Since the discovery of gold in the early 20th century, the Red Lake District has produced over 30 million oz. gold.

CEO Mark Bristow said the copper increase plus its gold production was to boost total production to 6.8 million gold equivalent oz. by that date.

The update showed a significant inferred mineral resource of 1.4 billion tonnes at a copper-equivalent grade of 0.67%.

The updated PEA gives Gabbs an after-tax net present value with a 5% discount of $292.2 million and an internal rate of return of 17%.

This was the highest-grade intercept to date.

After a hot start to the year, gold’s performance has somewhat subdued in recent months despite the usual supporting factors staying intact, namely high inflation and a bear stock market.

Proceeds of the financing will be used by Liberty for exploration within the Great Basin of United States.
