Strengthens Brazilian Management Team
Vancouver, British Columbia –November 27, 2018 – Maxtech Ventures Inc. (CSE: MVT) (Frankfurt: M1N) (OTC: MTEHF) (“Maxtech” or the “Company”) announces it is moving forward with its Brazilian vanadium exploration initiatives.
Maxtech has existing vanadium claims in Northern Brazil and has engaged Daniel Geyerhahn Garcia, CEO Goldmen Resources Brazil to liaise with the in country team and to lead the exploration plan that will identify further potential vanadium mineralization deposits in other Brazilian areas of interest where the Company has established high-grade manganese assets. Mr. Garcia has be been an active CEO for 5 years in the mining sector focused on gold exploration. He has also worked in the State of Amazonas and Pará in other projects and organized teams specialized in the development of the Ouro Apuí and Tapajós project. He also has experience in Mineral Research, Green Field Projects, Licensing environmental, DNPM (ANM) procedures among others.
Maxtech is currently in discussions with several groups who are interested in certain joint-venture exploration opportunities within the Company’s vanadium claim portfolio, This strategy aims to minimize shareholder dilution and financial risk by generating prospects and then exploring them in joint-venture funded partnerships. The Company currently holds a diverse portfolio of global vanadium prospects and has numerous strategic relationships.
Maxtech’s two vanadium claims were submitted to the Departamento Nacional de Produção Mineral (DNPM) in Brazil on July 20th 2018. The total areas of interest are 3500 hectares and they are located in the eastern Bahia State of Brazil, which is roughly 250 km southwest of Salvador and 813 km northeast of the capital of Brazil in Brasilia near the city of Maracás.
The claims are next to the producing Maracás Menchen Vanadium Mine and the Campbell pit deposit being developed by Largo Resources, which is a Toronto-based strategic mineral company focused on the production of vanadium flake, high purity vanadium flake and high purity vanadium powder.
Peter Wilson said, “In the current mining climate, joint-venture partnerships will be key to success with global assets. Daniel being on the team in Brazil will be a tremendous asset to the Company’s vanadium acquisition and exploration strategy.”

Maxtech’s long term strategy is to build an international industrial minerals company to produce and sell manganese ore and processed Mn and vanadium into the global markets of Europe, North America and Asia.
The Company is focused on becoming a low-cost supplier of high grade manganese to global markets and vanadium.
The market for manganese is three-fold: in fertilizer, it is an essential nutrient in photosynthesis creating greener crops; for steel production in the creation of alloys; and in high-grade form it is becoming more prevalent in the battery market.
Initial Focus
The Company’s initial project in Brazil is a large land package with assayed high grade manganese samples of 51.4% to 55.9% on 4 mineral claims of + 40,000 hectares in the State of Mato Grosso, Brazil.
Exploration in the state of Mato Grosso was designed to test the character and expand the size of colluvium showings that had been identified on the properties. Surface exploration by the prospecting team uncovered unknown manganese bearing clasts and cobbles. The pitting program consisted of hand dug pits and the contents were sifted with manganese bearing clasts separated and collected leaving the soil and other clasts behind. The pits were filled in and the surface returned to a natural state. The selected samples in this program were grab samples from the pits and were screened for testing. The analyses was done by SGS Geosol Laboratorios LTDA., Belo Horizonte, Brazil.
Maxtech has entered into an agreement with Maringá Ferro-Liga to enable the joint evaluation, exploration and potential acquisition of project specific manganese assets in Brazil, and if justified, to engage in the development and mining of specific claims. Maxtech and Maringa will sign project-specific agreements between the parties prior to engaging in any operations on properties.The agreement shall have a term of 3 years and is non-exclusive.
Founded in 1946, Grupo Maringá now has over 2,000 employees with over USD $200 million in 2016 revenues. The Maringá companies are located in the states of Paraná and São Paulo. They produce sugar cane, sugar, ethanol, energy and manganese alloy. Maringá Ferro-Liga S.A. is a subsidiary of Grupo Maringá and is located in Itapeva, State of São Paulo. It is the second largest manganese ferroalloy producer in South America, producing high quality silico-manganese and high-carbon ferromanganese.

PROJECTS
Brazil
The Company’s First Project in Brazil is a large land package of assayed high grade manganese of 51.4% to 55.9% on 4 mineral claims of + 40,000 ha in the State of Mato Grosso, Brazil.
Manganese is primarily known for its uses in steel production, which makes up about 90% of the metal’s demand. However, it is less known for its important uses in batteries and particularly fertilizers.
Manganese is an essential micronutrient that is needed for plant and animal life. While it is needed in lesser amounts than the major fertilizer elements (N, P, K), the metal is essential for healthy growth of plants.
As the world’s largest net agricultural supplier, Brazil is the world’s breadbasket and agribusiness makes up almost a quarter of the country’s GDP.
Project – Mato Grosso
Project Overview
Maxtech Ventures has four claims totalling near 40,000 hectares in the Juina are in the Mato Grosso region of Brazil.
The Company’s exploration in the state of Mato Grosso was designed to test the character and expand the size of colluvium showings that had been identified on the properties. Surface exploration by the prospecting team uncovered unknown manganese bearing clasts and cobbles. The pitting program consisted of hand dug pits and the contents were sifted with manganese bearing clasts separated and collected leaving the soil and other clasts behind. The pits were filled in and the surface returned to a natural state.
Maxtech has begun the next phase of operation on its portfolio of claims in the Juina area of Mato Grosso by filing a “GUIA” application or trial mining license on one of the Company claims.
These claims contain numerous manganese occurrences found through reconnaissance prospecting to date. Analyses of the grab samples taken from surficial cobbles located within these claims returned values of 51.4% to 55.9% Mn. (as released May 4th). The analyses were performed by SGS Geosol Laboratorios LTDA of Belo Horizonte, Brazil.
In conjunction with the company’s strategic partner in Brazil, Maxtech has begun a new due diligence phase on additional claims with high-grade potential and a timeframe in which to ramp up a full mining plan in the Mato Grosso area.
Maxtech is planning to expand its Brazilian operation into other states of the country including Rondonia and Goias.
