LIBERTY STAR RECEIVES FIRST PHASE ZTEM DATA
FROM GEOTECH LTD. ON BIG CHUNK SUPER PROJECT AK, S BLOCK
Tucson, Arizona - April 13, 2010 - Liberty Star
Uranium & Metals Corp. (the “Company,” LBSR: OTCBB) is pleased to announce that it has received the
full database for the 1D ZTEM geophysical data for all 1,256 line
kilometers (780.4 miles) in north-south lines spaced 250 meters
apart. The survey, undertaken over the Company’s Big Chunk Super
Project S Block in southwestern Alaska, covered 315.2 sq kilometers
(121.7 sq miles). To date, only one line has had 2D inversion
performed on it. That line crosses a circular EM feature consistent
with a typical porphyry copper system defined in original testing of
the ZTEM system in SE Arizona. This 2D model shows a typical low
responsive area, which could correspond to an ore mineral core zone
with a surrounding responsive cylinder representing a pyrite halo
typical of porphyry systems.
The
remainders of the lines are being processed to yield 2D models. In
addition to the ZTEMdata, the Company’s CEO and Chief Geologist, Jim
Briscoe, along with other geocontractors, willbe analyzing all existing
geologic, geochemical and geophysical data sets. The
Company’sgeological team will also continue working with the
geophysicists at Geotech Ltd. to
identify other circular features that might represent porphyry copper
alteration and metallization zoneswithin the Big Chunk Super
Project. More than four of these circular responsive zones have
already been identified and appear to be generally associated with
geochemical targets reported in NR 90.
Mr.
Briscoe comments,” The potential for large discoveries in southwestern
Alaska is well known. Liberty Star is aggressively seeking capable
joint venture partners to perform the extensive drilling program this
substantial set of targets requires.”

STATEMENT
Statements in this news release that are not
historical are forward looking statements. Forward looking statements
in this news release include: that the company believes that data
received to date could correspond to an ore mineral core zone with a
surrounding responsive cylinder; and that. Other circular features
might represent porphyry copper alteration and metallization zones.
Factors which may delay or prevent these forward-looking statements
from being realized include misinterpretation of data; we may not
locate or agree to terms with potential partners for their incurring of
exploration costs (which is essential to us), we may not be able to get
equipment or labor as we need it; we may not be able to raise
sufficient funds to complete our intended exploration or carry on
operations; that because we are behind in payments, our creditors could
seize our assets including our mineral properties; that weather,
logistical problems or hazards may prevent us from exploration; that
equipment may not work as well as expected; that analysis of data may
not be possible accurately and at depth; and that despite encouraging
data there may be no commercially exploitable mineralization on our
properties. Readers should refer to the risk disclosures outlined in
the Company’s recent 10-KSB and the Company’s other periodic reports
filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
