Liberty Star Minerals Announces Strategic Corporate Alignment of Mining Claims

New Structure Enhances Clarity, Asset Differentiation, and Partnership Opportunities

TUCSON, AZ, Nov. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Liberty Star Minerals (“Liberty Star” or the “Company”) (OTCQB: LBSR) today announced a strategic realignment of its mining claims and mineral assets. This initiative is designed to enhance operational clarity, differentiate high-value assets, and expand opportunities for strategic partnerships across the Company’s diversified mineral portfolio.

Key Highlights of the Alignment:

1. Centralized Oversight of All Mineral Assets
   All mineral holdings will now be consolidated under Liberty Star Hay Mountain Holdings LLC, strengthening organizational clarity and long-term strategic focus.
2. Earp Ridge Mines, LLC
   The multi-mineral claims historically known as Hay Mountain Target 1 & 2 will now be structured within, our wholly owned subsidiary, Earp Ridge Mines, LLC. This dedicated entity will bring sharper focus to the development of the region’s diverse mineral potential. Additional Claim areas within the larger Hay Mountain Holdings LLC will be similarly organized as needed.
3. Red Rock Mines, LLC
   The Company’s world-class gold target will be housed within Red Rock Mines, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary created to advance and highlight the exceptional gold resource opportunity.
   
   

“Our goal has always been to clearly define and elevate the unique strengths of our mineral properties,” said Pete O’Heeron, Chairman of Liberty Star. “By establishing these self-contained business units, we can more effectively collaborate with partners who have targeted interests in specific mineral opportunities. This structure not only improves operational efficiency but also enhances our ability to unlock value across our robust asset base.”
