8.01 Other Events
On
February 13, 2024, Liberty Star Minerals (“Liberty Star”) or
the “Company”) (OTC Markets: LBSR) is pleased to announce we have released a
new updated field report for our initial holes at Hay Mountain, prepared by James Bryce, Chief Geologist working with the Company.
Mr.
Bryce offers his observations of the two holes so far drilled on the Hay Mountain property:
“Hole
one, (HM-117 from the previous company plan) was collared on the center of the magnetic high and over the conductor noted by the ZTEM
survey. The depth to bedrock on that pad was 108’ after which the drill collared into limestones of the Morita formation. The presence
of Morita at this elevation indicated that that block of rock in the valley has been faulted down with a vertical offset of more than
800’. Given the vertical offset, the decision was made by the company to deepen the hole by 500’ and the overall program
by 1000’.
At
1354’ the drill encountered the carbon rich Colina Formation. Portable XRF analyses of this core showed elevated levels of copper,
lead and zinc as well as increasing potassic alteration down hole. Potassic alteration is an important indicator of porphyry mineralization.
Near the base of the hole, several small quartz veins were observed with minor pyrite selvages. The hole was stopped at 1500’,
the casing left in place and capped for future re-entry.
Hole
two (HM-001) was collared 0.6 miles east of hole one on Colina limestone outcrop showing polymetallic leakage textures at surface. These
rusty patches show elevated lead, zinc, molybdenum and sometimes copper. Despite the collar of this hole being almost the same elevation
as that of hole one, this gave the company the advantage of beginning the hole around 1350’ deeper into the stratigraphy than hole
one.
At
420’ depth, the hole encountered the Horquilla Formation which hosts many of the copper deposits in the region. As the hole approached
1500’, the decision was made by the company to deepen the hole by 1000’ due to the presence of increasing alteration and
the presence of minor sulfides and extensive carbonate vein stockworks.
At
2016’ a marble front was encountered with a thickness of 41’. This was very exciting as it implies the presence of a heat
source nearby at depth. Immediately below that unit, the hole encountered intense chemical (propylitic) alteration indicative of a hydrothermal
system generated from a porphyry body below. This was followed by alternating beds of marble and highly altered shales and siltstones.
A
150’ thick diorite sill was intersected at 2067’. This sill clearly post-dates the alteration based on the contacts with
the surrounding rocks. The sill contains, locally, up to 1% chalcopyrite as fragments indicating that these fragments were derived from
a rock unit the magma passed through at depth.
Below
the diorite sill, the intense propylitic alteration and marble bedding continues to depth. The decision was made to add another 500’
to the hole based upon the presence of sulfides in marble as narrow replacement bands and disseminations within the altered sediments.
The
hole currently sits at just under 3000’. Based upon the author’s experience in drilling other porphyry deposits around the
world, it was his strong recommendation to continue the hole to depth based on the intense alteration and increasing presence of sulfides
in the drill core. The casing is in place and the company plans to reduce to NQ core size and continue the hole.” (February 10,
2024)
All
geochemical sampling was conducted under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Geologist, James Bryce, and the chain of custody
from the drilling site to the independent sample preparation facility, ALS Geochemistry in Tucson, Arizona was continuously monitored
per industry best practices. Liberty Star will report analytical results in due course.

Liberty
Star Field Report for Initial Holes at Hay Mountain, SE Arizona
TUCSON,
AZ–(February 13) – Liberty Star Minerals (“Liberty Star” or the “Company”) (OTCMarkets:
LBSR) updates its wholly owned Hay Mountain property in southeast Arizona. The Hay Mountain
property may possess commercially important metals associated with porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum mineralized bodies, well represented
in the area from central Arizona to northern Mexico.

About
Liberty Star Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (LBSR: OTCQB), d/b/a Liberty Star Minerals, is an Arizona-based mineral exploration
company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and development of mineral properties in Arizona and the southwest USA. Currently the
company controls properties which are located over what management considers some of North America’s richest mineralized regions
for copper, gold, silver, molybdenum (moly), and associated metals. The Company’s premiere property is the Hay Mountain Project
(exploration stage) for porphyry copper, gold, moly and other commercially important minerals. Specific targets have been selected
to explore for near surface and deep-seated ore bodies, of which there are numerous analogs nearby. Contiguous with the primary Hay Mountain
porphyry exploration target, and part of the overall Hay Mountain Project, is an increasingly attractive area of exploration stage gold
mineralization denominated Red Rock Canyon. Red Rock Canyon exhibits what we believe are extensive, promising hydrothermal associated
gold-bearing structures that are documented in historical public and Company records. View numerous geoscientific reports on our website.
The Hay Mountain Project is in Cochise County (southeast) Arizona, USA.

Regulation
S-K 1300 Matters On October 31, 2018, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K (“Regulation
SK-1300”) to modernize the property disclosure requirements for mining registrants, and related guidance, under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All registrants are required to comply with Regulation
SK-1300 for fiscal years ending after January 1, 2021. Accordingly, the Company must comply with Regulation SK-1300 for its fiscal year
ending January 31, 2022. Regulation SK-1300 uses the Committee for Mineral Reserves International Reporting Standards (“CRIRSCO”)
based classification scheme for mineral resources and mineral reserves, that includes definitions for inferred, indicated, and measured
mineral resources. Liberty Star is an “Exploration Stage Issuer” as defined in Subpart 1300. It currently has no exploration
results, mineral resources or mineral reserves to report, accordingly, no information, opinions or data included in the website or in
any public releases includes any information or disclosures regarding exploration results, mineral resources or mineral reserves as defined
in Regulation SK-1300. As a result, the Company is not required, at this time, to obtain or provide a Technical Report Summary as defined
in Regulation SK-1300. U.S. Investors are cautioned not to rely upon or assume for any purpose that any part of the mineralized real
property of the Company in these categories will ever be converted into inferred, indicated, and measured mineral resources or probable
or proven mineral reserves within the meaning of Regulation S-K 1300.
UNLESS
OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY STATED ON THE FACE OF ANY SUCH INFORMATION, NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS PUBLIC RELEASE IS, NOR DOES IT PURPORT TO BE,
A TECHNICAL REPORT SUMMARY PREPARED BY A QUALIFIED PERSON PURSUANT TO AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF SUBPART 1300 OF SECURITIES
EXCHANGE COMMISSION REGULATION S-K.
