ABOUT LIBERTY GOLD
Liberty Gold is focused on exploring for and
developing open pit oxide deposits in the Great Basin of the United
States, home to large-scale gold projects that are ideal for
open-pit mining. This region is one of the most prolific
gold-producing regions in the world and stretches across Nevada and
into Idaho and Utah. We know the Great Basin and are driven to
discover and advance big gold deposits that can be mined profitably
in open-pit scenarios.

Note to United States Investors Concerning
Estimates of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources
The information in this MD&A, including any
information incorporated by reference, and disclosure documents of
Liberty Gold that are filed with Canadian securities regulatory
authorities concerning mineral properties have been prepared in
accordance with the requirements of securities laws in effect in
Canada, which differ from the requirements of United States
securities laws.
Without limiting the foregoing, these documents
use the terms “measured resources”, “indicated resources”,
“inferred resources” and “mineral reserves”. These terms are
Canadian mining terms as defined in, and required to be disclosed
in accordance with, NI 43-101, which references the guidelines set
out in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum
(the “CIM”) – CIM Definition Standards, adopted by the CIM Council,
as amended. However, these standards differ significantly from the
mineral property disclosure requirements of the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in Regulation S-K
Subpart 1300 (the “SEC Modernization Rules”) under the United
States Securities Act of 1934, as amended. The Company does not
file reports with the SEC and is not required to provide disclosure
on its mineral properties under the SEC Modernization Rules and
will continue to provide disclosure under NI 43-101 and the CIM
Definition Standards.
