Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. ('Liberty Star Minerals') ('Liberty Star'?or the?'Company') 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 be economic gold grades. The Liberty Star geochemical sampling results affirm these findings.
