MAX Power Mining Corp. (CSE: MAXX; OTC: MAXXF; FRANKFURT: 89N) announced that shareholders approved all resolutions at its Annual General and Special Meeting held April 17, 2026, including the appointment of Tony Van Burgsteden to the board of directors. A total of 31,363,104 common shares, representing approximately 24.8% of outstanding shares, were voted in person and by proxy, supporting the reappointment of D&H Group LLP as auditors, setting the board at six directors, electing six nominees, and approving the company’s shareholder rights plan. The company also granted 200,000 stock options and 200,000 RSUs to a director under its existing equity incentive plan.
This shareholder endorsement arrives at a pivotal time for MAX Power as it advances its flagship Lawson Discovery in Saskatchewan, which represents Canada’s first-ever subsurface Natural Hydrogen system confirmed through deep drilling with data validated by three independent labs. The company has built dominant district-scale land positions across Saskatchewan with approximately 1.3 million acres (521,000 hectares) of permits, plus an additional 5.7 million acres under application, covering prime exploration ground prospective for large-volume accumulations of Natural Hydrogen.
Beyond Natural Hydrogen, MAX Power holds a portfolio of properties in the United States and Canada focused on critical minerals. These are highlighted by a 2024 diamond drilling discovery at the Willcox Playa Lithium Project in southeast Arizona, 100%-owned by MAX Power’s U.S. subsidiary. The dual focus on Natural Hydrogen and critical minerals positions the company to benefit from the global shift toward decarbonization and electrification.
The appointment of Tony Van Burgsteden brings additional expertise to the board, as the company navigates the technical and regulatory complexities of emerging energy sectors. The shareholder rights plan approval also signals confidence in the company’s strategic direction and governance practices.
MAX Power is committed to responsible exploration and development practices that prioritize environmental stewardship, meaningful community engagement, and strong corporate governance. For more information, visit the company’s newsroom at https://ibn.fm/MAXXF.
