TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Aug. 8, 2012) - Liberty Silver Corp. (LSL.TO)(LBSV) (\"Liberty Silver\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a binding agreement (the \"Agreement\") with Primus Resources, L.C. (\"Primus\") to acquire approximately 100 acres located adjacent to the former Trinity Silver mine on the Company's Trinity property in Nevada (the \"Hi Ho Properties\"). The Hi Ho Properties are the only acreage not controlled by Liberty Silver or its joint venture partner Renaissance Gold Inc. (\"Renaissance\") on the Trinity land package. <\/p>\n
Under the terms of the Agreement, Liberty Silver will provide cash consideration of US$150,000 and issue 3,000,000 common shares of Liberty Silver stock to Primus. In addition, Primus will be granted a 2% net smelter royalty (\"NSR\") on future production from the Hi Ho Properties. The total consideration for the acquisition of the Hi Ho Properties will be applied to Liberty Silver's expenditure commitment under its earn-in agreement with Renaissance, upon acceptance by Renaissance, pursuant to the applicable area of interest provisions. With the addition of the Hi Ho Properties payment, Liberty will have contributed in excess of 85% of its required US$5 million expenditure commitment to earn its 70% interest in the project. Pursuant to the terms of its earn-in agreement with Renaissance, the Company has until March 29, 2016 to incur the balance of its expenditure commitment and, in addition, produce a bankable feasibility study in the following year. <\/p>\n
\"We are extremely pleased to reach an agreement that will result in our mineral claims being included with Liberty Silver's land package at the Trinity Silver property. We have closely monitored their progress to date on the property and we agree with their approach for its development, which we feel has enormous upside potential. Their on the ground mining team is very strong and has a great understanding of the existing resource and the multiple drilling targets independent of the resource zone,\" said Jim Marin, President of Primus Resources, L.C. <\/p>\n
\"The Hi Ho Properties are an important addition to our future development plans at Trinity,\" stated Geoff Browne, Chairman and CEO of Liberty. \"Historic data, combined with current modeling indicates that the Trinity deposit extends into the Hi Ho Properties, significantly increasing our current resource potential and the projected economics for bringing Trinity back into production.\" <\/p>\n
