Calgary, Alberta – TheNewswire - February 17, 2021 - MXT (CNSX:MXT.CN) reports that the SHAMAN development is ahead of schedule and under budget.

Medxtractor originally planned for completion of Phase 1 by April but hard work has resulted in early success allowing for acceleration of the reference database build. Jim Durward, President, states: "In conjunction with the hard work of our people driving the SHAMAN development significantly ahead of schedule, our continuing tight cash flow management has kept our expenditures to date significantly less than expected. Our first record collection phase, named "RRP3", is scheduled to open for participation on February 22, 2021. The RRP3 is the first of a series of reference databases that will form the overall Validated database that underlies the SHAMAN machine-learning prediction engine.
