copper prices broke multi-year highs in 2021. Max shareholders are well positioned in 2022 to take advantage of the drilling phase, unlocking the true district-scale potential of Max’s CESAR project.”

Max Resource is a copper and precious metals exploration company focused on projects in Colombia and Peru.
