Liberty Star Board Chair Pete O'Heeron & Director Gerardo King Interviewed by Steve Darling of Proactive Investors Limited
TUCSON, AZ, April 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Liberty Star Minerals ( 'Liberty Star' or the 'Company' ) ( OTCQB: LBSR ) is executing on a vision that aligns with the long-term strategic needs of the United States. In a recent conversation with award-winning broadcaster Steve Darling of Proactive Investors, Board Chair Pete O'Heeron and Director Gerardo King shared why critical mineral development is no longer optional—it's essential. Pete O'Heeron recently returned from Washington, D.C., where he held high-level discussions with Congressional offices, including the teams of Senators Ted Cruz and John Cornyn, as well as Representatives Brian Babin and Paul Gosar. The message was simple but urgent: the U.S. must take bold action to secure its own future. 'We are at an inflection point,' said O'Heeron. 'From semiconductors to satellites, from electric vehicles to national defense, critical minerals are the backbone of modern civilization. We cannot outsource our future. Liberty Star is building for a future where the United States leads—not follows—in the global supply chain for strategic resources.' Director Gerardo King noted, 'Rising copper and gold prices are not a blip—they're a beacon. The opportunity is now. Government backing, combined with private investment, will create a resilient domestic supply chain and unlock long-term shareholder value.'

(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 that 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 property (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 property, 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.

'Sentiment continues to wane among investors, consumers and businesses as economic concerns and economic policy uncertainty takes its toll,' said Bret Kenwell, U.S. investment analyst at eToro. 'Until there's more certainty on the tariff and macro front, sentiment and confidence remain vulnerable.' As investors navigate daily market changes, uncertainty remains a persistent factor. Insider trading tends to attract attention during these periods, as purchases of company stock by executives may suggest optimism about the company's future. However, insider selling doesn't necessarily signal a lack of confidence—it could simply be for personal financial reasons or to diversify holdings.
