Benz Terminates Agreement to Acquire Fox Automotive Switzerland AG
Vancouver, January 7, 2019 - Benz Mining Corp. (TSXV: BZ) (the "Company" or "Benz") announces that it will not proceed with the acquisition by Benz of all of the issued share capital of Fox Automotive Switzerland AG ("Fox") and has terminated the letter of intent with Fox. It became apparent that Fox was not in a position to provide the necessary public disclosure information required for a reverse takeover transaction in a timely manner.
