Overview
Liberty Star is a leading US mining exploration company. • Holds thousands of square miles of copper, gold and
uranium claims in Arizona, Alaska and Mexico. • Is a publically traded company (LBSR: OTCBB, LBVN:
Frankfurt) with a 20 year history.
Liberty Star holds the largest claim in Alaska’s history, called Big Chunk, which portends to hold the largest copper/gold reserve in the world. • Northern Dynasty Corp. has invested $450M in a claim
(Pebble) adjacent to Big Chunk and is ready to start mining operations on the world’s largest copper deposit.
Liberty Star has over four hundred uranium claims in Arizona.
Liberty Star is seeking international investment partners.

Caldera: A Collapsed Volcano A Caldera is formed by a
collapsed volcano. Calderas are large, round
formations that contain ore deposits along the edges, like a string of pearls.
Liberty Star’s CEO, Jim Briscoe, has explored 37 calderas around the world. • Liberty Star’s Big Chunk
and Northern Dynasty’s Pebble claims are on the same Alaskan caldera.
• Liberty Star’s copper claims in Arizona are also part of a caldera.
Volcanic activity causes molten minerals to rise to the surface.

Big Chunk & Pebble Caldera
Liberty Star has spent more than $12 million on Big Chunk to identify 6-12 geologically, geochemically, geophysically indicated targets that may hold mineral deposits the size of the adjacent Pebble Deposit,
the largest unmined store of mineral wealth in the world.
6
Pebble mineral resource “measured and indicated” estimates are 55 billion pounds of copper ($236B), 67 million ounces of gold ($100B),
and 3.3 billion pounds of molybdenum ($50B).

Arizona/Mexico Copper Deposits
One of the richest mineral areas in the world.

Walnut Creek/Tombstone
Tombstone Porphyry Center consists of 33 federal lode mining claims over a projected covered porphyry copper mineral center located near the town of Tombstone, Arizona, one of the richest mineral areas of this kind in the world.
The mineral claims are owned by JABA US Inc. in which two of Liberty Star’s directors are owners.
Through geochemical sampling and computer modeling, Liberty Star discovered a compelling drill targets for a very large limestone hosted porphyry copper replacement deposit.
If exploration is successful, mining projected for this target would be underground and could produce high grade copper, moly, gold, silver, lead, and zinc.
This property is adjacent to the old historic Tombstone Consolidated mines and the main targets are defined by sufficient technical work to allow an immediate start to drill testing.
We are ready to start scout drilling of primary target sites.

Arizona & Mexico Properties
Bonanza Hills project is targeting high-grade gold with by-product silver. Bonanza Hills comprises 54 Alaska State quarter section mining claims, covering 13.5 square miles, which are 100% owned by Liberty Star.
East Silver Bell project is adjacent to the highly successful Asarco Silver Bell mine that produces 700,000 tons of copper monthly. Jim Briscoe was once the chief geologist at Asarco Silver Bell. Liberty Star currently holds options to explore 26 standard Federal lode mining claims covering a previously unrecognized porphyry copper center near Tucson, AZ.
El Papago Project lays on a 12+ square mile alteration zone about 10 miles southwest of the million ounce Santa Gertrudis gold deposit and 20 miles southeast of the million ounce San Francisco gold deposit in northern Sonora, Mexico.
Liberty Star is seeking partnerships to exploit these projects.

Uranium Breccia Pipes Owned by Liberty Star on the Arizona Strip
Liberty Star owns the largest share of breccia pipes in the world.
431 standard federal lode mining claims
13
Breccia Pipe Uranium The Arizona Strip (by the Grand
Canyon) has the world’s largest concentration of uranium ore in breccia pipes.
A breccia pipe, also referred to as a chimney, is a mass of broken fragments of minerals cemented together by matrix, often in a cylindrical shape, from several feet to several hundred feet in diameter.
The US Geological Survey anticipates that Arizona collapse breccia pipes will be “the major source of future uranium production”
Liberty Star is the world’s largest holder of breccia pipe claims.

Funding Requirements Phase 1: $50M
• Scout drilling of target claims and prepare economic feasibility reports
4 to 12 target sites at Big Chunk, Alaska.
3 target sites at the Tombstone Caldera, Arizona.
Phase 2: $200M per site
• Drill prime target and conduct engineering, environmental and socio-economic studies.
Joint Venture partner: 50%/50% split on revenues and profits at Big Chunk, Walnut Creek and East Silver Bell, or issuance of Class-B (non-voting) stock
Liberty Star is seeking international partners and agents.
