07:00 AM EDT, 09/24/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Liberty Gold ( LGDTF ) , trading near 52 week highs, Wednesday reported results from its Phase 5B metallurgical program at the Black Pine oxide gold project in Idaho, confirming consistent, predictable gold recoveries across the primary ore bodies.

The results further supported a low-cost, run-of-mine heap leach processing flowsheet, the company said.

The results showed weighted average column leach gold extraction of 81.9% at an average head grade of 0.65 parts per million gold, with individual composites ranging from 52% to 94.5%. Weighted average gold extraction was 85.2% in the Rangefront Zone and 80.5% in the Discovery Zone.

Phase 5B composites exhibit the typical Black Pine leach result of greater than 80% of the eventual gold extraction achieved in under 10 days.

Feasibility level metallurgical work will be completed in the first half of 2026.
