Liberty Star Presents Fire Assay Results from the Red Rock Canyon Gold Project
Liberty Star Minerals (LBSR) has released fire assay results from its Red Rock Canyon Gold Project in Arizona. Twenty-eight samples submitted to ALS Laboratories revealed significant gold occurrences, with one sample grading approximately 68 gpt and seven others above 0.5 gpt. These findings confirm previous results and suggest a potentially larger area of gold presence than initially estimated. The company plans further evaluation via drilling, geological mapping, and Induced Polarization surveys to assess the project's economic viability.

TUCSON, AZ, Nov. 08, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Liberty Star Minerals (“Liberty Star” or the “Company”) (OTCMarkets: LBSR) updates its wholly owned Red Rock Canyon Gold Project (RRC, the Project) within southeast Arizona. The Company is pleased to present fire assay results for the presence of gold from twenty-eight samples sent to ALS Laboratories in Tucson.
This set of rock-chip samples was collected from RRC areas with promising grades of gold collected from historic drilling efforts in addition to newly located jasperoid outcrops. The assay results show gold occurrences within the historic RRC area and gold occurrences 2 to 2.25 miles (approx. 3.21 km to 3.62 km) away from the approximate center of the previously surveyed area. As reported in the Company’s November 2 release, samples of jasperoid outcrops by historic drill holes have been assayed with 1 sample grading approximately 68 gpt/2.18 opt* with 7 additional samples reporting grades above 0.5 gpt/0.016 opt. These new 28 assays affirm previous findings and indicate the area of gold occurrence may be larger than originally posited.
According to the Technical Report: Red Rock Canyon Gold Property Cochise County, Arizona, based upon the historic information, the RRC Project may possess commercially important gold deposits on its Mineral Exploration Permits (MEPs) since the historic drill holes contain intercepts that would today be economic gold grades. The Liberty Star geochemical sampling results affirm these findings.
States Liberty Star CEO Brett Gross: “The June 2021 technical report called our Red Rock Canyon Gold Project ‘a property of merit that warrants further evaluation.’ That is exactly what we are doing. Rock chip geochemical results keep affirming the historic results showing attractive gold grades. A drilling program, detailed geologic mapping, and Induced Polarization (IP) surveys are part of our efforts to see about potential deposit definition.”

About Liberty Star Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (LBSR: OTCQB), d/b/a Liberty Star Minerals, is an Arizona-based mineral exploration company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral properties in Arizona and the southwest USA. Currently the company controls properties which are located over what management considers some of North America’s richest mineralized regions for copper, gold, silver, molybdenum (moly), and associated metals. The Company’s properties are the Hay Mountain Project (exploration stage) for porphyry copper, gold, moly and other commercially important minerals. Specific targets have been selected to explore for near surface and deep-seated ore bodies, of which there are numerous analogs nearby. Contiguous with the primary Hay Mountain porphyry exploration target, and part of the overall Hay Mountain Project, is an increasingly attractive area of exploration stage gold mineralization denominated Red Rock Canyon. Red Rock Canyon exhibits what we believe are extensive, promising hydrothermal associated gold-bearing structures that are documented in historical public and Company records (see associated press and social media releases for more information). The Hay Mountain Project is in Cochise County (southeast) Arizona, USA.
