TUCSON, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Liberty Star Uranium & Metals Corp. (???Liberty
Star??? or the ???Company???)(OTCQB:
LBSR) announces that its geophysical contractor Geotech Ltd. (???Geotech???)
Aurora, Ontario, Canada completed a ZTEM geophysical??survey??on September
20, 2013.
ZTEM (Z Axis Tipper Electromagnetic system) is a fixed wing or
helicopter borne survey method measuring electromagnetic changes because
of geologic features in the area of the survey. Geotech???s computer
technology and sensitive measuring equipment enables detection and
modeling of the shape of metallic mineral bodies at depths of up to
approximately 2,000 meters below the surface.
The survey was conducted over Liberty Star???s Hay Mountain Project as
part of exploration work for the delineation to a depth of about 2,000
meters (about 6,000 feet) of a porphyry copper, gold and other metal
system suggested by previous geochemical surveys of the area and the
recommendations contained in SRK Consulting???s NI 43-101 style report
undertaken in 2011.
The Hay Mountain ZTEM survey consisted of 432.73 kilometers (268.88
miles) @ 200 meters and 400 meters line spacing, and approximately 8
meters between samples (readings) along each line.
With the delivery of the ZTEM interpreted data Liberty Star geologists,
headed by Company CEO and Chief Geologist James A. Briscoe, can begin
the work of combining the Geotech findings??with the Company???s many
geologic and geochemical??maps??into GIS (Geographic Information Systems,
ESRI ??? computer maps) that can undergo further analysis that will lead
to specific targets for a phased drilling program to begin as funding
allows.
