Below is an excerpt from News Release 113:
TUCSON, Ariz.–November 2, 2011–Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (The “Company”) (OTCBB: LBSR) is pleased to announce that it has completed 80% of the collection of rock, soil and vegetation (biogeochemical) samples over approximately 621 sample sites surrounding and over the Hay Mountain claim area, one of three or more target areas comprising the Company’s Tombstone Porphyry-Precious Metals Project. All rock and soil samples have been collected, and vegetation sample collection is ongoing and will be completed in about 20 days or by about November 20.
Samples are collected by experienced Liberty Star staff. Storage, shipment and treatment of these samples follow Canadian Instrument 43-101 guidelines with chain of custody records and quality assurance/quality control duplicate and control assay samples inserted regularly into the sample stream by MEG Inc –a sample preparation lab run by our experienced geochemist and then on to a certified analytical laboratory in Vancouver BC, Canada. The approximate 621 sample sites will generate three samples each except where rock or soil or vegetation is not available thus yielding approximately 1,863 samples. Each of these samples will be assayed for 63 elements generating about 117 thousand analyses. These assays will be processed by various computer programs into graphs and maps showing elemental concentrations. We know from Dr. John Guilbert’s Porphyry Copper Model (Lowell- Guilbert model) that various elements are zoned around the porphyry center, like bulls eyes in a rifle target. The various elements move upward with upwardly moving ground water bringing them along and plants absorb the water depositing elements in their stems. Thus when we collect and analyze the plant stems we can detect metals at significant depths exceeding a thousand feet or more. With our geochemical results we can predict where the porphyry center is, as well as peripheral lead, zinc, silver, manganese and gold zones.
