Black Pine Oxide Gold Project, Idaho - Liberty Gold's Drill Success Signals Resource Growth Potential at Rangefront

LGD · Price
Executive Summary
- Liberty Gold reports high‑grade oxide gold intercepts from its 2025 Rangefront drill program, including 1.27 g/t Au over 22.9 m (LBP1099) and 0.62 g/t Au over 53.3 m (LBP1124).
- The results reinforce continuity of mineralization around the existing Resource pit and support a planned conversion of >250,000 oz of resources to reserves, potentially expanding the Black Pine project to a 2‑3 Moz resource base.
- Approximately 50 additional RC holes (~12,000 m) are slated for 2025 to further delineate the Rangefront zone and advance feasibility studies.
Key Details
- Intercepts:
- LBP1099 – 1.27 g/t Au over 22.9 m (outside Resource pit).
-
LBP1124 – 0.62 g/t Au over 53.3 m (outside Reserve pit).
-
Program Scope:
- First 28 RC holes (6,506 m) drilled in Rangefront; all show economic oxide gold mineralization.
-
Two RC rigs and one core rig currently operating; a fifth RC rig arriving mid‑September for hydrological work before moving to resource conversion drilling in Q4.
-
Resource Impact:
- Existing Preliminary Feasibility Study (PFS) lists 1,619,000 indicated oz and 296,000 inferred oz Au in Rangefront (pre‑2024 drill).
-
New drilling expands the zone laterally, potentially adding >250,000 oz to reserves once converted.
-
Future Drilling Plan:
- ~50 additional RC holes (~12,000 m) planned for 2025 at Rangefront.
-
Additional drilling in Discovery Zone and CD Pit (10 holes pending assay).
-
Metallurgical Highlights:
-
Weighted average gold extraction from column leach testing: 86.9 % on oxide material.
-
Strategic Significance:
- Rangefront identified as a “strategic starter pit” for initial mining, with proximity to the proposed heap‑leach pad and potential to unlock ~1 km² of new exploration area.
-
Management envisions a 2–3 Moz resource opportunity at Black Pine, larger than the Discovery Zone.

Notable Quotes
- Jon Gilligan, President & CEO: “The latest assay results at Rangefront underscore the exceptional potential of the wider Rangefront‑Leach Pad area to drive meaningful resource and reserve growth… it is becoming a very attractive starter location for initial mining operations.”
