TUCSON, AZ, Nov. 21, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Liberty Star Minerals (“Liberty Star” or the “Company”) (OTCMarkets: LBSR) announces that it has engaged NISS Drilling Services to undertake diamond core drilling at Liberty Star’s Red Rock Canyon Gold Project (RRC) within the larger Hay Mountain Project (HMP) in southeast Arizona. Drilling is also planned at HMP Target 1 near the RRC. While the emphasis at Red Rock Canyon is gold exploration, both project areas may possess commercially important metals including rare earth minerals which are associated with porphyry copper-gold-moly bodies, and are well represented in the area from central Arizona to northern Mexico.

The planned program consists of diamond core drilling of about 250 feet per hole within the RRC at or near historic drill sites previously drilled and logged for the presence of gold. Deeper drilling is planned for a geophysically promising area within the adjacent Hay Mountain Target 1 area. The Hay Mountain Project has undergone substantial geoscientific investigation including airborne aeromagnetic imaging (ZTEM), 3-D modeling, and numerous geochemical studies.
