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 premiere 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 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.

Liberty Star Minerals maintains a presence on Facebook, Twitter (Liberty Star/LBSR) and Linkedin. From time to time Liberty Star will make material disclosure through these social media outlets in compliance with SEC Regulation FD.

Cochise County, Arizona

The Tombstone Project (TP) hosts Liberty Star’s premiere multi target property: The Hay Mountain Project. The TP initially consisted of 33 unpatented federal lode mining claims over a projected covered porphyry copper mineral center in Cochise County, Arizona. In 2011 and 2012 more USBLM claims and Arizona Mining Exploration Permits were added after the discovery of a large multimodal anomaly over a large covered porphyry copper mineral center within the larger TP area. Currently, the TP, including the Hay Mountain Project entails a 42 square mile area of interest.  The entire claim area has undergone  formal review by SRK Consulting. SRK produced technical reports (technical reports per USSEC) which  recommended further exploration for copper, gold, moly and other metals.

Liberty Star contracted Geotech Ltd. to run ZTEM electro magnetic surveys over the TP  in 2013, starting with the Hay Mountain claim area.

Among Geotech’s findings:

• There are as many as 10 meaningful targets within the Hay Mountain Project area
• Hay Mountain contains a major anomaly centered on the geochem anomaly reported by Liberty Star

From the Geotech Report Executive Summary:

“The Hay Mountain Property is mainly underlain by a thick sequence of Paleozoic quartzite, limestone and siltstones, but potentially hosts buried porphyry copper deposits at structural intersections and under basin-fill formations. There is additional potential for polymetallic carbonate-hosted replacement deposits (CRD), as well as shallow chalcocite blanket porphyry type deposits and also skarn type porphyry copper deposits. Previous soil and vegetation geochemical surveys have identified a coincident Au-Pb-Cu anomaly and larger Mo-halo in the center of the property. The objective of the ZTEM surveys is to identify favourable magnetic and resistivity signatures related to potentially more deeply buried porphyry copper, CRD/skarn and chalcocite replacement deposits at Hay Mountain. The Magnetic surveys have determined that Hay Mountain hosts a large dominant magnetic high that lies buried below the Paleozoic sediments is centered over the Liberty Star geochemical anomaly and remains open to the south…As many as ten (10) magnetic anomalies have been defined.” (12/11/2013)

Liberty Star presents  in- depth geoscientific reports & geochemical assay results bringing together years of data compilation over the Hay Mountain Project. Ground & airborne studies indicate the potential for a large sediment and porphyry hosted copper, gold, and moly ore body of the same type as the nearby Bisbee deposit and other commercially important ore bodies throughout southeast Arizona.

Land Position

The Hay Mountain Project is located 6.5 miles southeast of Tombstone where we hold Arizona State Mineral Exploration Permits (MEPs), and  Federal Mining Lode Claims covering 16,888.42 acres, accessible by Hwy 80, Davis Rd. and Wild West Road. The Red Rock Canyon Gold Prospect is contiguous with and immediately north of Hay Mountain Project drill Target 1.
