About Liberty Star: Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (LBSR: OTCQB), doing business as Liberty Star Minerals, is a mineral exploration company based in Arizona. The company focuses on acquiring, exploring, and developing valuable mineral properties in Arizona, USA. Currently, Liberty Star controls two wholly owned properties situated in one of North America’s most mineral-rich regions, specifically in the historic Tombstone mining district. These properties are strategically located in areas known for copper, gold, silver, molybdenum, and other associated metals.
The company’s flagship project is the exploration-stage Hay Mountain Project. This project focuses on discovering porphyry copper, gold, molybdenum, and other commercially important minerals. Surface studies, along with the company’s 2024 diamond core drilling program, support the presence of a deep-seated copper porphyry system, with several analogs nearby that suggest high potential.
In addition, the Hay Mountain property hosts the Red Rock Canyon Gold Property, an increasingly promising site for near-surface gold mineralization. Ongoing geologic sampling has yielded high-grade gold samples, with some reaching as high as 107.5 grams per ton (g/t), highlighting the area’s exceptional potential.
