TUCSON, AZ, June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Liberty Star Minerals (“Liberty Star” or the “Company”) (OTCQB: LBSR) is pleased to announce the launch of a state-of-the-art 3D induced polarization survey (“3D IP Survey,” “Survey”) at its wholly owned Red Rock Canyon Gold Project (RRC), part of the Hay Mountain Project in southeast Arizona. The Survey aims to be the next initiative to unlock the immense potential of RRC, which is believed to host commercially significant metals associated with epithermal gold mineralization, a hallmark of the mineral-rich region, known as the gold copper belt spanning central Arizona to northern Mexico.
Liberty Star has engaged Jim Fink, PhD, PE, RLS, Geological Engineer, Geophysicist, and Chief Technical Officer at Sub Rosa Monitoring LLC, a leading Tucson-based geophysical survey company. Together they will conduct a 3D Induced Polarization (IP) survey across approximately 10 acres of the Company’s most promising gold-bearing outcrops, aligned with historic drill hole locations. By calibrating the survey to known gold intercepts from legacy data, the geology team aims to trace the distribution of pyrite-both at the surface and shallow depths-using a pole-to-pole array configuration. This technique will provide an effective means of mapping gold-bearing pyrite across significant portions of the RRC project area. The resulting data will help Liberty Star identify and prioritize high-value exploration targets near previously drilled zones where gold has already been encountered. These interpretations will guide the prioritization of future drill targets in proximity to known mineralized intercepts.
“The 3D IP survey calibration will show us where to drill by lighting up the gold at depth extensively” comments Jay Crawford, Liberty Star’s Vice President of Field Operations.

“This cutting-edge technology allows us to survey depths up to 500 feet, representing a significant leap forward from traditional methods. Combined with our recent fieldwork analyzing near-surface geochemical data, the 3D IP Survey will refine our drill targets and focus exploration on the most promising areas of the RRC property. We are excited to follow up this survey with additional drilling, including a targeted drill program.”
