LAS VEGAS, Aug. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --First Liberty Power Corp. (FLPC) (the "Company") is pleased to announce an update on the Company's properties, and also our expanded plan for the exploration, development, mining and refining of strategic industrial metals in the USA.

Currently, we have a 95% option interest in two lithium brine properties; these properties are in a stage of development ranging from intermediate to advanced exploration with an ultimate goal to extract and refine Lithium brine. This type of deposit is globally recognized as the most economic and productive means of producing lithium. Lithium and its compounds have several fundamental commercial applications, including heat-resistant glass and ceramics, greases, high strength-to-weight alloys, pharmaceuticals, thermoplastic, air treatment, and, most importantly for growth, lithium ion batteries.

Our first property, Lida Valley with 58 Placer Claims / 9,280 acres, has completed three exploration stages to date. We have identified a deep-seated basin structure with high potential lithium enrichment, together with conductive zones which are an indicator of lithium-bearing brines. Our latest acquisition, Smoky Valley with 70 Placer Claims / 11,200 acres, has two exploration stages complete, with basin structure already demonstrated, and geo-magnetics planned through 2012. Both properties are in close proximity to the only US based producing lithium operation - Chemetall Foote which has been producing for over 40 years at a rate of approximately 5,000 LCE tonnes per year. Once the exploration stages on the properties are successfully completed and the properties are proven for production, both operations will be consolidated and the drill program to prove lithium brine presence will begin. First Liberty will work to implement a production plan immediately thereafter.

First Liberty has begun to expand its scope beyond lithium into other minerals of critical strategic importance. As part of our expanded strategic focus, one of First Liberty's core objectives is to ensure a strong US domestic supply of mineral elements that are critical to current and emerging technologies. It is widely recognized that the United States must work to increase the domestic supply of several critical elements to ensure security, particularly in alternative energy. These elements include Vanadium, Uranium, Antimony, Graphite, Tin, Lead, and certain Rare Earth and Platinum Metal Group elements. With this in mind, we are seeking to complement our current mid and long-term exploration programs with near term production opportunities to meet this high demand.

CEO Don Nicholson emphasized in a statement, "As the Company moves into a high growth phase, I would like to stress the importance of our two Lithium brine properties for our mid-term production plans, and we are pleased that they are advancing successfully through the resource verification stages. Furthermore, we are working diligently on investigating and evaluating properties that contain the critical elements we see as being extremely important for our further growth. The leadership of this Company has targeted 2012 as a priority period to acquire near and mid-term production properties that have a benchmark of delivering high-percentage returns to our investors and shareholders."

About UsFirst Liberty is a Nevada based mineral exploration company with a focus on the exploration, development, mining and refining of strategic industrial metals in the USA. With a primary focus on lithium exploration, it is our vision to also significantly contribute towards ensuring a domestic supply of those mineral elements that are critical to current and emerging technologies. We will continue assembling a portfolio of properties and interests in several key areas, ranging in developmental to advanced stage exploration to production ready.

PHOENIX, Aug. 21, 2102 /PRNewswire/ -- Liberty Gold Corp. (OTCBB: LBGO; "Liberty Gold" and/or "the Company") is pleased to announce positive results following initial sampling and processing for visible gold on the Company's Domestic Portfolio. The Company has a 100% interest in the 794-acre Domestic Portfolio mining operations claim block, situated in the Cerbat Mountain range, roughly 75 miles southeast of Las Vegas and 15 miles northwest of Kingman in northwestern Arizona's Wallapai Mining District.

Initial samples were collected from 5 different locations within the Domestic Portfolio holdings to determine whether, once processed, visible gold was present at 3 different screen sizes: 100 minus, 50 minus and 25 minus. Samples from each of the 5 different locations resulted in the detection of visible metallics while 1 of the locations resulted in the detection of visible metallics and gold, as outlined in the table below.

Photos of the visible gold and metallics can be viewed on Liberty Gold's website at http://www.libertygoldcorp.com/gallery/visible-gold
