Drilling Contractor Secured for C de Baca Uranium Property, New Mexico

TSX-V Symbol: MXR OTC BB Symbol: MXROF Frankfurt: M1D

MAX Resource Corp., (TSX-V: MXR - News; OTCBB: MXROF - News; Frankfurt: M1D - News) is pleased to announce that it has contracted with Stewart Brothers Drilling Company of Milan, New Mexico for the drilling of its C de Baca Uranium property in Socorro County, New Mexico in May, 2007.

The drill program will be comprised of 14 drill holes and has been designed to allow MAX to be able to confirm the historic drilling data available on C de Baca in order to enable a resource estimate in compliance with National Instrument 43-101. MAX is fully funded to carry out this program.

The C de Baca Project is wholly-owned by MAX and comprises 108 uranium claims previously explored by Occidental Minerals, an Occidental Petroleum company, in the 1980’s. Occidental Minerals drilled 216 holes, with the best drill hole intersecting 7.5 feet of 0.20% U(3)O(8) at a depth of 291 feet, and identified an exploration target of 1.67 million tons grading 0.18% U(3)O(8) (approximately 6 million lbs of U(3)O(8)(x)). This information is taken from data MAX acquired on the project in June 2006 which includes drill logs and thickness maps from the original work done by Occidental Minerals that define only the eastern limits of the mineralized system, which may be open to expansion.

The property is located 14 miles north of the town of Magdalena and 100 miles south of Albuquerque, New Mexico. It has the potential for in-situ uranium mining methods, a technique with a tiny footprint. In situ recovery (”ISR”), also known as solution mining, involves leaving the ore where it is in the ground and using non-toxic liquids which are pumped through it to recover the minerals out of the ore by leaching. As a consequence, there is little surface disturbance and no tailings or waste rock generated. According to the World Nuclear Association, 21 percent of the world’s uranium production came about through ISR mining in 2004.

This news release has been reviewed by Mr. Clancy J. Wendt, P. Geo, a Qualified Person as that term is defined under National Instrument 43-101.

(x) Note: This report by Occidental Minerals was not NI 43-101 compliant
and predates NI 43-101. The historic information provided is for
reference only and the reader should not infer or assert that the
information is correct, reliable, relevant or accurate and should not
be relied upon. Max Resource intends to upgrade any historic resource
figures to comply with NI 43-101 reporting standards on completion of
drilling.
