MGX Minerals Announces Partnership with National Inflation Association on Heino Gold Deposit Discovery

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 28, 2020 / MGX Minerals Inc. ("MGX" or the "Company") (CSE:XMG)(FKT:1MG)(OTC:MGXMF) is pleased to announce that MGX has engaged GRA Enterprises LLC in association with the National Inflation Association ("NIA") to advance investor knowledge of the recently re-discovered Heino Gold Deposit in British Columbia. NIA was launched during the 2008/2009 global financial crisis with a goal of helping educate the public to the truth about monetary policy and how the Federal Reserve's manipulation of interest rates leads to price distortions, malinvestment, asset bubbles, and income/wealth inequality. NIA provides its members with priceless information about the global economy and financial markets that the mainstream media refuses to discuss. NIA advocates for a return to the gold standard and provides analysis of the precious metals market while profiling publicly traded gold and silver mining/exploration companies that could be positioned to thrive during an inflationary environment GRA Enterprises LLC will be paid $30,000 USD for its investor relations and advisory services for a term of six months.

As announced July 24th, 2020, six 0.5kg to 1kg, samples were taken at the 2030 Portal of the Heino-Money Pit Zone at the Heino Gold Deposit during the SRK Consulting (Canada) Site Visit July 8th, 2020. Samples were shipped under direct chain of custody to ALS Canada Ltd. in Kamloops, British Columbia, crushed and pulverized, with further shipment to ALS Canada Ltd, North Vancouver, BC under custody of ALS Canada Ltd. The samples have undergone gold analysis by fire assay and gravimetric finish up to 6 ounces per tonne Au are reported. Previous silver, lead, and zinc assays from press release issued July 20 are included. Bulk Samples are of selected mineralized material and are not representative of the deposit as no mineral resource estimate at any level of confidence has been completed:
