Liberty Gold Corp. announce that it has received from the United States Forest Service the final approval for an amendment to the current exploration Plan of Operations at the Black Pine Oxide Gold Project, Idaho. This approval authorizes exploration activities on USFS lands where the Company holds mineral title but was not previously permitted to drill.

Additionally, the Company has added a Director of Regulatory Affairs and Sustainability to advance mine permitting with the federal and state agencies. This new permit amendment from the USFS expands the current area for permitted exploration rom 24.7 square kilometres ("km2") by 51% to 37.3 km2. This will allow the Company to explore seven new target areas where the prospective and permissive gold host-rock carbonate sequence is known to occur at shallow depth beneath sandstone cover rock.

In addition, the amended POO further directs the Bureau of Land Management to begin the process of issuing a Hardrock Prospector Permit over contiguous, highly prospective, areas. The HPP would open a further 7.1 km2 of ground to approved exploration activities. The Company has additionally staked 46 unpatented mining claims in the southwest of the project area, totaling 3.3 km2.

These claims are contiguous with the existing project area and cover the projected southern extension of the prospective middle plate host rock carbonate sequence, identified by field & structural mapping and soil geochemistry. The newly acquired ground expands the total project area to 69.3 km2. Field operations have begun at Black Pine in earnest, with the first reverse circulation drill rig expected to arrive mid-June and a second arriving in mid-July.

The first phase of planned exploration drilling is budgeted at 20,000 meters and will focus on new discovery in the seven outlying target areas with the key objective of growing the current Black Pine resource base which already exceeds 3 million ounces.
