Maximus Resources (ASX:MXR) legal proceedings update

Maximus Resources Limited (ASX:MXR) has announced the resolution of legal proceedings related to the objection against the application of Special Mining Lease M15/1908-G (SML) in Western Australia. The company, as the registered holder of Mining Lease M15/1101 (ML), had objected to the conversion of Special Prospecting License P15/6390-S (SPL) into SML by an individual prospector. However, a settlement agreement has been reached between Maximus and the SPL Holder, resulting in the surrender of SPL and withdrawal of the SML application. Consequently, Maximus can now proceed with exploration and development activities at the 8500N gold deposit and 8500N paleochannel, which were previously restricted by the SPL.
