Liberty Star Receives Positive Independent Evaluation of Red Rock Canyon Gold Project, Cochise County, Arizona

TUCSON, AZ, June 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Liberty Star Minerals ( or the ) () received an independent evaluation of its wholly owned (RRC) in southeast Arizona. Independent Consulting Geologist , finds that “the entire land package…has a great potential for hosting both gold and base metals mineralization since it appears to contain an entire porphyry system from intrusive up to boiling epithermal veins at surface.” Also, Liberty Star Minerals “is strongly urged to seek out one or two well-funded JV partners in the form of junior exploration companies” to further develop the gold prospect at Red Rock Canyon.

In late April Bryce toured the RRC over the course of three days and spent a day reviewing previously gathered geological reports, including drill hole logs. Among his observations were gold bearing jasperoid structures:

“The jasperoids trend NW/SE and dip sub-vertically. The lenses contain brecciated fragments of limestone which have been completely altered by silica flooding. They exhibit boiling textures which indicates that the entire epithermal sequence remains in place… PXRF readings taken while in the field showed grades up to 0.8 oz/t within the fragments, but no detectable gold within the matrix of the veins. This may indicate the presence of a rich skarn or carbonate replacement deposit at depth.”

Company CEO Brett Gross is pleased to find Bryce’s evaluation affirms the : “Jim’s is consistent with our assessment based on recent observation and historical findings. Historic drilling at Red Rock Canyon reports intercepts of economic gold values over a 45 foot thickness. To move the project ahead, he suggests conducting small scale metallurgical testing for the purpose of helping us look at valuation. Expanding and enhancing our database is part of moving our RRC project forward.”

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 largest property is 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 Hay Mountain porphyry exploration target, and part of the overall Hay Mountain Project, is an increasingly attractive area (approx. 6600 acres) 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.
