(TSX: LGD; OTCQX: LGDTF) (“Liberty Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to report 34 additional Reverse Circulation (“RC”) drill results from the M and Back Range Zones at its Black Pine Oxide Gold Project (“Black Pine”) in southeastern Idaho. The results are from holes drilled in 2022 designed to expand and upgrade the current Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) and discover new higher-grade, near-surface oxide gold mineralization. M ZONE HIGHLIGHTS: 7.07 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”) over 18.3 meters (“m”) including 11.92 g/t Au over 10.7 m and including 46.7 g/t Au over 1.5 m in LBP813 1.17 g/t Au over 47.2 m from 54.9 m including 2.23 g/t Au over 15.2 m in LBP736 0.93 g/t Au over 38.1 m from 86.9 m including 2.35 g/t Au over 6.1 m in LBP823 Assay results from an additional 9 holes drilled in the M Zone in Q4 2022 include a high-grade intercept in LBP813, drilled near the western edge of the M Zone, which marks the potential discovery of a new, high-grade core within the mineralized zone. It includes a single 1.52 m interval of 46.7 g/t Au, which is the highest grade gold assay ever returned at Black Pine. This interval is a 100-metre step-out from previous drilling, well outside the MRE resource pit and is open to the west. These results are not included in the recently released MRE (see press release dated February 7, 2023). Additional offsets to this hole were drilled over the past 3 weeks and results are pending. BACK RANGE 3.10 g/t Au over 27.4 m from 50.3 m including 4.33 g/t Au over 18.3 m in LBP796 1.36 g/t Au over 15.2 m from 120.4 m including 3.79 g/t Au over 3.0 m in LBP774 0.78 g/t Au over 115.8 m from 15.2 m including 1.29 g/t Au over 25.9 m in LBP782 The Back Range Zone is the furthest known northwest extension of the more than 7 kilometre (“km”)-long Black Pine gold system. Assay results from 25 holes drilled in the Back Range Zone in 2022 have identified a new area of near-surface, high-grade oxide gold. Current extents of the Back Range mineralized zone are ~1 km2 and the high-grade area is open to the east and west. Jason Attew, President an...
